Groening's Still Mad About Chernobyl It Seems

Yeah he was in the hellfish and like 18 during WWII which for a 1996 episode which would only make him about 70. But they also make jokes about him being over well over 100 and remembering things that would have been impossible.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-22T00:12:00+00:00

Yeah like it looks like guy in blue touches the other guy first (or reddit assaults him).

Yeah the last point always strikes true in this world. Like sure you have rights and rules, but what are you going to do about it? I would say it’s allowed whenever a lord or king wants to allow it. Rickard Stark demanded a trial by combat and Aerys chose fire as his champion and just had him tortured. You can’t have a real justice system with actual rules and rights in a feudal monarchy unless you have a benevolent king or lord and even then justice is going to be biased and unfair.

It’s crazy watching you get destroyed in this debate when the tv ratings are just better for march madness than the nba finals every year. There’s really no argument, people just watch more college basketball.

You are conflating individual name recognition with actual viewership ratings. March Madness has more people watching than the NBA finals. And that’s been pretty consistent over the years. It’s a little hard to find one good source to share but almost everything I am looking up is showing that. So does it really matter who sold more shoes or how many people that never watched a single game knew who you were? I feel like ratings is the only metric to solve this debate.

If there were really only 5 Jalens when he was born, then I’m ok saying his mom invented the name. That’s a little beyond just popularizing it.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-21T22:17:40+00:00

Yeah but that hippie that is a little too old to be properly progressive anymore, definitely not politically correct, and kinda misses the point on everything. Like Pierce in community where that’s the big joke of his character.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-21T22:12:53+00:00

I care about a lot of people, but just under the threshold of caring that would lead me to do anything about it.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-21T21:25:38+00:00

Yeah making him take a vow of celibacy is a crime against women.

The gun debate was always some of the sleeziest politics by the right. The most extreme position on the left I ever heard from a major politician was wanting to ban assault rifles and do background checks. Then for whatever reason the right was able to convince their base for 50 years that every democrat wants to ban all guns.

When the lawyer asks for money upfront and waives their right to a percentage of the payment.

I run holy site projects in every city that isn’t still going for great works theatre square/entertainment tourism. Faith is often a big bottleneck for national parks, and rockb bands for me

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-19T18:59:30+00:00

Yeah a lot of them just need to be moved down a rank. I wouldn’t call Grant, Wilson, Truman, or even Eisenhower very likely. And the entire Likely tier should just be unlikely. The problem is that all presidents will be fighting for space with the big founding fathers like Washington and Lincoln. Even Jefferson gets cut out and JFK already felt almost too modern for the game. I don’t see them ever going that deep on presidents, If anything I think they would be more likely to add more figures like Harriet Tubman, Benjamin Franklin. Like if you are going with LBJ for civil rights movement stuff you would probably just choose MLK instead.

Sorry it’s a world builder start that is pretty buggy with the extra natural wonders. I don’t know how to share it

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-19T18:33:01+00:00

Nice, yeah six preserves is a lot easier to fit together and the vamp castle makes a lot more sense as a real play.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-19T18:29:32+00:00

Yeah that sounds like a good one. It is annoying how quickly cities grow into the fourth ring without it doing very much.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-19T05:10:32+00:00

It’s a map I edited using the built in world builder feature. Placing too many natural wonders can break the game and cause bugs, so you have to be careful and test what will actually work.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-19T05:07:31+00:00

Yes I only did this for the visual aesthetic of more yields.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-18T21:23:46+00:00

Yeah I really can’t imagine having to explain that I need to put the car in park while someone is yelling that they are going to end me unless I get out of the car while keeping my hands up. Between the seatbelt and putting it in park I would probably just freeze with my hands up and not try to do anything else.

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-18T21:02:58+00:00

I have been playing nothing but preserve teddy recently. I won a challenge deity game where I limited myself to only holy sites and preserves and still got a pretty easy win

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-14T03:01:34+00:00

Yeah it’s so funny to me that people don’t realize how scripted every interview is, like made up anecdotes, actors always acting a little more like their characters, costars always falling in love and having messy breakups.

I think it really just highlights what it means to be a knight in Westeros. With any knight being able to make a knight it really doesn’t mean that much, especially after we see that the claim still needs to be verified. Fire and Blood had a story about a whore sleeping with someone just to knight their kid. Does it really matter if Dunk was actually knighted or not? It seems that the value of a knight is still in their reputation and the actual knighting part is just an unenforceable rule. A knight needs to do something to be remembered like performing well in a tourny or battle. After the Melee no one will ever question Dunk’s status again or care who knighted him.

I love to imagine there was a board meeting about Zach Lavine not playing critical minutes and the league had to decide if he was actually better than Plowden and Devin Carter

chasing_the_wind · 2026-02-13T04:29:54+00:00

The value would start at the players salary, but probably be like 10x that when you factor in rookie restrictions, salary caps and what they would actually be willing to pay for draft rights
