2020 wasn't the worst year of my life, but it wasn't a good one either. The WuFlu threw off everything, and coupled with other things outside of my control (as well as a brief hospital stay), things I wanted to get done didn't. We'll recitify that soon.
This year has been full of suck and blow and that was on the good days. Some of that has turned to the good--the collapse of DC Comics, Hollywood's theater (real estate) business, the Big Five became the Big Four, indie SF seriously taking off--but much of it was not as the massive destruction of small business and retail-based operations outside Big Corporate Franchises show whenever you get out of your houses and look around the area.
The power grab Corona-chan enabled is far from over, but the resistance is building; we're looking at Prohibition-era levels of utter disrespect for law and government.
We're looking at a remix of the 20th Century, folks. 100 years ago was a very turblulent time as instabilities caused by World War I produced effects with consequences we're still dealing with now, such as Communism being a thing at all and the rise of the Cult of Democracy. It was the time of rising gangsterism in the US and political instability across the globe.
Fortunately the historically-literate are not just aging cripples in wheelchairs like me. They include people with agency and power, like the God-Emperor (soon to begin his second term), and I doubt we'll see the Globohomo elite get their third World War (which they use to cover up their reset of the fake and gay economy they use to control us) due to that very opposition. So no, I don't fear The Great Reset because it's not going to happen.
2020 sucked harder than a black hole, but the Spanish Flu it is not. It'll be fine in time, so calm thy tits and focus on dealing with the overreach from the tyrants.
To send off 2020 on a good note, here's the Pundit talking about long D&D campaigns (and promoting his new gonzo fantasy setting).
And the Black Pants Legion with one final shitpost for the year.
And being that it is Thursday, that means the final Sabaton History episode of the year is now live. Enjoy.
Not gonna lie: DC comics burning down will probably work out in the long run. Let people discover other characters and archetypes influenced by the old. All it took was Bendis shitting all over Superman for me to finally leave the "Established IP" plantations. They aren't even worth pirating to make fun of now. I have my phsycial copies of Lois and Clark: TNAOS, the animated series and the Reeves movies (1 and 2) Ill be content with that while I make my own IP.
