Your username is badass

OK that does sound like a fair portion of the lesbian polycules I’ve known lol

I hate that in part because as someone who’s health has been damaged by industrialization (and by illness in my youth) they get even that part wrong.

Yes, a healthy diet and frequent exercise help me, but more important is avoiding pathogens and avoiding harmful pollutants.

I’m wondering if mass distribution of direct translations of his speeches would help or just be interpreted as weird American syntax

So my mom asked if I was gay, I told her I’m only attracted to women. She kept trying to figure out what was up (she was nosy and I was trying to leave a coming out letter so I was acting sus af). Anyways eventually she said “well I know you aren’t trans” and I said “about that…” and came out. Lots of crying on both our parts later she was incredibly supportive, but I wasn’t worried as she had already been a vocal trans ally.

My father on the other hand attempted to talk me out of it then hasn’t really spoken to me since. That includes years of living together. Which, points for stubbornness I suppose.

Yeah dude. In fact I bet some trans guys would benefit from hearing cis guys talk about it

Yeah, I don’t want a sequel for sequel’s sake. If you don’t have an artistic or consumer perspective vision on why a sequel is needed or wanted you should be focusing on something that can be justified like that.

Story and exploration games have this built in. Why do players want a sequel? To have more story, to explore more, to return to this world once they’ve tired of the previous game. Rpgs are expensive, slow, and risky, but you basically never have to justify your next game.

The games mentioned here struggle there. KSP does what it does well. Any sequel comes with huge questions of why people would want another space program simulator, and it’s clear that corporate just assumed that people would buy it because they loved the first one.

And that’s not to say games that don’t feel like a sequel is warranted can’t benefit from one. Roguelikes are about as anti sequel as city builders and there are two roguelike sequels I love. Rogue legacy 2 was the devs reimagining the concept of the first game and making a higher budget (especially in gameplay) game that doesn’t just feel like a cash grab. And Hades 2 is similar in many ways, but different enough to feel warranted and clearly made uncynically. It clearly exists because the leads felt there was more to do with the premise that didn’t belong in the first game.

And there’s the thing, I think that ksp probably did have a sequel in it. Something like a space colony sim where you’re a space station having to build and manage ships and colonies, or something else may have been warranted or good. But it would’ve come from a creative lead wanting to do it rather than what clearly happened of a corporation purchasing the game and deciding that since they owned it they had to make a sequel to use the ip

Yeah i oppose empire but support self determination. If the Greenland inuit want to be Danish that’s between them and Denmark

Canada has made a ton of amazing art. But what they need right now is every Canadian hand on deck. If Myers is able to inspire more Canadian resistance to American threats then he’s part of what they need.

Yeah, I’ve gotten hooked on using either my hearing aids or my pauseable and microphone containing ear buds. Getting my phone out of my pocket to pause has become an annoyance

Fucking hell that’s sad

Then do it

So progressive there’s an anti Vatican II movement in America

There goes one neighborhood in Rome

I know that but have you ever talked about this to rural Americans? They will need to be convinced that beef is too heavy a part of the American diet and that by removing subsidies it will help the climate and public health. They need to be convinced that there exists protein that isn’t animal based and that they may actually like it.

The corporations push it, but even if they don’t the masses are rabid

Yeah as a lesbian I’ve seen gay boy misogyny and this ain’t it

I’m an apostate and I can say that if you managed to get to the eucharist you should know that when you don’t know something about catholic doctrine you’re supposed to run it up the msgisterium. That’s what they’re there for. Priests go to college for this shit and usually can set you right. If they don’t know they can ask a bishop. If it’s pressing and uncertain the pope may need to make a call. And if a world leader asks it the pope actually might

Lol. You’re only allowed to be that bad of a catholic if you were born one or at least have been one for a decade or two. Recent converts realizing catholicism isn’t the aesthetic is funny

Ok but we do need to stop subsidizing beef
