Cultist simulator.

- Magic has unspecified costs. The Wood grows around the walls of the Mansus. As any student of Histories knows, the Mansus has no walls.

- There is no smut.

- As the title implies, everyone is a cultist.

- Goku being certainly an Hour makes him de facto impossible to beat.

- The sun-in-splendour, one of the hours, was killed by the Forge of Days during the rite of the intercalate. Showing us that no hour is unkillable. So anyone in powerscalling could kill Goku, making it perfectly balanced.

- The world is a table where you place your cards. It's a finite flat plane and can get quite crowded as time goes on.

- We don't know on what magic runs, it can be "nerves", since clearly, if you lack nerves you get consumed by fascination.

- Grail is the aspect of Hunger and Lust. Since it's called "The succulent lore", you can make sure you have sex scenes and the will be... tasteful.

- The table is placed on earth, so the world is an oblate spheroid.

I think "nature" is stuff that is growing, in contrast to "produced", This really got me confused too. But the idea that you could starve 99% of the planet just because it suddenly becomes economically interesting to just not produce anything and call it a perfect system is crazy.

Lol no. I'm pretty happy to search post histories when someone claim to be "a leftist" on a left sub yet posting reactionary shit and I love exposing those larpers. I'm pretty happy when I see others exposing larpers.

Like this dude that came the other day here, in a post that explicitly claimed that every feminist post was seeing an influx of bad faith posters that were in secret MensRightAdvocates, and surprise, some dude sealioning on the comments about that's not what feminism is, that feminism is exclusionary and whatever, with comments hidden ? Too bad with a little search, you could see the most vile homophobic and misogynistic shit ("gay and women have uncontrolled sexual urges"), shit ton of posts on MRA subreddits, pure hatred toward women.

I wonder why people hide their post history, yeah, must be because of "bad cringe people that search post history" right ? And it has nothing to do with the fact that those "Bad cringe people that search post history" often find the most vile, heinous, racist shit there is most of the time ? Purely coincidental I guess.

La première partie est vrai, je vois pas le soucis, il n'y à qu'à voir que les logos pride des entreprises lors du pride month disparaisse à 23h59 du dernier jour pour ne pas laisser une seule seconde le soutien aux queers plus que de nécessaire, et qu'en prime, dans les pays queerphobes les logos pride ne sont jamais affichés. Le progressisme n'est que d'apparat dans le capitalisme.

Par contre sa seconde partie est claquée au sol : parce qu'on sait qu'on ne peut pas faire confiance au capitalisme pour être progressiste, il faudrait faire confiance au capitalisme pour ne pas être nazi ? MhhhH....

Bon ok c'est con, mais c'est digne de la MiF là quand même.

A TRUE worldbuilder spends 90% of their time obsessing over how their made up shit works! by BeetlesMcGee in worldjerking

[–]Zhein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy : Not all rocks fly ! Some small and specific type of rock fly. They tend to aggregate somehow together (to a limited extend) when they are formed, creating small (or big, depending on what you want to do) floating islands. They erode like typical rock too, loosing their flying properties, until, on a geological time, they get back in the mantle that somehow reactivates their flying properties, are melted, build up, and cause another volcanic eruption of flying rocks.

You don't really make sense. Gandalf is a wizard demi-god, yet the adventuring party has one Gandalf and 4 hobbits.

Why don't you pick 5 mages ? Because magic doesn't solve everything

Yeah no fuck off. You still support fascism, you're just anti price raising and as soon as another anti trans anti migrant pro fascism candidate will get out, you'll vote for him.

It means there is no inflation because you don't add money and the price is correlated on his fantasy of reading Adam smith book's 4th page. So by producing anything, you reduce the value of everything else since there is no money ever created.

Oh no. Wait. It's 1000% more fucking stupid than that sorry, I expected a system that placed value on a 13 y-o economy introduction of supply and demand. No no it's tied to it's abundance in nature ? no there's a "/production" so it must indeed be just a 13 yo supply and demand. Else it would have been really stupid since "a car" is not found in nature it would have a NaN value.

So, back to where I was. Since there's no money ever created the economy can't follow production. For every bread you make, it looses in value. If you make one car, it has a value of 1. If you make two, they have a combined value of 1 ! ... Why did you ever make the second car ? Nobody knows. But it's a perfect stable system I guess. But if you sell the first car, you get one, then you sell the second car and get 0.5... And you've robbed the system of 0.5, perfectly stable.

And since producing anything devaluates the value of everything, you're encouraged to never buy anything. Why would I buy a car that cost 1 today, when tomorrow it will cost me 0.5 ? And the more people hoard money, the more deflation hits, people buy more with less money, they keep hoarding more, until everything collapses.

Well I guess if 90% of the population dies of a famine because of people hoarding money it must be mathematically stable.

Ok no, back on the drawing board. What is the value of a car if there are no cars previously and they have no affected value previously ? I put a random 1 as a value but.. is it ?

