You know that's a really good question.
I don't know if a dragon is ever mentioned anywhere else in the Bible other than Revelations. But at the time Revelations was written, Rome would have been in full pre-fall swing, so maybe it's some sort of like crossover information.

If you had thought of that in 2016 you would now have enough money to be able to afford not having a conscience.

Because some people are more attractive when viewed from left to right or right to left.

I mean if movie critics weren't critical of movies then they would be out of a job.
What I need though is like a movie critic critic, as someone who will look at all the people whose job it is to be critical of movies and filter out the ones who are doing it because it's their job to be critical and the ones who are actually critical of the movies.

No sugar in diet soda my dude.

I drink diet soda. That way I don't have to worry about the calories.

Why? Is there something to be concerned about?

Counterpoint, I drink over 2 l of soda a day almost every single day, I have not had a cavity in the last 7 years, and my enamel is amazing.
I said all of that to say there is a genetic factor to consider, and if you are having enamel issues because of sodas then you would have likely also had them because of tomatoes and other citrusy zesty and acidic foods.
You can't just blame the soda, although I will admit that I'm sure my teeth health would be better if I did not drink so much soda.

Some people, specifically people with ADHD, are actually more sensitive to criticism than neurotypical people.
It makes dealing with criticism incredibly difficult for them and it can take them years if not decades to acquire the social and psychological coping skills needed to handle normal criticism rationally.

It's just like their previous theft of the term "bleeding heart". A person with the bleeding heart was someone who just cared so fucking much, and so they mocked bleeding heart liberals for caring so much that their hearts just bleeding away, wah wah way.
And used that term to justify the hardness of their own hearts and to somehow imply that it's manly to not have feelings.

Good for them. I remember the last one being pirated so much that they were in danger of bankruptcy so I hope everyone that pirated the first one will do the right thing and buy the second one with cash or gift cards or some other meaningful method of transfer of equity to the developers.

I know I could do it, but I also know that that burger is going to sit in my stomach like a 10 lb fucking weight for the next 5 days.
No fucking way would I eat that

I think you missed my point. I am in favor of steam and valve by far, my quibble is with the idea that anyone can sell 100,000 copies of a $15 game.
For every Stardew Valley there are thousands of other games no one has ever heard of and that almost no one bought.
By all means though, make great games. I'll be buying them on steam.

I agree with you but at the same time I feel like I should point out that this is the China fallacy, where there's a billion people in China and if you could just tap into even 0.3% of their market you would make bank.
While it's technically true, the fallacy behind it overshadows the difficulty of acquiring that percentage of the market. The grand majority of games released never become cash positive, and over 50% of games on steam alone never make more than $4,000.

This is not an issue with distribution, it's an issue with marketing and market fit, and accompanied by the base fact of that if you're the kind of person who is good at making games, it would be a rarity for you to also be the kind of person that's good at marketing the games you made.
Those are two entirely different wheelhouses that function best with two entirely different personality types, and that's not covering all of the different disciplines that you need to make a game or run a game making company in the first place.

Making money isn't evil.
- Comment on Anon freezes time 5 months ago:
I mean, I could see doing stuff like stealing an awful lot of money from large multinational corporations.
Stockpiling gold, jewelry, and valuables from predatory pawn shops and stuff like that.
I wouldn't have a lot of personal grief over the theft of property but I would have to draw the line where it comes to interfering with people.
I wouldn't use time stopping powers to rape anyone or to kill my enemies or anything like that.
Might take a few politicians and like royally fuck with them until they are so unsettled that they can't function in society anymore though.
- Comment on Anon freezes time 5 months ago:
Okay but assuming the other laws of the universe remain in play, if light has been slowed down 186 times, then you won't be walking 3 miles an hour you will be walking 3,000 miles an hour, and anything you do to people will be unbelievably violent.
Like if you walk into the shower room where girls are showering and play with their breasts, after time unfreezes they're probably all going to die very quickly or at the very least suffer horrendous damage.
If you slap the kid that picked on you in 6th grade, his head may fly off or his spine may snap at his neck but one way or the other he's most likely going to die.
And even after you revert time to its normal flow, everywhere you have gone is going to suffer multiple shock waves as the air your body has displaced and the vacuums you have left behind in your trail collapse back together.
Doors that you've opened will fly off hinges. Windows you have closed will shatter.
But thank God you chose only 1/1000th speed. If you had chosen 1/100,000th, you might have destroyed the entire planet.

Reminder that everybody whose ancestors came over on the Mayflower came over because they were basically kicked out of England for being too prudish.

- Comment on Anon wants to be a vampire 5 months ago:
Okay but among those people who choose to remain human, how many of us would be okay with donating blood every two weeks in exchange for food and rent?
Think about it. If the vampires have all the power, why would they kill their food source when the longer they let their food source live the more food they get out of it?
Let us tra-la-la and have happy-go-lucky existences, which will probably make our blood taste better to them, and they can spend their eternities competing for resources or whatever makes a vampire happy after the first 500 years.

If Trump had lost to Hillary Clinton then people would make fun of him for not even being able to beat Hillary Clinton when there was a multi hundreds of millions of dollars hate campaign launched against her that was so effective that people still hate Hillary today.
