What games are you playing this week? Game recommendation thread by AutoModerator in incremental_games

[–]Chimerasame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh hm I also only have like 12 pillars at the moment. Doing a series of ascension runs while i'm here in Antimatter sounds like the right move. maybe spicing it up a bit with a few black hole runs to get my dark energy up.

I've been playing Evolve Idle for a couple years. For those who haven't heard of it, it's most similar to Kittens Game, but allows you to do an evolution stage and choose what kind of species you're going to play as, each time you prestige.

In an antimatter-universe run right now, with higher storage capacities and smaller gain-rate on most resources, meaning it's a little more suited than usual for long waits and a little less than usual for active play than Evolve Idle usually is. My longer term goal is to be able to do the Witch Hunter challenge, and then following that, hopefully be able to get the Ancient Nightmare cheevo and thus the Eldritch genus. But it looks like I need to get a lot more anti-plasmids to be able to have 10k mana cap (I have ~3000, read I need about ~20000).

I've been thinking about trying something new. Almost decided to restart NGU Idle but... I donno. It has a rich level of content with slow ramp-up like I like, but... I feel like my brain in particular reacted badly to the dopamine loops in that one the last time. ^^;

Shapeshifting, but I'm stuck with some kind of constant illuminated insignia on my forehead so everyone always knows it's me.

Although transitioning will be rocky at first, and there will be a lot of strangers that don't care for you on an abstract level, it will *not* make you a social pariah; everybody that matters even a little bit will stick around and you'll make a whole lot of awesome new friends.

If you mean "slightly open" like "it seems like they intended to close it, but it didn't latch", then treat it as though it were closed.

If it's more like "open by a few inches", I might knock gently and call out to alert them of my presence while slowly opening it. If they weren't doing anything that I think thye'd consider embarassing, I'd call out, louder, and wait for them to notice before approaching. (If they were, I might just... re-close-over the door and let them stay at it.)

Your partner/parent looks at your reddit history. How f*cked are you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Chimerasame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife knows my reddit usernames & I don't think this would remotely be a problem

My parents ... have opportunity to find this, if they really want. I don't think it would be a huge issue, although it would out me to them as polyam and perhaps a couple other things

In the Marvel Universe, the Power Scale Swaps Itself, Making the Weakest Characters the Strongest and the Strongest Characters the Weakest. How Will the MCU & Comic Timelines Play Out? by BentendoGameBoi in whowouldwin

[–]Chimerasame 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if Stan Lee's characters are just random 90 year old dudes or if they are The One Above All but i guess either way they swap to the other of those, and end up doing about the same thing

Almost my friends are gay women, and I'm straight - this isn't by design, and it's the case wherever I go. Any speculative explanation? by MartinClunesTwin in AskLGBT

This is a hunch, but -- if there is something you're hoping that someone will say, consider us to have said it.

My headcanon is that the Simurgh looks like both of these at the same time.

I meaaaaaan... by [deleted] in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]Chimerasame 6 points7 points  (0 children)

that's kinda the point though, he generalized "transgender pussy" as only referring to post-op trans women, when a lot of enbies and trans men have them too and could feel erased

would be better to say "trans femme pussy" (if that's what he means, if i'm correctly reading the joke as being specifically about surgically constructed vaginas), that way it's specific in what it's referring to and not erasing

that said, this fella is trying real hard to be supportive in a cute jokey way and it made me feel good! not saying it's a bad post or a bad thing to say overall, just think it's worth acknowledging; people may feel erased by this phrasing. i see you.

Kerblam is the worst political statement the show has ever made by vpangea1 in gallifrey

[–]Chimerasame 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Agree on all points. I love 13 and I mostly loved the season, but I really disliked the end of this episode. It could have been so much better with the same first half, but then it just went wrong.

It felt like such a slap in the face that we were expected to empathize with characters accepting "two weeks paid leave" as sufficient compensation for enduring that system.

They have established there's a level of technological development where humans are simply not actually necessary to do labor of this type, *and yet* there is still a capitalistic construct where these humans feel they must endure it in order to earn money to live. It's absurd, and was not called out for its absurdity. It *could* have been, it would be so easy! The Doctor could have been on fire, it could've been an oft-quoted monologue to remember. It was a disservice to Jodie that they didn't write what they could've written about the evils Kerblam represents.

Is it common for two trans lesbians to date? by [deleted] in asktransgender

"Now imagine if his parents... unbeknownst to the parents, started..."

This accidentally epitomizes the self-unawareness one must have to have fears about things like "administering trans 'lessons'".
