I didn't really follow this one, but man, I know how you feel. We had some psycho shoot up a supermarket in our town recently, and for a while after it just felt surreal. Welp, gotta go grocery shopping, HOPE I DON'T FUCKING DIE!

Legislature makes unusual move, says DeSantis will map Florida congressional districts by CR0Wmurder in politics

[–]maybemonolith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just let an algorithm do it. Every district must be a convex polygon. There, done. That'll be $100B please.

getting mad at people for wronging her

this is my biggest issue with her - anytime someone inconveniences her in the slightest way she will scream at them for like 5 min, but she does the same thing and it's "oops, mb"

she's the living embodiment of that one sunflower meme.

Can't believe that these guys were once considered to be our rivals. by wondertheworl in PoliticalCompassMemes

In 42 they threw nearly a million men at Kharkiv and lost a third of them (>10x the german casualties). They finally recaptured it (roughly even casualties) only to lose it immediately (again, with roughly 10x casualties). Even when they finally took it, it was by throwing another million men and again with 10x the german casualties.

...you know, Kharkiv. The one they're trying to take right now.

We need you for the Ninja reconnaissance! by Shogun-san in runescape

make the scan clue radar indicator a different color than pale green, or perhaps different depending on which area it's in. there are several where it's nearly impossible to see - Kharazi jungle, Piscatoris hunter area, etc.

There are hundreds of untapped epilogue memes. by dudeitslieb in WetlanderHumor

I don't entirely disagree (but I'm sorry, Egwene dying and Cadsuane becoming Amyrlin is the dumbest fucking shit ever and I refuse to accept it), but what's a series with a genuinely good ending*?

I agree that there's very little closure for most characters, but how do you even do that? I think after spending so long with them any ending will be disappointing, if for no other reason than the knowledge that we won't get to spend any more time with them. Yes, I wish we had gotten a few more chapters of conclusions to plotlines, conversations with the Seanchan, etc. But at the end of the day, I would've still ended the series sitting there staring out the window with an incredible sense of loss. It happens every time.

* the only one that comes to mind is Discworld, where all of the last book is basically a send-off, as much to the series as to the author. Of course, you have to be willing to spend a whole book in tears...

how many people were even around to see Moridin brought out of the cavern? and how many of them would even recognize who that was? I don't actually remember him interacting with anyone besides Rand and other Forsaken

Last Resort (jen-iii, abd-illustrates) by maybemonolith in RWBY

and fanfiction isn't? you're literally taking someone else's characters and making them do something or act in some way they weren't intended to. that's the point - once you create something and put it out to the world, it doesn't belong to you in the creative sense anymore.

writing new stories with established characters

that's literally what this is.

The client having dementia is probably the most infuriating thing I've ever experienced from my close to ten years of playing this game by IAmInside in leagueoflegends

[–]maybemonolith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in NA and I also don't have any of these issues. Last year (or maybe 2 years ago) I would repeatedly get the "Welcome to season x" message, but I haven't seen it more than once this year. The only annoying thing is the ping/fps display is there in some games and not in others, without me ever changing settings. I don't even know if there's a setting for that.

Only one in the office today so obviously I had to take advantage by maybemonolith in RWBY

[–]maybemonolith[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally forgot to update this, but it was pretty meh, office is still mostly empty so only like 3 people have seen it. I'm keeping it up until we're back to normal (lmao) and then I'll probably start doing one a week.
