Francis is out doing dad things, and Nate is covering down with a weird one out of left field. This week, Nate and special guest Riley Quinn (@raaleh) of Trashfuture Podcast discuss a looming horror in the distance: Donald Trump fans’ weird crossover with the Warhammer 40k universe. Riley explains what ‘grimdark’ is, why the fash seem to love slapping Trump’s head on the Emperor of All Mankind, and why gatekeeping fan subcultures can get weaponized very easily. The article from The Mary Sue that Nate mentions is available here: https://www.themarysue.com/warhammer-40k-fandom-fascism/ This week’s bonus features Francis and Cynthia discussing the 1979 time-travel novel KINDRED by Octavia Butler. Did you know that changing history isn’t as easy as just smiting Baby Hitler? Does it seem outlandish to learn that time-travel while Black is something of a challenge?
