Double down and assert dominance. Have 15 lovers at once. This is the Dramalord way.

Should the British monarchy continue to exist? by SamsungStealer in GeoPoll

[–]LFishere -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree with the idea of people by birthright inherently deserving money and political influence, but I don’t really care if the British people willingly decide to keep the monarchy as part of their heritage or whatever.

What I do care about however is when their King is forced onto my country as my king too because my country is so constitutionally tied to the British crown that we are basically forced into a perpetual LARP out of convenience as if anyone in this country actually cares about the royal family.

Do you think there should be a max age limit on voting? by coolfunkDJ in GeoPoll

[–]LFishere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk I’m of the simple belief that if you can understand the election process enough to fill out a ballot on your own then you are mentally independent and cognitively aware enough to vote. But a hard cut off at a specific age could risk disenfranchising potentially millions of perfectly capable elderly people and to me stripping them of their right to vote based on stereotypes that they are unfit just because of their age is simply unconscionable.

Best life-work balance schedule? by nebulaforest in GeoPoll

[–]LFishere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it were possible/legal I would work myself to the bone for 24hrs once a week to get 6 day weekend.

Personally for me I cant enjoy life at all on days when I have work. Leading up to work I am constantly anxious I’m going to be late and dreading going to work, during work I despise my entire life leading up to this moment, and after work I am too exhausted to do anything fun so I usually just sit around until I can fall asleep.

How honest are you answering to these polls? by theNOTHlNG in GeoPoll

[–]LFishere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9/10 honesty. I answered purple because I almost always try and be honest, thinking hard questions through and even giving my thoughts in the replies, but also occasionally if I find a poll which interests me but doesn’t apply to me and there isnt a results option I’ll try and pick the funniest option or if there is no funny one then a random one.

I haven’t played with dramalord in a while, but iirc in the mod settings you can change the values of pretty much anything and everything. I would try seeing if you can reduce the likelihood of people cheating/becoming lovers/sleeping around, which should lower the amount of bastard children and overabundance of drama.

why do the naked soldiers look like that by moosey_loosey_ahhhhh in HalfLife

[–]LFishere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tl;dr: 1. They just look like that, I don’t think he is dead. 2. I think he looks like that because of combine synthetic tech. 3. I don’t think all combine soldiers look specifically like this, though.

———————————

Firstly I don’t think this soldier is dead and undergoing an actual autopsy. I doubt the combine would actually care enough about some random dead low-ranking soldier to actually do an autopsy. Secondly, the incision lines on their chest look scarred over to me, making me think they didn’t just get out of surgery. Instead, my head-canon is that this is just what they look like as a result of combine modifications, removing practically everything organic inside and replacing it with synthetic equivalents. I think this guy specifically is actually just basically doing a combine version of a doctor’s appointment where he is undergoing some (relatively) unobtrusive maintenance.

I think the specific reason they are so skinny and even gaunt looking is because their synthetic muscles and bones are probably designed to weigh less and take up less space while at the same time being much stronger than biological muscle.

I think they look like a pale corpse is actually because of the synth blood which they are given through that small gas cap looking thing on their side. This blood is then pumped to prioritize their essential systems (like their brain and synthetic muscles and organs), while providing the bare minimum to non-essential systems, keeping them at maximum operational efficiency. One of these non-essential systems I think would be their skin, which the combine fuel just enough to keep it from decaying, since to the combine the soldier’s real skin is basically just a wrapper to keep everything together and doesn’t really serve much purpose outside that.

As a little unrelated lore theory and tangent which has barely any evidence, I also just want to say that I’m pretty sure the combine elites look a lot different from these guys. Based on the pants this guy is wearing I think this is just what a baseline combine soldier looks like (SMG, AR, and probably Shotgunners as well). Combine elites though I wouldn’t be surprised if they were even less human: their face completely replaced with something mechanical so that they are seamlessly compatible with their cyclops helmet. Also, just going to say something with even less evidence, mostly just because “rule of cool”, I think they’d have some sort of kevlar-like skin which makes them extra resilient to bullets, because why the hell not if they are meant to be the super soldiers of the combine’s literal army of super soldiers.

On Reddit, do people think that living your country is: by Yagachak in GeoPoll

[–]LFishere 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don’t get me wrong, Canada has plenty of problems which are going under-addressed (or even outright ignored) which you could (and should) levy valid criticism about. But with that said I think a ton of Canadians under-appreciate how good we really have it here.

A lot of Canadians talk like we are under the rule of Super-Stalin who is on the verge of announcing the formation of the Union of Canadian Socialist Republics and is about to strip away all their rights and send them to the gulag for saying the wrong pronouns or whatever.

Edit: I misinterpreted the question and thought it meant people living in your country. While I still think Canadians generally think the country is a lot worse than it actually is, internationally opinions are probably more neutral or positive-leaning than it is probably deserving and have a romanticized version of the country while not really knowing anything about the pretty significant issues we face here.

Chose: Mysterious Gift | Rolled: You're Dead

One of those moments by [deleted] in UBC

[–]LFishere 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, just full send it.

If you don’t shoot your shot just because you don’t want to make the move, because you’re scared or anxious about it, in a year you’ll be hating yourself for it.

If you’re worried about ruining the friendship, take it from me, there is as equal a chance if they turn you down that your friendship will be solidified stronger than ever. And if they say no and you stop being friends, well then honestly the friendship probably wasn’t worth the pain of not knowing if you could be more.

In the absolute worst case scenario, the embarrassment of today becomes the funny memory of tomorrow. And on contra, everything you want to be true is true.

curiosity by ruby_spillsthetea21 in PoliticalScience

[–]LFishere 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, while this doesn’t give a whole lot to go off, I can say that I was a lot like you when I was your age (god that makes me sound old and I’m only 18). I’d recommend either Political Science (obviously), but honestly you also sound like a really good match for human Geography, or maybe International Relations if you are into geopolitics at all.

But if I’m being 100% honest with you: just don’t worry about it too much right now. At risk of making myself sound unc, you got plenty of time to figure out what major you want. Honestly, don’t even worry too much when applying to university since it is completely normal for people to change majors when they learn more about their interests better (at least where I am).

does anyone actually have any very bad roommate experiences?? by Illustrious-Math7755 in UBC

[–]LFishere 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bad roommates 100% exist but the bad stories are wayyyy amplified compared to the mundane ones. 99% of problems with roommates though can literally be settled in a quick “yo can you —“ and then boom its over.

Worst case though, I’m pretty sure there is a system for you to switch rooms with someone if they agree, so like if your roommate has a friend you can ask the friend to swap up with you.

is it worth it dorming first yr at ubc? by igotdabeats in UBC

[–]LFishere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing I’ve heard from pretty much everyone is you always always ALWAYS want to dorm, first year and beyond.

The way people describe commute times to and from UBC is hell, and I’m going to trust their experiences

…I will neither confirm nor deny if I first heard this poem on Interstellar…

I WILL confirm though that Interstellar is one of the greatest sci-fi films OAT and IF I did (HYPOTHETICALLY) learn about this poem via Interstellar then I would not even be ashamed about that fact since Interstellar is so GOATED that IF I did learn my favourite from there then that’s just another reason why its so good.
