Because you know, antagonizing people is definitely gonna get them to sympathize with your cause. Many forget (or don't know), that without the center/majority we can't do anything. Like even if you dislike them, be logical because you need them <.< 3 hours ago, Armagon said: Righties and leftists are the same in that regard actually. Except righties can unite under someone if needed (even if they hate each others guts) Meanwhile lefties: "2 lefties meet, they create 3 Parties" Edited July 4 by Codename Shrimp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayni Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Look, just woke up, not bothering on the boycott talk. It's something I find people aren't engaging on in real life enough so why deal in the online where people are... well more willing to be pricks to be blunt? As for Horseshoe Theory, I've been hovering around this space the last while and I feel like it's lazier than people let on. The idea that eventually they're the same in practice to decent society? And so often it's just "Left groups are as bad as the right" when on policy rarely is there anywhere near the acrimony. Sorry, just sick of it as a thing. 5 hours ago, Armagon said: Other than that, see the pic above. Sandman (oofff for that second season), Stardust, Good Omens (with Pratchett), American Gods, fricking Coraline (The book it's based on), and that's the ones I can bet might be recognised. Yeah, I think some shows are getting wrapped up. 38 minutes ago, Codename Shrimp said: Except righties can unite under someone if needed (even if they hate each others guts) I'm not so sure about that, here at the minute it's looking like they can't pull themselves together (though supposedly talks are happening, I feel like progress would be mentioned). And if anyone here's heard of our National Party, they already split over internal issues and it turned out they had what got referred to as Nazi Gold. Which yeah isn't the most dramatic examples, but the real fear has yet to materialise of someone to coalesce around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The left? I mean i guess they had unions until Reagan fucked it all up. 5 hours ago, Dayni said: And so often it's just "Left groups are as bad as the right" when on policy rarely is there anywhere near the acrimony. Sorry, just sick of it as a thing. To be clear, i do think the right is worse but it's true that the left really doesn't know how to organize that effectively. They did once but i feel that's been gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuardianSing Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 On 7/3/2024 at 5:41 AM, Armagon said: Kirby's Return to Dreamland Deluxe review I think this might actually be the best Kirby game that isn't Forgotten Land. The variety of copy abilities here is probably the best it's been in the series and they all control really nice. The brand new additions of Mecha and Sand Kirby are very fun to play with too, so i'd like to see them return. And of course, the Ultra Abilities. Can't ever go wrong with these. Yeah they're gimmicky and don't actually add much to the game but they're still fun to use. This game also added the brand new Maglor Epilogue and it's....fine i guess. Idk i found it kinda boring but i don't think it detracts from the main game. Music good. 9/10 OH MY GOD I JUST PLAYED THIS GAME AND WAS GOING TO SAY SOMETHING BUT FORGOT. Yeah during exile I've been blasting through all of the Kirby games. The highlight was definitely that part in Planet Robobot where they just casually hurled slurs at me.

Armagon Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 7 minutes ago, Codename Shrimp said: Wait It's not a holiday today? It's a federal holiday so all the official stuff closes for the day. This includes banks, which is why that transfer I made towards my secondary account won't happen until Monday. Most stores either close for the day or close early. The store I work at is the latter, normally closes at 8 but today at 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interdimensional Observer Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Bleak topic today.🙁 And here I'm already 😔, paired with extra 😞 from it being a warm sunny holiday and yet I'm like this.😮💨 It's so... crushing?😫 -It's difficult to select what concise few words to use. Anyway... https://www.eurogamer.net/autism-queerness-and-unmasked-gaming-a-personal-reflection Just read this (posted only today). Interesting. Never heard of this not-a-decade-old "double empathy problem" hypothesis before. ... high levels of "masking" – the exhausting process by which autistic individuals try to blend in by prioritising the needs and comfort of others, *Clicks on the link* Spoiler Autistic people have described masking as: hyper-vigilance for and constant adaptation to the preferences and expectations (whether expressed, implied or anticipated) of the people around you tightly controlling and adjusting how you express yourself (including your needs, preferences, opinions, interests, personality, mannerisms and appearance) based on the real or anticipated reactions of others, both in the moment and over time ...Ahahahaha. Yeah, this simply has (okay, partly to be less dramatic) to explain why I've allowed myself to drift in life so much. Burying myself and allowing the never-can-be-autonomous asexual autistic teddy bear cliche that others think I am go on.🤣 5 minutes ago, GuardianSing said: Happy Rwanda Liberation day everyone. 🥳🥳🥳 Thanks for the heads up.😉 And happy Philippine Republic Day.🇵🇭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
