"christian characters in movies are poorly written because the writers are atheist" "atheist characters in movies are poorly written because the writers are christian" stop fighting. all human experience is poorly written in movies because the writers are californian
“bits to use in everyday conversations”
I always just assumed the reaction to YouTubers commenting on other people's videos didn't really have much to do with the encounter being unusual? Like if I run into my gamer friends in the halls of a gaming con, it's not like that's a strange place to find them, but it is still fun to randomly encounter them and we get to go "omg hiiiii"
That doesn't apply to the "I wasn't expecting you to actually respond" part though I think that's just parsocial
youtubers are not your friends, if it does just mean "omg hi" that's not good either
I wasn't trying to say YouTubers are literally their fans' friends that was just the first analogy to come to mind for "something that isn't unexpected or weird but still makes you happy to see when you weren't seeking them out". I understand what you mean with the second part though
FWIW even though I do think it's cool to "run into" YouTubers I like unplanned, I don't leave comments like "wow omg it's you!!" I figure a thousand people must have already said the same thing. I just figure if we're going to granually analyze this phenomenon we should account for every possibility
it's a bad analogy though specifically because when you run into a friend at an unexpected place that's a mutual sensation, both people feel pleasantly surprised to see the other one. the youtuber doesn't know who you are, you are saying "omg hi" to a stranger
To be honest if you're sufficiently famous and your appearance is well known, people do exactly that. Which I have to assume is not fun for the famous person.

English usage question--no judgment, simply curiosity:
the past tense of "shine," as in "the star ____ especially brightly last night," is:
shined
shone
it depends (how?)
Feel free to say where you're from in the tags, and to reblog!
Neither feels correct to me. I think I would generally rephrase the sentence to avoid doing so. Contextually, "the star was shining especially bright last night".
Pallette. You agree. Reblog
You so so agree

Kinda sucks that Mario might not make it out of the first round, I think the tournament would be more interesting for it.
Poochy still gets my vote though

As someone who has watched @janmisali's "how many Super Mario games are there" video several times and is eagerly awaiting the sequel (don't worry, I filled out the new survey already), I noticed something interesting in the beginning of GMTK's newest video. During the intro, he says he's played "... every single mainline entry in the Super Mario Brothers series". Naturally, my first reaction was to figure out what exact list of games that is. During this scene (mostly as a gag), he's set up a stack of games on the side. From bottom to top, they are:
Super Mario 3D World New Super Mario Bros U Super Mario Galaxy 2 New Super Mario Bros Wii Super Mario Sunshine Super Mario Galaxy New Super Mario Bros New Super Mario Bros 2 Super Mario 3D Land Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS Super Mario 3D All-Stars Super Mario Maker 2 Super Mario Odyssey Super Mario Maker Super Mario Bros Super Mario 64 Super Mario Bros 2 (aka "USA") Super Mario Bros 3 Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins 2 Unidentifiable SNES/Super Famicom cartriges Super Mario Land
This is mostly similar to the "popular" 18-game list in the jan Misali video, with a couple differences. GMTK does include all 3 Maker games, which is completely fine since it's consistent.
While making this list I learned that the European SNES used the same design as the Super Famicom. I think this makes it likely that one of the unidentified carts is The Lost Levels, which would make the list otherwise match Misali's. I think the best candidate for the other cart is Yoshi's Island. Both of those appear in the video footage, but I don't know how to confirm either guess.
If someone has Mark Brown's contact and wants to waste his time asking for his justification on the enumeration and classification of the mainline series of games within the Mario franchise, let me know.
He also includes the following games in the video as footage, although seeing as the video also includes a lot of non-Mario games this probably means nothing for GMTK's opinion on what games are part of the mainline series:
Super Mario Bros Wonder Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island Super Mario Bros Deluxe Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels New Super Luigi U New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Super Mario Run
Having watched the video now (imagine watching a video before spending 30 minutes writing commentary on it), the way he discusses The Lost Levels and Yoshi's Island, I think I can be confident my guess was correct.
He also describes The Lost Levels and Luigi U as "expansion packs" which I think is a fun interpretation. These were distinct classifications in the Misali video after all.
He describes Wonder as a mainline game, but there's no question that would have been the 19th game on the Misali list had it existed at the time.
Maker 2 is consistently described from the perspective of its "story mode" as if it were a mainline game, which to be fair it does have enough levels to count as a short game. He also mentions Run in a one-off manner which leaves it unclear what his stance on the game's mainline status is.

i forgot that the first interaction between judy & nick in zootopia is literally just her racially profiling him
that's the reason she follows him into the elephant icecream parlor, and then she calls him "articulate" look im sorry i didn't notice i was 16 when this came out
judy had no reason to float the idea of predators being biologically predisposed to randomly going insane in a public address, the movie frames it like she was backed into a corner but she really could have simply not started a race war
iirc isn't the fact that judy is, despite her own best efforts, profoundly racist in a deeply-ingrained way a pretty significant part of the movie's whole thing? it's been a while since I watched it but I definitely remember judy's "blame the predators lol" thing being framed as a pretty significant Judy Fucked Up Inexcusably moment
Upon rewatching the film, I don't think this works. She didn't inexcusably fuck up and the film often attempts to absolve her of blame through the process. She doesn't actually have to confront racist beliefs, they are simply factually refuted. Honestly, her inciting a race war comes across as kinda jarring with how careful the film had been to avoid presenting her as more than briefly misguided.
This is to me the very strange thing about Zootopia and theme. It's clearly trying to be about racism, and the moral is clearly supposed to be "racism bad". But if you actually try to think about the text and the metaphor then its framing is either very confused or very problematic or maybe both.
Number Tournament: Day Six
[link to all polls]
round two continues, and the past day of polls has included some of the closest races yet! star, eight, and Belphegor's prime all won by very slim margins!
anyway, on to the rest of round two!
As a NaN supporter I feel bad because it keep getting put against really good competitors, like I feel bad that I can't vote for them.
Number Tournament: NOT A NUMBER vs ALEPH-NULL
NaN (Not a Number)
seed: 26 (20 nominations)
class: ERROR
description: ERROR
aleph-null (countable infinity)
seed: 39 (19 nominations)
class: infinite cardinal
description: "infinity" in the sense of "the number of natural numbers"
which is the best number?
Not a Number
aleph-null
I understand that it says "Not a Number" but that's just a name. Under the floating-point standard, it absolutely is a number! You can do math with it and stuff. It's also a very cool example of how the floating-point system conceptualizes mathematical outliers.
Vote NaN!
Number Tournament: TWELVE vs INFINITY (CONCEPT)
12 (twelve / a dozen)
seed: 15 (35 nominations)
class: highly composite number
definition: the base of the popular dozenal numbering system
infinity (concept)
seed: 50 (8 nominations)
class: concept
definition: the general idea of a number larger than any finite number, as opposed to various more specific infinite numbers
which is the best number?
twelve
infinity (concept)
