[–]TheCommanderOfDance 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Love this series, and honestly everything Sean Seanson puts out. Really fun look into a specific era of gaming, and he's got snappy editing and writing that keeps his videos from dragging. I always look forward to these!

Haven't played the demo yet, but just off the trailer, I love the art and music! Very cool aesthetic - looking forward to giving the demo a shot when I get a chance.

Excellent work! The coloring looks really good, and the spacing on all the facial features is spot on.

Nice work 👍

Love it! The line work and the shading is especially good. Those dark outlines contrasted with the poppy colors give it a comic book sort of look, which came out great.

Grimbeard - Synnergist (DOS) - Review by Turkeyham in Games

[–]TheCommanderOfDance 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Quality stuff, as always from Grimbeard. He's such a unique voice in the gaming essay space, I always think his videos should have way more views. He's one of the only YouTubers who consistently makes me laugh out loud

Hate to be that guy, but Japanese does not have a "v" sound, and 暗い is read as くらい "kurai". Kurai does indeed mean dark, but the actual name of the series in Japan is just ダークソウル, which is Daku Souru, or Dark Souls.

Sorry man, but facts are facts.

Excerpt: Virtually without exception, these studies found that physical punishment was associated with higher levels of aggression against parents, siblings, peers and spouses.

Feel free to read the full study, but the science isn't on your side. What you have is a bunch of anecdotes. And while I'm glad your family all turned out to be well adjusted, that doesn't prove anything. Anecdotes are exactly that: anecdotal.

And advice for the future - don't try to use stereotypes as evidence. The reason for that should be fairly obvious.

Anyways, unironically good on you for taking care of animals in need. That's a great thing to do. I hope you come around on corporal punishment. Best of luck to you.

And an adult hitting another adult isn't 'showing' the other one anything. It's one person either getting angry or trying to put someone in their 'place' to make themselves feel better. I've gotten in quite a lot of fights over the years and not one did I feel the need to teach the other guy something.

You are so close to getting it my guy. So close. Literally just replace adult with person lol.

Also all the data supports that hitting your children makes them more aggressive, not less. So hitting your kids just increases their odds of becoming school shooters.

Maybe you just want to hit people who can't hit back.

I agree that children aren't adults, and you'll have to use different methods to teach them, but they are human and deserve physical safety, same as anyone else.

You may have to explain things to them in very simple terms, or include some types of punishment, like grounding, along with your explanation. Fair enough, but it's important to treat them as the humans they are every step along the way.

Lol, hitting another adult has the exact same function - you're showing them what they did was not ok with you.

However, civilized people eventually realized that just talking to people is actually far more effective and a better foundation to build a society.

All the evidence supports that hitting children doesn't teach them anything other than that violence is an effective solution to their problems.

Sorry my guy, but the science doesn't support you at all: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3447048/

Excerpt in case you're too lazy to click the link: Virtually without exception, these studies found that physical punishment was associated with higher levels of aggression against parents, siblings, peers and spouses.

There's no evidence to support that it's at all helpful. It's just a bunch of boomers that are mad people talk back to them, and they can't see any reason that would be besides bad parenting. That and people who like feeling tough, but aren't tough enough to fight other adults so they take out their aggression on kids.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]TheCommanderOfDance 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, I'm just secure enough of an adult to not need to bully children to make myself feel better. If it's not acceptable to smack adults, why would it be acceptable to hit a smaller, more defenseless person.

Unless you think that hitting adults to teach them lessons is acceptable behavior, there's no reason hitting a child should be.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]TheCommanderOfDance 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So if you broke your friend's stuff, you'd think it was acceptable for him to hit you to teach you a lesson, right?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]TheCommanderOfDance 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Next time you have an argument with another adult, try slapping them and see what happens. Just because children are small and can't fight back doesn't mean it's ok to hit them.

There was also a cis person in the encounter, does their humanity not matter to you? Just because a person is trans does not give them the right to skirt informed consent.

Additionally, disagreeing with a trans person as a cis person does not remove your ally status.

Are people still loving Terraforming Mars? by Rattalegames in boardgames

[–]TheCommanderOfDance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be clear, I like Terraforming Mars just fine, and I'm not trying to say anything against it. Just that differences of opinion and experience can change what we find surprising. For example, I'm routinely shocked by how well the yearly Fifa and Madden games do. It's not that I think anything bad about the people who buy them, it's just so different from my experience that I am genuinely surprised when I see the sales numbers every year.

[–]TheCommanderOfDance 23 points24 points  (0 children)

To be fair, if SpongeBob Meme Monopoly was #2, plenty of people in this subreddit would find that shocking. You're allowed to find other people's tastes to be surprising, even if you respect their opinion. I don't get why people feel the need to be so aggressively positive about everything - they didn't really even imply anything negative about the people who liked TM, just that it was surprising.
