Life is getting dangerously close to being back under control again....how will this go wrong, I wonder?
Probably because people are fetishizing the stereotype of black men rather than the actual amount of melanin in their skin. That's my guess anyhow.
Is "It's the left and cancel culture's fault, I'm an asshole who did those things in the first place." Going to be the slogan now?
Here's a little trick to avoid "Triggering" anyone by getting caught doing shitty things. Don't do the thing.
I kind of want to pick up Hogrwats Legacy. As much as I don't respect the creator, I can still enjoy the universe.
Wait two days and get it pre-owned. Boom, you can play the game without putting money in a shitty person's pocket (well, not the very publicly notable shitty person, let's be realistic)
I didn't care for Rowling well before the actual controversy came out. Much of her writing seems more vindictive and petty to try and win any argument she was ever had, didn't endear me to her well before that point.
I feel as if we are witnessing the fall of the roman empire. And I'm not part of the side that's going to still be standing.
We reached the brink of nuclear war. It's uncertain if we can even expect next morning to come, but I truly value the friends I made here.
I hope cooler heads will prevail and it will not come to this but if it does.... it was a pleasure knowing you.
Thanks and I appreciate the sentiment. But I prefer for those acquaintanceships/friendships to continue on for a few more decades :) From what I know, only one side threatened a nuclear option o far... Starting this would be... well, you know Fallout games Franchise? They present somewhat positive outcome. Positive in a sense, that there is actually something left after the nuclear war.
I feel like these floods of jumpscare horror games that are just "Children's thing from childhood is evil=scary" needs to just die.
Yeah, at this point anything you could really meaningfully say with it has been said and it's just trying to slurp out whatever little milk is left in the FNAF tit.
How does playing chess actually translate to military strategy? I see that in a lot of media, but they never expand on actually how.
It's basically a narrative shortcut to show a character thinks "tactically". And also gives said character a chance to use cliche dialogue talking about "pawns" and what not.
And then there is Legend of the Galactic Heroes where the greatest tactician in the series is awful at chess
You should see the chess match from No Game No Life where the pieces have wills of their own and refuse to be sacrificed because virtually no one would obey an order that requires them to die, something chess doesn't take into account.
You know, I used to like the Joker and Harley Quinn...now I kind of hate seeming them appear in almost every dam DC thing.
The over saturation of the Joker in particular has me very... tired of him. Harley I kind of go back and forth on because now that she's basically DC's equivalent to Deadpool she can at least be placed in different dynamics so there's more you can do with her compared to Mr J.
The Joker kind of suffers from....how to put it....the idea is I'm going to go "Wow, he was behind it all! What a diabolical mastermind!" but it actually kind of has the opposite effect where I just stop caring explicitly because they make him behind everything that ever happens. If anything, it diminishes the impact.
As for Harley Quinn....I didn't dislike her, at first. But I don't feel like she needs to be a central plot character to every movie and game ,she's ever in. Not to mention, Poison Ivy who was one of my favorites, mostly has devolved into just being a prop for character shilling, the squealing clown schoolgirl and doesn't really hold any identity of her own anymore, other than "Harley's sometimes girlfriend."
“Wow, the bad guy turns out to be the guy who shows up to remind you he exists every chapter without contributing anything?”
As did I a long time ago. Eventually, however, I just figured that it's not worth hating the world. There's always going to be a bumbling idiot out there somewhere, and everywhere, so what's the point. Best to just focus on improving your world rather than the world at large.
To quote a movie: "You can be as mad as a mad dog at the way things went. You could swear, curse the fates, but when it comes to the end, you have to let go." Basically, to me and with my experience, it's futile. Say what you want, bellow your curses, punch a pregnant woman, but it won't make you anymore happier, satisfied, or indifferent with the world, and at that point, what's the point.

If you can take a break, you should. Still, sorry to hear that. Hopefully though, you've gotten high enough grades to shrug this off.
Trying to do a basic password change through microsoft's "user friendly" system, has made me the most homicidally angry I've ever been.
Anything made by Microsoft is a deal with the devil. They can't even make a proper live chatting program without making it needlessly complex. Hell, their Windows Update destroys computers from time to time too.
Why the hell do I need to have a live account registered and sign up for the cloud to change a password on MY computer? If anything, it seems like just putting your password in five to six different places online would make you much more susceptible to hacking than actually benefit in you in anyway.
The grass isn't much greener on the other side. I'm in the middle of summer right now, and it's just too hot.
The Pacific isn't any better either. It's freezing cold in the morning, and that's saying a lot coming from the people who wear shorts and t-shirts as the usual attire.
I need to start cleaning up my habits again, and get my energy back. but knowing that and that motivation to do it is....
The brain is such a complex thing. It wants to do something but it can't be assed. I hate it and I can sympathize with you, for whatever it's worth.
