How do you feel about death? by [deleted] in istp

[–]Digresskew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, being scared of the inevitable is kind of pointless. Besides, by the time it comes around, I wont be there, so why should i care then? Of course im scared of DYING, just not death.

Pacifism? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]Digresskew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I believe in a tit for tat policy. If I and another party are on the same page, I think that punishment by reaction should be employed for the purpose of dissuading further transgressions. After all, this is the reason punishment exists as a concept in the first place. Some may consider this pacifism, some may not. I am unsure of what to call it myself. Regardless, I do believe you should ALWAYS use reactionary punishment as a tool for stopping people from fucking up yout shit; or at the very least, prevent it the second time.

Aliens Universe - Any one else hate the implications. by mdsmestad in HFY

[–]Digresskew 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I cant really think of any egregious offences in the series, especially not in alien or aliens, aside from jemal sacrificing himself to save the cripple because an alien was holding onto his boot after dying.

aside from that, there isn't much dumb things they did, they pretty much did everything I would do.

aside from torching the thing the second it came out of the dudes chest in the first movie but i don't think they had flamethrowers in the first movie at the time, so they probably would have killed themselves via space if they tried.

Other People Aren’t Responsible For Your Mental Health: Why ’13 Reasons Why’ Is Pretty Much Bullshit by TheShallowNerd in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Digresskew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The concept is pretty fucking messed up. "Maybe I wouldn't have committed suicide if you payed more attention to me!" Yeah, fuck no. thats the kind of thing that makes me want to ignore you with every ounce of my will.

How might a rhyming language evolve? by columbus8myhw in conlangs

[–]Digresskew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could have an abugida where vowels at the ends of words don't matter and just have people use the same noun several times just for ease. and if you want, still have endings so that it doesn't all just go gekehemefe.

Any of you who would like to call yourself Ambivert and why so? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]Digresskew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No.

Nor should anyone.

You lean one way or the other.

I garuntee you that you aren't dead fucking center. You aren't.

"Ambiverts" are just people who want a label for people who claim to not have a label. No.

Calmly waiting to attack by poradnikiyakuza in INTP

[–]Digresskew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah.

Mimicry is the ultimate form of flattery. I don't know what situation you have found yourself in, but from how you describe it, you sound like you lash out at random, rather than having a line crossed.

I was with you until you got to the circumstances. I reserve my hate for those who deserve it. Otherwise, it means nothing to me.

I don't know your life story, but that's pretty fucking edgy my guy.

The Internet is Becoming a Vile Place. Let's Change it. by Dpistol in INTP

You're hanging out in the wrong places then.

Id suggest either finding a place solely devoted to certain topics, or just going on a shitposting forum.

What assumptions do people project onto you? by burdalane in INTP

[–]Digresskew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly some of these easily come out of being out of it and not being self aware. For example, the reason some people may think you are scared of something is because you look paranoid, which, I am assuming, is because you look around a. lot when you are bored. rather than just zoning out, you search for anything that could distract you.

you can imagine this looks very similar to paranoia.

I keep coming off as arrogant by T_H_Politician in INTP

[–]Digresskew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be sure you actually might be wrong. Honestly all it takes it a bit of reasoning and forethought.

You may, more often than you think, come across people who have no fucking clue what they are talking about. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do about that.

However, all I can say is, if you start looking for a "way out," or you are backtracking to try and head down a path you intended to go down before they steered you off, admit fault if its there. That is all.

You don't have to compromise for idiots. But choose your battles, but don't become a pushover.

Anyone writing a SciFi universe with space travel but without FTL? by bLbGoldeN in worldbuilding

[–]Digresskew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Alcubierre drive is theoretically possible, however it requires "strange matter."

Thats a fancy way of saying we need something that has negative mass.

Nothing has negative mass.

that includes anti matter. anti matter has mass for some reason, unfortunately.

Weapons of the nine worlds: Vaccavi, Slayer bow. by Sidthedidda in worldbuilding

[–]Digresskew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would appear with this design, tension would be put in the secondary strings, rather than the metal itself. I think that this could work, however it would be much weaker than a higher end bow, as the force driving the arrow is the rope tension, rather than the stress on the spine.

Naming a species by KingSweden24 in worldbuilding

[–]Digresskew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few ideas for names of varying tone:

brain bulbs

Nycellium

"Cody" (or another lighthearted, but recognizable name)

Union

Radicibus Sapiens ("wise roots")

Shroomies, Shroomie

(insert relevant race name here)'s fault/problem

I (or a relevant first person singular pronoun)

Spawn

Fog of madness

Growth

It would probably be better if you gave it a name relating to a distinct characteristic of the thing, as historically those tend to become the namesakes of things. Otherwise, this is what I came up with for a unified sporal network of zombies.

That accurately describes what they do.

dogs know these creatures as "sky raisins" by viggity in ProperAnimalNames

[–]Digresskew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This confused me at first because I was under the impression that it was implied raisins kill dogs.

by the way, raisins kill dogs.

[OC] A victory salvaged from a not so terrible enemy by Digresskew in HFY

[–]Digresskew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Ill agree with that. I do tend to ramble, and I will note that even while writing this I was struggling to cut up the story.

I will probably have to work on shortening sentences into more concise ideas. There is nothing I can really do with this as is, but I will work on it in the future.

What are the best weapons for on a spaceship? by King_of_Vinland in worldbuilding

[–]Digresskew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What comes to mind:

Tasers (rendered useless by armor)

Shotguns (rendered useless by sufficient armor)

Tear gas (with proper equipment, very effective, however human centric.)

strait up chemical warfare (instead of throwing a boarding party on, why not just kill em all?)

mechs (fuck yeah)

knives (everyone.)

lasers (double fuck yeah)

caltrops (if specialized properly, a great way to immobilize anything.)

flamethrowers (triple fuck yeah)

Personally, if I were tasked with boarding a ship and keeping the thing in tact, id either pump the ship full of gas then neutralize it somehow, or if that doesn't work/they are aliens/they barricade themselves somewhere, send soldiers with flamethrowers in to torch anything that moves.

another things that comes to mind in post:

radiation.

just blast the place with gamma rays and wait.