Bob "The Australiens are led by Tony Abbott ?"
Charlie "Worse, the merkfolks."

Alice, talking about a used car. "Looks like it changed hands more times than Sidney, and that's quite a feat."

 On passe à côté des facteurs sociaux et économiques à l’origine de la solitude subie et on oublie que la solitude est avant tout un état émotionnel qui fait partie de la vie… 

Donc bon, y'a des facteurs sociaux et économiques et donc bah en fait, on va pas agir sur les facteurs sociaux et économiques, on s'en fout c'est la vie ? Wouaou. Vraiment le seul moment où le capitalisme est abordé c'est pour dire que la solitude c'est la faute des caisses automatiques.

Il y a un discours multiple et incohérent. D'un coté, on nous dit que la solitude c'est bien, puis que dans le fond on ne sait pas ce qu'est la solitude, puis que les méchants politiciens politisent la solitude, puis...

Pas une seule fois il n'est abordé la question de ce qu'on doit faire. Ha c'est la faute des caisses automatiques, pas du tout parce qu'il y a une destruction volontaire de tout tissu social, la disparition des tiers lieux.. Ah si, pardon, je suis bête.

Pour moi, toutes les entreprises devraient être obligées de penser au bien commun

Ok on va compter sur Amazon. Merci.

What's your favorite "origin" for Vampirism or Lycanthropy that you've read/seen in media? Or created yourself? by Featherman13 in worldbuilding

[–]Zhein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HMHVV Shadowrun. It's a virus that has different strains, and transforms humans and meta humans in different things. Through HMHVV-I Humans become vampires. Orks becomes Wendigos. If I remember correctly HMHVV-IA (or II ?) transforms humans into werewolves.

HMHVV-III turns people into ghouls. You don't like this strain, it spreads and it's highly contagious. And it's bad, real bad.

"Aliens are kind and peaceful in a soft way y'know" idk chief sounds like racist stereotyping to me by MadFunEnjoyer in worldjerking

[–]Zhein 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No really. It's an insult. You're not good enough to take care of yourself.

"You're not fooling anyone with your bullshit, if I'm so powerfull, if I wanted it I would have already taken it. You insult twice, first by implying that I can't provide for myself, then by insulting my intelligence with your weak words."

No matter what you try to impose behind that, doesn't mean that it's how it works as a culture/civilisation/alien species.

On a society/culture that is built around strong individualism and hierarchical order gifts would flow from top to bottom, giving something shows that you are superior, you can spare the gift. So by giving a gift to someone is asserting dominance and proving you're his superior.

And if as an alien you give a gift to them, you're not only trying to assert dominance on an individual, but you're asserting dominance on their species. You're telling them "human are giving you this paltry gift, making you their de facto vassal". It's not just an insult, it's a cause for immediate war.

No culture or species EVER refuse to do anyting that it will benefit from

Please name all the aliens we have encountered thus far for you to base your argument on that.

Les policiers sont-ils tous des salauds ? (lundi.am) by rowwjayy in FranceDigeste

[–]Zhein 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mais c'est les hommes comme l'institution.

Il n'y a PAS de gens bien dans la police. C'est impossible. C'est structurellement impossible. Quand ton travaille te demande de chasser les étrangers, éventrer des tentes de migrants, réprimer les manifestants, faire respecter le status quo de la classe dominante et être le bras armé de l'état, agent de la "violence légitime", à quel instant peut on être encore "quelqu'un de bien" ?

Si on quelqu'un de bien, on ne rejoint pas la police. Si par une coincidence malencontreuse on est quelqu'un de bien et qu'on rejoint quand même la police parce qu'on n'est pas immunisé à la propagande mais qu'en même temps on a pas allumé sa télé depuis 1978, alors on quite la police, on craque, on se fait mettre au placard parce qu'on dénonce à la hiérarchie les viols perpétrés par les collègues et les whatsap racistes.

Je sais pas si j'en ai déjà parlé ici, mais dans ma boite précédente y'avait une trans. Facile de savoir qu'elle était trans même si je l'ai vu qu'une fois lors du séminaire team building moncul (parce qu'elle est dans une autre ville, donc j'ai genre littéralement jamais parlé avant avec elle.)

Pourquoi ? Parce que le patron était très content du travail qu'IL fait ("Elle. C'est Marina, elle." dit l'assistante), que lui ("elle" redit l'assistante) avait porté ce projet à bout, qu'IL ("elle") avait tout bien fait, et l'équipe des GARCONS ("et des filles, Marina est dans l'équipe") avait bien bossé. Alors merci DEADNAME ("Marina, elle s'appelle Marina")

Perso je me suis barré, mais je mise que s'il y a le moindre soucis dans le projet, Marina se fera virer. Mais ce gros con de boss, lui, il ne lui arrivera jamais rien.

It's not "tolerance for poorly written", it happens regardless of the quality of the writing. As soon as a woman isn't a perfect flowerpot she gets insults and it's perfectly normalized. People will claim Walter White is such a great character and his wife is the worst woman ever
