If this is real and not a writing experiment, you probably have a mental illness. You should see a doctor.

I always thought he was known for fictional war writing like Tom Clancy
I think you’re thinking of someone else, pretty sure he doesn’t do this.
Female Bender [not hard].
What’s with atlatls trending atm, is there some spear throwing shit going on on TikTok or something?
Seems legit, definitely a woman and definitely not a propaganda account.
Did you read the article?
Is this really all you took away from this article? The point of the article isn’t at all “Warhammer is fascist”, it’s a nuanced look at how the presentation and consumption of the product has evolved over time.
Did you read the article? It explicitly discusses this point and how the presentation of it has changed over time.

This isn’t 80s music, please don’t post this here.
It touches on how anime influences real-life travel.
I mean it’s not a big deal, but that definitely doesn’t fall under the concept of world building, imo.
As per the message I sent, I’ll volunteer to take over as mod.

I admit I only read the summary but, despite having it in the title, this doesn’t seem relevant to this sub? Am I missing something?
For it to make any sense you really need to think through the timeline of both things and how they interact.
When were they learned and what did that process look like? If magic is just some inherent force that people can use innately, did that remove the motivation to study science? Or at least to find applied uses for science, for things that magic can already do?
What is the relative effort of achieving things with magic vs science (including the accumulated effort of discovering and researching how to do it)? Nobody is going to spend the time and money to build a scientific solution if someone can just wave their hand and achieve the same goal.
And the first questions is: how does science explain magic? What are the rules for magic, energy sources, limitations, etc
To make it interesting I think you need to have inherent limitations in magic that creates a niche for science, things that magic can’t do or that is very costly for magic to do. And then once you have a reason for science to be invested in, you have to consider the ways that magic can enhance the pursuit of science. You don’t need to invent microscopes if you can use magic to see tiny objects.
And then you have to consider the combinations of magic and science. What does warfare look like if you can use magic to teleport a nuclear warhead anywhere in the world? What does space exploration look like if you can use magic to create oxygen?
To do it with any kind of facade of realism is extremely complex, but presents a lot of opportunities for interesting and unique worldbuilding.
I don’t think there’s really any need to put the difficulty rating on them at all.
