Eva starts throwing out wild amounts of lore and background information out of nowhere and never really stops to explain any of it. I don’t think most anyone fully grasped the show on their first watch through. In fact, iirc a lot of what was figured out was with the help of a Playstation game that came out that had large text entries of lore.

What energy drink has 300mg caffeine in 250ml?

Highest I can think of is Viso at ~160mg per 250ml

I agree it would be better if the site included brands from other countries too, but it can still be used as a starting point. I’m sure you could Google the item and figure out the equivalent where you’re from.

My guy, who do you think shot first?

I’m sorry but if you’re saying when people trying unionize or collectively bargain for better conditions start getting shot at they should just give up or lay down and take it you’re a fool.

Fwiw I did mean to say, “I’m not saying we need a civil war.” Though, honestly, I’m not saying we don’t either. It just wasn’t really the point I was trying to make in that moment.

I think I more or less agree with you though. Violence is not necessarily my first choice, but it’s naive to think the opposition will listen without it. Or at the very least the threat of it.

The reality is that our power structures heavily favor the owning class, and they’re not going to hand over that power laying down. Collective action and such is of course the first step, but as you mentioned force will be used to dispurse labor movements.

Yall realize many of the rights we have as laborers now we’re won with force… Right?

Like, yes collective bargaining, labor solidarity, etc. is super important (which is also a form of force) but there were literal armed conflicts between laborers and the police on behalf of companies.

I’m not saying we need a civil war, but let’s not pretend we won our rights today without bloodshed.

Edit: Left out a key word, whoops.

Oh I certainly did not coin that term, so steal away lol

But yeah I definitely get your point. I suppose my only real contention is that I don’t personally feel it’s as ubiquitous of an opinion as it sounds like you do.

That said, in the case of someone like Jk Rowling I will absolutely bring up the topic should she come up. I have quite a few trans friends, and she has and continues to actively take steps to attack and harm the trans community. Liking the art she has created is one thing, but supporting someone who seeks to invalidate the existence of people, particularly those I care about, and take away essential care is another. I probably won’t start a fight about it, unless you’re a real shit head, but I take no qualms with standing up about it either.

Quick edit to note that’s not directed at you, to be clear. More just continuing to make the distinction I was before.

Someone else more less touched on this but I think you’re missing the point.

I don’t know a single person who thinks you can’t like someone’s art because you dislike the artist. Using your example, I have plenty of friends who grew up with Harry Potter and still absolutely love the series in many ways. However they also think JK Rowling is a piece of shit.

The problem lies in giving a platform to people who, at the very least outspokenly, espouse harmful views, and/or engage in harmful activities. So generally speaking, they tend to take some amount of issue (how much varies person to person) with people continuing to support works from them without some demonstration of change or betterment. In turn, most of us stop consuming their content wholesale, as we don’t want to support their actions or views by contributing to their platform and would prefer others do the same.

People like what you’re talking about exist, sure. I also think that demographic is nearly exclusively terminally online people, who tend to be quite a bit louder than your average person. Which in turn can skew how commonly held of an opinion something can seem to be.

In fact, you can also miss out on some amazing story and interaction by succeeding rolls. Just like real D&D.

One of the things that’s so impressive about this game is how well it handles and reacts to the variety of different decisions, succeeses, and failures you can make. Failing a roll in one spot likely just puts you on a different path, with a slightly different story.

In fact, particularly in narrative focused games, failure is just as important, if not moreso than success. How interesting is a story, really, if the characters never stumble or face hardship? It’s not nearly as compelling if they succeed at every turn.

Android user here from scrolling too long on “Everything.” Sometimes I wonder how much of that is due to price difference, so to speak. So far as I’m aware android has a bigger range in phone prices. If you get a cheaper phone, odds are reasonable it won’t last as long.

This is anecdotal of course, but I tend to go for the more expensive models, and thus far the only issues I’ve had have been directly my fault. I’m currently entering year 3 of my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and it still works flawlessly. Granted the battery life is starting to wither, but that’s more or less to be expected with li-ion batteries. Obviously that’s not 5 years yet, but I don’t really doubt my phone could make it that far at this point.

No please keep going
