Ellie, Isekai Sommelier

Eating dry ramen covered in the soup base as a medicine (this is real, I have low sodium lol)

Gotta say that this is some extremely creepy language. And the argument basically is... that if the prevent people from treating gender dysphoria (adults, in this case), that they'll just... stop having it? That's not at all how any of this works.

This shit is why I live in terror of losing my job

Trans people existing is more important than eating at chili's or watching Harry Potter on HBO. I have no problem throwing all these companies in the dustbin

Those aren't the series I had in mind. I am talking about the delicious slop. Walk outside a town and "spiked rabbit/bunny/hare" shows up.

I don't think most western audiences are fully aware of just how much Dragon Quest has shaped Japanese fantasy settings. Virtually every isekai has Dragon Quest as its foundation for plot tropes, monsters, character archetypes, etc. Direct references abound.

Any time someone says "take away their citizenship" in any capacity, there is fascism afoot.

Being willing to sacrifice civil rights for a vulnerable minority for literally anything is psychopathic btw.

I have too big of a backlog of JRPGs to play to be someone's inspiration porn or cis oriented feminism stalking horse.

This is pretty straight forward "cruel and unusual punishment", and while obviously prisons get away with horrors all the time, it's not typically official federal policy that is put on paper and readily challenged.

If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

Before energy prices get worse remember to go ahead and construct additional pylons.

...do not actually believe in either religion or philosophies which are used for those justification. It is an argument of convenience so peple can believe what they want to believe, and then go back to not living as believers in any other capacity EXCEPT LLMs.

You can swap it to "some [rarely championed] philosophies say" and the issue is the same. I am also simply not in the least bit interested in playing a game of cherry picking philosophies to justify an insincere conclusion, particularly from people who...

I do think there is a problem though when "rocks could be conscious", which is generally connected with that distinctly religious view, is being used to launder PR for a multi billion dollar company. It feels very cynical to skip past known design and function to "some religions say even...".

Anarchy Reigns, easily.

I don't think any capcom nes platformer is anything short of phenomenal tbh

The very fact Trump wasn't in prison alone lays solely at the feet of the Biden/Harris administration. Like, they lost to a guy who literally shouldn't have been able to run in the first place. That was their and their alone *choice* to let that happen regardless of electoralisms.

I saw someone actually try to argue a spreadsheet could be conscious a while back lol

*explains the actual functioning of a purely designed thing for which we explicitly know the functioning on account of being purely designed*

"That's just your opinion though."

Fuck off.

I think whatever these prices are they are super recent (and may also be regional/store based? I dunno how standardized the prices are) so post any of the deals im aware of for the shaq pizza, ladt time i ordered them like... 6ish mos ago? the order was like $15 cheaper is the big thing.

Looked at Papa John's prices for the first time in a while and holy shit lol, fuck off. Their shitty brownies are now over $10, they charge $1 per butter cup, and even the cheapest basic large deal is up like $5 in price from a few years ago.

I for one do not want to sacrifice literally a single goddamn thing for *checks notes* nazis to murder children.

Best Sharon Stone role hands down

Ethan is just a regular guy made of a mold. A regular mold guy. Nothing wrong with being mold. A lot wrong with being a cop.

If RE7 and 8 did anything significantly better than the rest it's that you don't play as a cop/cops.

I'm laying awake in bed stuck on the thought that a centaur would have no way to wipe, they definitely can't reach back there with their human part arms

That fucker has ruined so many random things retroactively

"The warning comes as Kennedy is leaning heavily into his agenda to improve American diets, a popular initiative the administration has recently played up..."

If their shitty liver destroying food plans are actually popular it is a gross indictment of the media.

Looking at GA and SC, two of the most overrepresented states, I can state with authority that it's too high for sure. Most of these families are very "big fish in a small pond". Yeah, they live in a shithole city in south GA, but they're the people with the nice houses in said shithole city.
