Sometimes, you see a tag that you want to respond to, but you know you really shouldn't. For your character's sake. In completely unrelated news, I saw a Deadpool mouthing off about the X-Men.

See, to me, that just says stepping in with a terrible, terrible joke in response.

If it was ANYONE but Althea, probably. XD

See, she's so good with puns, though. She needs to start deploying them offensively, not just against her friends.

Also, the thread with Tesla has taken an odd turn, but I like it. I get to talk actual legit history.

To wit: "the Nazis were a bunch of goddamn idiots, but had REALLY good propagandists."

Hard part is keeping it in HIS voice, not mine.

Hahah, yeah, I really didn't expect the turn, she's just sort of musing/worrying about whether she'll get to live long enough to see good things happen, but isn't sure she should be saying that to a vampire XD

Ooof, yeah, I know that struggle. Sorry D:

I share his optimism overall, but in a "if global warming doesn't get us, we'll get there eventually" kinda way.

It's all dark right now because the world order established in 1945 is passing. With living memory so dim, of course the same things start to slip back under the door. But I think enough of us are ready for them.

To be someone who can actively create things to change/help the world must be kinda terrifying honestly. Especially when seeing some of the 'slip back' you mentioned.

I would imagine it is.

Fun aside: the tornado gun thing? That was real.

The Nazis wasted a chunk of cash getting scientists to build an actual, working vortex weapon.

To down airplanes.

That was only effective to 3,000ft.

When Allied bombers were operating over 20,000ft

Behold, stupidity in metal

That is amazingly sad, wow.

It's a sad trombone noise in physical form.

Hahahahahahah omg imagining that is actually fantastic.

But yeah, the entire "Nazi Science" thing is just a truckload of expensive failure that gets gussied up by popular culture.
