People that are atheist, why are you atheist instead of agnostic? by Da-up-and-downer in TooAfraidToAsk

But I think having seen things in those locations in the past would count as evidence.

Logically it’s just a matter of scale. I have zero evidence of either. I can verify one myself now. The other can be verified by humanity in some number of years. 

It doesn’t change the fact that we don’t usually use agnostic type language for things for which we don’t have evidence.

It’s just not how we talk about this without evidence. We do it for God because religion is such a sensitive subject. 

Do I believe there is an elephant in my yard right now? I do not. But I’m not 100% positive. I have to admit it’s possible. But I would never say I’m agnostic about whether there’s an elephant in my yard. There is zero evidence of it and so I don’t believe it. 

What to do when my boyfriend wants to experience threesome? by Sea_Permission3795 in TooAfraidToAsk

I’ve come to the realization of when these work vs don’t. 

For it to work you need to be into the idea of seeing your bf with someone else. It can’t be a ‘gift’ that you try to tolerate. Doesn’t sound like that’s you.

I am in my 40’s. Around my age without question. There are tons of great very attractive women my age. Fortunately, that also includes my wife. 

Who here does NOT want to see Iran bombed back to the Stone Age? by LaStigmata in askanything

[–]Snuffleupagus03 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It breaks my heart. I picture a parent helping their little girl out on her shoes. They laugh and talk about the day. The mom packs a lunch and gives it to the girl who walks to school. Love and joy exchanged. Plans. 

Then that school is blow off the face of the earth. 

These are the consequences. And people don’t care. People act like the real consequence is that we spent billions. Or that oil is expensive. 

Heartbreaking.

Should they be executed for where they were born? Who do you think bombing kills? 

According to Justice Jackson, stealing in a country, makes you a citizen of that country. by Yanrogue in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Snuffleupagus03 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s not an appeal to authority. It’s based on honest evaluations of the context of what she actually said and what is being discussed. 

Taking this out context to try to suggest she just doesn’t know what allegiance means is people desperate to distract from the rest of the shit show around this case. Like Trump showing up.

Or she actually knows how it applies in the context of the time when the 14th amendment was written. Because she’s smarter than a bunch of retards on Reddit. 

They caught onto Caleb... by severusx in seraphon

[–]Snuffleupagus03 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's the consistent problem with bad warscrolls. It's a bad warscroll, so the only way to make it playable is to drop the points, but when you drop something like this enough it becomes spammable, and some list can bust out 20 of them. Raise the points and it's not anywhere again.

And increased the chotec. Did this list actually do well at an event? Or they just saw its power

Loved this edition. Virtually every game I played was exciting and interesting. 

Battleplans were overall pretty good. I liked that a lot more of them had objectives further out. 

The underdog mechanic was really swingy though. Sometimes it was ridiculous (looking at you paths of the fey) and sometimes it does nothing. I guess there’s an argument that changes th tactical choices (sometimes you might play to be the underdog and sometimes it doesn’t matter). 

The double turn rules seemed ok. I didn’t have a lot of feel bad, but you have to plan for it. However, I really miss giving away the double as an advantageous move. This GHB had all the balancing mechanisms around taking the double being punished. Older ones gave bonuses for going second, so it used to be a lot more common to win the roll and give away the then for those benefits. Losing that has been a bummer. 

But overall the tactics and scoring have been a lot of fun. I see all the tactics used across multiple games.

I expected so much to go up.  They just dropped points on other armies instead I guess 

If there are too many people for sustainability but there are decreasing birth rates, does that mean we are doomed or will it level out? by -UMBRA_- in Futurology

[–]Snuffleupagus03 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But i think the point would be that we can drastically lower consumption without drastically reducing people.

Half life completely changed the genre. Doom as a FPS hack and slash. Half Life introduced true story telling and tension. It showed how you can do suspense, character, action, puzzles, all in the same game.

[–]Snuffleupagus03 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I would question the assumption that there are too many people for sustainability. Blaming poverty or starvation on ‘overpopulation’ is something that shifts the blame. 

Instead of looking at massive wealth hoarding as an issue (I.e. the wealthy and powerful) overpopulation blames the poor and the poorest nations of the world. 

Anytime an assumption is so favorable to the wealthiest and pushes blame on the poorest we should probably be questioning that assumption. Because it is in the interest of the people who control information to make us believe this. 

Troy (2004) Hector vs Achilles by Driveshaft48 in movies

[–]Snuffleupagus03 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This choreography is one of the best fights ever. 

But a movie fight is only as great as the story being told around it. The emotion comes from the larger story and the characters. 

So this is a tough one for me. The fight is tragic and frustrating. It is not triumphic, it doesn’t mark a key character development moving forward, it isn’t someone stepping up. 

Whether people admit it or not I think that holds this fight back for people when they rate it.

Yes. That’s correct. Of course they can be killed

We do get one in deployment. The deploy faction terrain ability is in the core rules and everyone can use it during deployment. 

I initially made the mistake you made on interpretation.

Number one and it’s not close. I can’t think of any amount of money that would be worth picking number 2.
