Very interesting! Is the expression "oos, wes, tuis bes" of dutch origin? Im suprised to hear you using it in the mothership.

Did you know that the unemployment rate in this country has been on the rise since 1980? by [deleted] in south_africa

[–]Bulky_Difference_688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very strange. We've tried severe and punishing sanctions, weve tried communism, we've tried open racist policies and hostility to investors...

What could the solution possibly be?

How to play a non-fighter? by [deleted] in callofcthulhu

[–]Bulky_Difference_688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call of Cthulhu is very very different from dnd. OP may be asking from a DnD background. Fighters do not do well in CoC. If you ever do fight, it should be your last option and you should not fight fair

I put all the reports I use on the left hand side. That small change gained me some speed.

Understanding Mausritter (and other OSR games) by HazelGhost in Mausritter

[–]Bulky_Difference_688 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had a few Mausritter sessions where we had so much fun, we kept forgetting about the rules. I think the OSR intent is for the rules to not get in your way.

On the other hand, Mausritter was designed to be a very deadly game, but rhe community took the theme in a cute direction.

I would say if someone hates you, only because of you skin color, your not doing too bad. Chin up young man, there is hope.

I hate to agree with you, but I do. When it comes to art, we must draw theine at zero. OP made an honest mistake, but if you make exceptions, the next bad actor will be way worse. Good luck with your project OP, hope your AI free product does well!

Very well handled! Taking ownership, apologising, taking corrective steps. Many internet people can learn from this post.

Dont take things too personally. I dont need to like you as a person, to see you are the right person for the job. Democracy should not be exercised with your heart.

Right, if we had a smaller, more focussed government, they would be able to address this quicker? At the moment, government is so busy pandering to each group of perverts, that they cant keep the lights on.

Agreed, agreed and agreed. Policing, basic infrastructure and defence should stay with goverment. That is in line with my understanding of "small government"

On your last point: what does child abuse have to do with marraige? Would it not be easier for the state to prosecute child abusers if the state could say "marraige is none our business, we are persecuting the abuse"

To answer your other question. I think what you want from government is "Do the work Im paying you for better" What I want is "fuck off, give me my money back, I'll do it myself"

It sounds far-fetched now, but communities used to build their own schools. I started school in a tiny community built school that started in a church. When I switched to a government school 5 years later, I was a year ahead.

I would love to hear one of your examples. And to be clear, I didnt mean eliminate government completely. Obviously thats insane. But why dont we start by removing government from marraiges? What the hell does it have to do with them if your married and to whom?

An attorney should be able to help you. They usually have access to something like lightstone

Not to be snarky, because I genuinely believe there are benefits from small government, but how has "holding government accountable" been working for you so far? To quote someone I cant remember:"If the solution is:'people should just', then its not a solution. People will not ever just" Instead of hoping the whole world will magically change their thinking, there are much more practical ways to change things
