Nobody will hear a statement from the other side of the story because the other side is a dead 13 year old.

It’s different for everyone, I’m overweight and don’t have tiddies at all, but I’ve seen men who looked like a fairly healthy weight who had noticeable tiddies.

I loved Elden Ring, I don’t play many games these days but it really hooked me. But also it really needs to get over itself and add difficulty options.

I do think the difficulty is part of the fun but I almost didn’t finish it because it was so all over the place, toward the end it just got grindy, bosses just turned into long roll fests until you got your one chance per minute to knock off 2% of its health bar. They feel more like endurance matches that test your patience more than skill.

Sometimes I’m dying a lot and having fun because the challenge is good, but sometimes it’s just tedious and I want to move on to the next area. I would love to be able to drop the difficulty for a bit just for those spots, hell make it an in game item called cry baby bottle for losers and wimps for all I care.

The nickname thing really puts this into perspective. Imagine saying ‘I’m Jim, my parents call me Jim, everyone knows me as Jim and it’s what I prefer to be called’ and then some absolute psycho asks what’s on your birth certificate and exclusively calls you James. The level of disrespect and lack of basic human kindness in these people is astonishing.

There’s one guy in my little group of friends who is an unapologetic hugger, even though the rest of us don’t really hug he’ll always hug everyone goodbye. I’d say it’s possible some guys don’t enjoy it, but I actually really appreciate it about him, it’s nice getting a hug and sometimes I really need one.

For anyone who really doesn’t like it they can always offer their hand first, but on behalf of all the guys who need a little affection from their buds sometimes I wanna say thanks for being there for the friends who need it. Even if they never say so I’m sure some of them appreciate it.

Wow those Billionaires mustn’t be committing many tax crimes at all. /s

You can be negative if you want but this is still a step in the right direction.

At least now they actually have to weigh up the costs, before it was free.

I’m sure that plays a part, but I’m going off this link which seems more based on individual actions than overall donation amounts.

Wowee, yet another LLM. I bet this one’s going to be super different somehow.

One thing I really don’t understand about America is how it’s one of the most charitable countries on earth - but when it comes to proven government run charity there is usually strong pushback.

Like I understand how it happens I just wish people would evaluate their politicians more and think about whether or not their values actually align.

I appreciate your maths but you’d be pretty surprised how much stuff can fit in that area. I probably also live in a very ideal spot in my city, it’s certainly not the case for everywhere. I’m pretty much right between a suburb full of housing and our ‘nightlife’ area. And the inner city where I work is just next to that. I am not exaggerating that I can get to work on my (e) bike in 15 minutes. And there’s heaps of things in that area. It’s a big place, though, so sometimes I do need to get an uber but I often go weeks and months without needing to.

I’ll try it again, looks like it’s come some way since I last checked.

I used to live in a very car dependent city and now I’m somewhere that I can easily walk or bike anywhere I need and get there within 15 minutes and I am very grateful for that. Our biking and public transport infrastructure keeps getting improvements, too, which is awesome.

If they want people to use their cars less they need to start making that an actual option. This is not on the individuals but the government.

People are pretty predictable ultimately, we take the path of least resistance most of the time. If it’s quicker or cheaper or easier to do something one way then we’ll do it that way.

I hate adobe and have been actively trying to switch away from them for a while. I work in game development, though, and for some reason no one has made it as easy to directly modify the alpha channel of a texture. It’s something I have to do a lot and is probably the one thing keeping me from using krita or affinity photo.

I just feel incredibly angry all of a sudden.

That is awesome, nice work.

That’s not what I was trying to say. I was specifically referring to you talking about how animals treat each other.

I don’t want anyone to suffer which is why I have mixed feelings about this.

edit: actually go fuck yourself, I don’t care, you’ve continuously put words in my mouth and obviously don’t care about having a reasonable conversation.

I literally don’t even know what you’re trying to say, I haven’t cast any judgements or told anyone to do anything. Get off your soapbox.

I don’t care how they treat each other, we should hold ourselves to a higher standard. And I’m not labelling anyone here, I just said I had mixed feelings about it.
