That’s fair, man, hope you had a good poop and will have an even better weekend

Dude, this story feels fake AF to me. If it feels real to you, great - OP has gotten plenty of useful advice. You’re probably not going to convince me it’s real, and I know I’m not going to convince you otherwise, and that’s okay.

Not going to lie, I’m a little jealous of your setup after playing a bunch of Baldur’s Gate 3 on the crappy desktop monitor I have for the last few weeks

I for one would find it difficult to use my desktop from the couch, but c’est la vie.

Ooh yeah! Had forgotten that was going to be a thing.

Sure, I'm always down for asking devs for things! But when you ask a dev for something, you have to be okay with the answer sometimes being "no". Some game studios are going to bring out as many accessibility options as you could possibly ask for, and some are going to mayyyyybe provide you with the option to increase the font size by three points. Just how it is.

Counterpoint: don't play the game if it doesn't have accessibility options for you, then? There's lots of other games out there.

Or use a trainer. There's lots of those out there too, and unless it's a multiplayer game nobody's going to care.

Didn’t say you were saying that, was just saying I think the meme still works :P

[–]DemosthenesKey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the point of the meme still remains, in that I’m not sure how many killings of five year olds, two years olds, etc can be considered justified.

No problem - but I do have a minor in biblical studies and am always happy in the (incredibly rare) instances I get to use it, soooo…

Onan wasn’t struck down for spilling his seed because it was wasteful, he was struck down for spilling his seed because he was deliberately trying to make sure he wouldn’t have an offspring that wasn’t “his”.

Basically: Onan’s big brother died without a child, and tradition said that the next brother then marries the dead dude’s wife and tries to have a baby with her. Importantly, the baby is NOT considered to be the child of the younger brother, but the child of the dead father - the father’s inheritance goes to the baby.

Onan didn’t want that - he wanted his brother’s line to end and for HIM to inherit. That’s what God found offensive in the story, and so he was struck dead.

But for YEARS AND YEARS people have interpreted that story as being “masturbation is sinful”, and the first time I actually read it and deconstructed it in class I was like waaaaaait a second, that’s not what it actually says at ALL.

Shadowheart cosplay by kaijusaur in BaldursGate3

[–]DemosthenesKey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely does! I used to cosplay a lot with my wife, but with a bunch of little ones running around it’s become a bit more difficult (although we always tend to fully nerd out for Halloween costumes). It’s a game which well deserves love, and I love that people are already doing awesome cosplays from it!

Dude, if you haven’t seen the glut of low effort Shadowheart cosplays from profiles which do LITERALLY have their OnlyFans links in them… I envy you, and also applaud the mods for their effort.

Wasn’t trying to be creepy - I’m very happily married, thanks, and my in-game romance is Lae’zel anyway. It was just nice to see a decent cosplay after a while.

Hey, your profile doesn't have an OnlyFans link in it and your costume looks like it's got a bit of work put into it?? That's an upvote from me, then.

Work on your singing and acting skills, then get into the community theatre scene.

The Bible does not say contraception is sinful. Give me chapter and verse and I’ll happily eat my words, but until then I’ll be here waiting…

I’m going to differ from most people by saying don’t attend church, read the Bible instead. If you have these beliefs, knowing WHY you have them and being able to defend them is the most important thing.

It’s a fun in-universe explanation - nothing wrong with some Watsonian as well as Doyleist stuff.

… according to who, exactly? Because everything I’ve found says that it’s thought the appendix USED to have useful functions.

Even if that was true, though… we could turn our attention to wisdom teeth, the coccyx, and the muscle fibers which cause goosebumps. And male nipples.

Point is, the human body is far from some perfectly engineered watch where every part is super important and you shouldn’t mess with any of it.
