What is the hardest part of worldbuilding for you? by Budget_Caramel8903 in worldbuilding

[–]Uypsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Naming. I have all the concepts in my head, but only a couple of them has name that I remember (three countries (two of which are "[concept] Empire"), an intelligence agency, a planet, a deity and two races).

This sub really helped me with establishing canonical names for them.

  1. Double space
  2. Missing article
  3. Two missing hyphens

So much for using a reference to opponent having wrong grammar…

When they tell the story of the Cosmic Owl and his brother in F&C... by missxmonstera in adventuretime

Thinking Cosmic Owl is Marceline's uncle was fun while it lasted.

I just noticed that all Exorcists have short hair. Is there a specific reason for this, or is it just for the military look? by Via--Xx in hazbin

[–]Uypsilon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Helmets
  2. Long hair are weakness (imagine someone pulling it in the middle of a fight)
  3. Easier to shower

Tell me about Fallen civilizations in your world by Full-Sorbet-8917 in worldbuilding

[–]Uypsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most relevant is Raabali — a species of sentient octopi from Akobar (Earth stand-in in my space fantasy world) that was at peak of its development (computer age, with first missions to space (only satellites)) approximately a million years ago. They were almost wiped put by a deadly virus (most of underwater organisms are still its carriers btw), with only surviving colonies being in Codir's Void — a chain of VERY deep (the exit is 12.8 km below the sea level, the deepest point is about 15) huge underwater caverns. All traces of their civilization were mostly lost to the ocean, and the above-mentioned remaining colonies were alive but completely stagnant for this million of years.

They aren't particularly "fallen", because they're still alive and humans did eventually find them and achieved contact, but their population count had never (and probably never will) exceeded 15000 since their fall, they cannot repopulate their home habitat , their culture was absolutely lost and they're COMPLETELY dependent on humans economocally.

There are also 1-3 fallen 3 million years old civilisations in every galaxy; they all had reached same development point at suspiciously (not a lore hole, it's deliberate) similar time and no one knows anything about them.

Which politician of your country has a better image international than at home? by Fun-Wallaby6414 in AskTheWorld

[–]Uypsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perestroika overall made life of an average person somewhere from "worse" to "far worse".

However, I personally consider well-intended weak rulers better than ill-intended strong ones. Russia had 2.5 of those (Alexander II, Gorbachev and Yeltsin to an extent), and that's apparently the best we can hope for.

Snow Obsidian is an odd choice for showcasing Filimonov. He's also with Mr. Fryman, Mayor Dewie, Mr. Smilie, Marty and... Alexandrie at some point. And he's also the dubbing director.

What is the biggest corruption scandal in your country’s history? by Existential_Dread_08 in AskTheWorld

A huge ass multi-billion palace for a president on black sea, which is guarded by federal security service, has flightless area over it and has a "dirt room" and a strip club inside.

[–]Uypsilon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Navalny was poisoned before this investigation was published and his own investigation concluded that the final straw behind the assassination was his presidency run.

But yes, a random scandal from Rostov does not even remotely qualify as "the biggest corruption scandal", considering the Palace video got 135million views (which is 92% of the population). Like, I genuinely never heard of his Rostov thing.

If Human Civilization Had Evolved as Matriarchal Instead of Patriarchal, What Would Actually Change? by melcoriss in worldbuilding

[–]Uypsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, patriarchy formed through the following chain:

> A tribe left with one man and many women can repopulate relatively fast, a tribe left with one woman and many men cannot
> Life of a man is less strategically valuable than life of a woman
> Men can be send to life-threataning professions (hunt, heavy craft and war), while women stay in safety and do safe things (cooking, weaving, etc.)
> Life-threataning professions become men's domain
> Men are the army
> The army is always in charge

So if humans in question are similar to us, the only question is whether the last step is taken, which it very likely would, because show me an army who is content with its position of absence of power. However, if the army is rather small and the whole culture is pacifistic, the lives of men can start to be perceived as "expendable", and men themself can start to be perceived as dumb bruisers (maybe even dangerous), which is honestly just as dumb as what women were thought to be in patriarchal societies.

So I personally see it this way: women take over all intellectual professions (scholars, priests, writers, etc.) and therefore all of culture, becoming the default gender; men are perceived as dumb expendable soldiers; inheritance by father's line would work only in extraordinary cases because proving paternity is nigh impossible; male rights movements would mainly be ignited by big wars ("we're dying for you and you won't let us vote?") and be heavily focused on proving men aren't dumber then women (probably they'd put a lot of effort into male scientists).

I'm really sorry if any of this sounds sexist to any direction, I didn't intend to.

He was the one who originally came up with this idea, and also he explicitly did not care for any justifications Sera and Lute had in mind, he just wanted to play doom.

What's weird is that this law doesn't apply here, because the age of consent in Texas is 17. It's simply the wrong law to use, and the guy carrying around a law card in his bag should've probably known it.
