  • Yeah, similar to someone I know, who knew they were on their way out regardless of any dumb stunts.

    People calling them stupid are automatically assuming the worst of them based on one piece of evidence.

  • Idk if even they have understood the position they're taking.

    Their "Why should I be barred from taking advantage of anything that might benefit me?"

    vs

    Your "I am have nothing to give and no way to meaningfully help, so I'll stay out."

    Is very telling.

  • Can you even be both pagan and Satanic?

    "He's a mumbling pagan, Satanic, Jewish, Mexican, Socialist, Antifa, Chinese..." Beyond all the social abuses, I hate MAGA and right-wing pundits because they've robbed words of meaning, on a scale that forces adjustment unlike anything else.

  • AI slop

    Jump
  • Eh, it's consistent because it's not entirely right.

    "Slop" was a term for pointless, shitty, "earn a quick buck"-motivated commodities way before AI kicked open the door. A synonym with "schlock."

  • I don't understand why we let Civ get away with amputating gameplay from the end-of-lifecycle previous game to repackage as new DLC again? If they hit upon great ideas in an expansion, why is that not folded into the core product like most decent games do with sequels?

    They started with a triangle for 6, slowly carved it down to a semi-smooth, functional circle, then turned around for 7 and said "how about a cube this time?" Stop reinventing the wheel and finish refining it.

    Honestly, the development mirrors my playthroughs of 4Xs: start with something funky and a lil different, struggle to make it work, and then restart when I'm close to done.

  • You speak about people reflexively picking their teams. But what about people that reflexively put everyone they meet on teams?

    I hold no allegiance to Team Testosterone but, if everyone who sees me says, "oh, yeah, you're Team Testosterone. And also I know everything I need to know about you now." It gets a bit grating.

    It is safer for vulnerable people to make those assumptions and I won't begrudge them their safety. But I don't have to like how it invalidates the lifetime of interactions I've had and I won't feel compelled to laugh when a offhand joke necessarily implicates me because of the team I've been assigned to.

  • Probably wouldn't, but some might be a bit miffed if someone said "shame men love crashing planes". Even though it's true most commercial pilots are men, so most plane crashes are done by men.
