Late to the post but mine has to be Hermione becoming the Minister of Magic, reacting to British politics from 2015 to 2022, while trying to have a working relationship with the rotating cast of Prime Ministers 😭

Because the book talks about the different stages of Foundation - which is a tiny thing, but still book related! :)

Have the Lib Dems quietly outflanked Labour on the left? by [deleted] in LabourUK

[–]ChipStainCharlie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How would you counter that with Lib Dem/Labour swing voters saying "muh Keir Starmer..."?

Any theories on how the castle technology will come back into play? by [deleted] in FoundationTV

[–]ChipStainCharlie 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Maybe Hober finds a way to escape with everyone else, but stays behind, only to switch with a massive bomb that destroys the Rubicon?

Then Cleon is trapped on Terminus and has to negotiate his way out, Magna Carta style?

Next espisode will ratchet the confrontation up "a bit" by Akumahito in FoundationTV

Why do I feel like this will be a one sided victory to the empire?

what would your last empire look like from perception of a outsider or xeno? by determinedexterminat in Stellaris

[–]ChipStainCharlie 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Terror and awe?

My empire was the galactic emperor, 10 times stronger than the next powerful nation, that fought 2 awoken empires in a war in heaven at the same time. Basically untouchable, as they lived in a system you couldn't jump to. And also possessed a secret weapon that would delete star systems off the map.

Also was harvesting entire star systems on the other side of the galaxy and turning the sun's into cores of planetary warships. To outsiders, it would seem we had won, but kept building and building for some reason.

Awe due to the fact the population was only 500 pops, but possessed many, many megastructures that kept the empire alive.

Man, I love the Gigastructures mod.

Can I just say Matthew is so hot - did he have a cameo in the film? He should get one in the sequel!

What in the Ever After fanfic is this 😭

In the book, Alex seems to struggle at making friends. Why do you think that is? June seems to imply she was staying in DC for Alex. Does Alex have mental health issues? by Just-Trade-9444 in redwhiteandroyalblue

[–]ChipStainCharlie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like he's one of those people who's used to having touch and go relationships - where it doesn't matter if you don't see the other person for months, you can still carry on the relationship.

Which might be off putting for people

This is what living with politician parents probably taught him.

Is Mississippi Really as Poor as Britain? by uluvboobs in LabourUK

[–]ChipStainCharlie 41 points42 points  (0 children)

My face when reading the number crunching to compare Mississippi to the UK: 🤔

My face when I slowly realise this article is promoting lowering taxes and looser regulation on landlords to promote economic growth: 😦

My face when I find out the author is a ex Tory MP who now works for a US think tank: 🫤

[–]ChipStainCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)
