       Even though the Focus system in Warframe is super unpolished, it's much better than the previous state of things.You know, where you just weren't allowed to use your favorite items unless you were okay with actively experiencing EXP waste. How the heck did they let that stay in a game for so long?

       Having special interests kind of sucks, because it turns my Mastodon page into nonsense that few care about, and then I lose the hyperfixation and don't care about it either after a while.At least I tend to cycle back round to interests every couple years. That's always good.

       people are always like "wow, my social network of choice is total garbage and getting worse every day! I want to leave and go somewhere better! And No I Will Not Join Mastodon Stop Asking."like...?? what? Why is it that there's this innate disinterest in trying Mastodon, from everyone, to the point that they dismiss the very idea as silly? they know that they can make their own Instances and defederate from all of us who are already here, if we're the problem, right? They'd get to have their own version of Twitter with any community balance they want. What keeps them away when their experience can be however they want it to be? What reasons are left?

       Kind of annoyed when people go super hard on anime character outfits with like "they look like they put on everything in their wardrobe at the same time and then got caught in an exploding Steampunk Hot Topic at a Renaissance Faire"like... no? she has goggles that she "never wears" because she's a pro-level paraglider, says so in her bio. She's wearing three layers of clothes and that's not actually that much historically. There *are* ridiculous anime character designs, but you're being needlessly reductive to make sure that all characters fit in this stereotype you made.

       @vaartis I never thought I'd be particularly happy to see cheesy old Russel back in the driver's seat, but after an entire regeneration of basically nothing happening, I'll take anyone who has a good track record of making interesting Who.

       Virtual pet fandoms such as Neopets and Pokemon have highly queer userbases because the crossover between something traditionally masculine (games and fighting) and traditionally feminine (pets and caring) allowed kids to experience a truly genderfucked/neutral space, where they had the most freedom to express themselves.

       NFTs are clearly a direct response to a modern world in which it's rare for anyone to actually *own* anything, instead renting/streaming it all from five companiesso, of course, instead of taking the message from this that we're living in a fucking serfdom and that's not okaythese bros are just like "well *I* wanna own things so I'm gonna set up a system where a lot of people lie to me about how much I own this monkey to make me feel better"seems like 90% of what techbros do is respond poorly to how hellish the world is by creating a magical illusory internety alternative to everything

       @stux I find it honestly easier to understand the newer RS, because OSRS has a whole bunch of weird extra content that's shoved off to the side and it's all the most *important* content, so you'll be wearing Bandos and a Godsword and people will say "lol you need to get the Fuckoff Greaves from Kro'tsaroth on Zeoh if you want to not die, noob"and you have to figure it all out via word of mouth because people are really cold about it.whereas in RS3, most online content about RS3 is "so you've been gone for ten years, here's what you missed!" and it's all very helpful and easy to learn.Also OSRS has a biiiiig nazi problem and RS3 doesn't so that's nice.But for casual play I definitely understand OSRS being the more approachable one since all the low and mid tier content is really intuitive and familiar for old RS2 players.

       when rich people say they don't want UBI, the funny thing is that they already get very robust UBI, we just only give UBI to rich people and call it bank interest and stock management.I've known rich people, even the average among them get way more money than the wage of any job I'll ever achieve, for free, constantly, just *because* they're already rich.

       like, I feel like most people don't realize this, and think "well they still have to work or they use all the money up, no matter how much money it is."but, like, no. That's not true. Banks pay them to exist. They do not ever need to work and largely don't work.

       Daily reminder, especially for those who just got here, that you probably shouldn't curate a perfect version of yourself as a social media persona. Hierarchies demand that you hide your true self away and try to trim and prune your avatar to be the highest ranked object it can be, and that's only good for people at the tops of those hierarchies - not you, and not your community, who can't access you. It stops us from talking about what's actually important - what we have in common, what's wrong, and what we're going to do about it.So please, reach out, complain, empathize, shitpost, and let your freak flag fly.

       guys, if you're explaining a trick taking card game, the first thing you need to say is "do you know what trick taking is?"and then the second thing you need to say is "yes, it's really nonsensical that the piles of cards you collect are called "tricks", there is absolutely no good reason for it and i deeply empathize with your confusion, fuck the name of this genre. anyway,".

       i'm unironically really enjoying Nothing, Forever - the AI generated episode of Seinfeld that never ends, on Twitch.heard some of the best surreal humor in my life in there, including "Well, it'll be a small wedding - just me, the priest, and one of those inflatable waving tube men from outside a car dealership."
