* E!22 explored the fall from grace of the House of Saud, which left them as [[PuppetKing puppet kings]] of Neom, but E!2150 explains what eventually became of them. Their particular brand of Islamic fundamentalism wound up acquiring an emphasized HeManWomanHater aspect, which, after several decades, finally reached its logical conclusion: the House of Saud removing the need for women altogether by adopting ManlyGay as the norm and perpetuating the bloodline via... ''[[MisterSeahorse creative]]'' application of modern technology. By that point, even the rest of Neom stops paying much attention to their ex-overlords.

* There's a strange sort of BlackComedy in the reason why [[OrnamentalWeapon the revolvers that the MarsCom Disciplinary Court use as gavels]] are now [[ObviousRulePatch required to be fully non-functional]]. Once, an old judge delivered his verdict a little too firmly and accidentally caused a round from the Red-Blue War, which was still in his gun after all those years, [[IJustShotMarvinInTheFace to be fired straight into his own chest.]] That's not the funny part. The funny part is that ''[[CrossesTheLineTwice he was commuting a death sentence.]]''

* In the comments to one recent post, someone asked Ryzov what [[BrandX Chead]] tastes like. The response? [[ShapedLikeItself "Chead."]]

* Thanks to the way in which they went about {{Terraforming}} the place, Ganymede's atmosphere is 1.5% sulfur hexafluoride, a gas which works a bit like helium, but in the opposite direction - that is, it makes your voice sound deeper. The small proportion in the air is enough to have an effect, but not an immediately noticeable one...

** Everything involving the Red Katipuneros is a mix of funny and weirdly heartwarming. A Red-aligned militia of "radicalized theater kids," led by musical-obsessed {{Cloudcuckoolander}} of a RebelLeader Karen Bondoc, the [=RKs=] [[ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything spend less time actually fighting against the authorities]] in their home colony (the Filipino-descended Rizalia) and more time organizing elaborate "revolutionary" musical theater numbers. They're such a JokeCharacter amongst the Reds that the Blue-run government of Rizalia doesn't even bother cracking down on them, instead letting them draw prospective Reds away from more dangerous groups. [=UniFor=] generally ignores them, and most Reds [[NoTrueScotsman scorn them]] as "[=LARPers=]." And yet in spite of all this, when Falco gets shot at Petra-3, it's Karen Bondoc and the [=RKs=] who [[LetsGetDangerous spring into action]], [[BewareTheSillyOnes cutting off the perpetrators' escape route and thus ensuring their capture]]. In helping to save the peace treaty, the Red Katipuneros win over their former detractors, and they're welcomed home as heroes.

* There's a number of funny bits in the Port Dread lore document, but perhaps the funniest is the description of the neighborhood of Sir Anthony. What is Sir Anthony known for? [[CosplayCafe Maid cafes.]] Maid cafes that are ''incredibly'' SeriousBusiness, to the point where the Dreadite {{Yakuza}} ''stay out'' of Sir Tony, because, as Ryzov puts it, "some of these maids are much more gangster than they are." One could be forgiven for mistaking it for an ''Anime/AkibaMaidWar'' reference, were it not for the fact that a) the maid cafes are less Japanese-styled and more TheThemeParkVersion of old-timey England, and b) ''The Terror Moon'' was posted in December 2020, and Ryzov thus beat Creator/PAWorks to the punch by a solid year and a half.
