Very informative listen so far. Thanks for sharing
- Comment on "Literally" literally does not mean "similar to in some way". 3 days ago:
The way I see it is that language inevitably evolves over time. Not all of those changes make sense to everybody, and not everybody likes them, but that they will keep occurring will stay true as long as language is what we use to communicate.
It’s all approximation anyway, so I just don’t think it matters very much as long as we understand each other. To each their own though.

Til that i don’t know enough about the Korean War. Jfc

Sure, but you can literally use “literally” figuratively and people will still know what you mean

- Comment on 'No gay, no pay': The RuneScape community is absolutely mauling Jagex's new CEO over his decision to cancel new Pride Month events 4 weeks ago:
Half agree. Even if many of them are just money-hungry, there is still a ton of non-fiscal value in making it clear that queerness is not a shameful anomaly and can instead be a point of both strength and pride. Lots of kids out there are stuck in families that want them to believe the exact opposite, when they genuinely need to know that the world has more to offer than just that.
I don’t appreciate companies trying to capitalize on this, but as a friend and sibling to many queer folk (and as well as being a bit fruity myself, even if not fully this or that), I think this visibility is currently very necessary and possibly even life saving for some severely stuck folks. Even if the motivation is obviously crook, I can get behind giving those people the inspiration they need to accept and understand themselves in spite of those who would rather see them hating themselves or worse.

It kind of is though. Any ass lickiabuse, technically anal sex because it is sex that involves the anus, but not all anal sex involves ass licking.

Yall is convenient and flowy. I am from the US (fml), but not from the south and use it regularly anyway because I just like it’s sound and how it feels to say.

Louis Zhong has a similar schedule and has been doing his thing since decades before ai was anything but scifi fodder.
I’m not saying you’re wrong on the ai part of this, but some people definitely do just make a lot of music very fast.

It is worth noting that BNW is more difficult than the original, as enemies were rebalanced in order to match the new synergies available to the player. So, if you don’t mind a challenge, then it’s a great way to dive into this title!

If you ever get the urge to replay FF6, the best version (by far) is the fan hack called Brave New World. It removes countless glitches and bugs while also enhancing the level-up, combat, and magic systems, as well as provides a far deeper and more thoughtful quasi-class system. As someone who has loved this game for 20+ years now, it is very easily the greatest version out there. Def give it a try if you want to see this game re-raised to its fullest potential!

- Comment on They're unstoppable 1 month ago:
Jsyk, the androids don’t have infinite power. This idea comes from a mistranslation and it’s actually that they always function at maximum power with deep reserves rather than having an endless supply of ki.
Agreed on the rest though. They are not comparable. My true point was that human is human. They are all human in different ways and to deny that just because some of them aren’t fully human reminds me of blockhead ideas about race and race mixing. Saiyans and androids are on another level altogether though and that’s hard to deny.
And I would 100% buy that Toriyama forgot about Tien just like he forgot about Launch lol. It was kind of a running pattern in his career to forget minor details here and there
- Comment on They're unstoppable 1 month ago:
I’d say that going Super saiyan is definitely cheating. Having the ability, not so much.
And jsyk, according to Toriyama, Pan is supposed to have around the same potential as Gohan, if not even greater, but with Goku’s instincts and tenacity. This means that, except for maybe a fully trained Broly, she has the potential to be the strongest saiyan in the series, so of all the mixed species characters you could pick, she might be the worst possible example lol. It’s more word of God than it is hard canon since Tori never got around to showing us her as an adult, but still.
I think Krillin would whoop base Goten 1v1 tho tbh. Obviously not with raw power, but K-man has decades of experience on the lad and, as far as saiyans go, he seems to be leagues behind everyone else in battle iq/interest in improving.
- Comment on They're unstoppable 1 month ago:
Maybe. I’m pretty sure Tien mopped the floor with him in DB, but that was a long time ago. I don’t think either of them have enough feats in Super to definitively say who would win, but Tien is consistantly more dedicated to training and has an even trickier arsenal of techniques, so I’d put my money that ways.
And being half human is still being human. That’s genetic diversity, which is not cheating.

Three eyes = 150% as cool and that’s all I’ve got tbh
- Comment on They're unstoppable 1 month ago:
If you count Gohan, Trunks, 17, 18, and Tien as humans, which they all are to some degree, he’s def not the strongest of his species. He is way up there though, and 7th place isn’t even close, but special K is for sure not the strongest.

- Comment on When did I get so old 2 months ago:
I am a bit older than 24 and enjoy learning the new patoi tbh. It’s super interesting to me how language evolves endlessly in all these innumerable offshoots and how niche cultures generate all these different codes and concepts and wordplay and stuff.
I like that the youth are forever both borrowing from the old and scouting new grounds of their own in these ways and in countless others as well. So the renewal and rechristening of culture is based and I-like-it-pilled akchooly 🤓
