@AngryMinis@rickpriestley This feels like pretty bad taste and really parasocial. Imagine your colleague from decades ago passes away, and someone online you or the deceased IRL had no real personal connection to is holding you responsible for your ex employers press release about it.
@Squirrelmob75@HughElMariscal The Big E, isn’t a divine creator, he’s a man who systematically tries to seize power from the gods to overthrow them, only to become trapped as one at the zenith of his accumulated power.
@APOLLODYSSEY@CocktailHermit This was the whole interaction. The classic “you don’t understand XYZ art” > “bootlicker/wont make out with you” > “personal insults pipeline”.
@trevgoes4th@_Harriet90 Class in the UK is a psudeo caste system based around memetic values. While it correlates roughly with wealth, that’s not what defines your class. Lots of working class millionaires and upper class in heaps of debt.
@Hybridathlete@Brady_H@MarathonHB If you want to blast gear and run in events with no doping rules or personal project feels free, but i think disingenuous to call anything non-pr event recreational, when this will have been an A goal event for some people.
@Hybridathlete@Brady_H@MarathonHB By winning his age group in a sanctioned event he’s quite clearly competing. He’s potentially bumped someone off the podium while using PEDs so the fairness of the event is materially impacted.
@nestapendragon So often you refuse a draw, play it out, and the game ends up going nothing like the person yapping for the draw said it would. People became way overconfident in thinking they can predict how entire turn cycles will play out, to the detriment of a lot of games.
@nestapendragon People stopped trying to win games and started trying to negotiate draws ridiculously early on, on the assumption they can exactly predict the next 4-8 turns of the game, so no one needs to bother play.
@ChibiButo@nestapendragon “My cardboard skeletons and knights are the memetic offspring of warrior kings and poet soldiers” is certainly an exciting new genre of mental gymnastics.
