as alive as you need me to be

  • Entirely seriously, look into sets of 'post surgery recovery pillows'.

    They're usually made of something similar to a dense foam mattress, and they'll be in modular, arrange able shapes to make it easier for people with serious injuries to recover at home, in a supported, semi reclined position.

    ... You can rearrange these into shapes that support positions other than sleeping/sitting.

    Usually, these are cheaper than ... basically the exact same things, but explicitly sold as 'sex aides' or what not.

  • Sometimes there is junk in both the trunk and the frunk.

  • Being called an NPC used to be a joke/insult.

    Now its just actually real, people offload all their thinking to an LLM... thats as close as you can currently get to just being a literal real world NPC.

    I guess the next step would be brain implants that just make that it an always on, straight mainline into your brain.

    Reddit hivemind trains the LLM, LLM trains the people, hivemind is now basically actually real.

  • snap

    you no longer exist thus your position and any argument you may have had for it is irrelevant.

    ....also like, he mainly said he did it because too many people = they starve and fight over scarce resources.

    ecological systems will generally maintain a steady state so long as they can adapt to gradual changes, are not exposed to virulent invasive species, and do not have rapid population booms.

    Thus, just snap to alter the genetics of species that tend to overbreed/overconsume in a resource rich environment to have proportionately lower fertility rates when their environment is seemingly abundant, or just, in general.

    But nope, this doesn't occur forehead folds man, who is, i will remind you, a genius.

    He decides to be an invasive species via his imperial expansionism, and then to massively unbalance every ecological system in the universe that involves sentient/sapient species... two things that are guaranteed to exacerbate and cause the thing he says he wants to stop or prevent.

    Bro doesn't understand ecology or biology, he just has PTSD and CTE he erroneously thinks is stoicism.

    Its like being presented with the trolley problem, but you have magic god powers that can just slow the trolley to a gradual stop....and then throwing the switch lever anyway.

    Its ....really just bad writing, especially given that a fair number of the Avengers themsleves, in universe, should canonically know what I just explained. But this never occurs to any of them either.

  • Sometimes, I want to ride my bicycle.

    Sometimes, I don't.

  • So basically:

    His companies are hilariously insolvent, so he rolls them all together and does the biggest IPO of all time to raise money.

    But he still needs more money.

    So then he tries to do a corporate bond issuance... doesn't go super duper well.

    So he still needs more money.

    Welp, ok then, jack up fees, whatever, not very original, but does at least kind of work.

    Any takers as to whether or not he'll still need more money?

    If you guess correctly, you get a free Neuralink installed in your head that you can send OTA bluetooth firmware overrides to nearby devices with your brain!

    Or well, maybe it works... maybes its the opposite of that. Whatever.

    ... But you can recharge them with your solar roof tiles! And then get in your Tesla Roadster! And then take a Starship ICBM flight to Hong Kong or Moscow or Buenos Aires or Rome! And then take the hyperloop to Antarctica!

  • Welp, there goes democracy.

    Cest la vie?

    Or...

    Bella ciao?

  • Kromm is the best God, because he is the worst God.

    Other Gods offer power, strength, abilities, riches...

    Kromm?

    Kromm offers nothing.

    Yet if you please Kromm..... you will already have all that you need.

  • Dog catches car.

    Is dissapointed.

  • Goy and goyim are also just actually words that are fairly commonly used by many English speaking Jews.

    Fair amount of other Yiddish and Hebrew words other than goy/goyim are used this way as well.

    Its like... an additional vernacular.

    Chutzpah, means basically ... shameless audacity, or ... arrogant presumption of privilege, something like that.

    Oi Vey! ... basically 'Woe is me!', but also kind of more like 'Oh shit/fuck/no'... sort of.

    ... I'm not saying you can't use these words and phrases as like, part of a cariacature, but they are also just words and phrases you'd have probably picked up, growing up in a Jewish family, or around them.

    Similar to how you'd have an additional vernacular set if you were from some other cultural/ethic/religious background...

    ... not exactly the same, but Evangelical Christians for example have a weird tendency to pluralize 'evidence' into 'evidences', use 'discernment' in common speech waaay more often than others do, etc.

  • They literally hate you, and they literally want you to die.

  • 100% this is 'we want to fire this guy because he made somebody one or two or three levels above him on the totem pole look really foolish'.

    Its the same bullshit as 'oh you don't get your security deposit back because ... we decided you scratched something, somewhere'.

  • Got it, understood, you can't read.

    Sorry about that for you, good luck with life.

  • No. We are not.

    And no, they are not.

    You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

  • That they are in the position where they even need to ask is an admission that they are sell out traitors to the inherent responsibilities and duties vested in them by the voting public.

    They are frauds and failures, the only correct thing they could all do is rescind all permits for any data center contracts, and then resign immediately.

    Anything less than that?

    Run them out of town, outta the entire fucking state.

  • Well the original GTA stock market did not let you take real money out.

    That would have been completely insane.

    Basically only EVE online, I think, has anything close to that, kind of, its complicated.

    But the point I'm getting at is... they had a game mechanic that, if you were clever, could make you in game rich.

    They destroyed this mechanic, and replaced it with 'if you want to be in game rich, give us actual moneh.'

  • Tippmann really are the GOATs of just like... the 'I like to go paintballing everyonce in a while' demographic.

    Yeah, yeah, other people make fancier pantsier shit... T98 is the goddamn AK47 of markers.

    Maybe one of the actual last examples of American manufacturing one could actually be proud of.

  • I mean yes, true, but:

    More dangerous

    More expensive

    Easier to track who purchased/likely owns one

    More complex to use.

    ... if you get caught marking up a camera with paintballs... or frying it with a laser...

    Which person do you think is looking at more potential fines and jail time?

    Whats less expensive and easier to dismantle and throw away or otherwise dispose of?

    A fairly decently powered laser?

    Or a Tippmann 98?

  • Ahahah!

    No, no... you can't read that well, can you?

    Try again buddy, go ... slower this time, understand how qualified statements work, and keep in mind the entire context of what I said.

    You've concluded that I said a whole bunch of things that I did not say.

    Apparently I've triggered you quite seriously... I wasn't intending to, but uh... yeah, try again, try to read the words that I actually said.

  • I appreciate the perspective and refinement of the idea.

    Yeah, I'm in the crowd of like, bought a Madden game once, had decent fun with it... and then realized the business model is just 'add two features, take 2 away', every fucking year and the whole thing is a scam.

    I'm looking for actually new kinds of gameplay, something novel, or maybe a hodgepodge of mechanics tuned or arranged in a new kind of way, or like, absolutely perfected.

    Either that or compelling stories and characters, or something with a really distinct art/graphical style.

    Like uh, Clair Obscura arguably checks at least most of those boxes for most people... Elden Ring is basically the 'perfected' version of Dark Souls, etc.

    But yeah... either disingenuous or just truly stupid, as you put it.
