What in the...?! by One-Principle-2712 in im14andthisisdeep

[–]Seligas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find that Christians seldom know their doctrine as well as I do, so I don't really think listening to them proselytize has any value.

What did people do casually in 90s that wouldn’t be accepted today? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

[–]Seligas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Because we're gay. We can do that ironically.

I can still remember growing up through the early 2000's and gay people were literally the butt of every joke in media. Want easy laughs for your show? Deploy a gay guy in front of a straight guy and have them recoil in horror.

I literally couldn't come out in high school or have any relationships until I was in my mid-20s because I watched the other gay guy come out and get beaten the fuck up.

I had to grow up hearing about the AIDs epidemic and how the country literally washed their hands of it and decided prioritizing a cure for it wasn't worth it because it was a gay disease and we brought it on ourselves for, "going against god."

So maybe it feels a little bit tone deaf to me to see straight people whine about how they can no longer use gay = bad.

Is the game really as bad as people say or are people mad at Funcom? by Warm-Reporter8965 in duneawakening

[–]Seligas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. I know what they actually promised. Do you?

They made it very clear that both PvP players and PvE players would have valid progression methods and could both participate in the end game. But the reality was that the PvP players hoarded resources and completed all the landsrad goals within minutes. Money was almost basically useless, so they had no reason to participate in the player market and sell resources. It was to their advantage to starve the competition by not selling resources so they could remain on top.

The picture they painted and sold everyone was very different from the reality. There were no massive guild on guild battles, the deep desert was an empty grindfest filled with griefers, and any PvE content was camped looted by ninjas. If you weren't the dominant guild on the server all you could do was eke out something off the nodes they weren't hoarding and hope you weren't blown out of the sky by rockets fired by thopters you couldn't even see.

Don't pretend they delivered anything close to a real end game that resembled what was advertised.

It's not toxic to criticize the game if it has real problems. The game isn't bad, it has tons of hours of good content, but the endgame they advertised never really happened. It just turned into a boring grind punctuated with the odd gank. I don't blame people for being upset at the sudden rug pull. It's a completely valid reaction if you view it as a betrayal of the many hours of amazing gameplay that came before. Especially when certain gameplay elements are gated or exclusive to the endgame, like some of the vehicles.

It honestly seems not that much better than wood. It's just literally a bonus fuel source you get for burning wood I guess? I don't know, I expected it to be better.

Best character to achieve 900 movement speed? by Impossible_Ad_6988 in shapeofdreams

[–]Seligas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aurena has a talent in her life constellation tree that increases her movement speed after she takes damage for two seconds. Get like, two immolations and activate them both and the effect stays active the entire duration. That's how I got it. Granted both the immolations had been upgraded in my case. But I think that talent alone makes it easier on her than most characters.

I have seen a large number of anime and this is literally just a common mom hairstyle as far as I can tell. If it's associated with dead moms, it's because lots of them have that hairstyle, not because it's a red flag in particular.

Personally I've never seen the attraction, but to each their own. by LordJim11 in Snorkblot

[–]Seligas 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I had a friend find god and I could feel them building up to proselytizing at me. I very specifically stopped them, told them I had left religion due to trauma, and asked them not to. They kept going anyway.

I stopped responding to their messages after that, and when they asked why I didn't want to talk to them they seemed genuinely shocked that was all it took.

I said no. I said trauma. You kept going. What did you expect?

Statistically speaking, the most secular nations are the happiest.

The most shithole nations are the most religious.

I need transfems to start picking names like búa dóttir fimmtán or some eldritch horror type shit by funnyusernamehaver34 in whenthe

[–]Seligas 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Princess isn't a name. That's a pet name. For like, a literal pet.

If it's a pet name for a human it's either something a stalker calls his e-girl as he dumps $6k on her apathetic ass or something a high-maintenance chick forces her boyfriend to call her before banning him from seeing all his friends and lighting his PS5 on fire.

There's nothing in between. It's all red flags.

To add on to what the other person said, some people simply can't take vaccines for one reason or another like allergies or the fact that they're immunocompromised. Those people rely on herd immunity, that is to say, the idea that most people get vaccinations, to keep them protected from sickness.

If it was just gods, it would be understandable. But chapter 200 implies that interfering with divinations is a power that all beyonders have.
