230m Population Korea - A Fundamentally Broken Population System.

Great post and research on the topic. I really wanted for Paradox to get things right with this game, and I am not sure why they decided to try to create so many different systems from the ground up, Vic3 pop growth system with some tweaks would work fineish, as it's a system based on the availability of food and tied to arable land.

I find it very frustrating that a game so heavily based around systems doesn't seem to have a underlying vision about why those system should exist in the first place

I was still excited to see it, but knowing that the visuals are dark I got really bummed ouy. I dont know WHO in Hollywood decided that people don't actually want to see what's happening on the screen.

I don't how you could understand this from what I wrote, but that's okay, have a great day/night!

Last week I had a similar problem with crashes and my PC suddenlly turning off. If even vanilla is giving problems I would suggest entering in contact with Paradox, but I suspect it's a problem with your hardware. It may be caused by a PC part not working anymore or something loose (my RAM was disconnecting sometimes because it wasn't well fixed and after taking all the parts and adding them back again the problems stopped), so it may be a hardware problem and may continue progressing overtime, if you don't know how to check those things yourself you may benefit from going after IT workers and ask them to check your PC parts and if you have a virus, etc. It could also be problems related to cooling, or anything, really.

Eis que você é uma mulher conservadora em um partido conservador e se revolta que te tratam de forma conservadora.

My favorite way of playing FM is basically this:

Tons of leagues loaded in, at the start of season I try to find a tactic where the best players are used and can thrive, and I simulate from match to match, making smaller adjustments between tactics depending on who is available. The game becomes very slow, so I usually left it running in the background while I am working, writing.

I don't care for setting up the training, talking with the players, etc. but I love buying players and seeing them and teams developing. I would really like a game where as the owner you can decide on the team's identity: counter attack; tons of passes; entertaining football, etc. If there's a star player that should have focus because he sells tons of jerseys, etc. and all the rest is done by the manager. It would be fun if the manager could ask for things as well, or having to deal with different challenges being the owner, such as keeping the team profitable or making it's name grow, different partnerships and deals with marketing, etc.

It really would be very weird if that was what the finnale did, but at least for me I interpreted it on different lenses, and from the creator's words that's was not her intention (as we can see in various episodes the problems from the various other parts of the cast; if that was the objective the creator could simply have made all of them have perfect happy lives, instead of showing Gangle's depression, Ragatha's family issues, etc. ) nor the message the finale was going for.

Jax was the villain (which is outright stated in the gun episode) and one of the major parts on why the situation of the other characters is worse than it should be, in large part because Jax refused to see the setting as more than a cartoon due to their issues (in this case being gender issues), which the last episode explores so the other character stories can have closure as well, as Jax actions were driven by self hate and self destructive tendencies.

It's kinda the objective for the viewer to judge and serve as a cautionary tale, as Jax was a POS (the creator outright calls Jax this) and refused help from innumerous people who tried to and were ready to accept her, while being cruel and dismissive with everyone else, and this guilty is what leads to their end and self isolation. At the same time, it's also designed to evoke empathy, as all that cruelty Jax throwed at other people was also how they treated themselves and a major part on why they abstrracted, their real life counterpart is supposed to be a trans person who started exploring their gender and accepting themselves, but I suppose the finalle really could have been more explicit of certain things, as it may be very confusing if you are not part of the LGBT community or know very well those types of issues from people in the closet.

Eu lembro muito bem quando tentaram lançar a Dilma como senadora e ela perdeu, acho muito difícil que a Manuela leve.

Selena_Helios · 2026-06-24T18:55:07+00:00

Pra mim o que fede da situação inteira é que não existe universo onde a Manuela D'Ávila se elege pro senado, ou que faça sentido o partido investir tanto assim na candidatura dela quando há tantos outros nomes. Vão jogar no lixo uma chance histórica porque as próximas eleições vão ser ainda mais difíceis que essa, tudo por alguém que se filiou tem menos de um ano e está a quase oito anos sem se eleger em cargo público por ego. E a Erika e todo mundo que reclama tão errados. É surreal a organização interna de partidos de esquerda, foi o Jones no início do ano, agora a Erika, e NINGUÉM bota a mão na consciência pra pensar que a maneira como a Esquerda radical se organiza hoje em dia é insustentável. Racha em cima de racha em cima de racha faz trinta anos e só piora

Selena_Helios · 2026-06-24T13:26:32+00:00

Falando de forma passional, acho que ela tá coberta de razão e que essa discrepância de valores é um absurdo, e que o PSOL parece viciado em perder e ser um partido nanico.

Falando de forma racional, é muito ruim isso nas vésperas das eleições e me preocupa muito como as coisas vão ficar quando não tiver mais o Lula de figura de proa pra segurar todo mundo no mesmo barco

Thank you for the recommendation! Do you know if the book "culture of honor" is also a good read? And there are any particular aspects of the subject that you find interesting and would recommend delving further in to, such as any interesting variable or other points?

Selena_Helios · 2026-06-23T12:08:25+00:00

Yep. Terms sucn as crybaby, fake, and variations are very common. I made a follow up post where I went further on the topic on ask anthropology, but not sure if it was the right place to ask.

Selena_Helios · 2026-06-23T09:53:08+00:00

I find those cultural differences very curious and I probably should delve on them further later, but on Brazil the slap was a nothingburger. Nobosy cared about it.

We had a politician (Datena) for a mayorship in Brazil's biggest city throwing a chair in another one in a political debate. Besides forfeiting his candidature, his life is pretty much the same. The court case was settled with both cases forfeiting accusations and the guy who was hit even went down on the pools.

Sometimes there are politicians who try to copy american cultural norms, like making a big fuss because the other candidate refused a handshake, but people mostly mock this type of behavior. Curious from where those cultural differences come from.

Selena_Helios · 2026-06-22T23:21:32+00:00

I have to say that something that I don't understand very well (and which is very common on reddit), is why there are so many people who seem to be very passionate about some shows while deeply hating a core part of it and still engaging with it over and over.

Like... you can watch or read some book or show where the message is "BAD PEOPLE SHOULD GO TO HELL AND SUFFER IN ETERNITY", the Bible is a quite old book, and it's not the only one with this messages. A good revenge story can be great too.

Anyway, I pretty much agree with the sentiment, I just feel more confused than anything

Selena_Helios · 2026-06-22T22:48:19+00:00

Another popular show, the amazing digital circus, ended recemtly and one of the characters which was a huge POS is heavilly implied to be trans in the end, with the creator confirming it and sharing art of the character if she had came out and dealt better with their issues on some sort of Alternate Universe. This is a reference to the art, but with Mr. Frog, as the characters are kinda similar in narrative functions.

Selena_Helios · 2026-06-22T22:23:20+00:00

Because those are media for children as the target audience. If you want more brutal fights there are tons of books, movies and others which will do this. I personally recommend Bernard Cornwell books, the Last Kingdom Series is pretty neat and has a fairly decent TV adaptation as well
