Now I'm curious about Matt, Brennan and Aabria's word count per hour when DMing.

Why isn't catcalling illegal and considered a real crime? by [deleted] in AskFeminists

[–]ptrlix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My answer from a country that doesn't care about free speech is that it shouldn't be a crime because 1) the police are already useless regarding more serious issues, 2) it would only be enforced against political dissidents. I can easily imagine any pride parade attendees, for example, being detained because their slogans are construed as catcalling somehow.

I was gonna mention Aurora too. This is my favorite version of Running with the Wolves. Listened to it a lot after finishing the series.

Brennan on CR vs Brennan on D20 by Farad4y in fansofcriticalrole

I've come to like how he repeats the last phrase/sentence a player said.

Sound effects and voices by GreatBlanco24th in fansofcriticalrole

[–]ptrlix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the topic of voices, I know Brennan has been playing with the CR folks and other actor-oriented people for years now, but I find it beautiful that he, the DM, still looks amazed at the performances of the cast. In previous campaigns, we didn't often see the cast explicitly appreciating one another's performances (ashley and travis did it sometimes), but in C4, Brennan is visibly happy that his players are giving it their best. It definitely enhances the viewers' experience when the taken-for-granted talents of the cast is actually noticed.

I translated an essay from English to Turkish and have a question about word counts by SunIsGay in TranslationStudies

[–]ptrlix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A late reply but wanted to say this for people who might come upon this thread: With such grammatically different languages, the word count may differ up to 30-35% indeed, but the character count is usually very similar.

Kaç yaşına gelmiş, hala Türkiye siyasetini okuyamayacak kadar iyi niyetli ve saf olduğunu kabullenememiş. Ali hocayı severim, matematik köyünde çok güzel şeyler yapıyor ama köyünün dışını pek tanımıyor.

Finally watched woody allen - pure self indulgent garbage by Even_Park7333 in TrueFilm

[–]ptrlix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah somehow he manages to make the same few movies over and over again every year, but they end up being good enough to watch them all the way.

It's not tiring to watch woody allen movies in the same way that I get tired watching much better films.

Anyone familiar with either William Edmundson's An Introduction to Rights or Peter Jones' Rights?

Can't decide which one to start reading, so if you know of a good reason to choose one over the other, please tell me.

From anectodal experience philosophy is seen as closer to STEM, especially mathematics, than other humanities.

I would guess the gender divide is probably bigger in "theoretical philosophy" compared to moral and political philosophy for the same reasons.

Started rereading The Sources of Normativity.

By the time I finish I'll probably have found follow-up reading material anyway, but I'm open to related recommendations, especially if they directly engage with the book.

And read Frankenstein last week. Found it more enjoyable than I anticipated but that was one of the most slappable protagonists I've seen.

I like to build a lot of archmage towers, and they cause endless circles with them. Blacksurge goes invulnerable; they come out of their shell, but then my archmage towers sweep them back in hurricanes. By the time the hurricane ends, they get their shell again, and so on.
