Catpurrple

An abusive partner accusing the other of cheating is very often a projection of the fact they themselves had been cheating. Since they know they would cheat, and were/are, they either assume the other person is the same way, or simply don’t want to draw attention to their affair. It’s an awful thing.

Projection or wrong thread?

People say this every time it happens, and AAA game developers have been putting out unfinished broken crap for exorbitant prices for well over a decade, now. Don’t preorder after starfield, don’t preorder after cyberpunk, don’t preorder after fallout 76, don’t preorder after anthem, don’t preorder after…

Oh wait, there’s a new game coming out soon, I should preorder, can’t wait to play it!

And then when they do update the game, and add 20 more dollars of new dlc at the same time, if you’re someone who likes mods, well congratulations. Your installation is ruined and you can’t go back to your saved game(s) without there being some level of headache involved. At this point a high seas version of stellaris would probably be a relief, since there’s no auto updates and all dlcs. But here I am, a sucker who bought like three-quarters of the dlc over the years and can’t even play it because I’ll just be sad my last playthrough got ended prematurely with a dlc release… Fuck Paradox and all their games.

Hmm, I’m a little surprised at how consistent the responses are, but I guess I shouldn’t be. I just know that if I did that spam until death and pass it all on to family thing that others here are about, well I wouldn’t trust my family to adequately handle big money after my death; they’d fuck it up, the greedy shitty ones would try and steal the will, keep some other family members from getting any; just anything to not just do what I wanted, and I wouldn’t be there to deal with it.

But regardless, since I found out I was trans, 1% death chance is too big for me. I want to live and experience my life approximately closer to how it always should have been, even though I lost a couple decades getting there. Hell, just the million dollars, even if we say it’s somehow still taxed and the fed takes a bunch, could resolve all my debts, pay for all my trans surgeries, and I’d still have more to help my family without them just fucking it all up. But I still wouldn’t want to risk the death for that.

The existence of an estrogen laser would imply the possibility of a testosterone laser, so if someone didn’t like getting estrogen lasered, they could just go get the t laser fired at them after. A hell of a game of laser tag, that.

Some advice, just block the users posting the politics, if your Lemmy phone app or the desktop browser version support doing so. If they post stuff you don’t want to see now, they’ll post stuff you don’t want to see again in the future.

Me personally, that’s what I do. My mental health is in a tight spot and I don’t have the energy for the doomer shit any more, so I’d like to hang onto some of my essence, because I can just wait to go full doomer panic mode if Trump cucks his way into 2024 and starts banning trans people from life (which would affect me).

Also it’s worth considering, a lot of these people being “no I want the Dems to lose because some bullshit” might be fucking tankies/accelerationists sneaking in here again, not all of them but a bunch. That idea really clicked when a friend of mine pointed the possibility out.

I’m not that versed in politics because of my similar aversion to it as you seem to have, but I do know those idiots exist, are annoying and loud, and are just contrarion moron cowards who want democracy to end so they can con someone else into doing a whole revolution for them after it gets bad. Even though none of them would last through the getting bad part.

So just block people posting uncomfy memes, ignore Internet psychos, vote in November, including local elections wherever possible, and we’ll all hopefully come out of this without too much lasting trauma.

I’ll probably get whooshed like I always do in this fucking place, but. Andonuts says the f slur in Toby Fox’s earthbound halloween hack, that’s the “beef”. It was released back in 2008 by a teenaged Toby, and he regrets writing that and thinks it was very cringe today, so I’m sure the idea of there actually being a problem is exaggerated.

Yeah, the R looks like the among us thing, even got the little backpack.

Unless there’s some other meaning for it, ong is some kind of slang, it’s short for “on god”. I think it’s used in places where one might otherwise say “I swear to god” instead. Of course like that other person said it could also be a weird typo, but it seems deliberate to me.

No, it actually is The Onion. It’s a Clickhole article. Clickhole is a side website The Onion runs.

I don’t know, burning a pile of copies of mein kampf would be pretty based, I think it really depends on the book.

It’s gotta be a copypasta, the format seems very similar to that one about TES Oblivion, with the person asking for rumors at a bar and being told a guy went missing in the mountains or whatever. Been a while since I loaded up a stalker game, but the “it’s encrypted so don’t go snooping” bit I think is actual game dialog, no random person would say this.

On my way to work, there’s a house I always pass with an “autistic child” sign, a yellow square sign, next to the road. I just feel offended seeing it. Even if the individual in question could be low functioning, inattentive, actually at risk of walking into the street or something, that sign has probably been there past their childhood into adulthood, and a sign to announce your child’s autism to drivers is just… something else.

I think I read before that it’s actually made by some/all of the people who worked on terrafirmacraft, but then again maybe I’m misremembering that detail. Too lazy to look it up again.

I can’t interact with politics in a level-headed way, I just word-blocked the current incident and all the politics servers. It sucks not to know what’s going on but I can’t trust myself, I’ll just get emotional and make a fool of myself. Political memes that don’t use any of those words directly still come up, but at least it’s less.
