  • The worst part of April Fools isn't April Fools itself, but rather, stumbling across April Fools jokes a few days afterwards when you're browsing previously submitted messages and getting bamboozled by them because you're no longer in the headspace to avoid April Fools pranks like the plague.

    I've been contemplating switching out my avatar for a while as of late, but on second thought, I think I'll keep it. The expression pretty accurately summarizes my opinion on global events right now.

    Same here, though my discord profile picture also summarizes it with the blank expression.
    Just saying, but out of all the potential apocalyptic scenarios out there, nuclear Armageddon is one of the options I'd rather not end up happening. Man-made climate change seems like a much more respectable way of going out.
    I gotta say, I'm beginning to miss that brief interval of time from a couple of weeks ago when the controversial trucker rallies in Canada were the most reported upon dilemma in the modern world. Which isn't to say that there wasn't any wide scale conflicts on the globe before the events in Ukraine, but... still. Those seem like simpler circumstances now.
    Yeah so the Spyro Reignited Trilogy was really neat and all, but when can I be expecting remasters of the Legend of Spyro trilogy???
    i don't get uncomfortable when african americans use the n-word because i'm white and i'm envious that i can't say it, i get disturbed because the n-word is racist

    I only get disturbed if it's used incredibly frequently.
    Like in To Kill a Mockingbird.

    It's hard to phrase these sorts of things out a paranoia that it'll be received as controversial, but I guess I've just conditioned myself to physically cringe at its usage because of how offensive it is, regardless of the circumstance. And that's always been the case, I feel like that's relatively normal. So it displeases me to see some people say it so frequently, independent of race.

    The way I see it, people in a group can use slurs attributed to that group. Which isn’t to say I’d use it, which I wouldn’t, since I’m not a part of that group. But I don’t mind it as much when an African American says it rather than someone who’s not.
    Did it ever bother anyone else that at the end of the film adaption for Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone, Dumbledore is bold enough to taste one of the Every Flavoured Beans, and almost immediately concludes that it's earwax flavoured? Almost as if, for whatever reason, he'd tasted earwax before? it keeps me up at night
    This is sort of a rhetorical question because I'm basically just exasperated at this point, but what reasonable explanation does Russia have to take over Ukraine in the modern age when they're already the biggest country by land distribution and any of their civil issues could be solved through diplomatic trading and structural improvement?

    If we want to go into detail about it, it's to prove that Russia is still relevant on a global scale... America especially has downplayed Russia for a while now...
    Furthermore, there has been an agreement with the NATO to not expand further towards Russia... Ukraine joining, or even receiving protection (I might be wrong with the precise details) is technically breaking that agreement...

    Overall, it's still dumb to risk a global war about it...

    But please, don't hurt yourself because of it. Nothing is worth inflicting self harm. And there are still people that care about you... Just as you worry about your parents...

    Soooo basically the only "reason" that Russia would have for invading Ukraine is because Putin is insecure about NATO making a move on the country, which they would only have plausible cause to do if Russia did something shady, such as... invading Ukraine. Wouldn't call that a sound excuse, but it's incredibly obvious at this point that they have literally no explanation to do this except to be :red:s.
    to the patches of ice that my shovel gets caught on while shoveling snow: :red: you
    I want to live in a society where people don't equate :red: size with a man's ability to do literally anything worthwhile.
    I kind of want to be optimistic about the quality of Pokemon Legends Arceus, but I can't stop myself from being cynical because it follows the consistent trend nowadays of open world games being hyped for the sake of being open world. wow i'm a broken record at this point

    Those elements make the game a lot more interesting in my opinion. ->

    That said I still don't plan to play it myself since I still have several other JRPGs from last year that I've still been meaning to finish (Tales of Arise and Shin Megami Tensei V). I am interested in hearing from others who play it on how good it is and from what I've heard, impressions have been pretty favorable. ->

    Other than that I agree that a game being open world isn't enough on its own to make me interested in it or get hyped for it.
    Come to think of it, if eyebrows weren't a thing that were present since birth and they only started growing once you hit puberty, it might be customary to shave them.
    I feel like Chapman's ice cream overestimates the length of the average ice cream scoop when making their containers.
    halo infinite's campaign was really underwhelming and bland, honestly
    This toothpaste will leave you mouth tasting minty fresh! But it'll also make everything else taste horrible.

    That's why meals tend to be hours apart. You're not supposed to eat shortly after you brush your teeth and it takes an hour or two for that taste to leave your mouth depending on how well your rinsed out your mouth.

    I mean, for me everything tasting terrible after having brushed my teeth only applies to beverages. Food consistently has its taste unaltered and dissipates the mint flavour.
    too many of my depressive mood swings have resulted in thoughts of self harm lately
    Open world games are cool and immersive and all... that is, until you find yourself having to scour the incomprehensibly massive landscape searching for tons of ultimately useless collectibles.
    :red: i forgot to post my annual announcement that the 27th was the day of my birth, my dudes
    "Political" and "cartoon" are two words that shouldn't be found in the same sentence. It's depressing to see people attempting to force their toxic political agenda on others utilising such a visually innocent art style.
    Sigmund Froid
    Sigmund Froid
    Disagree. Toxic people will be toxic regardless of politics, and art of any form has been used for political criticism for a long time...

    The issue is seeing politics as necessarily toxic. Political debate used to be less divisive where I'm from, although it is now, which in itself is depressing...

    Doesn't help there's a very toxic relationship between the two major political parties over here in the US. Won't go into more detail than that.

    The worst part is, the whole stuff in the US didn't make it easier for the rest of the world either. The two party system of the US causes a world of extremes, and while it's not nearly as bad here as it is there, it had it's impact on how people here see the world. The global Pandemic doesn't help.
