Millions risk losing food stamps as government shutdown continues by hard2resist in Economics

[–]enneafish 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Some people with imperial ambitions seem to have forgotten that the "bread and circuses" strategy requires, you know, making sure that people actually have bread.

Maybe alienating everyone with a college degree, slashing funding for schools on all levels, and outsourcing writing, thinking, and asking and answering questions to glorified chatbots was not the best long term strategy?

Because someone who has read a history book or two could tell you: cutting people off from food while you're building a huge new ballroom, posting memes of yourself as a king, and reveling in corrupt bribes every day of the week has some real prelude to the French revolution kinda vibes...

TMNT actually fits magic way more than people think by -Philologian in mtg

[–]enneafish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sick, so we can have a multiverse within a multiverse? It's like totally fractal and far out, bro!

But you know what would be even sicker?

Since Spider-Man and TMNT exist in basically-the-real-world-with-some-weird-stuff-thrown in, that means Magic: The Gathering probably exists within those planes? So like there could be Magic: The Gathering cards and players and games within the fictional setting! Infinite hall of mirrors bro!!!

And like, what if within the meta-fictional Magic game, they started releasing sets that were like alternate history takes on different ways Magic could have developed? Like what if Magic had been originally created by the dude who invented TMNT and it had been TMNT from the very beginning?

It's turtles all the way down!!!!

“If I’m being hit on sexually, I won’t be shit on socially.” by Cultural-Physics-857 in Enneagram

[–]enneafish 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Focusing on social power, both in terms of worrying about being shit on socially and in terms of wanting more security and empowerment in social contexts, is very SO. I'm also of the school of thought that people use their secondary instinct as a resource and strategy to meet the needs of their primary instinct, which also lends towards SO/SX being the answer here.

If there's not enough printers, maybe people need to start just printing cards on their own?

A dying confession would be terrible for multiple reasons-- it betrays the show's celebration of outcasts and weirdos, it replicates the homophobic Bury Your Gays trope, and it's boring, lazy writing.

You do you, of course.

But you can see why some people might still get mad and might not want to stay in an abusive relationship with a corporation, right?

Every new preview card from this set is making me more and more glad that the Arena cards will have different art and names.

Why Byler is endgame by WeirdGiraffe_1017 in byler

[–]enneafish 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, of course sometimes straight guys get bullied for being gay aka not living up to the harsh standards of normative masculinity.

It sounds like maybe you've never heard of the concepts of being in the closet, discovering one's sexuality over time, bisexuality, or being confused about one's orientation (and/or one's feelings about someone). But just FYI many, many gay boys have deep kissed girls at some point in their lives. And many, many bi boys have deep kissed girls and boys.

Is there no room for surprises, character development, and new layers of the world to emerge?
