We're not entirely sure how we ended up in this situation, but somehow the HPG network is reliant on someone paying an original XBox live subscription each month.

It's listed on the spec sheet as a TAG unit mounted in the mech's head, but it's really just giving the pilot a laser pointer they can shine out of the cockpit window.

(This is how you get Blakists.)
Comstar has many powerful tools at its disposal. Direct intervention, interdiction, information warfare.

We, however, enjoy subtlety, like reminding the Captain General that we have his entire internet search history.

Experiment time: Taking five captured hyper competitive Smoke Jaguar pilots, forcing them into mechs with C3, and calling it the 'get along star.'

1. If I may toot my own horn here, when the history of 21st Century science fiction literature is written, the my contribution to it will be as the one who made humor in science fiction marketable again. When I started out, I was literally told it was difficult/impossible to sell SF as humor...
I can't imagine anyone who's read Starter Villain or The Moon Hits Your Eye doubting your chops as a humorist...

What better way to celebrate the 4th of July than by getting a bunch of my novels, with a big chunk of your purchase price going to World Central Kitchen, my selected charity for this bundle. Pay what you like (the more you pay, the more you get), and help feed people in need all over the world.
Immerse yourself in the rich sci-worlds of multiple Hugo Award–winning author John Scalzi with books short stories like:

- Old Man’s War
- Starter Villain
- Redshirts
- and more! Supports @wck.org | https://bit.ly/448EYpA

Recent Scalzi Family Foundation donations include the Bradford Food Bank, Fire Department and Library, plus clearing out any school lunch debt at the local school (which was not much but even so). We're a registered 501(c)(3), so our donations are publicly available information, as it happens.
Out of curiosity, what local things do you fund?

Whatever it is, good on ya for doing it. Small local organizations nearly always struggle for funding.

COOKIE REVIEW: Oreo BTS cookie with "brown sugar pancake" filling:

Not bad! Extremely sweet. The purple cookies don't particularly taste purple; I think they are probably the "Golden Oreo" formula with dye. Will probably plough through the package but will survive not getting any more after this.

For @aftermath.site, the Steam Machine costs too much money because of greedy freaks. But a community has formed around optimizing a low budget alternative made from failed PlayStation 5's that got turned into crypto mining cards and then resold as garbage. aftermath.site/bc250-steam-...

First full story sentence from an ongoing project for friends.

"You are Volt Valkyrie, Forge Labs' latest in their line of military reploids, produced under an ongoing contract to provide the Maverick Hunters with new operatives. "
Writers, share the first sentence of your WIP!

"I stand on blistered feet before the geographic center of the Yellowstone caldera, resolved and ready to change the world."

An OOC moment: I help run the Star League community and it's a privilege to know these people and be a part of making that community what it is. I'd recommend giving the interview a read on Sarna.
In a very special Pride edition of Community Outreach, Sarna speaks with the mod team of the Star League Discord! We talk about trans King Crabs, Rasalhaguian leather bars, and why the Magistracy of Canopus is the true center for human progress in the 32nd century.

NEW: Regulators have linked Mark McAfee’s raw dairy farm to more than a dozen recalls and outbreaks that left hundreds of people ill.

“I’ve put a couple kids in the hospital,” McAfee said. “But here’s the thing: I’m a pioneer.”
He Profits Off Raw Milk That's Making People Sick. The Government Isn't Stopping Him.
With Raw Farm, the largest raw-milk dairy in the country, Mark McAfee has capitalized on a once-fringe product that's been thrust into the mainstream in recent years and backed by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Please be advised that we are repainting mechs in mechbays nine through seventeen.

Please do not drink the paint water, we do not want a repeat of last time. I don’t care if you drink it at home, that shit isn’t on at Comstar.
