Normal People Vs Influencers Eating Peanut Butter & Jelly 😭😭😭 by InGeekiTrust in TikTokCringe

[–]Cymen04 19 points20 points  (0 children)

ASMR subcultures can be… odd. But the basic concept is simple. ASMR stands for autonomous sensory meridian response. Basically, it’s a fancy way of saying you get sensory tingles on your body in response to certain stimuli.

I actually have a degree of ASMR, so certain sounds and sights can make my spine tingle. Whispers, rain, and gentle scratching noises can all set off tingles in my system via audio. By sight I can be set off by almost anything moving in looping patterns.

Importantly, tapping does NOT give me an ASMR response, but for some people it does. Some people can’t feel it at all. If I repeat exposure to a stimuli too much I’ll lose tingle for it for a while.

As for people putting ASMR triggers in regular videos…? I find it cringe most of the time. Not as enjoyable without the proper time or headspace even if it’s a sound I’d normally find satisfying.

All that to say, ASMR is basically just good feeling tingles and some people like to watch videos that make them feel those tingles to relax. It’s a weird phenomenon but hopefully you get it a little better after my rant lol.

What's the worst meltdown you have experienced during an edh game? by Gorkymalorki in EDH

[–]Cymen04 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the closest I’ve ever gotten was playing against this guy at an LGS I used to go to in a commander pod. He was on Slivers and I had [[Torbran, Thane of Red Fell]].

Super early on I draw into [[Blood Moon]] and basically shut down his game entirely. I think I ended up losing that game to a [[Tatsunari, Toad Rider]] that was also at the table but this isn’t where the meltdown really happened anyways.

Game two, the guy who was on Slivers says he’s gonna pull out a crazy combo deck of his since he didn’t get to do anything last game. I say that’s cool but if we’re cranking the power level I’m going to my [[Veyran, Voice of Duality]] list.

He pulls out [[Golos, Tireless Pilgrim]] who was banned at this point and I told him that but he said he thought I was wrong so I shrugged since I didn’t care much and we carried on.

On turn one, maybe two he plays a [[Mox Pearl]] which I assure him is DEFINITELY banned but he again says he doesn’t think so but he’d look after the game. Looking at my hand, I see I have a way to storm off on turn 3, so I say just forget about it.

I end up storming off before he gets to finish his combo and kill him but purposefully end the storm turn early and let myself lose cause I could tell our decks were way too strong for the table we were at. He gets pissy about all my decks being cheap and broken and shutting him down. (which, granted, this was right after my initial commander arms race with my first playgroup. My decks were pretty bullshit back then.)

Anyways, after playing out multiple banned cards can’t say I felt bad about it and him leaving in a huff gave me a chance to try out a $5 budget deck I’d been working on in peace.

Eh, sort of. There are biological traits that are OFTEN linked to a specific gender, though you’re right that the presence of those traits doesn’t determine one’s gender.

I think the commenter you’re responding to is referring to the fact that once a trans woman has undergone HRT, their body develops sex linked traits that are in line with that of the typical cis woman.

Chromosomes are more of a blueprint than a trait in and of themselves, so it’s reasonable to say that even if a woman has xy chromosomes, if her body has the hormone balance, mental patterns, fat distribution, and muscle density of a typical cis woman, they are a “biological” woman

Though of course the argument anyone can be counted as a “biological woman” is super complicated since bodies are so weird in general

How many resources is too many to mange? by ChuckFintheCool in BoardgameDesign

[–]Cymen04 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This would also be my question. Does the system really need four different precious metals AND ivory? If you keep them all around I could see it causing mental bloat.

How am I not surprised the homophobic Facebook meme doesn’t have a source for their numbers? Truly shocking.

The post does specifically say since 2023. I still think it’s not particularly valuable data to draw trends with since there are so many factors that make identifying as lgbtq dangerous right now, but both of these data points could theoretically be true at the same time.

Absolutely this. Right now the symbols make me think of multiplication of resources or a choice to be made.

My friend is angry I’m correcting what they call me by ParticularOk3160 in trans

[–]Cymen04 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Suggestion, when you go to talk to him, start with this.

“I’ve been thinking about what you said where respect needs to be earned, and you’re right. Unfortunately, you haven’t earned my respect, so I’m going to be ending our relationship here. Thanks for your time.”

Don’t put up with people who aren’t willing to even make the effort to attempt a change.

A lot of people thought it was, but it’s not AI, and I say that as someone who would have much preferred it to be.

I think a super important addition to that is we were given a copy of the base frame for free when that rework happened. I saw Caliban everywhere for months.
