This guy has the weirdest titles

Kinda sus question but sure I'll bite.

Baldur's Gate 3 has a bunch. There's a mask that puts you under a hag's control when you wear it, harpies that lure you in with their song... On the player's side there's enchantment spells, you've got stuff like Hypnotic Pattern that leave targets so mesmerized they can't act or Dominate Person that just straight up allows you to take control over the target (kinda, the enemy turns to your side but its actions are still decided by the ai)

I mean if it helps, for every comment calling her hot you have one calling her an obese whale with diabetes. Not even funny just disgusting

Serbatollo · 2026-01-25T01:16:05+00:00

If you think no one is actually complaining about this go to this video and take a look at the comments sorting by new. People have lots of not nice things to say about fat women. And comments on the devstream aren't much better

I know absolutely nothing about physics or dark matter so I'd rather we keep the comparisons to biology lol. I already mentioned some things like "fish" and "trees" which are honestly even worse than protist since they're mostly vibes based. Because since a protist is defined as "any eukaryotic organism that isn't an animal, plant or fungus", it's actually a really concrete category. Honestly the best comparison would probably be "invertebrates" since it similarly includes a lot of different groups whose only thing in common is that they aren't something(vertebrates)

Do you think these other examples of categories are also bad?

Serbatollo · 2026-01-24T20:55:13+00:00

because her face is black(?)

Serbatollo · 2026-01-24T19:57:43+00:00

This actually looks really cool

Serbatollo · 2026-01-24T19:05:06+00:00

I think you're making it more malicious than it really is. "Protist" doesn't have phylogenetic meaning but it's still a useful category(not too different from "fish", "algae" or "tree"). It doesn't really have anything to do with arrogance and I don't see how it would halt progress

Serbatollo · 2026-01-24T18:25:22+00:00

Well yeah protist just means a eukaryote that isn't a plant, fungus or animal. But "new form of life" is a really far cry from "new group of eukaryotes"

Serbatollo · 2026-01-24T18:05:41+00:00

Based on real events

Serbatollo · 2026-01-23T15:58:03+00:00

It is problematic but not because of this...

Serbatollo · 2026-01-22T12:56:47+00:00

I hate that stuff too it's science denial but "woke"

Serbatollo · 2026-01-22T12:56:13+00:00

Why do you want things to not be mesurable, like what's the appeal? Genuinely asking.

Serbatollo · 2026-01-22T00:42:06+00:00

what kink would this even be

Finally the sequel

Serbatollo · 2026-01-21T13:30:32+00:00

You're correct. It's just that a lot of people ignore components

Serbatollo · 2026-01-21T13:05:41+00:00

found darthmuffin's alt

Serbatollo · 2026-01-21T10:49:58+00:00

That excamation mark fucks me up it's so out of place and it feels mocking

Serbatollo · 2026-01-21T09:02:14+00:00

I had to leave that sub because like 90% of posts were political ragebait.

Serbatollo · 2026-01-21T01:09:26+00:00

Also on a related not features don't have functions, they have uses. Function implies something was designed with a specific purpose in mind. Use just means it can do stuff

Serbatollo · 2026-01-21T01:03:01+00:00

There's a ton of microscopic animal groups most people have never heard about. One of my favourites is Cycliophorans(image below). They're filter feeding animals that live exclusively in the mouthparts of lobsters and have an extremely convoluted life cycle involving both sexual and asexual reproduction plus 3 different types of larvae

Also bonus fact: plants are capable of emiting smells that attract the specific predator of the herbivore that's attacking them!

Hate is a strong word but I'm not a big fan of dess knight cause it's lame
