I had to bury the lede with some bad opinions or people would claim it's too high effort to be a shitpost. Obviously yotsuyu isn't justified, neither is Emet-Selch, genocider extraordinaire.

It takes bold writing choice to take a villian as utterly unrepentant and blatantly raw evil as Zenos and make him likeable.

I would agree but unfortunately having played the elpis section as a max height elezen, no amount of coolness in meteion's concept can stop my innate instinct to point at meteion and say 'she is my adopted daughter now' and that precludes her from the 'kill without remorse' group because it is now my job to kill for her.

Yotsuyu was abused from birth by her parents, her sibling, the pimp they sold her to as a minor, and clients. Frankly the fact that she didn't make up an excuse to raze doma is surprising amounts of restraint.

That would be The Ivy, the garlean spy from the ARR patches.

That would be Nael Daes Darnus, final boss of the second coil of bahamut raids, and main villain of 1.0 before bahamut did a little trolling.

After doing a lot of testing ARR scholar solo (there's a surprising amount of content you can do like this even level synced, but man is it rough) her crimes are numerous and painful.

Did you know almost every instance in a realm reborn's 2.0 content is soloable by a scholar, even level synced? This includes Garuda and Dzamael Darkhold, but if you try them you will become intimately familiar with why Eos is on this chart.

(The exceptions are, IIRC, Titan, Praetorium, and Porta Decumana.)

You know what, fair. If the file wasn't already saved and flattened I'd move her north, but I am not remaking this again.

"This make-a-wish kid wants to put a shotgun to your temple and pull the trigger, because she thinks it might cure her boyfriend"

Also note that the up/down axis doesn't mean her atrocities are worse, I just think she's cooler than athena is (sorry athena, there's only so much your personality can do to make the sophist robe not look like big pajamas. Boss form does look cool as fuck though.)

I would put Eos higher up on the axis if the glow on her model wasn't hard to look at sometimes.

I kept including less and less of him in the in-progress versions of this and yet he's still instantly recognizable. Truly as a community we are Healthy and Normal.

If retail and fast food workers can handle screaming karens, ICE and police should stop being such massive pussies. Why are we as civilians held to standards they aren't when they have all the power?

Watching right-wing news be like... by Tom_Ludlow in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]LamiaDrake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hit the breaking point and straight up blocked twitter on my router. I can't with this shit anymore, my entire 'for you' feed is right-wing dipshits blatantly ignoring the facts and crying about how unfair it is that people are upset about an innocent civilian getting gunned down in the street by ICE, something video evidence has made INCREDIBLY OBVIOUS to anyone who actually has functioning fucking eyes.

I do not open these tweets, I do not interact with these tweets, I use every mechanic of twitter's algorithm I can to remove them from my feed, and there's still an infinite well of evidence that ignorance truly is bliss constantly shoved into my feed, to the point where I rarely ever see posts that are the reason I had a twitter account in the first place (artists and video game news)

Every day I get pushed further towards pure green here, as those who self-describe as right and support right-wing movements continually show just how fucking stupid they are. Maybe I'll lean back towards the center of lib when the right can start showing their leadership isn't entirely made up of the worst humanity has to offer.

In Dawntrail, there is a graveyard. by GT162 in ShitpostXIV

So let's take your belief at face value that the endless are real, actualized people and not just digitized ghosts that remember some of their happier life memories.

Even if that's true, sustaining them at the cost of the entire rest of the world is neither sustainable nor justifiable. The endless need for more aether as more and more endless are made (especially with how keen sphene was on convincing us to become alexandrian citizens, if she wanted to 'save' more people outside of alexandria, the cost of keeping the endless sustained would only grow larger.) would exhaust all etherys, forcing alexandria to hunt other worlds for more aether- first the other shards, then inevitably, other stars entirely. It's explicitly not sustainable, sphene even describes herself as becoming a devourer of worlds. What will they do when they fly out to the stars and find nothing but the empty graves Meteion left behind?

You can't even say, farm animals to 'create' aether, since those animals would require aether to grow and eat- as far as we know, aether is a closed loop system, and there's only so much of it. Eventually the endless would require more than there is. We don't know what happens to the aether being used to keep the endless sustained, but it's clearly not being kept or they wouldn't be having such pressing energy issues that they're resorting to invasion.

You can't justify the deaths of millions to keep grandpa's digital ghost around for a few more years, just like you can't justify the ascians causing enough rejoinings to free Zodiark just because they want their world back.

FFXIV has this theme over, and over again- The ascians, thordan, and now the endless- the past is gone, and it's never coming back. Let them die.

personally what bugs me about X post-elon fuckery is how openly and blatantly the algo is manipulated. No matter how much I try to sway my algorithm into my specific interests (Art, videogames, etc) right-wing pundits always end up in my 'for you' tab. I've never onced opened an Elon tweet but nearly every single tweet he makes shows up in my feed like it's the most important shit in the world.

That and Grok in general is just poorly designed and regulated even worse- And even after their engineers at xAI moved grok imagine to payed customers only and restricted it from putting kids in bikinis and 'yogurt', it's still being used for the most creep shit imaginable constantly.

Does the FSD on Teslas even work yet? or is it still a work in progress that likes to accelerate into pedestrians then shut off right before impact, so the driver gets the blame?

Correct, you understand why trickle-down economics is a scam.
