RPG where it's very easy to overcome all of the bosses nonviolently through correct dialogue choices, but actually doing so locks you into the bad ending; in order to get the good ending, you need to do a bunch of obtuse side quests in order to goad them into fighting you.

[prokopetz]

#honestly this sounds fun #gimme the options #i wanna know what my choices are #how ambivalent can i be? #but also it's so much funnier that this concept makes violence the correct answer (via @cuzosu-blog)

Yeah, you could definitely play a scenario where violence is the morally correct answer for laughs, but you don't have to.

If you wanted to play it straight, one might imagine a game about fighting a fascist state where all of the bosses are The One Good Nazi types with very sympathetic, human reasons for collaborating with the regime – there's the Sad Dad who's only committing mass murder because they're holding his kid hostage, the idealist who genuinely believes they can reform the system from the inside, the moral coward who rationalises their atrocities as harm reduction because if they quit, whoever replaced them would be even worse, etc. – and all of the talky nonviolent options for dealing with them involve compromising the player character's principles.

The final boss is naturally a totally unsympathetic Hitler 2.0 type, but before you can fight him he hits you with the old Mustapha Mond monologue, and if you've let even one of his buddies off the hook, he turns the tables on the conversation-fu trope and persuades the player character to stand down.

The achievement for getting the good ending is, of course, titled "The Only Good Nazi Is A Dead Nazi".

the differences between alcohol, tobacco, and anything else in america is kind of absurd and it’s hard to wrap your head around without going kinda insane

reminder that i, as an anarchist and an agnostic, am firmly against anti-theism (the stance that religion is inherently bad and should be abolished). spirituality and religion are normal parts of humanity. they are things that we make and will continue to make. some people do really just have an innate sense/desire for Something Beyond Them and that's not just going to go away Because Marxism. if anything you are throwing away a powerful organizing force that can and has been used for leftist goals, yes, even christianity. there is no part of human society that cannot be used to harm people, there is no social system that cannot be used to exploit people, there is no social construct that cannot be used to justify that harm and exploitation.

the ways in which we think of religion as a concept have been fundamentally shaped by systems of exploitative power. that does not mean this is the only possible way to think of or engage in religion/spirituality. religion has been a major push factor for many to socialism and anarchism. im so sick and tired of y'all. it's not my revolution if i must sever a core part of how i understand myself and the world or else be named an enemy.

#and there is no way to abolish religion that doesnt involve genocide. people dont want to hear this but its true #<-#prev #there’s no way to abolish religion without cultural genocide too #there’s no way to do it without it getting insanely racist real fast #there’s a conception that My Experience of X Is Universal #and all Christianity in the whole world takes the form of white American evangelism #I’m not saying other forms of Christianity are all better or faultless #but I am saying they’re different and they’re practiced by different people #and you can’t be making blanket statements about Christianity when you’re talking about the specific Christian experience you had #‘but obviously I mean -‘ I don’t care SAY that then #everyone here is able to recognise that the words you use are an important part of shaping your thought process #until it’s about something you cant be arsed about via @teacupsandcyanide

[genderkoolaid]

#fascinating that OP equates atheism with being actively against religion#I’m atheist but that’s only for me. people can express their desire for/belief in Something Else#all they want as long as they don’t insist that I do the same#I also don’t think that religion should be abolished

anti-theism =/= atheism.

you play the new deltarune chapter and they do the mike thing again but this time its just different dess designs. do you see the vision

[punkitt-is-here]

a lot of you really want the desses to lez out with each other

even if jk rowling wasn’t a bigoted jackass i think i would not associate with harry potter just because of how over-the-top embarrassing the fandom is

[hemipenal-system]

and to be clear the idea of “separating the art from the artist” is kinda bullshit because:

1. the artist is still alive and benefitting from you engaging with the art

2. the art is deeply fucking reflective of every single (and there’s so many) way(s) the author is bigoted as fuck.

compare hp lovecraft, who also wrote a bunch of stuff that was obscenely racist. however, hp lovecraft is dead as shit and can’t do anything bad with the money. jk rowling is using your money from harry potter merch to wreck the lives of minorities

also harry potter really just is bigoted in every way possible. i don’t think i can think of a single minority that doesn’t at least have a problematic depiction alluding to them

Crested Caracara being allopreened by two Black Vultures! This is such an interesting behavior and one that's typically one-way (preening by vultures to caracara). Here you can see the caracara either attempting to reciprocate but getting rebuffed by both vultures, or telling them to stop for now.

I do think the Hank Green AI thing makes it abundantly clear that if you have ADHD or any other mental illness and/or you are prone to addiction you need to avoid AI at all costs. This shit will rope you in, and if you have a mental illness that say, starves your brain of dopamine, you're gonna be extra susceptible to that. I won't use AI for a lot of reasons but one of the big ones is knowing how it would fuck with my ADHD and bipolar. Like yes, it's bad for the environment and giving money to rich scumbags and runs on plagarism, but even more than all that, it's straight up not safe at all and you really shouldn't use it if for no other reason than to protect yourself from whatever the fuck it might do to you.

[lastoneout]

Guys AI is bad but it doesn't give you irreversible brain damage, jesus fucking christ?? Be against AI but don't tell people if they use it they'll never be able to feel joy again??? Convincing people to be against the lie machine by lying to them isn't really what we wanna be doing????

Human brains can recover from horrific and profound trauma, people can be shot in the head and live, my brother cracked his skull open and survived and is fine!! The only way AI can permanently harm you is if it convinces you to kill yourself, and it does that often enough I'd argue that alone is the only reason anyone needs to stay the fuck away from it forever. You don't need to make shit up, we have plenty of real, concrete proof that this tech is evil. Yeesh.

you’re going to start liking redneck lesbians immediately. you are going to give me lesbian (and otherwise queer) rep that isn’t rich white idiots at prep schools and shit

[hemipenal-system]

​reblogging this again because some idiot said i was making up a guy to get mad at and i promise im not. the way white queer suburbanites talk about people from Appalachia and the Deep South is fucking vile. i know im not making up a guy because i’ve interacted with about seventy of this guy

[hemipenal-system]

they dont even know hick and redneck have different connotations lmao

[scramratz]

I’ve been watching a lot of videos on Frutiger Aero and i feel like a lot of people are attributing meaning to something that never really existed?

Windows wasn’t selling you a future where technology and nature could live in harmony, they were selling you a computer that finally had a high enough resolution to display a fish

[this-is-trans-joy]

I think trans women should be allowed to win competitions without being used as proof that trans women are “dominating” women’s sports and I think trans men should be allowed to have big roles in media without being used as proof that trans men benefit from male privilege. I think trans people should be allowed to succeed in life without being used as a way to claim that cis women are inherently the most disadvantaged, when usually those trans people fought just as hard (if not harder) to get where they are than their cisgendered peers. I don’t like how trans people have to fail in order to convince two-bit feminists not to attack us for a privilege that we don’t have.
