  • Heya, I'd love to follow up with you on some of this stuff. This actually isn't accurate for the current understanding of addiction. Substance use disorders are more than just dependence, tolerance, and withdrawal. There are a number of other factors that constitute "addiction" (aka, SUDs). Check out the DSM criteria for cannabis use disorder for starters.

    It turns out that, while not medical emergency level akin to ethanol or benzo w/d, cannabis does have some seriously addictive properties.

    Really the trouble is that we misunderstand addiction itself. It's not about chemicals. It's about context, and overall life functioning.

  • They're fucking terrible. Money grubbing pig of a studio releases broken games for the users to fix for free, and they gobble it up because omg open world! With bland, generic combat, mundane repeatable quests, and the illusion of choice and creativity.

    Honestly the Elder Scrolls world really just deserved better. Better teams, better design, better releases, a world actually fleshed out. But instead we get this garbage.

  • thanks for posting. I have learned to deal with clickbait like this: if the title presents a provocative question that could be answered in the title but instead requires clicking to get a simple answer, it's clickbait. they don't get my clicks.

    "ONE SIMPLE TRUTH ABOUT HUMANITY!"

    we don't like being excluded. okay cool gotcha.

  • it's okay to hate bodies that dont conform to the fantasy standard, didn't you get that memo?

    it's also fine to hate addicts and neurodivergents and anyone that suffers consequences from behavioral patterns, because anything short of perfection is shit, dontchaknow. god i hate myself
