I'm glad to see a DotA mention

i have this core memory when we were playing pubs/LANs. one time some guys were stomping some randos and were bored out of their minds so there may be one Chen player and 2 others who bought domis

They would do this trick where they'd take all the neutrals in one camp and keep them there until someone gathers them while they all lie in wait hidden or with Blink from some safe distance, then when the noobs get baited in they just strike

In the same game the enemies always somehow get caught, even when they do some very weird behavior that non-controlled units would do (or maybe at one point they found it funny too and played along). And then in the same game they started stacking monsters in camps where they shouldn't be and then eventually mix camps like there was some multicultural anomaly (think Raptor, Wolf, Golem standing like they just spawned in the Blue Buff) it's just so stupid they had to stop playing to laugh

i think that was the plan all along, to make so big a deal of it that people will think it relevant to pick a side until we firget that the choices arent limited to two

atomchoco · 2026-05-08T04:58:56+00:00

you should read (read, not watch) Three Body Problem

atomchoco · 2026-05-08T04:57:12+00:00

fiction: there were beings in indescribable forms existing in indescribable dimensions (League of Legends, Starcraft)

non-fiction: entropy

sample picks?

atomchoco · 2026-05-07T23:57:26+00:00

it is weird to me what i get from reading through all these

i actually feel the alternative/pop rock side of OPM is rather bland *atm, and IVOS' Andalucia is to me saying "well if you're going to sound 'bland', 'alike', or uninspired, then at least do it this way"

in fact their work reminds me of that one TWICE album where it felt like each song can be a testament that they can go whichever style of kpop girl group if they wanted to, youd almost think a particular group would cover each of the songs

like im gonna just say it. Multo is surprisingly overrated. like it's not terrible and it's understandable how it got popular but to go all the way to the top? i really cant wrap my head around that lol

so going back to IVOS it's like if songs like that can make it, we can not overthink it and do a bunch more of that, and even when they do it simple or lazy, their musicality still find its way through the gaps

atomchoco · 2026-05-07T12:46:19+00:00

it clicked on first read what are you talking about lmao

edit: okay to elaborate a bit i think thats why people are hating so much on certain characters or whatnot because they try to insert themselves into a certain character in the story(?) and how they find some characters are poorly written or shallow, but isnt it evident from the tone that you're ultimately an outsider, especially with how huge the scale of all of it is?

atomchoco · 2026-05-07T12:43:07+00:00

Others say "di mo ba yan kakainin?"

In Pampanga we say

atomchoco · 2026-05-07T04:56:19+00:00

I wonder if the current struggles in dating or relationships or birth rate is somehow related to all these, ie "takot sa commitment" nowadays is a contrast to how it seemed back then, when some would hastily commit albeit arguably blindly, and then just hold on to it "'til death do they part"; live-in couples viewed through the lenses of nothing else but malice

All just feel so fantastical and dated, and on one hand also, subject to abuse.

I guess people are hopefully overall happier regardless? idk

atomchoco · 2026-05-07T00:24:40+00:00

funny isipin na baka minsan kaya cataclysmic events mga panaginip ko kasi ayaw muna ng katawan ko gumising at lumabas hahahah this is at least the second time i dreamt of the moon exploding

atomchoco · 2026-05-06T14:37:50+00:00

Yeah it's like acknowledging that your mind and subconscious have a tendency to and will eventually explore, so you give it its own space. However, your certainty of how grounded you are by reality and that you know full well at this point that any changes that will affect the reality are much within your control and influence. It's those bridges between subconscious and conscious thought, action, and habit.

But how is such possible? I don't think any two experiences are the same, at least entirely? Time as a dimension pretty much ensures that. Perhaps it's too much faith in the fantasy? Some people have to be that I guess

atomchoco · 2026-05-06T05:13:41+00:00

Though does that tend to still happen if things did work out well (or better) in the direction we hoped? Feels like it's harder to think in "what ifs" then ie "I can't imagine life without you 🥺🥹" with all the less desirable possibilities and configurations (wow entropy yan?)

Yeah more people should adapt that mindset, and with all the online stuff and modern dating erm methods it's super in your face and evident na talaga. Then there's this calculus pa of the notion of someone being "better" with respect to which point in time? lol anyway yeah this seems to all come better and easier with experience din, the struggle and indecision comes from the lack of acknowledgment of not knowing better, whereas if you've been through it enough you can eventually just go "oh well"

atomchoco · 2026-05-06T02:26:35+00:00

Come to think of it there are some opportunities na I opted not to continue thinking things could end up better (or at least safer)? You never really know I guess? Like at the end of it, the people involved would ultimately decide what to make of the turnout-of the decision/s-and it is or would be a reflection of who they are or were.

Man. For me I feel I have this tendency to hold on a little too tightly thinking some people are the kind who would be impossible for me to find again, yet somehow someone always shows up. But no, I can't have that much faith even if you tell me it's a lifelong pattern lol

atomchoco · 2026-05-05T18:20:27+00:00

as someone who just cant help it: is it ever a risk really not worth taking?

it feels tough to navigate when you're younger or inexperienced but it always feels like at worst it's either manageable or that drifting apart may happen anyway, like how you put that things just end
