That's excessive for typical people. The flowers and chocolate are going to look like you're expressing romantic interest, which is inappropriate to do to a child.

I sometimes wonder about people who played final fantasy 7 but are conservative. Like, did you just blank out everything except tifa's tits and cool swords? They're ecoterrorists fighting against a corporation. Be like Barret.

People are making these decisions. Shitty people. And engineers are implementing it.

Can't we stop them? Why can't we stop them? I'm so tired of people going out of their way to make things worse. I just want to backhand someone

Also if they try to pull a "These aren't employees they are independent contractors that just happen to work in my store and wear my uniform and..." we hang them as an example to the rest.

I had an argument about this with a friend once. I was saying if we just abolish the police, private enterprise will probably step in to fill the gap. I don't want that. I don't want amazon offering policing services (as part of Prime. vomit).

I think the police need to be split up into smaller institutions, and have a lot less murder powers.

Someone needs to address the "Someone broke into my house and stole my TV" problem, without a profit motive and with accountability.

There should be something to address "My neighbor is screaming at his wife and I think he's hitting her" that doesn't involve some low empathy assholes with guns rolling up to mock the woman.

I don't know how to fix this.

The guys in those hypothetical lynch mobs are the cops today.

At least in this scenario you could get your buds and shoot back at the klan fuckers, maybe.

I still remember being really mad I missed the "added effect" materia in the original FF7. You can never ever go back to that cave, so if you don't turn around to pick it up you never get it. Pain.

Conservatives aren't known for being smart or rational. It's a worldview of emotions and immediacy.

A friend of mine had a similar thought. He was sitting down to do some work on an open source game, and then was like "Wait. What am I doing?" and he made his own game from scratch. ( This one: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1271280/Rift_Wizard/ - It's good, but kind of too hard for my brain )

It helped that he a had a lot of xp in game development. I imagine some of the boring, difficult, stuff doesn't have as many people readily available. There's a lot of "Why does the game crash if I push the up arrow key when I'm in my inventory, sometimes?" stuff you have to worry about when you're doing the whole thing.

Recommend not letting old people use YouTube unattended. Same for children.

Really, no one should be using most of YouTube. It's a big ol' cognito-hazard.

Conservatism isn't rational. It is fear and hate. It's a child slamming their head into the floor sobbing because their teddy bear is wearing the wrong shirt.

They should not be allowed to make decisions of any import.

I mean, YouTube has let all sorts of horrible things fester on their platform. Anti-vax stuff, far right extremism, climate denial stuff. They've got blood on their hands and I wouldn't be sad if their leadership was hanged.

 

I tried it a bit with my reaper in pve and it seemed okay, but I wasn't doing anything challenging that really put it to the test. I haven't tried the others classes yet.

 

I'm looking for players for a weekly game of Fate. I'm thinking something like a mix of Shadowrun and World of Darkness, where the players are vigilantes looking to make the world better. It would start (and maybe stay) at the street level, rather than global or cosmic.

I've been playing and running games for 20+ years.

LGBT friendly. New players okay. Unreliable players less so.

Message me if you're interested. Include a blurb about yourself, your experience with games, with fate specifically, and a joke of your choosing.

 

Like I saw one that was titled "I wonder why rule" and had a picture about overpaid CEOs or something.

Why "rule"? What's the origin of this format?
