Blocking annoying emails doesn't seem to work once they start using multiple accounts. I might actually have to reply now. I know this bit's is in jest, but it really seems off.

"You haven't responded to our emails yet, and we are starting to worry about you. Do you need us to contact emergency services for you?"
I don't know what you mean by annoying emails, but.  They really can't do that, emergency services people can levy hefty fines for false alarms.  At least in the US, any call to 911 is recorded so they'll know it wasn't you.

I would strongly consider not replying to whoever this is.  Responding to spammers in any way will make them go "oh, this is a real person" and triple their efforts to annoy you.  If this is not a spammer but in fact someone you know... you don't need to know them anymore.  The multiple accounts thing is already ridiculous.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

The 40k universe started out as a massive parody anyway, so why not. This looks pretty funny.

Lol the mechanicus girl has gears for shoulder padding.  Its so cute, because they tried to keep it kid-safe.  Just give her the bionic arm; thats exactly the kind of play kids would engage in anyway.  In fact, it looks like her upper arm is in fact a tube thats painted the color of her flesh, that kind of morphs back into a human arm to make a hand.   So that she can use her pip-boy, apparently.

Make it like the Famous Five but set in 40K. Or they can make Skippy the Squiq, featuring a young Ork boy and his clever squiq.

I've complained here before, but this has been going on for several weeks now. I don't know them, but this isn't just random spam; they've mentioned my name in the emails and where they've found my email address from. My personal, "professional" email is listed on a few sites I'm required to use for school.

what do they want?  I mean, maybe refusing their services, and offers to contact equally unrequired medical service-providers, would do the trick?

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Lol the mechanicus girl

Dude, that dude's a dude.

Also, hmm... Tom Huddleston... Oh yeah, that's some dude who wrote a few Star Wars books. So at least there are some serious writing chops behind the project.

He's got no serious writing chops, his credentials are all about taking a setting and watering it down to be palatable to parents who want their kids to enjoy a violent setting without violence

Scroll down to "meet the characters", it gives a quick description of the major players. And apparently Martians are Finnish, because "Mekki" strikes me as something a Finn would be named...

I wouldn't generally consider "some dude who wrote a couple Star Wars books" to be the equivalent of "serious writing chops", is what I'm saying. I also don't tend to use the phrase "serious writing chops" in any serious manner, but that's another matter.

Huh. Zelia's mother hated weapons. In 40k land. As what seems to be reading as a rogue trader or something close to it, that was actively hunting up xenotech.

... how did she survive long enough to have kids, exactly?
