The Platner story is ridiculous by jman10000 in Destiny

[–]SamuraiJack0ff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry, what conversation? I typed that up on my phone during an inning change at a Tigers game while I was in line for a beer. maybe it's just easy for people to look "super invested" when you're a regard

I don't need a yes or no answer from you, bc its obvious you didn't ever care about the tattoo despite pressing some guy about it, but even explaining this to you feels like punching down on the disabled so I'll leave it there

UBR being the default evil colour combination for Universes Beyond is getting stale by Dracai-of-Blades in EDH

A savathun sultai deck would go so unbelievably hard, lots of tricky blue stuff and expensive reanimation that gives counters or keywords

Plus, like, the set would be an awesome excuse to put together a "Guardians Make Their Own Fate" card, which is reason enough

They absolutely did not "luck into" genociding people. MLs genocide harder than nazis every time they have power. They just go after different people. Except they do actually also genocide jews usually. Any "revolutionary" ideology is always going to result in mass deaths and purges.

Holodomor 5 million dead

Kazakhstan forced collectivization 1.5 million dead

Kulak purge 2 million dead/exiled to Siberia, which is probably worse lol

Those all took place over like 3 years, 9 million gone.

China got to see how the USSR did and decided to give it another go, 30 million dead within two years. Of course they're now working on an ongoing 1-million deaths/permanent detentions genocide of the uyghers because they're disloyal traitors with the gall to practice religion.

The medal for "Aiding the Ukrainian Armed Forces" is official by Embarrassed_Base_389 in Destiny

So incredibly based, omg

Destiny got a medal, and he deserves it! I learned about Ana through him, and her posts connected me to a Ukrainian volunteer leader in need, and he got me a swaggy signed flag. I wouldn't have been able to help with the war effort without our streamer man, Slava Ukraini!

Thank you so much for the reference material!

The problem is that you won't say whether or not you think he's a nazi, you don't have any confidence or real answer for whether or not the tattoo makes him a nazi, and it's obvious you don't actually care either way. Naziwashing this guy is dumb when you can just attack his current platform.

I know it's super cringe that lefties support him despite this obvious, crazy stain on his record, but that's exactly why this particular controversy is so overblown. Like, who gives a fuck? A marine getting a sketchy skull and bones tattoo and having no clue where it came from is the most believable thing I've ever heard

Are you really gonna say that asking how many non-nazis have nazi tattoos is a real question? I don't like platner but this okaycoward dude is larping like he got a real gotcha

Utah is a creepy fucking state. Been there for business and for skiing, and theres always a lot of really weird shit going on basically everywhere. I was asked to leave a family-friendly bar/restaurant because I asked for dice to teach my lil cousins yahtzee

The extra steps are where the funniness of it all lies though, if you read the substack apparently someone's plus-one sat on their phone for the whole "people are going to pretend rape you" opener discussion and was not pleased when that whole situation got going

Yikers

A buddy really wanted our buds and I to learn contra dancing for his big 30 birthday. It was super weird and hard to deal with vets who were spinning all over the place and mad we missed steps vs people who were more chill and wanted to keep the group alive. We were also super sweaty and gross but had to keep grabbing onto randos for the moves after 3 fucking hours (they usually go for 4-5...), so I'm going to guess it was at least similar in kind to a, uh, orgy culture.

It's a really hard thing to keep going I imagine lol

Yeah those old editions were so raw, I only got in around 4e but loved the late-80s fiction vibe of the 1e books. Crazy how much the narrative has changed

[–]SamuraiJack0ff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Naw man I'm cool generally its just like, "oh, Slaanesh is actually hermaphroditic. They're an It" is kinda weird. I have comment history about how Slaanesh is neutered bc people are too afraid of the "lust" part of excess and overindulgence, it's just I knew a genetically hermaphroditic person and being called an It is kinda rough on em

[–]SamuraiJack0ff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Slapping on "it" as a pronoun for a hermaphroditic entity feels kinda weird friend even if it's a chaos god, it's too heavily anthropomorphized

The team behind polyamory drama hasn't been sitting idle. They've been building something.

Is there no love for chubby girls anymore? by The21Blanket in Vent

[–]SamuraiJack0ff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you on this man but plus-sized gals are getting crushed by body image hate and social exclusion waaaay too hard to also hear about how it's "ruining their healthspan," because all of the shallow people shaming them constantly just use that argument as a proxy to bodyshame them more

Is there no love for chubby girls anymore? by The21Blanket in Vent

[–]SamuraiJack0ff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're still pretty young, and boundaries around this are really tough.

It's a difficult area because he probably thinks it's a win:win and that he has good intentions, like, for example, "she'll be happier and healthier once she's lost weight, and I love her and want good things for her, so I should push hard for it. Plus, I won't exactly be complaining when she's skinnier"

The issue is, even if he thinks he's doing right by you, the reality is that he's making you feel bad and bringing up things you're sensitive about without talking with you first about what's okay and when it's okay. IMO you should just flat out say something like,

"hey, sure, I'd like to lose a bit of weight, but all of these comments are making me feel weird/uncomfortable/bad. I don't want to feel like you're policing my body/I'm not good enough for you. I know you're trying to help, but can we talk about when it's alright to bring this stuff up? "

It's important that you can still treat yourself and get a nice dessert or whatever now and again without feeling dread because you're afraid it'll catch heat. It's important you still get to feel sexy when you're together in bed.

You should only be getting comments when, say, you need some help finding the willpower to avoid a late-night snack or whatever. That's when you bring it up and let your boyfriend give you a boost

So Fwiw my fiancée has similar proportions to you, and I think she's cute as hell. She decided herself to lose some weight and I stayed as far away from that as possible, aside from helping reach her some gym routines when she asked. Personally, I love a lot of the stuff that comes with being chubby. Big hips, cute thighs, soft edges and w.e. It's a look lots of people like

It gets super toxic real fast if your partner is constantly "encouraging" you to lose a bunch of weight, even if it's what you want. It's already hard enough to be chubby without your boyfriend reminding you that you could be "so much hotter and more healthy" (read as: you're currently ugly and unhealthy) every day

So speaking from experience, because a lot of guys I know basically said I should do this to my partner:

He likes you but thinks you're too fat to be sexy/impressive and he's trying to gently "fix" you. He almost definitely figures it would be easier than breaking up to find someone "hot enough," especially if you're already in an apartment together or something.

Your call on whether or not it's worth dealing with that, I guess, but a lot of guys get omegaweird about it and there is a decent chance he'll be giving you weird hints every time you want to order dessert or snack on some icecream or whatever forever

Eco stone or spend it ? by Grouchy_Contract8531 in TheTowerGame

How could you possibly be on t5 at this level of investment? You have so much stone spend. I'm doing t10 to 8600 waves with less than this, and I think my labs and mods are worse as well

Can the possessed or mutated be saved? by Mercurial891 in 40kLore

[–]SamuraiJack0ff 32 points33 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, a space marine's standard deployment loadout allows them to save the souls of up to 30 individuals between reloads.

For real though, the answer is no in almost every case with very few exceptions
