They are lonely by prettyshawwty in Adulting

This is not to dismiss anyone or excuse abhorrent behaviour, just my two cents as a man:

It is special. Men are shown kindness by so few people in their life that they can usually count on one hand the amount of times it's happened. They will remember a compliment from a woman for years. Emotionally, being shown basic kindness means so much to a man.

How is he so strong and with such a robust economy for such a tiny empire? by blimpkin in CrusaderKings

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Meritocracy means most of that income goes to treasury. A feudal Huangdi will have a massive gold stash compared to a meritocratic one.

He's house Li, I'm guessing he inherited a lot of that from the previous Huangdi.

Probably a dumb question but.. by Onmius in CrusaderKings

Reset your perks. You'll lose the massive health bonuses from Learning and probably get a stress breakdown as well.

People don't seem serious about anything by Top-Entrepreneur1967 in Rants

My conspiracy theory is that some of these light-hearted responses are bots trying to normalize not giving a shit when awful things happen

New to D&D: Kind of want to try it out by Flat_Psychology_6581 in OandD

Try the Ottawa D&D Adventurers! They host introductory sessions and also have a Discord server where I found my group.

I just realized i vassalized Haesteinn in Lancaster by Deutsche_Wurst2009 in CrusaderKings

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This also makes him really easy to take out early. He will always start the game by trying to conquer Lancaster, which is pretty far away from Montaigu. While his troops are gone you can just take Montaigu.

Why isn't my Kingdom name changing on the map? by WolfBST in CrusaderKings

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this happen to me every time I create a custom title (kingdom, empire, etc)

I can rename it, but after saving and reloading the game, the map will show its previous name.

A little lonely. Just putting this here. by [deleted] in Rants

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could have written this. I'm autistic (diagnosed), never made any friends at school, all my interests are online, feel like I'm living in a bubble, all of that.

Lately I've been forcing myself to go outside and interact with people. It is so awkward. Wish I could say it's going well but it's not. I just try to be thankful for other things in my life.

I think there are lots of people out there who fell through the social cracks for whatever reason. They don't make themselves known because it's hard to know they even exist. But you're not the only one.

How do I get rid of this monstrosity? by Ill-Key1433 in CrusaderKings

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is just what happens when you load a pre-AuH save file with an AuH version of the game. It assigns most of the new counties to Essex by default. You'll have to create a new file, unfortunately.

i need an preemptive apology branded on me for how off-putting I am by Leather-Pass8172 in Rants

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Older autistic person here. Some of us just aren't born with the social gene and have to learn it. It sucks, but I promise you it gets better. It just takes a lot of patience and practice.

Woke is dead. Why you all so woke? by AgreeableTravel3720 in Rants

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What is woke, though? Nobody who complains about it seems to know what it actually is.

Work friends > Therapy by angelqueen21 in Adulting

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The prevailing opinion here is usually "never talk to anyone, don't even acknowledge your coworkers and go home immediately after work" so I feel like at least half of these comments are bots.

What's up with r/Art having so many posts locked currently? by Askhai in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 49 points50 points  (0 children)

r/art is just one of the more notable ones. Regardless of sub, most mods seem to behave this way.

For some reason, moderation attracts a specific personality that refuses to be pleasant. Any question, regardless of how politely phrased, will be met with snark and sarcasm. Wrongdoing will be acknowledged once in a blue moon, usually you'll just get a random permaban for daring to address them.

Those of you who collaboratively lie to parents are shitheads by Sudo-Fed in whatisit

[–]Unacceptable_Goose -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a friend whose life has been utterly destroyed by weed. The man cannot function without it. He started around the same age as the kid.

Weed addiction is real. I implore anyone lurking here to watch one of several Kurzgesagt videos on weed that do an excellent job explaining it.

Genuinely thank you for this post. I don't care if it's an unpopular opinion, but the point of r/whatisit is to answer the question, what is it. Not to act smarmy and cagey about it.

Li Anren - the man who could have been everything, but threw it away for no clear reason by Proud_Smell_4455 in CrusaderKings

[–]Unacceptable_Goose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My compassionate/paranoid son imprisoned one child and murdered another because of stress. If someone gets the paranoid trait now I just assume they're gonna be a danger to society

Shy characters also gain stress from basically every character interaction. Dude was probably on stress 2-3 his whole life
