I switched to just using Brave's built-in search and results are pretty much like old Google minus diversity

If you have not read "Mote in the God's eye" and "The Gripping hand" you should do so now. Its one of the best first contact stories ever told, even though its set very late the Jerry Pournelle CoDominium universe (where USA and Soviet Union merged on Earth to form world government, which seems silly now), the pure space operaness of it is out of this world... It has jump points, ships with giant shields that take damage until they explode, diving inside the star to hide, space marines, psychic powers and and ... well read for yourself. Basically I feel like a lot of modern sci-fi literature and games like Eve Online or Stellaris can trace their origins to tech described in this series

P.S. Like John Ringo, Pournelle has a big hard-on for Sparta and/or Roman legions aesthetics, I think empire capital is even called New Sparta there.. Add Sparta/Rome in space + the great way Niven is able to write weird aliens, and you got a masterpiece

Man I have plans to start identifying as a bearded transmasculine women, but just keep chickening out on pulling the trigger. Coz you can't do it half way and give even a hint that you kidding, have to go all in, serious like. "No I don't plan to do any surgeries, or take hormones, I'm happy with how I look. Implying that a masculine presenting woman is not a real woman is hurtful and is a microaggression"

I always liked "artsy" anime with existential theme thus you must watch these:

Cassern Sins

Ergo Proxy

Count of Monte Cristo

Also you should watch Legend of a Galactic Heroes, you will have to force feed yourself first few episodes to get past 1980 era animation and yellow text, but then you won't even notice them, coz you'll be engrossed by the story.

Man i was never a beleiver in depopulation conspiracy before.

But this is insane, they are really hellbent on getting this into children. Today 10y olds will be 19 in 2030. I just don't get it. Is it just profits for pharma? But if so, why they are prosecuting pharmacists who inject saline instead of the jab? Phizer gets paid anyway. They really want this shit in everyone.

I'm starting to believe 2030 reduce population by 90% thing and it fucking scares me

Man imagine having to work with that on your team. Every interaction a mine field. Or if you a woman, finding that smug face in your bathroom, and having to pretend to engage it "girl" talk with them

I feel like Funimation actually muches off the fan manga scanslationors. Every new anime they picked up just happens to be a manga adaptation with pre-existing good quality fan translation. Even tho I can't understand Japanese for shit, I feel like I would be able to produce anime subs for a manga based anime, just by matching scenes to the manga
