Billionaires should not be considered individuals when they have the resources to purchase plots of land larger than cities.

You.

I like you. Keep doing you.

This is so god damn sad

This is good, and I’m glad he’s being charged. I hope Norway continues this trend.

That being said, I feel like there’s something odd about being proud of charging a rapist (granted, he is a rapist in power so him being charged is a very good thing) when there are people like the former prime minister who probably raped kids.

Idk, it seems like a hollow victory — my sense of justice is telling me that so so much more needs to be done, and it needs to be done yesterday.

You think any of these 1000 pedos are Prince Andrew?

No. No they aren’t.

I think that romance in video games is… well it’s just like romance in any other medium. It exists to paint a picture in your head of what love looks like, because that’s something they can sell to you.

If you want a game with natural feeling, organic romance then that’s going to be the game. Full stop, simply having a cast of 10 characters already makes this very complicated.

You mean a dense protagonist harem anime?

Both things can be true: Kamala would have been a bad president, she would have been better than Trump.

About as comfortable as plastic wrapped in a thin sponge can be

I don’t disagree that comparing DMC and the old GOW games is fair — they occupy the same space. Reducing a soulslike to dodging and parrying is just wrong, though. Actually reducing a hack and slash to aggression and dodging is also wrong, see Royal Guard.

Freedom of movement, build options (you are free to turn yourself into the heaviest thing in existence compared to a gymnast, and that’s only discussing equip load), map design, the robust lore as opposed to a traditional narrative, these are staples of soulsbourne games. DMC3 has a harder parry than any soulslike in Royal Guard — does that make parrying a staple of the series? Yes, it does — Royal Guard is cool as shit.

Uh, while comparing DMC and GOW is wrong, calling GOW and over the shoulder soulslike is… almost more wrong.

That being said, Ragnarok was a step down from the first GOW reboot, with GOW being a great starting point with the promise of Ragnarok (which was just disappointing imo).

And the story… Jesus christ I would have preferred an absent soulslike story.

You toy with powers greater than any God, Jesus christ where are you getting the energy from?

that’s nearly the definition of fascism?

Yes, which is why they need to put this kind of disclaimer in their handbook — lest they end up with chuds like the Warhammer franchise. Those chuds being the ones that don’t understand that the Imperium is really bad.

I did not understand what had happened.

Maybe he shouldn’t be allowed to own guns, just a thought.

Would that mean acknowledging that my ignorance is less valuable than your wisdom?

Yes? Then yes, you are the only one — now stop being a pussy and take these shots, we have to deprogram the “empathy” out of you.

Explain the transphobia to me, in detail.

I think it’s easy to associate adhering to values with being unkind (those values could easily exhibit kindness, depending on what they are).

I just don’t believe you’re unkind. If you were, your values wouldn’t tell you that we should shut down power to a neighborhood for a cat. You would just think something like ‘glad that’s not my problem’ and move on. I don’t think that people who are unkind are bothered by things like this, because again ‘not my problem’. You have made it your problem by caring, and are thus precluded from being unkind (in my opinion).

It is easy to choose not to care about anything, it is very hard to care about everything. I myself am dealing with having learned to turn my heart off to certain things. Things that would just be too overwhelming to carry.

A friend of mine died recently and it was incredibly shocking. He was much younger than me, I guess he was driving too fast on his bike. One of my first thoughts was that I could have been kinder to him. Maybe if I’d reached out more, stayed more consistent in his life, maybe he would have stayed more tempered.

We can’t know what will happen to us nor the people around us. We can only dictate our words and actions. I, however, am much less kind than you — I hope that those who can’t be bothered to exhibit the slightest bit of empathy are cursed to suffer in the ways they’ve been overtly willing to ignore. I hope they experience what it is to decay and have the world fade around them.

It would be poetic. Aneurotypicality is not an excuse for callousness.

If that’s you trying to be nice you need to get some therapy.
