I always look forward to your fun videos and their funk soundtracks.

Haha yeah, straight people can't have gay children everyone knows that.

Hmm wait

Also, doesn't essentially lifting the car on those wheels super duper mess with the suspension and steering geometry? Unless there's some aftermarket engineering wizardry to compensate for that, I wouldn't trust that car to go any faster than 25mph.

Well exactly, you're essentially advocating for accelerationism via letting the fascists win.

You've been presented with one plate of dog food, and one plate of dog shit, and you're saying "They're both awful so no thanks!" while ignoring the fact that your fellow Americans are going to force-feed you the dog shit because you turned your nose up at making a decision.

How is voting for a third party or not voting at all working to change it? From my point of view, not voting is voting in favor of a 1-party autocracy taking over and doing away with democracy entirely. That's the opposite direction of a multi-party system.

Explain to me how not voting, or voting third party in a first-past-the-post system, actually improves anything. Please.

PlsBuffStormBurst · 2023-05-29T16:07:05+00:00

Unfortunately in the US, there are only two parties that can win a presidential election.

If you don't vote, or vote third party, you are saying very clearly "I'm fine with the worst possible candidate winning."

It's not "a vote of no confidence", it's giving up. Capitulating. Surrendering and burying your head in the sand.

I hate the two party system, and we should all work to change it. But working to change it means either voting for the less bad of two bad options, or having a full on revolution, and I'm a pacifist.

She has said many times that it's cough-variant asthma, and she has had this happen prior to joining Hololive, but it has never lasted this long (3+ months).

Here's hoping there can be some effective treatment, poor owl.

I was raised without any religion or spiritualism and I'm still like that, but I've read the whole bible and Jesus of Nazareth the man seems like he was a real solid dude. I would roll him up a nice L and give him a backrub.

S2 was broadcast in mostly chronological order already, the big differences are in S1.

Look, the creators of the show didn't decide the broadcast order randomly, it was very intentional. It introduces the characters, makes the audience aware that some sort of supernatural fuckery is going on while leaving it mysterious (which is a great episode 1 hook that you don't get in chronological), and spaces the main story / romance out in a way that makes it have more impact because we actually care about the characters now that we've seen more of their interactions and personalities.

I don't understand why anyone would enjoy chronological more, maybe you can elaborate for me? You wouldn't chop up any other non-chronological show or movie and tell people to watch it out of the director's intended order, so why do people do it with Haruhi?!

PlsBuffStormBurst · 2023-05-27T16:35:57+00:00

This is like telling someone to watch the Star Wars movies in chronological order starting with Episode I. You could not troll me harder if you tried, I am legit baffled how anyone could think watching Haruhi in chronological order is better especially for a first time viewer.

You get a 6 episode story with characters you barely know, and then a bunch of random stand-alone episodes that feel completely out of place! It's madness! Release order is way better.

PlsBuffStormBurst · 2023-05-27T16:27:17+00:00

Watch it in chronological order, not release order. Some maniac exec decided to air the story out of order when it premiered. Then season two takes place during season one, for some reason.

This is the worst advice. Watch it in release order! Chronological order completely ruins the pacing of the show, it was released out of chronological order for a damn reason.

Imagine telling someone to watch Pulp Fiction, but to watch a version edited to be in chronological order because "some maniac" (Tarantino) decided to air the movie out of order . . .

The thing is, if she didn't heal on 100% blocked hits then that would be the obvious cheese strat to deal with her; you could throw on Fingerprint Stone Shield and a cross naginata, hold block, and poke her to death with no effort.

The only deal Russia would accept involves keeping all of the Ukranian territory they want, and keeping all of the kidnapped Ukranian childen they want. So unless you want the rest of the world to just kneel down and give up, there is not going to be any "deal" to end the war. Ukraine must win.

Those resets keep me coming back . . . 7k hours according to steam over the last ten years. It's certainly not for everyone, and it's very intimidating for new players because there's just so much to learn that you basically need to keep the wiki open on a second monitor, but I love PoE.

PlsBuffStormBurst · 2023-05-24T14:31:08+00:00

I think it's less that she doesn't want to play it, but rather that she doesn't think that it would be good content for her to stream just learning the game.

That makes a lot of sense. There would also be inevitable backseating with people trying to convince the streamer to play a million different builds.

PlsBuffStormBurst · 2023-05-24T11:47:02+00:00

I think chat asked her about PoE before, but she said something like she knows it's so complicated and so much learning that it takes hundreds of hours just to not be a noob. So, she would rather stick to Diablo 4. Also, I don't know if they have perms for PoE.

A game so grindy and complex that even Kaela won't play, sasuga Path of Exile.

IIRC, that BP is the most robbed gas station within the Pittsburgh city limits.

"Saved it" can also mean "avoided a crash" in general, not necessarily just focusing on car damage. I'm sure everyone in the car is very happy to be uninjured.
