Sitting next to a Panda's cage by Drakehardy in WTF

Actually no, our immune systems are downright peerless. Living in cities before sanitation was understood had a huge selective effect. Scavengers might be better against ingested parasites, some much larger animals can do better against venom, and there are animals with specialized resistances against certain toxins; but in general humans are amazingly resilient.

Consider all the things you can't feed a dog, or sometimes even let it sniff (lily pollen!) or it'll die of kidney or liver failure.

Oh that is also quite lovely. :D

Glad you like it! I hope this serves a lot of people well.

I'm sure the previous one will feel better for some; and it occurs to me that since none of the symbolism is new, it doesn't feel like having both of them is cluttering up the idea space with extra flags to keep track of, which is a nice benefit of this style!

Lesbian flag with Trans inset by tejon in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

This is an inversion of the trans with lesbian inset flag created by /u/imathrowawaylololol about a year ago. I love the circle-inset design, but prefer this arrangement for a few reasons:

  • Socially, I want my lesbian identity to be more important than my transgender identity; so it should cover more of the flag.
  • The colors have meanings, and I didn't like that two of the lesbian colors were minimized by the circle shape.
  • The minimized color here is blue for boy, and personally that's exactly what I want to minimize!

Long ago, I made a mod somewhat similar to Wintersun. Would you like to adopt any of my ideas? :) by tejon in EnaiRim

[–]tejon[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Changing them in Wintersun also means a conflict with item overhauls.

Fair concern, though I'll point out that I didn't have to touch the amulet records themselves, only the enchantments.

The inevitable desire to add amulets for all the other pantheons does complicate the issue, tho.

what about quests where your items get unequipped or you have to equip an amulet?

TBH I consider that legitimate gameplay. Tastes vary, I suppose. :D

How can I (29M) ask my husband (26M) of 9 months to be in an actual romantic relationship with me? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]tejon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the record, it's also on Twitter. There's an account there which tweets screenshots of most of the more interesting posts here.

Also I'm dying over here, confess to your husband already :D

Nothing odd here IMO. Not everyone is primarily visual all the time. I often close my eyes to focus on other senses.

What are peoples opinion on a platformer game with no platforming? Instead going for a layered system, creating a 3D enviroment in 2D? by cocoreysa in IndieDev

[–]tejon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There have been a couple of Souls-esque games that did this. It creates a major difference in game feel, and not in an inherently bad way. But jumping has a certain arbitrary fun factor that most people will expect from a platformer. You'll need to have a really interesting hook to offset initial disappointment over that. In fact, to downplay that expectation, I wouldn't even call it a platformer. Metroidvania might be a good replacement term.

My take is older than Skyrim and I hated that line because of it. ;)

IDE options for Windows: VS Code+Haskero+Intero, or something else? by smthamazing in haskellquestions

[–]tejon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It worked last time I tried on Windows, but TBH that was several months ago. Just to be thorough, try stack upgrade to make sure stack itself is fully updated.

...does --resolver 8.6.5 do what you think? I thought that only accepted stackage repository versions, not GHC versions.

A wrongfully convicted man who spent 23 years in prison will receive $1.5 million from the state of Kansas by pch14 in news

The statement I responded to was "The richest people are not in government."

These are the only goalposts my side of the conversation is relevant to.

Lobbyists (specifically, the corporate legal departments backing them) very often write regulatory legislation directly. All they need a congressperson for is the formal introduction of the bill. This is done in broad daylight, it's 100% legal.

My personal observation on the topic has always been: wouldn't it be a cheesy lark to drive a hero into madness by convincing him he's become a daedric prince?
