31 year old man working for the man in northern Alabama. I'm still trying to keep myself in the game.

I should work harder towards finding someone to bring to that wedding in March.

so as i understand it unlike most games dark souls doesnt respawn you kind of near the boss fight when you die, so every time you die to a boss you have to go all the way back through the level to fight them, so to me there are two possibilities 1) the boss fights are actually pretty easy, so you dont have to fight them that many times before you beat them, or 2) the experience of beating a boss is incredibly tedious, as you have to redo a bunch of stuff youve already proved you can can do so you can get to the new stuff you havent beaten yet. the former is basically a fine choice, not all games with bosses have the challenge focused in the bosses, but i think the latter is the true one, which just seems...straightforwardly bad?

You're right, but if there's any merit in making you replay the level, it's that you might be good enough to survive the level, but the game wants you to beat the level so soundly that you have enough resources to face the boss.

Thank you for recommending "Each According to Her Needs". It was very sweet.

The war is over and the victorious rebels must begin to learn to heal and rebuild. Even the tortured and barren land is starting to show signs of life. But some scars are deeper than the skin, and some of the empire's sins will not be easy to forget.

Can you have a group that contains a set of infinitely many subgroups such that no subgroup contains another but they have non trivial intersection? I was trying to think of one but I think you need a group that has infinite subgroups with infinite quotients which then gets you into like lie group type territory or something. I don't THINK SO(3) has this property because like the infinite subgroups are rotations about an axis and they have trivial intersection? Maybe if you used some messy super free group, like permutations of N or something... Oh and then you could just have like, the intersection being permutations that fix some subset, with each larger subgroup being permutations that fix some larger subset, but with those subsets not containing each other. Nice I think that works

If every nontrivial proper subgroup contains no proper subgroups, then they are all cyclic of prime order. It cannot be abelian, because then the product of generators of distinct subgroups would give a cyclic subgroup of semiprime order. But you could have a word group with an infinite alphabet where any finite string repeated seven times is the identity, for instance.

CITIZEN: IT HAS BEEN 237 YEARS SINCE YOU ENTERED YOUR CRYOCHAMBER. THE NATION YOU ONCE BELONGED TO, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, NOW CONSISTS OF 50 AUTONOMOUS CITY-STATES EXISTING TOGETHER IN A LARGER POLITICAL UNION, THE CONFEDERAL NATIONS OF AMERICA. THESE NATIONS ARE ARRANGED PRIMARILY ON THE PRINCIPLE OF CIRCUMFERENTIAL DISTANCE TO THE NEAREST ECONOMICALLY POWERFUL METROPOLITAN AREA. SELECT YOUR PREVIOUS PLACE OF LIVING FOR YOUR NEW CITIZENSHIP

Excuse me the entire population of Maine would die before letting Massachusetts have them again

CITIZEN: IT HAS BEEN 237 YEARS. THE GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO EXISTED IN YOUR TIME AS “THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF MAINE” HAS IN FACT DIED

How are you going to make San Francisco and San Jose separate states when they’re basically the same city? You can drive from one to the other in 30 minutes without noticing the cityness even slightly diminish. If they weren’t hugely populated and were instead placed in somewhere like North Carolina, they’d just be two sides of the same city.

That was before the sarin gas attacks of 2103.

Tumblr: website where a bunch of people can lay claim to poorly documented pagan religions without any complaints but if you say you're an atheist a bunch of randoms crawl out of the woodwork to tell you you're actually Christian.

Partisan polarization has long been a fact of political life in the United States, but deeply negative views of the opposing party are far more widespread than in the past.

Increasingly, Republicans and Democrats view not just the opposing party but also the people in that party in a negative light. Growing shares in each party now describe those in the other party as more closed-minded, dishonest, immoral and unintelligent than other Americans.

Perhaps the most striking change is the extent to which partisans view those in the opposing party as immoral. In 2016, about half of Republicans (47%) and slightly more than a third of Democrats (35%) said those in the other party were a lot or somewhat more immoral than other Americans. Today, 72% of Republicans regard Democrats as more immoral, and 63% of Democrats say the same about Republicans.

Good. In a game of life and death, opposing sides should be bitter rivals.

an angel would fuck a streetlamp and it would be nothing. it would be like a dog thoughtlessly rutting against a couch: pure instinctual pleasure chasing with something that may elicit but not share in your libido. but if an angel fucked a cell tower then viable offspring could very well result

They're both messengers.

Individualism is a poison upon this earth.

You and i overlap in more categories than we remain seperate. A mirror is held up every time you face another human. I am you and you are me bitch

Looking at the notes is so fucking funny cause literally everyone is like “no thank I am the exception” lol no you are not. All your experiences are cosmically mundane and you gotta learn to see the beauty in that instead of feeling threatened.

Individualism exists not in the uniqueness of experience or of character, but in the isolation of mind and of body. We all hurt, but my pain hurts only me. We all hunger, but my food nourishes only me.

it's kind of nuts how many people on here say they are critical of America, but retain these impossibly strong American puritanical values.

I've talked to so many liberals who were horrified by the idea of communal baths and freak out when I talk about going to Korean bath houses or a nudist hot springs where gasp, children can see naked bodies of all genders. Like, you are the weirdos if you think grandma's tits are an issue, that's you problem my American friends.

Nudity is not inherently sexual and sexual things are not inherently bad. In fact, seeing a bunch of naked old people growing up probably helped me resist the ubiquitous problem of body issues as a teenage girl. If you see enough saggy ass you realize we're all headed to the same place and also secondarily, if you watch them playing naked volley ball you also no longer afraid to die.

"You say you're critical of American hegemony, yet you won't admit that American culture is evil and bad. I am very smart."

The game can be played in and out of browser as well (downloadable version runs way better)! Options are nice! Duel with other people’s custom made BOYZ by exchanging codes or fight through a short arcade ladder against some mean reptiles!

You meet a tipsy mouse at a party and she's laughing too hard at your jokes... Maybe she thinks you're cute....?

I wish we had like...a pigeon-type creature (used to humans, semi domesticated, commonly lives feral) but for large mammals. Like what if there were like horses just around. Feed them oats. That would be so sick

I've heard that a long time ago in parts of Europe, there were wild pigs in the city streets. Feeding them was considered an act of charity, as the poor would eventually eat the fattened pig.

you know how in video games there's sometimes a character (or maybe you'll just cary a journal) that you can interact with to get a reminder of what it is that you're supposed to be doing right now?

ive always thought it would be funny if that character just gave you socratic questions and the reminders (mostly) appeared as things that the player character tells them in response

i guess that character could be a fortune teller who blatantly cold-reads the player character instead too

There's a game where the hints take the form on one character giving absolutely terrible ideas and the player character correcting her.

My brother is moving in with me and one of the high lights so far has been buying more towels. Fresh and fluffy right out of the box, before the wash has had a chance to take out some fibers.

nice towels are so fucking great, like a nice big thick towel is amazing. definitely worse the price imo. small towels are so frustrating
