once you notice half of all memes are just a picture of a black person with unrelated text over them you really cannot unsee it

[tonysopranoproskater69420]

this is actually horrific right? we can all agree about that?

I'd never thought I needed to be paranoid about the fact that photos I share on social media might be turned into memes in a discord run by JuicyBigNut but that's what existing in a public space as a black person is like! not to mention the fact that they don't even know who the man in the picture, yet we know who first spread it and no one has beaten that guy to death yet

barnyard the original party animals is the uncontested lord of bad implications in childrens movies

[nyctosaurid]

ok so like “the secret life of x” movies tend to not strongly explore the actual reasons why, exactly, their life has to be secret… they don’t really focus on it within the narrative. They do usually have some small justification for why animals or video games or toys or whatever have never just revealed themselves:

There’s no stated reason. They just pretend to not be alive. We usually can suspend our suspension of disbelief here because when it’s something like a video game or an emoji because any odd occurrences is perceived as a glitch or something similar but the actual reason why they aren’t too hung up on this kinda shitty lot in life isn’t said

They get something out of their current relationship with humans (like in toy story)

They have some specific reason to hide that they’re alive, like they die if they’re seen (like in the christmas toy)

They perceive themselves as sentient, talking creatures, but humans can’t understand them. They just see a squeaking mouse or an inanimate hot dog or whatever. 

and the last one is what most animal movies do, and it’s like, not devoid of weird implications but you can see where it mostly works.

but barnyard is the outlier here: it goes with tier one: the animals can talk and walk on two legs but just pretend that they can’t for unstated reasons. 

in the history of the barnyard world non human animals, at some point, decided to just pretend to be unable to speak. a “cow” or a “coyote” or a “hen” do not exist as we know it in the barnyard universe. the baa of the sheep is false; the ewe doesn’t understand it either. they only made up that noise to hide the fact that they speak human languages. a dog barking and running on all fours is a facade. animals naturally walk on their hind legs and made up whole postures just to appear non sentient.

and for what? what do they gain from this? they have no rights and no voice by their own choice. at one point a donkey claims the farmer is a good person because he’s vegan and a pig mentions bacon - this is not a fantasy universe devoid of death and misery and meat. do animals, in hushed whispers, remind their children not to sob in their real voice as they’re taken away? do the dogs not beg for kindness when they’re tied up and hit? do cows and chickens not cry for their life in the slaughterhouses? does a rat not scream a human scream when the trap misses their neck and only breaks their spine? Why? what is the point? They loose so much and have everything to gain.

anyways does everyone remember this really awful cat. it only appears in one scene but i can just sense the porn of it that would pop up if i googled it’s name

[inkthecryptid]

This post is like being tied to a chair as a a joker-style villain monologues and presses a gun closer and closer to my head as he reaches the climax of his rehearsed piece on the flaws of society and when he finally pulls the trigger it’s a little flag that says “bang!”

[princessdraconic]

Mm. That's right, I have a spell for you. Hold this watch to your ear. Listen closely. It's about two ticks and a half a second. The clockwork is old or cheap or both. Higher quality mechanisms would be closer to four or five. It'll need frequent calibration to be useful as a timepiece. Close your eyes now. Irregardless of its flaws, I've no plans to rid myself of it. It's like you.

[lady-of-vitreous-sight]

in general i do really like when the 'boundaries for rules and penalties for breaking the rules' are (correctly) understood as part of 'how the game is played' in competitive games. ppl always get really snippy about this kind of thing but i lay firmly on the side of "the spirit of the rules does not exist, the rules exist as they are enforced". and so anyway i just noticed you forgot your pact trigger earlier and you just tapped out for a spell, so im putting that on the stack now.

[alyrch99]

Actually! This is now the correct enforcement of the rule at competitive REL. Like any other missed trigger, the player is given the opportunity to put it on the stack at the point that they realize it's been missed, though they of course get warned (as does their opponent) for failure to maintain game state. So the correct way to catch your opponent out for forgetting a pact trigger *is* to get them to tap out some mana, then call over a judge and point out their pact trigger, at which point they cannot pay and lose.

[alyrch99]

You can actually see pro tour, magic world cup, and mythic invitational winner Andrea Mengucci do *exactly* this to (also) pro tour, magic world cup, and mythic invitational winner Simon Nielsen (mentioned just to point out even pros mess up, not glaze them for no reason) in this video (timestamped, it happens over the next 2 minutes). The exact situation mentioned in the OP. So Miss vitreous-sight has it entirely correct *and* that's actually the exact advice given by Mengu.

[senseisdiviningbottom]

Erm actually ☝️🤓 because paying for pact is a triggered ability, this would be handled as a missed trigger, not as a Game Rules Violation (Even if it weren't a trigger, this player would receive a warning for a Game Rules Violation, Failure to Maintain the Game State is reserved for that player's opponent). As such, the player with the pact trigger would not receive a warning. The opponent also would not receive a penalty for the pact trap, because Failure to Maintain the Game State is never given for a missed trigger. From the annotated IPG:

There is never a time when a player should be issued an infraction, be it Unsporting Conduct — Cheating, Game Play Error — Failure to Maintain Game State, etc., for either accidentally or intentionally not calling attention to an opponent’s missed trigger.

[alyrch99]

Thank you for the correction! The failure to maintain game state part was the bit I was most unclear on because I'm pretty sure that's the intended situation with The Initiative (I've had that happen to me at a pauper tournament) so I thought that it would apply for this as well, since both are triggers. Is that not the correct judge call for The Initiative either?

got called a Man by a te/rf and the worse part was that they implied I play call of duty and im like. you can call me a man, whatever, I know you're a moron, but you will not deny me my stalwart commitment to global communism. in no world would I be a "call of duty fan" even if I were a man.

tending to my pet anarchists. going into their solarpunk themed enclosure and spreading packaged medicine around in bushes for them to naturally gather. refilling their stock of grain discreetly so they think it all comes from their garden sized wheat field. I spot one and she hisses at me and calls me an authoritarian tankie but i make cooing noises and offer zines as treats and she lets me pet her

everyone rightfully complains about how the r word is back in vogue now but I think the people talking about how using ChatGPT makes you a small brained lazy degenerate are getting off way too easy

[necromancelena]

I have to say for something that sounds kind of saccharine and too 'wholesome' to be taken serious, "my purpose in life is to make my friends happy" ranks as i think just slightly less sustainable or healthy a philosophy than "my purpose in life is to get the best grades possible" or like tying your self worth to like your income or creative output or whatever. Constructing a worldview where your purpose for existing gets called into question the moment you misspeak or make a social blunder or a joke doesn't land or whatever. it's especially toxic for transfems considering i don't think i know a single trans woman that hasn't been abandoned and tossed aside by a social group and left to fend for herself at least once in her life

[necromancelena]

You have to find a reason to not kill yourself that still stands if you are completely alone in this world and i don't think a lot of people grasp that because the concept of someone 'being alone in this world' is something you're not really allowed to say and mean literally
