I’m trying to pin down the canon population of Drinax in Pirates of Drinax / Mongoose Traveller 2E.

The UWP for Drinax is A43645A-E, with PBG 714, which seems to imply a total population of 70,000. But the setting text often frames Drinax as essentially the Floating Palace, while also mentioning Vespexer tribes living on the ruined surface.

So what is the canon breakdown?

Is it:

1. 70,000 total, with almost all of them on the Floating Palace and only an unspecified number of Vespexers on the surface?
2. 70,000 on the Floating Palace, plus additional surface Vespexers?
3. Something else from another sourcebook or errata?

I’m especially looking for printed canon citations, not just reasonable GM estimates.

Why this pic?

"Because Thunderstruck is built around the idea of being hit by overwhelming electric energy, so I leaned into the most literal visual metaphor: lightning, thunder, and a loud rock stage.

The main choices were:

The guitarist in the schoolboy-style outfit is a clear nod to AC/DC’s stage identity without trying to make an exact portrait.

The huge lightning bolts represent the “thunderstruck” feeling, like the music itself is electrified.

The rain, dark sky, smoke, and stage lights give it that big, chaotic, stadium-rock intensity.

The crowd with raised hands sells the concert energy and makes it feel like a live AC/DC-style performance rather than just a storm scene.

The black SG-style guitar and amp stacks reinforce the hard rock sound: simple, loud, aggressive, and iconic."

Generate a pic based on the beetles song yellow submarine

Why this pic?

"I interpreted “Yellow Submarine” as a bright, playful underwater fantasy rather than a literal still from the Beatles film.

The main choices were:

The yellow submarine is the focal point because the song is built around the simple image of everyone living together in a yellow submarine.

The underwater world is colorful and exaggerated because the song has a childlike, singalong quality, and the 1960s Beatles era is strongly associated with psychedelic pop art.

The musical notes, cheerful fish, bubbles, coral, and friendly sea creatures are there to make it feel like a musical underwater journey, not just a realistic submarine scene.

The people inside are generic, not the Beatles, because I was aiming for a song-inspired image rather than copying the band members or recreating copyrighted film characters directly.

So the picture is basically: “the feeling of the song” as a whimsical 1960s-style underwater adventure."

Generate a pic based on the Garth Brook Song - The Thunder Rolls

Why this pic?

"Because I was aiming for the song’s core story rather than a literal portrait of Garth Brooks.

The image pulls from the main mood of “The Thunder Rolls”: a stormy night, a woman waiting at home, a man arriving late, tension in the house, and the thunderstorm acting like a symbol for the emotional storm. So I used:

A rainy farmhouse window to show the domestic side of the story.

A woman watching from inside to represent suspicion, hurt, and the “she knows” feeling.

A pickup truck coming home in the storm to suggest the late-night return.

Lightning and heavy rain to make the thunder feel almost like a character in the scene.

The framed couple photo is there to hint at the damaged relationship without spelling everything out.

I avoided showing anything too explicit or violent because the song has dark implications, especially depending on the version, and I kept it more atmospheric and story-driven."

"Generate a pic of the "Hotel California" as depicted in the song"

why this picture? - "I aimed for the song’s overall feeling rather than a literal hotel from real life.

The choices were based on the main imagery and mood people associate with “Hotel California”:

The dark desert approach is there because the song begins with a traveler on a desert highway at night.

The warm glowing hotel is meant to feel beautiful and inviting at first, but not entirely safe. That fits the song’s mix of luxury, temptation, and unease.

The Spanish/mission-style architecture and palms are meant to read as “California” without copying a specific real hotel or album cover.

The lone traveler, car, and suitcase are there to make it feel like someone has just arrived and is about to enter the trap.

The chandeliers, lit windows, and rich interior details are meant to suggest decadence, excess, and the strange high-class party atmosphere in the song.

The blue/orange lighting, wind-blown palms, and mist are there to push the surreal, haunted mood: attractive from a distance, but something is wrong.

I avoided putting actual lyrics, Eagles branding, or a copy of the album art into it. So it is more “the hotel as the song feels” than a strict illustration of any one line."

This is not what r/ChatGPT is for

I get that image generation is fun, but half the sub lately feels like people are just trying to turn r/ChatGPT into a political prompt machine, scandal-board, or outrage farm.

That is not really what this place is supposed to be for.

Talk about ChatGPT. Share useful prompts. Discuss model behavior. Ask questions. Post weird outputs. Compare features. Complain about limits if you want. But flooding the sub with Epstein bait, Israel/Palestine bait, and “make this more controversial” image requests just turns the whole place into noise.

Anyway, I made this as a satirical version of what the sub feels like some days. And will attempt to post daily.

Prompt used:

Create an ultra-wide satirical editorial cartoon of the subreddit r/ChatGPT as a chaotic Reddit-style control room. Anonymous Reddit avatars are flooding the room with repetitive political image prompts, scandal-bait prompts, argument threads, and “try again” requests.

The scene should feel like absurd internet chaos, not hateful or graphic. Show floating comment bubbles, upvote and downvote arrows, locked-thread icons, warning banners, and image-generation-limit popups. In the center, place a large pinned moderator notice with clear readable text:

“This is not what r/ChatGPT is for.”

Under it, add a smaller readable line:

“Discuss ChatGPT. Don’t spam rage-bait prompts.”

In the background, tired moderator robots clean up the mess with digital brooms while a glowing ChatGPT logo looks overwhelmed. Sharp editorial cartoon style, high detail, modern internet culture satire, dramatic lighting, no real people, no explicit imagery, no hate symbols, no graphic content, no direct accusations.

Format: ultra-wide 21:9 cinematic composition.
