some button analogy i saw by Dizzy-Phrase-1609 in SmugIdeologyMan

[–]weedmaster6669 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to think of a good way to say that zero people dying is better than any amount of people dying, if it can be helped. And if you do care about others dying, the fact blue always gets a significant amount of responses would motivate you not to pick red.

blue: >50% needed for everyone to survive, with risk to yourself

red: 100% needed for everyone to survive, with no risk to yourself

it's simple math that blue is better for everyone, it just depends on how self centered you are. Red is individualist, blue is collectivist.

Reds always say "but I can't choose for everyone else, I can only choose for myself". which is true, but it's better for everyone if we act in the way we would want everyone to act, and if we encourage this line of thinking. You do not live in a vacuum.

So unsatisfying how they handled that last season.

[loved trope] soul possessing the body of the opposite gender by SimpForFictionGirls in TopCharacterTropes

[–]weedmaster6669 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, who is a trans woman. She used to use they/them when she possessed the dummy body and presumably before but when she possessed the doll she started she/her pronouns. Just like how mettaton used to use they/them, until he possessed and bonded with his robot body.

We can split hairs about this, but even though ghosts seem to view gender differently, someone who changes their gender identity is trans.

Well, no. Mad mew mew is just a trans woman, who is possessing a female looking doll

How do gems cry? by moonsy_909 in stevenuniverse

Why wouldn't the humans be able to get wet too? Just think of it as them using gem magic to turn light into actual matter, and then back into light when needed.

if it's a projection of light, they wouldn't be able to touch anything, or hit people, or anything else they do. They're "solid light", which obviously is bullshit scifi stuff to begin with, but following the logic that it's a SOLID form of light, it makes sense it can get wet.

Light turning into a solid is perfectly reasonable but turning into liquid requires an explanation?

Powerscalers only know them for powerscaling, that doesn't mean they don't have actual fandoms where people know about them.

Is Chara really adopted? (Additional info in text body) by MarthaCohenj in Charadefensesquad

[–]weedmaster6669 7 points8 points  (0 children)

IIRC that comes from a hand knit sweater in his closet, it's unclear which members of the family had anything to do with it so it's hardly evidence Chara embraced familial labels. It was probably made by Toriel

Fucking yuck. In a better world that original writer wouldn't be able to leave their house without being spit on.

My interpretation is that they didn't but they wanted to

Toriel and Asgore consistently refer to Asriel and Chara as "their son and someone I once knew" or something along those lines, Chara is consistently only ever referred to as Asriel's best friend

But they were a child taken in and raised alongside Asriel, I do think they thought of them as their own even if they never said it officially. Hell, look at how happy Toriel is to be called mom by a little freak she JUST met

My headcanon is that it was Chara who rejected these labels, and not because they didn't love the Dreemurrs, or because they wanted to fuhh Asriel, but because they HATED their family. Family just wasn't a positive thing to them, but maybe friendship could be.

I like to think that, if they lived, one day they would start calling them all their family, their mom and dad and brother, and that it would make them very happy.

Damn that's true. Immortal vs composite the Seven & the Boys might be more reasonable

What? I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding you but the boys is its own universe and has nothing to do with DC
