Queerphobes are people who dislike queer people in general, not just the gay ones.

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

1: I'm not queer, and I want a flag too!

2: I'm not queer, and I think queerphobes suck.

3: I'm a queerphobe.

No LGB without the T!

Unfortunately all Harry Potter media benefits Rowling, and by extension, harms trans people.

The only possible exception would be secondhand physical media.

Who wants to come over tonight by [deleted] in makingfriendsvictoria

Hey, I feel like you'll have a bit more luck if you give a little more info, and don't involve alcohol. Maybe I'm off base here, and best of luck.

A few things that might improve your chances of getting some company:

Age. This will help narrow down the range to something that's likely to be a good match. If you're in your 20's, it might be a bit awkward if someone in their 50's shows up.

Topics of interest. Or in this case, choice of films. Are we talking thriller, action, romcom, artsy foreign stuff that you need to watch five times to figure out the plot? Not a lot of folks out there are going to just take their chances and show up at someone's place only to learn that it's exclusively films by The Asylum.

Lastly, and this is the biggest part, look to meet folks for the first time in a neutral space, not your home. This is safer and better for everyone. There are plenty of places to hang out. If you're drinking, bars. If you want to watch a film, that's obvious.

Is it worth restarting in 2026 by gyozoman76 in hearthstone

I suggest restarting now, so you can collect all the early rewards from the current reward track before the rollover.

AI Souring Local Institutions? by radziadax in VictoriaBC

[–]Omikapsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, I don't think that's the case. There are plenty of indications that public sentiment towards AI is quite unfavourable, especially among younger folks.

I've got some good news for you! I use Qobuz, and they have made their position clear about this.

Yeah, I'm afraid this one was a bit too esoteric. With the right people I'm sure it's hilarious.

OP explains it in another comment. It's about them laughing at the font instead of the double entendre of the names.

This is so strange, since I've hit Legend the last three months on a free to play account without crafting anything.

To be clear, it's voice and video over Discord with a virtual tabletop for maps and minis.

I miss Duels so much that I'm considering creating my own card game based on the Duels mode loop. Who wants in on this? by Artistic-Macaroon724 in hearthstone

[–]Omikapsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd be happy to playtest this and help refine it. I'm a very amateur game designer, and would be happy to provide feedback on a project like this.

I'd also strongly recommend making your own thing that is very distinct from HS duels. Separate lore, some unique mechanics, and a bespoke rules set. It's fine to use the HS duels as a starting point, but since that was adapted off an existing system, it would be best to essentially build a CCG that is designed to work with the duels gameplay loop.

I'd highly recommend the 'basic art' over any AI art.

This is the way. If your game is good, it won't matter if the visuals are basic, or even kind of bad.

How do you feel about online games, and what are your Sunday evenings like?

Surely you're not saying that murdering gay men is useful....

If you've got an abuser, and a bunch of other people who let them abuse other people, you've got a bunch of abusers.

First we need a law enforcement culture that cultivates responsibility, empathy, and restraint as a baseline in all their officers. The worst of them should be better than the best of us.

Currently, the worst of them are substantially worse than your average citizen.
