Only twenty?!?? Man I play NMS like I play Sims or Minecraft. I put 100hrs in, get bored and don’t play for a while, when I come back there’s been at least one or two updates and I’m easily able to put back in another hundred with new/revised content.
Not that it’s a competition, I’m just surprised cause of how much time I put into things. (x_x)
Social standards are not the benign excuse you think they are. If someone ever hits you, you hit back. If that’s how they think you learn, then make them learn that getting hit hurts, and show them why they shouldn’t be hitting.
Letting someone hit you just cause “it’s normal” is called Stockholm Syndrome, and is objectively worse than being the one that’s doing the hurting, because it teaches other people that hurting others is okay.
If you saw an adult, hitting and dragging away a child who’s fighting back with all their might at a grocery store, there’s 2 things that could be happening. A.) just a parent “disciplining” their kid, or B.) a literal kidnapping is taking place.
In your (clearly more informed) mind, it would always be scenario A, and you wouldn’t even think twice about the possibility of scenario B, “because that’s the social norm,” according to you.
I’ll say it one more time: IF YOU THROW HANDS, EXPECT TO CATCH HANDS, NO MATTER YOUR AGE, GENDER, OR FUCK ALL.
Who said anything about a nursing home? I thought we were talking about throwing punches? Cause as I said, as each party ages, they both learn who hits harder.
Any old person that acts like they can’t catch hands, is literally asking for some to be thrown.
If you’re 20yo still taking abuse from someone three times your age, you’re not fighting hard enough for your own rights.
I hope to any and every god that may exist, that kid gets close enough to Erdogan one day, to return the favor tenfold.
That’s a very black-and-white way of looking at it. As children grow older, so too do their elders. Eventually the power balance (so to speak) shifts, and both the child and the elder learn who can hit harder.
Or, hear me out, he grows up resentful of all who lord their undeserved power over him, like billions of other children already do?
I’d have thought that too, before meeting him. Even his own family only loves him begrudgingly (though they keep a much more polite face than I could) and conspiracies aside, he’s a waste of society’s time and resources.
Hate me if you think I’m wrong, but if you’ve never met those kinds of people, you have no room to talk. They’re infinitely worse than the internet can make them seem.
I had a coworker before that was a flat-earther (lizardmen believer and all that shit), and one day he came into work saying “y’all ever wonder if the moon makes its own light??” during a dinner rush and the only thing that kept me from punching his lights out was the fact that it was dinner rush, or I would have pulled him by the collar of his shirt and beat him to near death.
I didn’t think people like that really existed until him, and even then I didn’t want to accept it.
Man, I decided to do just that, and it was almost exactly what I thought (minus the technical words): if a velociraptor can do a metric fuckle of damage with their two hook-toes, a T-Rex with 2 of those on each hand can fuck something up, presuming it’s close enough (which, as the T-Rex head/bite-force, and distance from the jaw suggests), would have been pretty frequently.
Even if each claw only did a little damage, that’s still a lot of blood loss throughout the conflict, and the T-Rex would be more likely to win.
As a non-deaf person, I came in here looking exactly for your comment. Reading the post, I was confused as to how deaf people even enjoy music. You told me exactly the things I wanted to understand in a very good, and even relatable way. Thank you!
Over here in 'murica, the only news that makes headlines is about either Biden, Trump, Musk, or mass shootings. 🙄
Doctor, looking at Garfield: “didn’t we meet in 1930s New York? I think there were pigmen?”
I mean, with those options it’s only a 50/50 chance of doing it wrong, and if you do it wrong you know what to try next.
Even the non political .ml communities are full of power-tripping, ban-happy, thread-nuking tyrants in my experience.
I’ve been censored/shadowbanned in a couple .ml instances for calling out their overzealous comment-nuking mods. Not even political in nature, just seeing threads where 80-90% of the comments are ‘removed by moderator’ and commenting how suspicious it was.
Then they removed that comment, and after taking a screenshot of the new comment calling out that, I got shadowbanned and can’t even vote there anymore.
Really good game if you’re into modern Civilization games. It’s like if you crossed Civ 5 with Dungeons and Dragons.
Probably wooshed since B and V are next to each other on most keyboards, making it a super easy typo.
That’s crazy. Not even counting time spent on pirated versions of games, any game that I truly enjoy has at least 300hrs logged. I think my most played game is sitting at a little over 1100hrs because fuuuck am I a sucker for a game dev that respects and engages their players, but that’s a different story to tell.
