I don’t want to spoil this rare quest you elected to take on. But you should’ve seen those obsidian structures surrounded by lava and magma. I would inspect those.
The game gives you no hints. It expects you to know, just like games don’t really instruct on how to use the joystick.

How does buying an overpriced, underflavored burger allot you the privilege of calling someone anything you want?
I’m glad the manager didn’t misgender their staffer, but fuck being polite to that wanker. “Fuck out of this store. If you think spending money lets you be rude one-sidely, then we don’t need your money.” And a ‘1st Amendment lawyer’? Fuck all the way out.

I wouldn’t call those “counterexamples” as I understand counterexamples (namely an example that counters a statement or belief). That would mean the examples would have to show that killing the villain did make the protagonist just as bad.
Like, in your Overwatch example, they didn’t become moral bad from killing the bomber. They were disbanded; the worsening situation was as a result of other bad people choosing to disband them. It’d be weird to lay it at their feet for killing a villian with political(?) connections.

- Comment on Crazy Party Anon drinks a glass of ranch 3 weeks ago:
If you were too shy to make a scene, why even stage the ranch-drinking stunt? You have to lean into weird things, not do them timidly. Stand up and ask, “Hey, where do you keep the ranch? I’m thirsty.”
Otherwise, it just looks like you’re trying hide that your drinking a glassful of someone else’s ranch. Being (intentionally) funny is hard and not for everyone. It requires you to have an accurate barometer for the social weather of your audience. If you can’t even start a conversation with a stranger, you’re not ready to pull off room-wide goofs, successfully. You’re more likely to end up as a clown than a jester.

She was absolutely looking to leave as soon as this guy schlubbed in to look over her “good body, tits, and butt”. The attempt at conversation was just the opening she needed to escape.

You think people will stop talking about GTA 6 when it’s released?
Actual playable gameplay will fuel games media for at least 7 months straight, unless the game is genuinely unplayable. Then it will only like 4 months of people talking about the end of Rockstar and what they might have to do to come back.

No, I’d prefer cops keep killing minorities.
That’s the position I’m espousing when I reject the idea that saying “thank you” instead of “ACAB” is a meaningful change toward a fix for systemic, gross police misconduct.
I find your apparent ideology around this patently laughable, if not dangerously naive. But you seem intent on holding on to it, so we’ll just end it here.
- Comment on Woman refuses to pay restaurant bill 4 weeks ago:
I can’t even grapple with the idea that the thing that will stop cops from maiming and murdering minorities is being nice to them more of the time. People are generally already deferential to them because they have guns and uniforms.
Cops have turned into this after the 80s and 90s, the very height of cop propaganda. Where being a cop or a detective was one of the coolest things to be. It is incumbent on them, for their terrible behavior, to regain positive public opinion.
I never said to spit in their faces, but they don’t deserve applause for this level of job performance. People don’t applaud doctors and nurses every time they listen to some inane, self-inflicted idiocy from a patient without going postal
- Comment on Woman refuses to pay restaurant bill 4 weeks ago:
“Maybe he does” is crazy. No.
No, I don’t think I will praise him for doing his one job sanely.
“I don’t know if you were more restrained because this was a (wealthy-seeming) white woman. Regardless, I just wanted to thank you for not escalating this like cops normally do, applying gross impositions on citizens’ rights or murdering someone.”
I would sooner accept thanking baristas for not spitting in our drinks than thank cops for the bare minimum of being a prosocial person.
He didn’t do something massive, like put himself in undue danger in the line of duty. He didn’t do something extra, like offer someone in the rain, a car ride home. Those would be something to praise him for. He sat there in authority granted to him by his uniform and did his job, as a person, instead of as a lunatic.
- Comment on Upcoming Changes to XBOX Cloud Gaming [time limits] 4 weeks ago:
We recognize that introducing limits is a meaningful change, particularly for players who regularly spend more time gaming through the cloud. We expect this upcoming change to impact 4% of Game Pass subscribers.
You tell me only 4% of their audience plays more than 15 hrs in a month?
And, if so few subscribers are playing that much, why force new plans that cost more to limit people that weren’t even stressing your network/capabilities?
- Comment on Anon becomes a landscape 4 weeks ago:
But actually she definitely didn’t laugh in my face, and make me cry, and get all her friends to make photoshops of my crying face on various pieces of landscape photos, for nearly a decade.
She said she would love to date me, right after her family finished moving to Canada.
- Comment on Anon becomes a landscape 4 weeks ago:
I don’t understand how you propose fixes like this. Like the thought-process is so alien, I don’t even know where to start fixing these people, except to head back to toddler instructions on personal space and communication.

Just stop tho. If you don’t have ideas, then don’t pretend like you do. For years!
You don’t turn 2 seasons into 5 without either making new ideas, or thinking “yeah, I gotta stop. This is nothing.” And, if the new ideas are bad, then start thinking, “yeah, I gotta stop. This is nothing.”

“Was” doesn’t imply they think we’ve hit rock-bottom.
They were naive to think “AI” would improve things, but now they are appropriately pessimistic going forward.

That’s just called “being rich.” Work duties do include disenfranchizing the poor, with quarterly reviews by peers in the Illuminati.
So not quite as chill as you might hope from “having no logical fears or needs”.
