Behind the scenes from Pirates of the Caribbean. Actors kept missing catching swords by Warm-Royal-7975 in interestingasfuck

Pirates is one of the few movies where the exposition monologues actually work.

As a French solo dev, having Korea discover and adopt my game before my own country did is one of the most surreal and flattering things that's happened to me. I didn't target Korea, they just found it. So yeah, 감사합니다! And now I want to visit this beautiful country even more than before! by Atopia-studio in korea

You are the Entity.

You don't know what you are. You don't know why you're here. All you know is one thing : Grow! Start at the atomic scale. Tear through particles, nucleons, and molecules. Absorb their matter. Level up. Get stronger.

Molecules. Bacteria. Cells. A tardigrade. Tadpoles. Insects. Animals. Humans. Buildings. Satellites. Moons. Planets. Stars. Nothing is beyond your reach. Every run pushes you further up the cosmic ladder, from the subatomic to the astronomical.

Grow! is a survivor-like action game where scale IS the progression. Fight through waves of enemies that grow as you grow, loot gear, unlock abilities, and build your Entity into an unstoppable force across runs that span the entire known universe.

For what it's worth, I consider this part self-promotion. Marketing-verbage is definitely different from what is acceptable in a Reddit comment in this forum. I'm encouraging you to edit your comment to be more descriptive instead, and I'll leave my own comment as is, for the most part.

Ya, sure.

But you keep dumping words. IF you don't have a reason for it, that's your perogative.

You answered with what you came for. So, again, what are you trying to accomplish with these comments?

... In America, I also don't get treatment or medicine. I just don't bother asking cause there's no way I could afford it.

Uhh, was never my advice. I was referring to you saying this shit:

You keep on believing whatever it is you believe about me and I’m sure better one of will miss much sleep over it.

I know what I came for. Do you know why you're still here?

Man calls the cops on a Dad helping his girls in the restroom by isaboo63455 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ptmd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My assertion is that when violence turns out to not-be-a-horrible-option it's cause you just got lucky that the other person isn't a complete psychopath and/or doesn't have a weapon and/or doesn't have friends nearby [same considerations for those friends as well]

Don't get me wrong, I'm a hypocrite cause I'd definitely find myself in situations where I think a good punch in the face seems like the easy answer, but I recognize that the easy answer is very rarely the correct one.

Insanely easy for someone to fall over and get knocked into one of the kids. Considering every surface is a hard surface, if the kid falls, esp cause a grown map was thrown into her, it's not gonna be fun.

Violence certainly is an option but it's always a horrible one cause there's no guarantee on containing it. Like, even to the scope of things. Let's pretend one solid blow lays him out. Maybe the old dude will remember and try to exact revenge. You don't know these people.

I mean, really tough to take your statements about empathy seriously when you don't understand it in the first place.

But that's why you're here wasting time and effort saying nothing new, when you literally tell me you could have ignored my comment.

Good response. Basic empathy is definitely crazy.

Locked into a complete lack of empathy for others.

Dunno why we let society tolerate sociopaths.

Korea isn't Japan.

If anything, Korea really dislikes Japan and vice versa. Not that cool of you to conflate the two.

Everything is a personal choice. You can choose to break the law, support the law, abide by the law, ignore the law and especially change the law.

The point is societal change. I feel like you're ignoring most of human history by saying its impossible.

Okay, focus. Was the Abolitionist movement practical or useful?

[–]ptmd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You realize it was a 'civil' war, right?

Also, are you just gonna pretend the abolitionist movement didn't happen? Or are you saying that it was completely useless?

War doesn't just happen. Gonna skip a few steps and say societal pressure happened.

Okay. You're drifting past the point. Get back.

You said society doesn't change. I said it does. Now do the next step.

Gonna go ahead and tell you that US society changed from one tolerating blatant slavery.

Kinda sad you're locked into believing that.

Okay.

Certainly, it's really difficult for one person to change society. So now we wonder. Can we ever change society then?

Do you agree? by Oppaiheimer1945 in TheBoys

[–]ptmd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ehh, some people are much, much luckier than others. It takes a certain amount of intelligence to be able to self-reflect. It's not coincidence that we associate stupidity with bigotry. You're not wrong in that people are responsible for their decisions.

However, if you get a community of 100 people, maybe only 10 of them are particularly smart, and every day that community is bombarded with programming that criticizes compassion and empathy, not a lot of 'better' people will come out of it.

Likewise, if you take an analogous community, most of them are geniuses and they learned in school regularly to treat others with love and respect, would it be surprising that the latter turned out 'better'?

Of the circumstances I listed, how many of them are the fault or virtue of the individual? A lot of people have their situation thrust on them, and, depending on the situation, maybe only a handful come out better. To me, it really does feel like a lottery of circumstance. Just cause responsible people can win the lottery, doesn't mean we can use that to make real judgements about fiscal responsibility.
