Dark plans fall like thunderbolts.
Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly 100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.

Panel 1
Kofi,
Kofi: Would we trade our essential liberty for some temporary safety? CAN we?
Kofi: That's the 64,000-Moebit question, isn't it? And I don't mean just for we assembled here.
Kofi: How easily can our people generally be terrorized into surrendering to oppression?
Panel 2
Sheldon pontificates
Sheldon: To the extent we have nurtured a culture of resilience, we have a bit of breathing room.
Sheldon: But that can evaporate quickly if we are shown to be incapable of defending the city.
