Wtf

Thanks

Lmao. What does he think we did to them?

That’s what I’m doing now, but I have to go through the Roku part to get to it. Also roku scans everything coming through the HDMI ports to try and recognize media so it knows what ads to give you

Sick! I wanna check that out

The people who are whining about it are the ones who like D&D and therefore have opinions on it. If you don’t like D&D, you aren’t going to think this is interesting at all.

I have opinions but I also am tired of D&D so I dont engage with those. I might return to D&D if they make it a dungeon crawler but that’s definitely not going to happen

I thoroughly support this initiative

I would love the chance to make fun of Feynman for 3 hours

Ah, yes, the bronce age, my favoeite

Fun fact: Almost every species of jumping spider evolved color vision separately.

Look, russia and the USSR has consistently been led by people who have even less of an idea of what the situation is on the ground than even US politicians. In the US, thats becuase they are bourgeois and live in a world where the banks print money for you. In the USSR, it was because the founders were ideologues who would ignore reality if it didnt march to the tune of their political beliefs and this set the tone for the organization, at least up until they got Gorbachev who was actually sane but was handed a losing hand. In Russia, its because Putin is surrounded by a bunch of bobbleheads who each in turn are surrounded by their own bobbleheads who also have their own posse of bobbleheads as well, and on top of this these bobbleheads are bourgeois who live in a world where the banks print money for you. I have absolutely no idea what motivates the leaders of modern Russia, but i know its not anything that would make sense in the real world or even in the world the bourgeois live in, and I think this mismatch is causing all their issues with the West.

My fiancée asked me to do an easy, mindless task of downloading all the CC for her sims. I tried to explain this to her, and she didnt believe me until she saw that an hour of it reduced me to tears

Meanwhile, Higher Education research be like:

• publishes good quality research on the efficacy of an advising methodology
• immediately gets ripped to shreds by professors from schools using other advising methods
• only research that gets unchallenged is stuff like “some advising is much better than no advising” or "people have different learning styles
• academic advising will never be a career due to the lack of consensus

I bet I could waste funds by getting hired and then doing absolutely nothing

I’m just glad I decided to go full moral relativism right away back then. It was a good way to speedrun maturity, although I did maintain some kooky beliefs into early adulthood such as

• “if you are not multilingual you can’t be a good person, and the more languages you speak the better of a person you are”
• “The Democratic party is a puppet of the Republican party, and in reality the U.S. is only pretending to be a two-party state”
• “The age of consent should be 25.”
• “Evil people can be good functioning members of society, so we shouldn’t discriminate against people who hold evil beliefs as long as they are nice to others.”

It was exhausting. Opposite reason from you, there was only middle ground, no black and white allowed. But it came from the same mental place. Pride, arrogance, nieveté.

Extreme/insane positions on everything. Not just one or two insane positions, not just political extremism; when I say everything I mean EVERYTHING. No nuance allowed. And it has to be fully sincere, otherwise you are dealing with a Jreg.

There are milder versions of this, but I have rarely met a child that didn’t have a strongly held insane belief formed from their limited experiences. My favorite was a kid who told me that eating pasta supports fascism because it comes from Italy, so loving Italian products means you support Mussolini. Pizza is fine, though, because that’s American.

The mods in question were for having sex with literally anything that moves, including the animals

Sometimes your comics make me wish I hadn’t decided that my D&D character was asexual lol. There’re been a few NPCs that have attempted to flirt with 泰山

Honestly reminds me of how much work my fiancée put into convincing me that yes, she did in fact want to date me. Took her two weeks of texting to figure out she needed to tell me with words
