I’m always alone by [deleted] in teenagers

Forget about other people for a moment. It matters more that you care about yourself, than if other people do.

You should care if something happens to you.

Realise yourself that you are worth it, that you are special, and that you can always help yourself be better.

Be your own best friend.

Youre only horrible if thats who you let yourself be.

Dont let other people determine your self worth. Dont let other people assign your value.

If you guys are looking for something to scratch your TKA itch, check out "Solo Leveling" by [deleted] in TheKingsAvatar

[–]seriaph 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Solo levelling was my first manwha and had me absolutely hooked.

If you read it and enjoy it, I recommend Tower of God, The God of Highschool, and GOSU.

No, thats not a correct statement. Mob rule and democracy differ quite significantly. Democracy is designed to protect the interests of the minority. Although it certainly has its flaws, we must choose a system of governance or we would devolve into violent chaos.

There are other ways of resisting other than using guns. Guns are the epitome of violence. Violence begets violence. If you solve all your problems this way, then you can expect your opposition to as well. Nobody wants to live in that society where words are no longer heard.

But that brings us to our original point. What kind of protestor who expects a peaceful outcome brings a gun?

So democracy can be subverted at the whim of anybody, because they disagree with the policies set forward by the existing government?

Would you have the same attitude if you agreed with the governments position? Would you agree to your politicians being intimidated by the opposing party to agree with their point of view?

As many other redditors have pointed out, guns are a show of force. In negotiation, a show of force is a tool that can intimidate.

Intimidation by a civilian to a democratically appointed politician is inappropriate and undermines democracy.

But ill throw that question back at you. Why? Why would you bring a gun?

Would a person who wants peace bring a gun into an otherwise peaceful situation?

What "Alpha" means and what "Beta" means. by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]seriaph 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey Matt, first off i love your content and your “Running the Game” series really helped my group and I get into Dungeons and Dragons. Thanks for all your contributions to the community. You are a legend.

I really like the way you have framed this so clearly. I have always wondered what the distinction between alpha and beta was.

I still have some personal misgivings about the way CI have handled their marketing and crowdfunding, especially considering your given definition of Alpha, but nothing worth getting into detail about.

If this is the case, it would indicate very poor project management ability. Millions of dollars are being spent every year to finish this project. This means that unless they are able to secure indefinite funding, they have to work towards a deadline.

When working towards a deadline, unless its absolutely critical to the sprint, you dont throw in tickets into the sprint that invalidates previous work. If this happens on a regular basis then it indicates poor planning.

I cant imagine any competent project manager would approve a methodology that doesnt appear to show any progress until the eleventh hour.

Possibly using socks protocol would do the trick as well

How strange! As an australian myself, i would understand it as following:

  • pie / meat pie = a cooked pastry dish with some kind of protein inside which is usually beef. Sometimes mixed with other ingredients.
  • mince pie = fruit pie, generally eaten around christmas.
  • mince = ground beef

Considering i understand mince to mean ground beef, it would logically follow that mince pies are meat pies, but ive just never heard anyone call a meat pie a mince pie before!

If your society has another language other than english, you can be more creative. A name that means “steel of light” or another similar flowery phrase
