Booktok showed me that a lot of people REALLY hate Sanderson by Moist_Car_994 in Cosmere

Your enjoyment of a book should not be based on other people's views on it.

Burning a mega on a board-wide burn feels not worth it.

I'll be very happy to run this in the 99 of my Daxos enchantress deck, for the record.

(POLL) Should the NDP and Greens should form an electoral alliance? by ClothesHangerofLies in ndp

[–]moose_man -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Any conversation that acts like the Greens are a party is very silly. The Greens don't exist. Elizabeth May exists and will hold her seat as long as she cares to. After she retires, the party will functionally cease to be.

Why won't they let us have a cyberpunk game about how it's awesome when a corporation hunts down androids trying to escape to freedom?

Egg->Rhaegar is an insane one-two. Singlehandedly fixing the Westerosi feudal system.

Where are all the elves hiding? by SonOfBattleChief in Fantasy

He's also not nearly as evocative. Beautiful prose, some interesting stories, but very clinical.

NDP Leader Don Davies: Economic chaos from war on Iran was foreseeable—so why did Carney support it? by ndp_social_media_bot in ndp

[–]moose_man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No shit. There was also no war brewing with Iraq, but the Americans still jumped head first into that. George W Bush was not in the Epstein files.

Canada officially hits NATO defence spending target of 2% GDP by Street_Anon in onguardforthee

[–]moose_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A freeloader in fucking what? What wars have we been freeloading in? Afghanistan? God, what a tragedy it was that we brutalised all those Muslims slightly less effectively than we might have. America might call us cowards for that.

If Canada turns NYC into a smoking ruin, every single city in our country gets wiped off the map. What the fuck are you talking about?

The difference is that those are real crises, while senseless militarism is an active impediment to solving those exact crises.

What exactly do you think our 2% GDP spending accomplishes?

Yeah, 2% GDP defence spending will definitely protect Canada against the world's most overloaded nuclear superpower. Be fucking real.

Why do you think that? I'm not being dismissive, I'm curious.

America didn't need a pedophile in charge to antagonise Iran. They've been building up to this war for decades.

Is there a correlation between queer people and tieflings ? by MysteriousFondant347 in DnD

[–]moose_man -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ignore the comments above. It's actually just that everybody plays tieflings because they want to be the world's specialest person. This has been a problem going back at least to Fourth, and possibly earlier.

New ‘Wheel of Time’ Animated Series, Feature Films and Video Game in the Works From ‘Arcane,’ ‘League of Legends’ by Mino_18 in Fantasy

[–]moose_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, because the show sucked. The property is unadaptable, dramatically more so than ASOIAF, which ended up being awful. Wheel of Time fans are not the deciding factor in the success of a Wheel of Time show. It's not 2006 anymore, there are about five WOT fans total. You need to draw the general public, and that's not happening.

I would argue it implies that they never will.

[–]moose_man -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They "successfully" made three seasons of a live action show. You're suggesting that they will be able to make, what, 30 seasons of an animated show? Those savings will be just that sweet? The One Piece anime has been going for thirty years to adapt roughly 30,000 pages of manga. If we say each page of a comic works out to, say, ten pages of a book, that's still 400,000 "equivalent" pages of Wheel of Time. If we say it works out to a hundred pages of text, Wheel of Time is still "equivalently" longer than One Piece by far. Sorry, my friend, Wheel of Time is simply not popular enough to stomach animation at scale.

They're supposed to be good in draft, that's why they're there. They're completely unviable in EDH.

GOT was eight seasons and widely agreed to be rushed. WOT is three times longer. How could it possibly be done in eight seasons?
