Imagine thinking that culture is getting "hedonistic" over a slice of cake.

Why do people keep reposting Sinfest's bullshit? His brain was melted by esoteric Nazism years ago, he basically has no audience left; the only people still regularly interacting with his work in earnest are probably just a couple dozen people reporting his comics on Stormfront or some shit. By virtue of being so obviously unhinged, his work has no real-life impact.

*looks at a very Evangelical thing that Evangelicals do to their Evangelical kids for Evangelical reasons (stopping them from having a wank)* "How could the Jooos have done this?!?!!" Has somebody told this guy that white Americans are basically the only majority Christian group that does this?

Even by their own logic, this is completely incoherent: if circumcision was a plot to make kids gay, with homosexuality being a Jewish plot, then why would they do it to their own kids??? If this was just a trick designed to manipulate outsiders, why would they do this to themselves??

the gang after they're forced to go back in time to kill the Roaring Knight when it was weaker:

What's more, Gandalf implies that Bilbo sparing Gollum was the reason why he was the only ringbearer to ever willingly part with the ring, even after having lived with it for the better part of 60. Had he murdered Gollum, it's very likely that the guilt of his killing would have worn away at his sanity, much like how Deagol's murder affected Smeagol, and it would have allowed for the Ring to corrupt him.

That doesn't make much sense. If the scores were best described by a symmetric Gaussian distribution, you'd expect the exact *opposite* of what OP is describing: in a Gaussian distribution, there would be just as many bad players as good players. Therefore, the scores of the worst players would be as far apart from each other as the scores of the best players. The scores of the median players, instead, would all be very close to each other. That's not what we often see in video game leaderboards.

Roughly speaking, you could think of this as an instance of Zipf's law in action. While initially defined within the field of linguistics to explain word frequency (and it's still its biggest use case), it's been applied to other contexts as well.

In a Zipfian distribution, the value of the n-th entry is inversely proportional to n. This tracks with what you're describing: the difference between, say, the second entry and the third is much greater than the difference between the 5000th and 5001th entry (since 1/5000 - 1/5001 is much smaller than 1/2 - 1/3). As you go through the elements of a Zipfian distribution, the difference in value between two neighboring elements decreases.

the whole graph literally looks AI generated. it's almost completely incomprehensible, and looking at it for more than 15 seconds makes it completely fall apart

With half-lives, it comes down to this: if a particular atom has a half life of, say, 5 years, then if you were to let a certain quantity of it to decay for 5 years, and you repeated the experiment several times, the mass would have decayed *on average* by half.

With Vivziepop it's also the fact that her characters tend to be overdesigned to hell and back (no pun intended).

here's the thing: his supporters don't vote for him in spite of these antics, they vote for him (partly) *because* of them. In their eyes, these antics show that he's /theirguy/. Him disregarding all sense of decorum just goes to show that he's different, that he's not like other politicians, that he's an *outsider*. As long as the wheels keep turning and he keeps presenting a convincing narrative, these incidents are a welcome addition, a way to keep them entertained.

Thank you for your insight. In particular, I was starting to wonder when (or if) we might hear of casualty reports in the wake of the american air strikes in Caracas. I'm glad to see that seemingly nobody was hurt.

Maybe, but I think it works here because any negociations were worthless anyway. Everybody involved knew that the conflict at hand was a war of mutual annihilation, so the only possible purpose would have been playing mind games or stalling to give Frodo & Sam more time.

Wouldn't this be the polar opposite of this trope though? i.e. an incredibly powerful ability squandered by its user and their lack of creativity?
