The relatively conventional SF navy or the weirdo magic users... I need to flesh out the Roseikoh some, but moving them outside the sci fi baseline runs some risks. But lets see if we can give both some love.

#JanuaryWorldbuilders! Today's military/warfare related Q: How does your world's military handle food and medical care for its soldiers? Do they have MREs, or the medieval equivalent? Supply lines? Foraging off the land? What kind of skills do the medics have?

"Diplomacy is the continuation of war by other means."

Maybe I'm cheating, but the Discovery War is a key setting piece, and while it's technically over I'd like to talk about it, how it affected both sides and the effect on Pendan today.

#JanuaryWorldbuilders We talked about weapons and armor, now for the wars. This week's worldbuilding questions are about your fictional world's wars and militaries. Today's Q: Are there any current wars in your WIP and is your MC involved?

Ooooh....

Spider is going to hit peaks and valleys. She's out of her depth at first, will start to adjust once she's found some time to center herself and can bring her skills/tech to bear...

Then the finale happens. And she is going to be Out Of Her Depth in an extremely literal sense. ^^

How out of their depth is your character during the story?

Are they an expert up against impossible odds? An enthusiastic amateur? Is all of this brand new to them and they are trying desperately to keep up?

Princess Tutu's ending was awful, embraces a fatalistic perspective in defiance of its own arc words, and ruined the show

Soul Eater's Anime Only Ending was perfect, my favourite part of the show and justified a frustrating watch at the last possible moment.

Entirely typical of the BBC's treatment of trans people that it presents Michael Foran, who is literally on the advisory Board of the Sex Matters hate group, as an independent expert.

Ohhh... this is an excuse for me to get into something fun. Because while conventional arms law on Pendan isn't that interesting, there's an aspect that I feel is a great question for high fantasy worldbuilding

How do you legislate the use of magic?

🧵
Good morning, #JanuaryWorldbuilders! What kind of laws exist regarding the use of weapons in your world? Can anyone use or carry them? Are they usable only by a certain class? Or only after you've been trained in its use? Are some weapons banned entirely?

Spider is extremely upset, fretting about her social life, regretting her life choices, and trying not to cry. She would bother the guard if that wasn't rude and might make this worse... somehow.

Lightning is trying not to laugh at Spider. She's just gonna get some rest. 'First time?'

1. In a major victory, Democrats have managed to get all anti-trans riders stripped from the final appropriations bills.

This includes HHS and Ed, which had the worst provisions in congressional history.

If it passes, it will be a big win for 2026.

A.I. is trained on a dataset. So even with the most optimistic take on the technology, you only get what's in the dataset. That dataset will have omissions and oversights. It won't cover obscure material. Which makes using it for research frecking stupid.
Suspect a HUGE issue with "A.i." summary tools is that they're full of mistakes that you'd only know if you already know the material. So people THINK it's helping when it's actually making them more ignorant.
I work mostly in non-profit database management, something AI should aid gracefully, and I genuinely gave LLM AI’s a shot in the first few months of all the hype, and it… can’t do anything. It’s also wrong about the historical topic I studied the most. But AI shills still love to tell me I’m naive…
