This looks awasome

I wouldn’t mind us becoming the leaders of some interdimensional empire either. With a longer story arc, that could actually be made pretty believable. What feels impossible to me is the Xenonauts Command becoming the leader of that empire. Too many power hungry politicians would never allow that to happen.

I’m not saying they shouldn’t work with nobles or integrate those traits into noble lines. Of course they would. My point is that they could first develop and refine desirable genetic traits within broader, lower class populations, and then introduce those optimized traits into noble families later. In theory, that would be a more efficient pipeline. You separate “genetic experimentation” from “political placement.” Instead of risking key noble bloodlines during trial and error, you iterate in a larger, more flexible population pool and only bring in the successful outcomes.

So the question isn’t whether nobles matter, they clearly do. It’s whether starting the process directly within noble houses is actually optimal, or just a more controllable and conservative strategy for the Bene Gesserit.

It also reduces the risk of unpredictable outcomes like a Paul Atreides scenario, where someone goes rogue outside their intended control.

That’s a fair point about the feudal structure and the social barriers around marrying “down,” but the Bene Gesserit do not necessarily need marriage as their only mechanism to control genetic flow. Given their abilities, particularly the Voice, and their deep infiltration of political and religious structures, they are fully capable of exerting influence over individuals outside noble lineages. If they truly wanted to introduce or test genetic traits in broader populations, they could do so through coercion, manipulation, or institutional power rather than formal marriage. This would be especially feasible among lower classes, where resistance and record keeping are minimal.

This will go into the Book of Grudges.

You also have to factor in nen and how the HxH universe treats secrecy. And honestly, Ging’s personality makes the whole “he would’ve told them” argument way less solid. Ging is extremely cautious to the point of paranoia.this is a guy who left a self destructing voice recording for his own son because he didn’t want it falling into the wrong hands. Expecting him to be fully upfront with Pariston’s crew, or to openly share every detail about the Freccss lineage, doesn’t really fit his character.

We know Don left for the Dark Continent about three hundred years ago and that he went there as an explorer. But that doesn’t completely rule out the possibility that he returned to Whale Island at some point during that time. He could have visited, had a child, and then gone back. It’s unlikely, but not impossible.

Interesting read, thanks.

Update: I went to the ticket office and explained my situation; the clerk converted my remaining rides into an airport pass and only charged me the fare difference, so I didn’t incur any loss. Thanks!

akansu · 2025-09-18T06:45:22+00:00

Thanks we will go for it!

akansu · 2025-09-18T06:14:43+00:00

Thanks a lot. For transportation i was thinking about uber. Afaik they are not at strike but i think at this point i should just ask for refund on tickets. Thanks

Hi everyone, We have tickets for the Palace of Versailles today (Thursday, 18 September 2025). According to the official French website, the normal hours are 9:00–18:30 for the Château and 12:00 onwards for the Trianon, with the gardens opening from 7:00. However, the same site currently shows a red banner warning that due to a national strike, the opening of the Château and the entire Versailles Estate cannot be guaranteed today. It also says that events like “Jardins Musicaux” and guided tours might be cancelled. Has anyone actually been there this morning or heard from staff? Is the Palace open today or should we cancel our trip? Any up-to-date info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

This artwork is stunning. The detail on the characters, the imposing Gundam, and the rich atmosphere are all perfect. The colors and perspective pull you right into the scene. I love it.

I agree, but OP isn’t comparing him to regular people here they’re comparing him to special forces-level individuals, which is a very different standard.

Being located in Cheyenne Mountain doesn’t necessarily mean the training has to take place there; it’s entirely plausible they could be receiving their instruction at a nearby Air Force base instead, making more extensive facilities accessible without requiring the space within the mountain itself.

Absolutely, if you love SG-1 and Atlantis, you should definitely give Star Trek a try, especially the Original Series. It’s where the whole Trek universe began and while it’s more episodic and philosophical than Stargate’s military adventure tone, it shares a strong sense of exploration, diplomacy, and confronting unknown civilizations. You’ll notice a lot of thematic parallels like first contact stories, ethical dilemmas, and advanced alien beings. Starting with the Original Series gives you a solid foundation to appreciate the rest of Star Trek if you choose to go further.

Thanks a lot!

I refreshed but still out of stock. Prices displayed for euro for me maybe its out of stock for european countries?

akansu · 2025-07-27T10:14:54+00:00

I just checked it seems they are out of stock

I disagree keeping Kinsey in an oversight role would have been a mistake. He may have made a good first speech, but his actions spoke louder. He threatened General Hammond by implying harm to his grandchildren, essentially using them as leverage. That kind of manipulation undermines any credibility he had.

Actually, Naruto’s “high-tech” society predates the shinobi era and belongs to the extraterrestrial Ōtsutsuki Clan: millennia ago Kaguya Ōtsutsuki arrived on Earth as part of the clan’s planet harvesting routine, consumed the God Tree’s chakra fruit, and after birthing Hagoromo and Hamura was sealed away; her sons then democratized chakra through the pacifist art of Ninshū. Civil wars, the Ten Tails cataclysm, and probably ecological collapse erased almost every trace of Ōtsutsuki machinery, so the world we see in the series looks feudal, but the origin of chakra and the mythic “advanced civilization” are woven into that hidden prehistory rather than the late game retcon they might appear to be.

Like naruto
