    Game Theory:
    Untitled Goose Game takes place in a post-scarcity utopia, where all work is voluntary (nobody seems to care that much about the fact that their store has no customers, etc), and the only negative part of anyone's life is The Goose.
    The reason people don't try that hard to stop The Goose is that it's one of the few truly unpredictable challenges left in their lives, and they enjoy that.

    My theory on why so many of us queers love the cosmic horror aesthetic so much is basically that we're all very used to feeling like the universe around us is illogical cold uncaring nonsense with made up rules and arcane ancient rituals.

    "Why am I not allowed to kiss other girls?"
    "Why is that activity something that only boys are allowed to do?"
    We get vague answers like "Because that's how it's always beeeen!" and "It simply isn't done!!!", and fuck me if that doesn't sound like you're surrounded by an alien cult with rules that don't line up with actual reality. Only natural we start to see the universe that way.

    I like how we just used to use "sticks"/cylinders with evenly spaced numbers on the sides as dice. You'll see references in early history to "throwing the sticks" and that's what it means.
    It's a pretty damn convenient idea that you could do yourself if you have a dowel rod handy, and it lets you easily create "impossible dice" like the d7, d3, etc.
    (There are some solid arguments for actual dice-shaped versions of these sortsa things these days, and you'd be surprised how good they look, but this just illustrates how rad sticks are - they solve such a complicated geometric problem via bruteforcing.)

    Ultimate late stage capitalism: Literally mocking commuters about how they can't avoid being bombarded by your adverts.
