Ad Whominem.

The arm of a Sentinel hunting mutants.

No I don’t.

The dream is playing music on the strings of reality. A phone is just a pitstop.

But is it really your brain doing that or everything else in your body doing that to your brain?

Ask the many customers addicted to buying crap.

What if you love the smell of napalm in the morning?

Go into either room, pick up the cat in it, then throw it in the other room and close the door.

That’s an incomplete idea, usually used by law enforcement in order to get more arrests or convictions.

Ignorance is very much a defense. A bad one yes, but no one can know everything. We are all quite ignorant of many things in general.

Ignorance is not a defense when it’s one’s job to know the things one is ignorant about. It’s incompetence without a doubt then. Criminal incompetence if it has victims.

But generally speaking, we’re all ignorant in many ways. And it’s one thing to bring attention to it so one may become less ignorant, but quite another to punish someone because it’s on a subject one finds disagreeable.

The L is on both sides.

I’ve had Airship: Kingdoms Adrift for a while and gave it a go. It’s got neat broadside naval combat in the air and you can customize components in ports. There’s a small chance to capture enemy ships under certain conditions and make yourself a fleet or send trade convoys on their own from port to port.

It has a main mission though and kinda acts like a tutorial so, not sure how far along one has to follow it to unlock everything.
Butt the mission rewards are kind of silly. Gave me some warehouse plans to increase port storage, but no idea when I’ll get to use it or where, if at all.
Need resources probably, but i didn’t get that far and the costs are way above what i can poach.
Then gave me a piece of equipment too big for the ship I have, so again, useless at the moment.

Anyway, feels off. Maybe I’ll get back at it, maybe not… Who knows.

It was sold off to venture capitalists. So obviously it’s going to get much worse before finally dying off in a ditch somewhere.

Seriously, like Gandalf just means magic elf. So he’s just the magic elf that wears grey. Then he’s the magic elf that wears white.

Names are just that, things we observe, want or expect.

It’s a footlocker.

Escapism.

There was an episode in Stargate SG-1 where they find some pretty lights in a temple and they couldn’t take their eyes off it. The longer you feeded the addiction, the easier it made you forget about everything else, until you forgot to eat, drink or sleep.

Not saying social media has the same properties but… “It’s fun”.

I’d find that a modern reimagining of TNG would be lacking. In that we lack the state of mind we had during its rise and the environment in which it is to be produced is far more hostile to its views.

Also Cassette Beasts, should it ever be on sale.

Kinda fucks you up to learn about good and bad in theory, then see how much different reality is in application.

Not just your experience, all of the games I’ve seen have a steady pulse of reviews about giving up due to of older players shitting on newbies, with devs silently endorsing it or having their hands tied by management because either “that’s the way it’s meant to be played” or they have a microtransactions shop and this toxicity encourages petty rage spending to catch up.

And it works, because despite the mixed or barely positive reviews, these games still enjoy a steady stream of players enjoying the cycle of abuse.

I’d consider it an exploitation of the “do unto others what was done unto me” psychological thing we humans tend to have going on.

Why isn’t their own suffering satisfying their thirst?

Hmm… I am a quack, therefore I duck?
