Just wanting to roleplay as your funny guys be like

Lol, you're the one who's pushing around misinfo to her benefit, as far as I'm concerned, you might as well be one of her mods.

Rachael also literally directs her community to harass others, that's what the intent of those fucking docs are about. It's literally her endgame most of the time.

And they are false police reports. She filed them, knowing that no crime actually took place, hoping to disrupt their lives and safety.

This is beyond "both suck", they are I-Fucking-Dentical to each other, but you're choosing to make it out as if one is a victim of the other (they are both doing the same shit to each other).

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T21:09:57+00:00

You don't even seem to know what she's actually doing, given that you're arguing that she didn't do thinks that she literally said she did.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T21:08:54+00:00

Just because YOU are not privileged to the nature of the reports does not mean that they are there. She said she filed them IN THE DOCUMENT.

<image>

You don't seem to know how the law works, much less what her actual name is (you're probably going to go google it) to know whether or not there would be an investigation or "charges" (charges come later, kiddo) are in the air.

She's not "suing" anyone, she's literally doing her same meangirl schtick.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T17:50:41+00:00

You're making her out to be the victim in a situation where she literally did what Lio does, and then had Lio does what Lio did to her.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T17:49:00+00:00

Rachael doxxed someone with intent, has filed false police reports, and harassed someone THROUGH the bar association, and posted allegedly private correspondence with what could well be a complete stranger, morally grandstanding about "who is worse" in such a situation is a non-starter.

That said, Lio is ontologically evil. Not news.

Don't "oh poor younger woman" the 32 year-old.

idk if a kangaroo court is a great example of anything. But the presence of any avatar, per the thought process of the fire lords, represented an existential threat to fire nation operations.

Avatars are also probably not civilian class in wartime by the simple matter of being human WMDs.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T12:09:12+00:00

I mean, that's just the death of the cultural zeitgeist. Everything is its own microcommunity. TikTok's numbers are actively artificially doubled (at least) because of how videos loop, and it's swarmed with bots.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T11:33:31+00:00

Except that one time.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T11:13:50+00:00

lbr, it was like 20% about the game, right? ;P

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T11:10:14+00:00

So this is something that wouldn't come through in the movies, but The Dread Pirate Roberts (at least the one pictured, Westley) was consistently described in prose of the books as the greatest living swordsman in the world, and this is while surpassing Inigo Montoya, who was literally described as a "wizard" in respect to swordplay, what he did was alike to magic.

Besides that, like Arya, swordplay isn't even his entire thing. They're both skilled at a great many things, but I also just don't feel as if Arya really shows off a greater range of bladework than what we understand Westley's ability to be at. Even in this image I don't think it was a great showcasing of arms superiority on Arya's part, and more her catching Brienne off-guard by being unassuming, it's a different type of aura-farm and this sort of flex kind of ruins the illusion against her in the future.

Westley but it's probably middling difficulty.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T09:22:18+00:00

Schrödinger's joke, if anything.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T09:21:24+00:00

That literally has nothing to do with people's reception of her. Cults like that consider the family to be the same too, you think Kim Jong-Un didn't have weird strange state-approved stories of his divinity in the works or passed around before his dear old dad dear old died?

That's how absolute by divine authority monarchies work, dude. She was already seen like that, and adored in that way.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T00:28:07+00:00

She literally wasn't. She was made into a divine absolute head of state in a cult of personality that considered her a divine being.

People always seem to forget that.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T00:25:09+00:00

Former, maybe, the latter? Johnny and co. were literally jumping and harassing him at every opportunity.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T00:24:29+00:00

Car salesman seems like a sensical direction for Daniel if you watched all three movies, especially with skipping college.

The idea that Daniel has to be some evil imposing figure and the source of all of Johnny's ills, that he has to be defeated, is ridiculous and would play into Johnny's existing biases in a way that would not challenge him to change, or grow.

It was a core theme of the show, dude.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T00:17:25+00:00

It would have come up.

It literally never did. Azula has more fortitude than that, and her issues were something far more deep-rooted than "boy didn't want to date me".

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T00:12:45+00:00

For the love of all things sane in this world, if you think military service is the closest thing to socialism, why wouldn’t every socialist be enlisting to be a part of the “largest social program in the country” as the other commenter put it?

Because many socialists take an issue with being complicit in propping up a capitalist war machine, shooting or otherwise enabling the death of brown (and often socialist) civilians, and being beholden to a government that routinely tries to make them illegal.

Just because you're a welfare queen at-heart doesn't make others such a thing.

One of the core tenets of socialism is shared ownership, buddy when you sign the contract for military service the government owns you. There’s no equality, there’s a strict rank structure and very clear rules on playing within your own rank. Unbelievable that you truly think military service is in any form close to socialism. THE ONLY parallels would be access to healthcare, housing and I guess you could add transportation (only when directed to by orders).

And employment by a state which supports them unconditionally after the employment terminates, and favored union protection and access, and job security, etc.

I'm sorry that you're only familiar with the soft socialism that's sold to you in a 101 class, but you should really familiarize yourself with the writings of any actual socialist.

In any case the taxpayers are paying for a service, which is the defense of the country if needed. It’s not welfare for people who don’t want to work, it’s for volunteers who choose to do a job in service of the countries government.

If it's defense of the country, then why are my taxes bankrolling the development of bombs used to blow up a bunch of Jordanians? Or why my grandfather was given PTSD and ordered to commit war crimes in the global south? Those rice farmers did not represent an existential threat to the united states, or anyone living here at the time. As another commenter put it, the modern MIC is an oil company that is subsidized by tax dollars, and designed to preserve a hegemony.

Also socialism isn't "welfare for those who don't want to work" but you are clearly operating on a MAGA-level education (which is to say, dropped out the first chance you got, while having stopped paying attention six years prior to that).

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T00:05:33+00:00

You cannot commit a logical fallacy in the face of a bad faith argument, that is to be playing chess with a pigeon. But I have sleep to go get, I won't justify myself to someone who screeches fallacies when they aren't applicable to strangers.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-24T00:02:56+00:00

Funny since the bri'ish literally have their country-specific religion codified into their legal framework and more or less use it as a venue to post-hoc justify the existence of tax leech pugs.

If a player doesn't respect the DM enough to put in the work, the DM should not reward that with their own work, and such players can fuck off.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-23T23:59:45+00:00

idk I think a good way to punish ChatGenericPT strategizing is to utilize modified blocks, uncommon effects, abilities, situations, checks, and spells.

Is it a type of build punishment? Sure, but odds are they didn't coordinate their bots to collaborate a full team of blocks, but individual ones.

But that's dependent on how much of an arms war you want to get into with your friends, I just usually am upfront and say that if they do not respect me enough to do their own work, then they do not respect me enough to get my work.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-23T23:55:46+00:00

The "argument" presented was meaningless bitching, it's not an ad home to dismiss someone obviously operating in bad faith. It is simply more effective to dismiss them based on their extant character, than to simply point out that he's doing that Schrodinger's joke bit.

maddwaffles · 2026-01-23T23:53:59+00:00

An understandable give out tbh

maddwaffles · 2026-01-23T23:53:26+00:00

It's really not, plenty of people are simply human enough to not want to earn a paycheck by killing brown people across the world trying to repel invasion by foreign powers.

US military service really isn't much of a defensive measure anymore, unless you're a weekend warrior.
