noooooooo don't defang that highly reactive and incredibly violent character they tear up the furniture into such interesting designs

[t00thpasteface]

just feels like wasted potential when it seems like the default way of handling very aggressive characters is like

when the far more interesting way is like

[t00thpasteface]

@yupekosi exactly. like. there nothing wrong with the character. ergo it is imperative that we let the bodies hit the floor

Hab' mir für ein Larp an diesem Wochenende einen "Heraldischen Hauswappenerfassungsbogen" entworfen, der übersetzt einfach nur ein total bescheuertes Formular zur Berechnung einer erfundenen Wappensteuer ist, mit der ich dann bei den Spielern aus Ritterbund und Adeligenlager hausieren gehen werde.

"Wie viele Farben hat ihr Wappen? Mehr als zwei? Sorry, das ist mit einer Sondersteuer belegt. Ach, und euer Wappentier ist ein Fabelwesen? Da müssen wir natürlich einen Aufpreis berechnen"

Aus irgend'nem Grund lieben Larper es nämlich, wenn man sie sehr offensichtlich über den Tisch zieht. Zumindest spielen sie meistens überschwänglich und mit voller Begeisterung mit, auf so überzogene Art dass es zu einer Monty Python Szene wird. Wenn wir alle so enthusiastisch wären sobald es um echten Papierkram geht wären Behördengänge nur halb so anstrengend.

Vielleicht sollten Behördenmitarbeiter für ein bisschen spice und amtliche Extravaganz wieder eingekleidet werden wie mittelalterliche Herolde. Hätte keinen praktischen Nutzen but imagine the fits

I would buy this and cover it in weird plush and sleep on it every night.

I didn't know they did upholstery with 1990s bowling alley carpets.

Fuck it, I’m just gonna come out and say it: the Scary Movie series doesn’t hold up that well, so I actually dread seeing another sequel.

[quasi-normalcy]

For me, it's not so much it doesn't hold up as it is that it was always kinda terrible.

[halondrus]

oh me? I lost my penis when I ignored the "Don't touch the machinery" sign. you know how it is

[halondrus]

you all hate me and my penis. I mean penisnt

I made the mistake of looking at this while taking an order over the headset at work and started laughing really hard and had to gather myself for a second and my coworkers kept trying to look at my phone to see what I was laughing at

Ein gutes Rezept gegen Desinformation? Das Wahrheits-Sandwich!

Mit dem Wahrheits-Sandwich lassen sich Faktenchecks effektiv gestalten. Wie es funktioniert, sowie Dos and Don'ts

Wer eine Falschmeldung an den Anfang stellt, um sie zu widerlegen, stärkt sie dabei ungewollt. Denn einmal aufgenommene Fehlinformation bleibt wirksam, auch nach der Korrektur.

Was also tun? Das Wahrheits-Sandwich bietet einen Ausweg: 1. Die Wahrheit zuerst 

2. Die Falschinformation klar kennzeichnen 

3. Zurück zur Wahrheit

“Why don’t you use ai” idk man beyond the obvious environmental and “this machine causes psychosis and encourages people to kill themselves” thing I think asking the equivalent of a solid D student who is also a pathological liar if they can answer my question/do the work for me seems pretty fucking stupid

[caspercryptid]

I feel like not enough people realize that people under enormous strain act really really fucking Weird

[caspercryptid]

If someone is doing things that don't make Sense, try to understand that it is entirely possible that their brain is probably under an enormous weight and fracturing under the pressure. People who have been stabbed will sometimes talk a circle around the fact that they've been stabbed because stress and shock prevent you from recognizing the distress you are in and what you need to do to seek help for it. PTSD will do this also. You will find yourself repeatedly jamming a bag of frozen fruit into the same spot in the freezer where it doesn't fit and keeps falling, over and over and over, focused on nothing but that bag. You will decide that a beanbag chair is 10000% necessary to your life. You will lose your entire shit because you stubbed your toe on a table and that means the whole setup of your furniture is wrong. These are largely harmless examples. People under strain will also hurt themselves and others. Cornered animals bite. And it doesn't heal the bite to go "Hey, are you okay?" But it might get you to an animal that stops biting, so you can start to heal. And before you had an animal that bit, you probably had an animal that kept doing shit you didn't understand as stress signals
