Here's the sad thing dawg. I love the tacticool aesthetic. I love the feel of the material and I love patches. But the entire industry is propped up and advertised for these "I am a manly man man who man's harder than women and other men" and that's so sad. It's an aesthetic ruined by the culture it belongs to.

Personal property is not private property. Your house is not the means of production.

It's a invite by the state ,who truely in all practical terms owns the house, to enter the house. They have the authority higher than that of the owner and are able to overrule them in decisions pertaining to access to the house.

Now hold on. The man's house does not exist in a vaccume but within a state and the owner who owns it only does so at the pleasure of that state. In a sense the owner is maybe the one most directly in control over who can and can't come in but he does not have final say. That comes from the states monopoly on violence able to will themselves into houses under their jurisdiction given the right legal work.

You might say no, in which case is the owner of the house the only one able to invite a vampire in? No other person with access or implied authority can? No roommate, child, house guest? I think we can all agree that the vampire would be able to enter with those peoples permissions and I would argue the state has more actual authority to pick and choose who can enter the house than any of the examples.

This vampire cop is truly unstoppable.

Brother it sounds like you underestimate what industrializing the largest population on earth looks like. It's not just happening, it's kinda inevitable.

Hi. Texas conservatives in Houston took over the city schools and removed libraries to create a prison inside the school itself. Fuck you and your talks of censorship. You don't know censorship and think the conservacucks don't do it because they ain't targeting your white cis heterosexual ass. You have no opinion worth censoring because your just that white bread bland.

My brother in Christ they are a self proclaimed anti queer conservative organization. Do you want to be right? Do you care if you're correct or not? Or do you want to blame everything on the ghosts in your head?

Upset about conservatives and their puritanical practices. Votes for puritanical conservatives. What, do you think because he fucks kids he will allow your gooner game?

Brother, I cannot express to you how weird it is that you so blatantly throw gazan lives in the "already dead pile, so not really apart of the conversation, except for those who want no dead people. Those are the real killers. Not the killers I want you to vote for. You practically voted for the killers I didn't want you to vote for!"

Look brother. At the end of the day, we both voted for a genocidal regime. I took it as an unfortunate lesser evil choice that failed due to the lesser evil not being lesser enough on the evil.

You sit here and argue some weird logical loop that somehow means you actually, the guy who voted for the genocidal regime, are somehow less culpable to that continued genocide than the person who couldn't condone that coming from their actions.

It's weird. It's self righteous and I don't get it. You got off the hook. You don't get to see the genocide you voted for, you got a different one you didn't. But that doesn't absolve you and it doesn't absolve me. Eat it and move on with more productive things.

[–] SmilingSolaris@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago (4 children)

And I get that. But I also get not wanting to vote for someone who is willing to save you but not willing to save someone you think is also worth saving. That's a pretty large ask of someone morally. At what point do you stop blaming the people who's morals held them to too high a standard and start blaming the people who couldn't meet the bar of "don't support a genocide".

Like, your really going to spend time,effort and soul into being mad at the guy unwilling to compromise on their morality for their own safety rather than the guys who can't stack up to what should be an easy ask?

Just weird priorities brother. I get the harm reduction argument. I voted and whatnot. But the moment that election was over, I was way more mad at the folks who couldn't help but declare how much they won't budge on genocide instead of my friends and ideological comrades. At the end of the day it was those running the election who lost it.

Brother told me he will keep attacking leftists who "didn't vote for harm reduction" until he gets an "olive branch" from those leftist ghosts living in his head.

[–] SmilingSolaris@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago (6 children)

Idk man. It sounds like your not really angry at a person or an organization but a straw man you built up in your head. What your asking for is for a vague group of leftists to apologize.

 
 

We were streaming a lil "end of the year awards" and toast walked in. She is not supposed to be upstairs so ran the moment she saw we noticed her. https://www.twitch.tv/smilingsolaris

 

I added the trait BUT STILL! Settled in Trout's Mistake Forest and on spawn there is a RANDOMLY GENERATED WILD MAN NAMED TROUT. He is in the colony now. You can come revel in his mistakes on stream as well. https://www.twitch.tv/smilingsolaris

 

Heyo, For anyone who want's I am streaming the Generations II modpack on twitch. That's where the dino hat came from, a T-Rex attacked the colony and surprisingly no one died (it was injured after munching on some more advanced visitors)

So I want to say that I have tried to get into FFXIV many many times over a few years. I always got bounced off by how dense the dialogue is and how long it was taking to get anywhere and anything done. I would quit and come back in a few months to try again at my friends behest. The amount of times I've had to stop and google a new word the dialogue said. lol.

But I didn't want to start skipping dialogue and cutscenes and whatnot cause then what am I even playing for? So I took my time, played when I wanted and slowly made it through ARR over the course of 2 years.

And by god was it worth it. By the end I felt I really understood this world, and its people and politics. I started seeing callbacks, referencing previous quests that I had just almost forgot about. I cried when the thing that would be spoilers to talk about happened at the end of ARR. I have become attached to my grand companies and my city.

My wife plays too but they got socially anxious about all the dungeons so now they spend all their time in the golden saucer running fates. I love that they are around.

The community on Farie as well has been amazing. I have not a single bad experience. I play tank for the record and come from WoW so when I fucked up I expected straight vitriol. But never once did I ever experience any kinda toxicity whatsoever. One time I was fiddling with my settings before a dungeon labeled (hard) and accidently left battle effects on full. I load into the dungeon and my eyes glaze over with the amount of stuff flying around the screen so i ask the crew to stop and let me turn it down. They do but the healer immediately just leaves the party. The other two commiserated with me and stuck around waiting for the replacement rather than abandoning the party as well. And the new healer was cool! fun guy in the chat!

I just wanted to share this with yall. It's the best MMO experience I've ever had and I cant wait to actually be doing the MMO stuff I love like hard AF raids and endgame stuff. But i will not rush the expansions. I will continue taking it at the pace that i feel comfortable with and only hope i outpace the release of new content. I'll catch up eventually.

 

This was in Lemmy world politics.
