I heard (not sure how true it is) that the manga creator is politically far-right. That’s actually hilarious to me, and it might be the reason the message seems odd. The whole anime is like an essay on how shitty fascism is for the fascists, but then it takes a left turn while lying on its side, if you will.
- Comment on Anon buys a can of beans 1 week ago:
You’re getting a lot of shit, but I get you. When the demons were introduced, I had a moment of “ayo what if Frieren is the baddie the whole time and demons are misunderstood”. The only thing is it quickly solidifies that the demons are just evil, even though I don’t necessarily like that one-dimensional narrative of good and evil.
It probably doesn’t help that I finished Attack on Titan just before so I already had elusive, internalized fascism on my mind. I think that’s sort of the point with Frieren though. She’s supposed to be capital G Good, which is inexplicably brutal toward evil, and that’s where the dimensionality comes in.

Oh my god I’m so dumb. I was going to say aren’t touch typers the only ones in danger? And had to think several times before I realized.
… As if this remaps the keys…
And I’m
- a touch typer
- with a mechanical keyboard
- and a custom layout
- that I remapped in firmware and software for my laptop keys

😂
all I’m sayin’ is it’s kinda silly to call the Steam Controller a new product like the other two

- Comment on Fun yet unknown gameplay MECHANICS? (POLL) 3 months ago:
Niche mechanics are my jam. My favorites usually revolve around unique economies or structures that create their own depth of play.
I love genre benders and sandboxy stuff. I’d like to see something like Chaos Seed (SNES) built on or re-imagined, dwarf fortress is great for tinker-ability, and I always liked how Nethack has some deeply designed interactions even if they can seem superficial or esoteric. FFXII with the gambit and realtime-ish combat systems was always a standout too.

Neat project! Kind of makes me think Habbo + Warioware or something. This is on another level entirely, but multiplayer and player-made minigames/content would make an interesting roblox-like.

None of them do. They just edit things down to the very few moments that make them look like they’re winning a debate, and even those moments are superficial, construed, or they don’t know that they’re actually losing. If it’s live or in person, conflicting views and evidence are avoided or just ignored. They’re all snakes as if snakes were made of slime.

I did assume a thing or two I guess lol. I got a refurb when it was cheaper than a fix. Wonder if that counts as a “new” phone… Theseus would probably like to have a word.
