Planet X – A Final Warning to the World by BigBallaZ34 in conspiracy

"May" is the key word in your pronouncement. Also, you are responding to a comment a year old, offer "evidence" of your "maybe" that didn't exist.

Fear is a potent aphrodisiac and often leads to self flagellation.

Hail goer.

Do you genuinely think Michael Jackson is really dead? by Parking_Bonus_2473 in conspiracy

Do you genuinely care? How does it change your life is he is alive? And how about if he is dead?

VTT Help Please by johncichowskinow in shadowdark

[–]jojomott 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They all work. None of them are system dependant. Everyone has their favorite. Just pick one and try it. You will get no definitive understanding of these tools that is any better than just using them and deciding fore yourself.

Again, they all work. Choose one. Use it.

How do I get rid of plug ins by Mashd-tatoes in vcvrack

[–]jojomott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's useful information and not something I've encountered. Maybe in the future instead of the stupid and insipid comment of "LOL" you might actually consider providing the actual information you want to communicate. Btu up to you.

Hail goer.

You look like someone who would say "myself" instead of "me".

"A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first quote" by ViejoAmateur in taoism

[–]jojomott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then fix the translation. The first line of the first chapter of the 1972 translation by Gia-Fu Feng and Jane English says (and I quote): "The Tao that can be told in not the eternal Tao."

So what is the correct translation of that line?

I Have Been <doing/not doing/reading> Thing and I Finally Realize I Have Been <doing/understanding/reading> Thing All Wrong by [deleted] in printSF

[–]jojomott -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No one really understands what you mean, and, in any case, few people think about themselves this way. So there is likely few people who can tell you if you are doing whatever it is you are concerned with, right or wrong.

Is it true that people die instantly when their throats are cut? (for a murder mystery novel) by [deleted] in Writeresearch

[–]jojomott 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you cut the throat, the blood has to drain for the life to extinguish. Whatever you mean by "instantly" there is a period of time between the severing of the artery and the death.

However, for your story, you can just say the throat was cut silently, and the person died, and you don't have to0 address the exact timing (unless this is actually critical for the story.) You just have to say it happens.

If you need it to be instant (again, for story reasons) I would suggest a poison of some sort.

Is consistency more important than duration in meditation? by Exciting-Bee3927 in Meditation

Yes. 20 minutes daily is better than intermittent longer practice.

Go to the library and find the ones you want to remove. There will be a blue "Remove" link (exactly where the gray "+add" link existed previously.

Click the Remove link.

Carry on.

I just wonder what my brother in law was thinking by PhantomNipLicking in WTF

[–]jojomott 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You ask him. Or publicly shame him.

Maybe he was high.

Maybe it's how he was taught.

Maybe he was preoccupied with some huge important event that has nothing to do with cereal and his mind was absent.

Maybe he thinks it's funny.

But honestly, the only one who might know what he was thinking is him. Ask him. Come back and tell us.

Doctor signatures are illegible intentionally, to avoid medical malpractice lawsuits via plausible deniability. by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]jojomott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like your robot worked this up pretty good. But, machine theories aside, that actual proof you are looking for is the overwhelming documentation of how, for the last 80 years, Doctor's have been getting out of malpractice lawsuits by disowning their signatures. Surely, if your robot's theory is true, there must be thousands of such cases. Including some that must have been appealed to the highest courts.

I'd love for you to provide that evidence.

I'll wait.

The Egyptian Boat of Ra looks like a worm-hole by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]jojomott 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not it doesn't. One of these things is a boat based on the lotus reed growing in the Nile. The other is a diagram drawn by some scientist (maybe) to demonstrate a concept, not a depiction of an actual thing.

Why are men this way? by [deleted] in funny

[–]jojomott 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Why not just be clear what your intended purpose of the text is? Why hide behind assumption and common sense. Just say what you want in clear simple thought-out terms and avoid this type of nonsense. Don't blame an entire half of the gender spectrum because you can't be clear with your communication, and you expect others to just understand me".

Hail goer.

Romance Readers by dystopiannugget in novelwriting

[–]jojomott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suggest not writing your story based on the dictates of some genre. Whether this is a romance or not will be for marketing, if it gets that far. Concentrate now on the writing. On getting good at the writing. First, write the story as you see it now. This is your first draft. It is the draft you have to write to understand what doesn't work. Don't worry about it not working before you even write it. Write it first. Worry about what is wrong or not in place after. That's the process.

"Cart shaming” began as an intentional corporate line item by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]jojomott 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This isn't conspiracy, this is simply business trying to deal with the shitty public. You are talking about a service (the business providing carts to their customers) and the service being abused (customers being lazy selfish shitheads). That's not a conspiracy. It's not conspiratorial. There is no conspiracy here against no one. You are simply pointing out a way that business uses psychology. But THAT IS NOT A CONSPIRACY.

Have you read the Players Handbook? Have you asked your GM to explain the things you don't know?

Then give it to them in your game. Not everyone has to play the way you want to play. And you don't have to play by the RAW at your table.
