I've been meaning to write a longer piece but it isn't coming together, until then here's the gist: Don't engage with bad faith. It is the crucial weakness of democracy and the freedom of speech it's built on. Engaging with bad faith, even to dunk on it, is conceding ground. -

Going through my immense #videogames backlog, I found Mages of Mystralia by @BorealysGames to be the single-player cousin of Magicka I longed for where magic can be combined by the player to form unique playstyles and solve optional puzzles.

@nico says I'm half-way through my backlog of your podcast, and the introduction of Passenger Rosie improves the quality of your podcast by a lot, you feel more lively and she brings her own perpective which is refreshing. I still haven't played Forza Horizon but I'm having fun listening to both of you! open.spotify.com/show/2uajC8dW… In conversation from friendica.mrpetovan.com permalink -

I don't believe product executives would be personally involved with potential chargebacks, so an executive (I'm guessing the CFO or someone in their department) definitely got involved in this decision if it's for the plausible reason you suggested.

In the context of a heterosexual monogamous relationship, it represents a certain amount of social expectations placed on the woman specifically, like keeping the couple's home clean, taking care of children, listening to the man's personal issues but not bothering him with hers, etc...

Believe it or not, I did make the link between the [italic~irony]legend in your display name and what you wrote, but even knowing it was irony, I couldn't guess what you meant given the brevity. Sarcasm and irony both requires a shared context to be understood, and that's why it's difficult to convey through public written text. The problem isn't so much the "written" part than the "public" one since there's a low chance anyone will have the same context as you when reading your words.In conversation from friendica.mrpetovan.com permalink -

People publicly concerned about humanity’s extinction are just laundering their utter lack of empathy towards their fellow humans into excitement for space tech and eugenics while trying to sound deep. In conversation from friendica.mrpetovan.com permalink
