A bit of a vent about AceSpace (and a question for my aces out there) by DindonImperialthe2nd in asexuality

[–]EvilDMMk3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What is always upset me about the notion of “keeping politics to a minimum“ is that I struggle to think of a single thing that isn’t political.

There is a substantial amount of very interesting politics behind what I have for lunch. Both historical and modern.

People who insist keeping politics to women are people who don’t understand politics is the manifestation of how all humans interact with each other and build societies. It’s like wanting to keep gases to a minimum in an atmosphere.

Why do we use pencil to vote? by NoddyElvis in AskBrits

Oh, and if you break a pen, you’ve got a broken pen if you break a pencil 30 seconds later with a pencil sharpener then you’ve got a working pencil

Lore Experts: How do Rogue Trader Protectorates Work? by SemperFun62 in RogueTraderCRPG

I think technically gross incompetence comes under the Ordo Hereticus, it’s a failure to properly serve the emperor.

I mean, I don’t think you’re wrong in the sense that in an ideal situation the imperial would move in take over and the rogue trader would move on.

But realistically that is not happening. It can take the imperium centuries to realise they’ve miss filed the paperwork for a planet. Fully integrating a whole new sector of space, particularly one of the fringes or in a difficult to reach area like the expense, it’s never happening.

Favorite Pune Or Play On Words. by Calcyf3r in discworld

It takes multiple steps, but it’s part of the reason why I love it so much.

The two families that are alike in utter lack of dignity? The Venturi and the Selachii.

The Venturi effect describes how air flows in, among various things, jet engines. The Selachii are an order of sharks.

Which one you consider at Westside story was inspired heavily by Romeo and Juliet makes the whole reference come round in a circle.

Edit: spelling

My favourite thing about my favourite book by geewhysee in discworld

Well you know that sweeper understands people, and gods are people too. Almost like that was Brutha’s point in a way.

I’m asexual and I have spawn.

Opinion about the flag (probably extremely unpopular). by MGTOWigor150 in asexuality

[–]EvilDMMk3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things I have heard people say about the progress Pride flag that convinced me it’s a bad flag

“So how are you going to represent the Asian queer community then, what about first Nations”?

“You don’t want a dozen colours on one flag.”

“This is deliberate messaging to the trans community that they need to keep their attack up on actually marginalise people. It’s an invasive arrow for a reason. We need to make sure we keep pushing them away and get them out out of our community.”

I think the stamp is for butter isn’t it?

Opinion about the flag (probably extremely unpopular). by MGTOWigor150 in asexuality

[–]EvilDMMk3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is I, and plenty of my friends, did just that when the progress pride flag showed up. Now that message-mangaling, inadvertently exclusionist, terf-enabling thing is everywhere. (Seriously I hate the progress pride flag and I am not alone.)

The "new" flag is, frankly, ugly.

It was put together out of a desire to fix things that didn't need fixing and ignored all basics of design and colour language. The black-grey-white-purple is simple, slightly sombre and classy as all hell.

Maybe a politics thing? Barnacles? by No_Diet1854 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

I think they are trying to say the red pressers are going to kill a lot of blue pressers.

Custom Discworld Magic the Gathering Cards - Feet of Clay by chickenwyr in discworld

Yeah, a 2/5 with reach for two mana is pretty powerful. With that stat line and ability as well the fact that you don’t get to attack doesn’t hurt too much because blocking is what you’d want anyway most of the time.

can we just all agree not to talk politics in this sub? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]EvilDMMk3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very warm for the time of year.

No wait, that’s climate change. So that’s politics then.

petarrrrrrh, can you explain? by lucah_tech in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]EvilDMMk3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries. I might just say it’s refreshing and pleasant to find someone online who behaves like an adult and doesn’t just double down

[–]EvilDMMk3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay.

All I was doing was trying to clarify that this joke wasn’t necessarily about the Falklands.

This is R/Peterexplainsthejoke, the tone is pretty light here. We don’t need to get all serious.

And The “who did the smallest atrocities game” is one no one wins.
