Person A: I’m sick of posts that hate trans men.

Person B: Person A is mad about posts that don’t center trans men.

That’s A New Sentence, and also, B is an asshole.

I don’t read guro, but I’ve gotta ask. Are there 15+ characters called “Taimanin”, and the demise of the fifteenth was just translated, or is there one “Taimanin” and they just translated her fifteenth death?

I've concluded that in deck-based games, I generally don't like decks themed around fire. A lot of designers latch onto the idea that fire "burns itself out," meaning all your cards are oriented towards short-term destruction at the expense of long-term stability. It becomes a sprint to see whether you can kill the enemy before you kill yourself.

Dungeon Drafters leans away from this, but it makes fire the Big Damage Numbers deck. Fire still gets zero defense or support capabilities.

Credit I will give that TERF though:

TERF: "Black kids aren't trans."

Reblogger: "You're lying. Statistically, black people are pretty trans."

TERF: "Your stats are for adults, not kids."

That's A New Sentence is universal.

So much handwringing about what if parents are forcing kids to be trans, and no one follows through that the answer is to get out of kids’ way. Let your six-year-old call themself a girl or a wolf or a robot, and if they don’t wanna be a robot when they’re eight, that’s okay too. But nooo, it can’t possibly be the kids calling themselves this, the only explanation you’ll accept is that the parents made them do it.

I’m reading about the lore of the Metal Slug series, and this would probably be cool if it wasn’t wrapped up in half-assed mobile games. It started off as just the government vs. the rebellion, but then you’ve got the aliens, the other aliens, the cultists, the ex-cultists who split off because the cult leader kept getting creepier, the folks who’re working with the cult leader for mutual defense but are trying to find another ally before he inevitably betrays them, the vengeful remnants of a group the cult massacred, the hackers, the pirates, an entire faction of mummies . . . It’s the same vibe Mortal Kombat has, like kids improvising stories with all the different toys they own.

The more I hear about Warframe, the less I feel like Americans Canadians. Huh. Anyway, the less I feel like North Americans have room to judge stuff like the oath ceremonies in Girls’ Frontline.

I watched a video essay about this Christian furry who got harassed out of the fandom because she declined a request to draw a furry holding a pride flag. I apologize to Christians for thinking this shit was hypothetical. And nobody in the video is willing to come out and say she did nothing wrong by personally declining a request! The most you can get out of them is that she didn't deserve this level of harassment, and they always add that they "can't condone her transphobia"!

I’m playing Octopath Traveler 0

Fascinating that each villain is a “master” of one of the three stats you use to take items from townspeople. By getting better at robbing people, you become more like the villains. Maybe the devs saw those “Psychopath Traveler” memes.

You can tell Pluribus is dark because people died when the infection hit. You can tell it's not a black comedy because the main character didn't kill anyone while drunk-driving to the hospital

All these characters think the MC is gonna bomb the school or something, and she's literally just autistic. Everything that's actually wrong with her is downstream of all the shit people put her through for no reason.

So if I'm understanding this right, TS doesn't make guro games, but does make guro art of his own games?

(It is so hard to look up a developer called "TS" and find any information about them.)

Arknights posting

There’s this recurring thing where the Doctor ties up the enemy’s heavy hitters in an irrelevant fight while the main objective is handled somewhere else. The heavy hitters will win eventually, but by that point they won’t have anything worth fighting for. (E.g. delaying Degenbrecher so she can’t help Silverash.)

This fits with the general description of how the Ghost of Babel used his troops. The difference is that today’s Doctor only does this when the folks who lose to the heavy hitters are still likely to come back alive.

“You’re saying Paradox magic nullifies all rules.”

“Yes.”

“But your spells don’t nullify all rules. Like that frozen-space thing you did. It didn’t get rid of gravity.”

“Paradox nullifies everything. So it nullifies the rule that it nullifies everything.”

“You mean it’s selective?”

“No, you’ve misunderstood. Nullifying and not nullifying at the same time is paradoxical.”

“Fine, let’s rephrase it. Paradox can nullify any rule—”

“Does, not can.”

“So it can nullify the rule that it can nullify any rule. If it does that, that means there are some rules it can’t nullify, right?”

“Paradoxically, no.”

“Your magic is bullshit.”

“You’re beginning to understand.”
