Dune lore is fucking insane. I just finished the first book, and have concluded that Frank Herbert is a goddamn genius.

20,000 years in the future.

Matriarchal cult of eugenisist space-nuns with weird psychic powers

Houses that resemble the royalty of medieval earth, all still obsessed with power and profit over everything else

complex religions with clear inspirations of real-world present religions (specifically catholicism and islam)

Human supercomputers?? that are also assassins??

A prison planet that creates supersoldiers by killing the weak to filter out the strongest

the main villain being the physical embodiment of sin (gluttony, lust, greed)

politics. holy war. oppression of native peoples. false prophets. cults. drugs. worms.

and that just scratches the surface. theres five more books…

House Harkonnen reporting in! 💰 https://keyrelic.etsy.com

Solid Bronze Harkonnen Ram Artisan Keycap with RGB shine through eyes.

A homage to Dune II and Dune 2000 games from legendary Westwood studio. Dune II was a precursor for Real-Time Strategy games. For many, those games were the first contact with the Dune Universe and they still have a special place in our hearts.

House Harkonnen, also known as the Family Harkonnen, was a Great House of the Landsraad, with their capital on the heavily industrialized Giedi Prime. The Harkonnens were the historical enemies of House Atreides of Caladan, with whom they maintained an ancient feud since the Battle of Corrin. They also came to be recognized for their underhanded and sinister political tactics, fueled by ambition, malevolence, hatred, and brutality. ⚜️Great for collectors: can be passed down from generation to generation.

Me, drinking my second energy drink of the day at 4am: It is by will alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of Guava that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.

Fast, effective, highly skilled, very intelligent with mentat abilities, and a low moral compass. You pay, he kill.

La serie "Dune" es conocida por su riqueza filosófica, y "Hijos de Dune" no es la excepción. Este libro te invita a reflexionar sobre temas complejos como el poder, la libertad, la predestinación y la ética. Es una obra que te desafía a pensar y a cuestionar el mundo que te rodea.

Dune part 2 is out! (I still need to go see it). I have been a fan of the books since middleschool, and adore the admittedly bad lynch adaptation. I watched part one and thought it was alright, I want to see where they take it.

This a piece I did a while back, I still like its vibes for being old. Not a character from the media, just a random Mentat. I think I named him Aanimi Discite.
