@DavoustBaldPate @faolchdragan @DougWhiddo69434 @jondelarroz @ark_press @BaenBooks @DavidJohnButler Then shouldn't you be Davout's Bald Pate? Also, I doubt the Iron Marshal would have time to quibbble on the internet, even if her were still with us.

@faolchdragan @DavoustBaldPate @DougWhiddo69434 @jondelarroz @ark_press @BaenBooks @DavidJohnButler Being fair--none of us young'uns who write for Baen are big names. Being more fair--well, duh.

Couldn't agree more. The folks who take Larry, or David Weber, or whoever writing with other companies as a sign of doom don't seem to remember just how many publishers guys like Heinlein, Pournelle, Niven, etc. had. Writers having lots of options was, and should be again, normal.

Can't wait to read this one.
I'm so excited to bring you this book. This one is for anyone who has ever been told "you aren't enough..." PS. They lied.

Get some, PDM.
Deathbringer TTRPG will be the first to codify “once a game is in session, no one may pause to look up a rule. The GM’s judgement supersedes ALL written rules.” We’re not landing a 747. If Magic missile does d8 damage for a session, no one will get hurt.

@WarpCordova Hmmm, dunno about that one. I do know, "allow me to be clear," means, "what the fuck did you not understand about the last email? I thought it was plain English."

No, it wouldn't. It would only require us to rebuild our own industrial plant, maintain enough military capacity to defend ourselves and a few countries that benefit us, and maintain a sane immigration policy. There's literally no resource in Europe we can't rebuild here. Frankly, while there's pain and suffering involved, there are very few resources anywhere we couldn't, given time and necessity, rebuild here.

Even if Europe continues on that trajectory, America is clearly not on that flight path. While we are not without demographic problems, we're not in the same boat as, say, Germany, and none of our demographic groups that ARE reproducing are going to tolerate shit like that happening writ large in America.

@dbroussa @TKratman @Jringo1508 @WittenBippens I'll confess they're better equipped for that, but given that the shale revolution is breaking the bankroll for Islamist terrorism and simultaneously disincentivizing direct involvement in the region on our part... I don't think they'll do that either.
