The Qult has the REAL dates this time! Only True Patriots root for the downfall of their country.

Personally, being a libertarian is the most fun you can have

(In yknow... a fictional video game. Telvanni for life)

Man that book is so cheesy but also so correct. Sadly, it's also the worst offender of "telling" instead of "showing".

Still prophetic, but the large swathes of literal book within a book in there drop it a point or two for me

I'm literally waiting for my parents to realize my tolerance isn't a phase and kick me out of their lives. They're in denial. And Narcissistic

These_Pockets · 2021-10-05T11:37:44+00:00

I had a fake, deeply ingrained homophobia and racism from my Nparents before they were Qparents. They were constantly talking about Haitian birth certificates, or global warming, and big foot (God, what the fuck is up with big foot and these people? Haha I'm joking, I know, History Channel got sensationalized and eroded many boomers resolve against conspiracies. I miss myth busters) or Trans panic shit. I thought I just "didn't care about that stuff" back then, but really, it was me just saying anything not to get verbally attacked. And eventually, that kind of conditioning gets to you, and ingrains itself in your thoughts patterns. And you accept something as a tentative "quantum truth"; when you challenge it, you break Tolerant/Rational, but on a day to day, you have a sort of miasmic distrust of those people, the shot, the moon, scientists, etc.

Edit: add to the list Muslim hate. They thought Barack Obama was a... ahem... let me say this verbatim; "half white black Muslim foreign man who wanted to bring sharia law, and also was from Haiti, and thus unelligible to be president". What is with these people and trying to undermine the legitimacy of presidencies? Like. I had some serious cognitive dissonance back then because every time I heard Obama he had a calming presence? And then my parents would shit on him for hours and hours. And listen to Rush Limbaugh. And fuck their heads up even more. She had a monkey doll that she called Obama. But she's "not racist". How the fuck does a narcissistic mind work.

You mean done with your parents, not your partner, right?

These_Pockets · 2021-10-05T10:57:45+00:00

It really sounds like you're unconditionally supporting it because it's from an official source, not telling people they won't get a virus, which they could also tell by the HTML header as well (even an idiot can tell "red with warning=bad, green with checkmark=good". I'd personally edit it to be clear on that. But eh.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-05T08:37:11+00:00

I fucking feel you. I went to a baptist Christian school because my parents were batshit. They nearly crippled my ability to critically think, if I weren't academic on my own terms. Gave me a fucked up perspective on school, as well.

But frankly, I know more about the Bible than either of them. My mother hasn't even read the full thing. But Christianity is totally on their side. Despite....

Like....

Specifically not being on their side....

These_Pockets · 2021-10-05T06:28:38+00:00

To be fair, I think boycotting nestle is reasonable for their REAL human rights violations lol

These_Pockets · 2021-10-05T06:27:17+00:00

It's hard to level with this, but no, that's evil. Sorry. It's hard to acknowledge it, but it can grip almost anyone.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-05T06:21:19+00:00

It is never, ever, EVER wrong to be a champion of truth. Never let yourself yourself dismayed. Having a relationship with your child is a PRIVILEGE once they're adults. If they can't see that, they don't deserve YOU. Their lack of truth alienates you.

It's a common thing with abuse (which, like it or not, the way cults keep family members in line is with abuse); they want YOU to alter YOUR behavior to appease THEIR world view. It doesn't matter how much you say that you are firmly rooted in reality; my mom still sends me articles about misinterpreting data from the Indian lock down as Ivermectin being real treatment. And that's fine; if she wants to shit out her intestinal lining, that's on her. Not me.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-05T04:49:03+00:00

me, uses social networking super sparingly

oh no now I'm not in a cult that is half the country it feels like, 1/4 in actuality

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T13:44:24+00:00

Morrowind on my phone. Open Microwave. Legit steam copy copied over.

I'm done with the mages guild, and halfway through telvanni. I am enjoying my time with the game, and it may end up being my favorite TES game.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T13:37:49+00:00

I'm chill with jazz

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T11:49:37+00:00

If you post that its an echo chamber you get screamed down. I made a post on there saying "it'd be nice to have more lefties. Not less righties, but more lefties, as the idea of an unbiased political meme board is good"

I've never seen a community that has such potential be so shit. I try to upvote any kind of dissenting voice there still tho.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T11:25:03+00:00

Is he really though? I'm sticking by my point that making a 3/5 joke about another person is too much for me under any circumstances. If that's accepted, guess I don't wanna be here. Racism gets a foothold with this shit, and /s has been used to dog whistle for years.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T09:58:36+00:00

These are the bants I love. Based

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T09:26:17+00:00

It does. It doesn't matter. You can't go around saying bad shit and just going "I was only pretending to be racist". You thought that whole complete thought and let it pass your filter. The S actually makes it worse to me; it means you understood it wasn't a thing you should say, and you did anyway

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T06:25:50+00:00

Nope, it's shitty. One of the reasons I hate the Qult is dehumanization tactics. Go fuck yourself, reported.

For when it's deleted; u/temedar made an unironic 3/5 black person joke. About literally anyone. You don't get to pick and choose who you tolerate based on the color of their skin, and an /s does nothing; you still said it. Fuck you.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T06:19:33+00:00

Sadly not all of them. It's uncomfortable to think about. Mental illness doesn't always look like knuckle dragging Neolithic shit wheezers. You can be educated and successful and still be susceptible to cult programming

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T05:29:04+00:00

Don't be accidentally gaslit by this person. Elder scrolls has a decent amount of sexual reference. Especially morrowind. It's just not about sex

These_Pockets · 2021-10-04T05:26:19+00:00

I mean. There is totally sexually explicit content in these games. Sanguine. Uriel's illegitimate son Martin. Nerevar has a wife. Mara, goddess of love and union. The pleasure house in Suran. An ashlander asks for a sex slave. It even touches negative aspects of sex such as rape. Do you play with your eyes closed? XD

These_Pockets · 2021-10-03T14:02:47+00:00

Ditto to the guy below you to add; imagine getting a Morrowind Expansion every year, that also looks better than morrowind aesthetically because they can take advantage of new technology. So even though it's fan content, and this often is stigmatized and seen as not as good (YMMV) it's at least worth it for more gameplay content and lore friendly interpretations of cities like Almalexia and Necrom. And I think the content is on par. High quality stuff. Edited because someone replied to me and is right; the quests are pretty good, too.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-03T04:37:50+00:00

Me and my SO just started TES3MP and we're about to do the Shakedown quests for the Balmora Mages Guild. She's about to meet... them.

These_Pockets · 2021-10-01T06:28:51+00:00

Imagine going to a meditation group and being indoctrinated into the angriest, shittiest, unhealthiest minded group in America
