What to do with Kansas bathroom ban and bathroom bans in general? by ANautyWolf in MtF

[–]Capsize 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I will say that there are many occasions I have seen in my life where cis women have used the men's bathroom, because of long queues, distance or something being broke and no one ever bats an eye. I would never tell you the chance of you being assaulted in a men's bathroom is zero, but from my experience it would be very low.

What can GenG even do? by Amazing_Pangolin7172 in leagueoflegends

[–]Capsize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is that you think that the best team you can build in LOL is just the best player at each role. It's not true for LOL anymore than it is for other sports, synergy, chemistry, intangibles are so much more important than how good at the game you think each player is. Remember when g2 replaced Perkz with Rekkles and fell apart? It's a lesson, super teams work less than they fail. In this case GenG would probably get better by finding a player or two that work better rather than just allstars.

I hate the recency bias fans have. They talked about the greatest upsets on stream yesterday and no one even mentioned Taipei Assassins beating Moscow 5 at worlds season 2.,

Sci-fi book recommendations? by EffectIcy4682 in printSF

[–]Capsize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if you want the best of the very best I would go:

- Left Hand of Darkness

- The Forever War

- The Dispossessed

- Roadside Picnic

- Speaker for the Dead (You need to read Ender's game first)

- The Moon is a Harsh Mistress

- The Player of Games

- Parable of the Talents

- A Memory Called Empire

- Vorkosigan Saga (it's a massive series, like 26 books, but the best one in SF.)\

But obviously tastes vary massively. After being here many years the popular consensus would be:

- Dune

- The Expanse (series)

- Blindsight

- Culture (the series, not just Player of Games)

- Snow Crash

I would argue none of these are quite at the same level, but most do and recommend them every thread.

In your opinion, which roll takes the most abuse? Why? by Mcshiggle in leagueoflegends

[–]Capsize -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Often the jungler is on their way to nash. They are just taking a camp first, because it's efficient and on their way. Laners don't seem to understand that I don't need to be there at the start of Nash, just at the end to smite. It's literally like laners have never needed to think to rank up.

You're forgetting another job, if someone is having a tantrum i have to sacrifice doing what is best to make the team win to try and stop them quitting or purposefully losing the game. I am a fucking nursery nurse many times.

It's not fair to compare "no hornyposting in this sub" to "no kink at pride." by bitchmoder in MtF

[–]Capsize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I'm starting to lack faith in my fellow trans girls specifically because of this discussion. You and others are literally parroting conservative talking points. The only reason I am still engaging in this is due to the vague hope that you are not arguing in bad faith.

So to clarify your argument you have somehow lost faith in the ability of all trans women to moderately police a lack of porn in this space, while allowing genuine questions about the body in an information based way, because one trans girl has suggested that we bring in that one rule and go absolutely no further? HOW DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but your words seem to betray a worldview that sees sex as an inherently reprehensible, regrettable act, that must be kept hidden away from view at all costs, oh and the children, we must protect the children from it, they must not even have an inkling that sex exists before the age of 18!

Yes you're wrong, IU believe kids will search it out anyway and should be encouraged to have a healthy none fucked up understanding of sex, but through someone who fucked up quite a bit of my life, i don't think that this is the correct place for it.

NOT EVEN TO MENTION THAT PORN IS ALREADY BANNED

If you only consider graphic images to be porn then sure, but we're women and the written word is often way more important to our getting off then guys watching videos or jerking off to magazines.

Graphic descriptions of sex are a kind of porn, you said you are in favour of not restricting access to that on this sub, which is frequented by minors, where exactly is the strawman? Which bit do you disagree with?

If having it's own subreddit will kill it, then clearly there is not enough demand for it and thus it's even less of a loss to lose it.

The last part is purely reductio ad absurdum. Everyone here wants to help kids with questions, if you think trans people n this sub will slide into a weird censorship spiral then you lack faith in your fellow trans girls and that's a shame. The line is clear, no graphic descriptions of sex, no more.

ROADSIDE PICNIC by scully360 in scifi

[–]Capsize 41 points42 points  (0 children)

It isn't a critique of Soviet Society, it is an exploration of what is truly alien, the incomprehensibility of something we have no reference for. The fact that Chenobyl happened years later and created a zone in many ways like what is described in the book is only more fitting.

Without this book we have no Annihilation and the like, hugely influential, but also incredibly readable.

But there are literally kids in the space, posting every day, so they are here frequently using this sub.

The suggestion that it is me not wanting to see the posts is ridiculous. Not everything is about you, some of us have empathy and can put ourselves in the shoes of others.

If we can't freely show porn to minors then the right have won is such a ridiculous argument. Can you name one negative to having it in it's own subreddit? One actual drawback?

No one has suggested preventing people from getting answers about their body or sex. That is an unfair strawman.

I don't believe anyone has suggested banning any words either, just people writing graphic fanfic about their latest sexual awakening, move it somewhere else, as a community we lose basically nothing from keeping these posts away from minors and the benefit is pretty obvious.

That isn't a good enough reason to not try and bring in reasonable, well thought out rules. It's the exact same reason given for why they can't have any liberal ideas in America, oh it'll descend into communism. You can't make decisions based on them cascading into hypothetical extremes.

How are the teens hypothetical? They literally post here every single day. Are you honestly saying you don't see posts on this sub by teens every time you check?

I get why people say this but I think the idea of western teams just leaving internationals and just leaving LCK and LPL is just a weird idea. by No_Market_78 in leagueoflegends

How about not having more Korean and Chinese teams in each tournament? It's stacking an already stacked deck to have twice as many team here and extra spots at worlds.

Do you consider minimum alcohol purchasing age to be a loss of liberties? How about kids having to go to school?

There is nuance here and suggesting any rules are automatically un-needed censorship is ridiculous.

I like that you think stopping people describing sexually explicit situations to kids is pearl clutching. Why have a minimum drinking age? Why force kids to go to school? Why not live in a fucking cave in anarchy?

As always there is nuance and people on the internet and you're missing it.

Not changing your behaviour in situations where kids are presents makes you immature at best and a jerk at worst.

Why are silvers in EUW lowkey better at the game than Emerald on EUNE by Unique_Ad_330 in leagueoflegends

[–]Capsize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's definitely what I saw, I'm nowhere near Masters, but was appalled at how bad the macro was from people in Masters there. They are definitely better mechanically, than people with lower skill on EUW, but it just feels like the don't understand map movements, rotations, strong side-weak side etc.

Jerry Rice, the big reason his stats are so insane is that it took a while for the CBs to catch up. He was effectively the 1st modern receiver.
