The Hivemind Complexity.

I say that because it is a collective process that exist in a large amount of online communities, Lemmy and the Fediverse being no different. People online are way too used to having thoughts of theirs being parroted. Then comes the constructs of all of these karma systems for people to vote said thoughts of and that creates a level of its own discourse that, people will say or do things for some validity based on that.

And anyone else who comes along that thinks or says different than the seeming majority, are scrutinized, bullied and branded to be moderated.

Everyone is just too used to being around others who agree with them.

That happens to me when I decide to change jobs.

"Don't need this shitty knowledge anymore"

For me it is just manipulating your natural beauty. Hollywood conditions nearly all women that they must look attractive or risk losing roles that exist only based on attractiveness. So you see actresses like Kate Beckingsale or Lindsay Lohan doing this for some roles.

It's different than needing to get rid of loose skin from losing a lot of weight.

It's pretty sad that some of the best, least acclaimed anyways, storytelling was buried into those shows. While everyone else at the time were trying to find them in big-budgeted movie versions and some of the books that got released that ended up being wiped into the 'Legends' category by Disney.

It's a vicious cycle between rabid fans, the creators of the IPs, the outsiders (i.e corporate entities) that have long infected all of them.

I'm tired of reboots, I'm tired of made-up characters that seemingly are shat out from some kid's imagination but it's from an actual adult (like difference in the creative department) who only exist just to one-up the already established character. I'm tired of power-level debates that just melts your brain to numbness when trying to even engage in because they all vary wildly. I'm tired of meaningless arguments as to what origin, what canon or whatever is the real timeline of some character because they always change depending on who the hell is writing them.

It's all gotten entirely tiresome and convoluted.

That's sounding like Spider-Man: Brand New Day. It technically is just yet another reboot, but a "soft reboot". Reboot is a reboot nonetheless.

Relationship Experiences.

I know for certain that I prefer monogamy because I like the idea of having a sense of belonging to someone exclusively and for us to have a closed-off relationship in which we can enjoy eachother.

I'm only okay with polyamory but its very limited and I don't think a lot of boundaries would be respected. Someone is going to feel like they want more than they can actually have and it'll disrupt the entire function of that relationship. I'm quite wary on the idea of being in polyamory relationships for this very reason.

Tim's strategy seems to be "Whatever Valve drops, we take because we feel Valve is missing out on something BIG! It'll make US look great!"

And while the sad truth of the matter could very well be a maybe, depending on how the pure-epic userbase are over there towards it, it still pales to everything Steam has been built to be.

Oh are they finally running out of that oil money they're known for?

If so, good, stop throwing your damn weight around and contaminate whatever you touch.

When I want to quit your game, I mean it.

I do not want to be prompted several times as attempts to keep me in the game when I just want to leave.

By the way, you may never know if spanking your kids ends up turning them either into boiling teapots ready to blow or someone who may later be into it a little too much to be a porn star. Never know.
