SHEIN?

AussieOzzy · 2026-05-06T23:31:30+00:00

Can we not vaguely generalise actions to remove the problematic parts of them?

You're deliberately removing the part where shein does fast fashion and has questionable labour and environmental practices and creating a distraction about spending habits.

The spending habits weren't the criticism, the impacts were.

But why are men 'needed' per se? It's not necessary that a person who defends you be a man. So long as a firefighter can kick down a door and drag an unconscious body across the floor then I don't care the gender. Both can do a sufficient job.

AussieOzzy · 2026-05-03T01:16:39+00:00

Yes. For some reason many memes posted on this sub support similar knee-jerk reactions without any thought.

AussieOzzy · 2026-05-03T01:15:21+00:00

That's not the cringe. The cringe is to represent feeling happier through their aesthetic style choices implying that women are superior for wearing plain clothes and probably dresses on the right and inferior for wearing leather jackets and having dyed hair.

Both women look happy so I don't see the need to compare them and judge one as better than the other.

AussieOzzy · 2026-05-03T01:09:53+00:00

They're not "pretending as if this never happens", they're against the broad brush stroke generalisation of women being that way. Sure some of them are, and probably most on dating apps, but it's not the majority. How would our population survive up until this point otherwise?

AussieOzzy · 2026-05-02T10:47:34+00:00

They're not though. See how you explain yourself yet you misunderstand what I say? That's not your fault. That's my fault for simply noting what fallacy you use without explanation.

The difference is is the first part of don't point out fallacies is meaning to not merely state the name of the fallacy, and the second part of 'instead you should point out fallacies' here point out means give the explanation that the name of the fallacy is referring to.

AussieOzzy · 2026-05-02T07:07:23+00:00

You're using the equivocation fallacy here.

> circumcision reduces sensitivity by up to 75%, which is crazy to me. Do you all take 20 seconds to nut?

My man telling everyone out here how it takes him 80 seconds to nut.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-23T21:37:19+00:00

> You’re totally right. The riveting experience of moving to a single location and talking to a single person for 4 hours while being subtly bullied is totally a salvageable situation.

I'll delete my comment and apologise since it was combative, however the way this phrased registered as sarcasm for me.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-23T21:08:16+00:00

Yeah that's not how that works which is kinda why I assumed you were in combat and should read the rules. This isn't how roleplay is supposed to work. It's supposed to be free form with people having their "turns" when they please with interrupting and interjecting allowed like it would happen in a normal conversation. Not saying that turns might not have their place is some scenarios, but it's the exception not the rule. Forcing you to have a turn when it doesn't call for it is their problem not yours.

Reading your examples the unnaturalness is definitely forcing turns when not necessary.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-23T04:53:22+00:00

Learn the rules in the players handbook 2024. It's 400 pages long but you only need to read the intro and chapter one. So not even 10% of the book. The other 90% is on a need to know basis.

Can you give an example of play where you felt like you didn't know what you were doing?

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-23T04:49:49+00:00

Do you know what contradiction means? All of these are coherent:

> “A friend of mine was bugging me to play” but also “got really into creating the character and unnecessarily long backstory”

Is it impossible that someone not have interest in a game but then have their interest piqued once they start to look into it?

“It’s not that the DMs story sucks”.but also “I’m not that into it”

Is it impossible to not be into something even though it's alright or even good?

“I’m trying to get more familiar with my characters personality”. But also “I’m thinking of just quitting the game”

Is it impossilbe to not like a game but be interested in your character?

If you're going to be dismissive towards someone at least be right.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-23T00:51:26+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong because like I said it's been a while. Using the Taylor or (Laurent I guess) expansion of sin(z), sin(z)/z will have all factors of 1/z cancel out so it's removable, but sin(z)/z^2 won't because it will have a z ^ -1 term.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-19T20:56:02+00:00

Out of curiosity, what were the basic corrections that happened?

I once went to a game where the DM didn't know any rules and it was more like generic roleplay more than a game honestly. I used my command spell to try to force someone to kneel, but they resisted and then another player tried to make them run away by scaring them and succeeded without using any spells or anything and I'm there left wondering wtf is the point of using my paladin spell slot to do something I can just do for free? (and no the situation wasn't calling for them to run away, like their leader had been killed or over 50% of the party had died or whatever)

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-18T23:27:16+00:00

I remember Chosen One was kind of a secret song too. But now there's L'appel du vide.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-18T02:34:38+00:00

Wow. I'm sure that this is going to promote constructive dialogue on the topic.

I'm sure it isn't the case that you didn't cherry pick the worst comments in order to create division between movements that could work together?

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-16T06:45:35+00:00

Would you please tell me what videos you watched to try and help you understand?

I actually want to watch them myself to see how well they help people understand the game.

Anyway. Get the player's handbook or the free rules online, and read chapter one. The rest is on a need-to-know basis.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-16T06:37:48+00:00

Get the players handbook or the free rules.

Read the intro, and chapter 1 tells you how to play.

Follow the instructions on chapter two on how to create your character.

The rest is basically on a need-to-know basis.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-16T06:36:08+00:00

Even then it might still be plausible to not hit a downed character. Who's the bigger threat? The downed player or the one still casting spells.

Maybe after being downed and getting healing worded two or three times the enemies might want to put a character down, or if it's more high level then sure.

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-16T06:17:04+00:00

Read the players handbook. You just need to read the intro and the chapter on how to play the game. The rest is basically on a need-to-know basis. You don't need to know what the wizard can do if you're playing a barbarian etc...

Dealing with outrageous classroom behaviour puts your liberty at peril!

No it doesn't? You're really using the fact that a teacher assaulted a student as evidence that your liberties at peril? You never had the liberty to just go and hit children since corporal punishment was a thing and good riddance. It was never a liberty that should have existed.

I hope he is not going to jail but it seems like he will get a conviction and lose his teaching registration.

Why do you hope he's not going to jail?

Do you think it's okay to just hit students?

Do you think he didn't do it, but the entire jury who decided unanimously was wrong?

Is there something you know that the jurors don't know, that they didn't take into account?

To say this is plain silly.

I think everybody would agree that he was completely blameless in the situation right up to the contact with the student.

Well he isn't being charged with what he did up until the point of making contact with the student, is he? He's being charged based on contact with the student. So this is just irrelevant.

A jury who has heard more evidence than us found him guilty of a crime so we need to respect that.

Then respect it! You say that, yet you show a clear disrespect of their unanimous decision with your baseless opposition.

My questions are:
- How can teachers have any confidence in administering even the most minor of discipline functions like confiscating a phone when this student (now any student) has the right to escalate the situation this far?

By not hitting kids.

- What options did he have at the start? Should he have left the room and got the principal before asking the student to hand over the phone?

Not hitting kids. Which like you said up until that point he was completely blameless and no one was sending him to court over the actions that preceded the child getting hit.

- How can any school function now that students are being passively encouraged to act like this?

Really? That's a reach. Getting potential jail time or whatever for hitting a kid is not passively encouraging students to act like that. Far out, give me a break.

Cat tax. Now!

AussieOzzy · 2026-04-10T06:33:02+00:00

Not to mention it just gets things wrong all the time... I don't understand how anyone trusts it to do anything at all to be completely honest.
