The siege of Freeside had been going on for at least two weeks once the Legion had conquered Camp McCarran.
The Kings had held up decently, reluctantly forming an emergency alliance with the NCR as soon as the Legion had begun invading the Strip.
Remaining NCR MPs and Troopers caught in the Strip had been forced into a desperate holdout with them as ceaseless artillery bombardment (from howitzers and field mortars in the Strip, the Dam and Nellos AFB,) Vertibird runs and the rare appearance of the Boomers’ rebuilt B-29 bomber rained death from above.
Old Mormon Fort had become an impromptu field hospital, with Follower doctors making do with dwindling supplies and increasing numbers of injured civilians and soldiers, all the while praying that the next salvo of artillery wasn’t aimed at them (sometimes it was.)
The Legion was simply waiting for Freeside to starve and capitulate.
Then it would conquer.

Star Bomber (Bomberman Land Touch! 2)
Bomberman designs are just so much fun. I chose to draw Star Bomber because I really enjoyed the game he debuted in.

its so stupid to me when someone goes up to somebody (recently in the inboxes of palestinians doing their damndest to share information about whats going on with the genocide of their own people and some of yall still cant take being spoon fed this as if its the worst thing to happen to you to just pay attention (but it happens also after any catastrophe yall just rock up to anyone you judge an affected minority be it someone of another race, culture, gender, sexuality w/e)) and you ask "well who should i vote for"
thats your choice
when you turned 18 in the us of a you gained the right to choose whoever the hell you want on the ballot for president. nobody can make you vote for somebody or withold it. you make that decision. you should be able to think for yourself. do some research and stop talking out of your ass because that is literally the least you could do.
and also you shouldn't be going to someone (especially someone who this is of he least concern of) and go "well what do you think i think i have to vote for x because *despite every atrocity they've ever comitted* theyre still better than the other guy!" because what do you want? forgiveness? you made a choice. you also just told somebody that this choice WILL AFFECT that it was the only choice available to you (even though it wasnt). and then act like they should be grateful. like you're doing them a favor.
