That bit was regarding why they wouldn’t do the same thing regarding one’s father

Personally I think it’d be a power move to say I fucked you’re dad

The whatever reason bring that they’d have played themselves because homophobia.

I imagine the potency of yo mama jokes that focus on banging her, as opposed to accentuating how ugly she is, comes from the discomfort of sexualizing someone that you want to not have sexualized given your intimacy with her. Reframing your mom as a sexual being rewrites the experience of affection with her, for example.

The ugliness piece devalues someone precious to you.

I also thinks it’s just a rules of the game that people decide on and then forget. Participating in a game about who will gets upset, everyone implicitly agrees that this is something they can fall prey to having a reaction about. Sort of social game theory

The correct answer, as they say, is always in the comments

This is our innate state, IMO. We are social, creative people. The impulse to help and participate comes first and then is warped by our societal structure where everything gets monetized. I follow the Skyrim mod scene just for that hit of seeing this generosity at play

Dang. Take the hint, Terminator

I had to look up what gyro aiming is. FYI for others: https://www.33rdsquare.com/what-does-gyro-aiming-mean-an-in-depth-look-at-the-next-evolution-in-gaming-controls/

Dead Space (remastered, I guess?). Only played a demo version that had 5 minutes of play, way back in the aughts, and have been meaning to try it since.

Oh, nothing about our culture would permit someone to do that. I don’t expect him to. It’s just a nice fantasy

Not only switch candidates, but have Biden have the humility to back that person. Do it in the name of Democracy, you know: this election is too important and I realize we need a stronger candidate than I can be. That would sell well, and that’s what’s needed for better or worse: a good narrative

As far as effort? You’re right

They keep referencing The Outer Worlds for comparison. Wasn’t that game kinda panned?

It’s really tough to push past and ignore that first part to get to answering your question. Like, that elephant taking up the whole room and trumpeting

Needs to be more liquid

I don’t want my parents to experience my death / want to make sure they are helped in their last years. I’ve told them that there’s an expiration onn that though. Like, you wanna live to 100? You’ll be doing it without me.

Ditto, thanks to everyone’s for their suggestions

Is there a magazine or site that breaks this down for the less tech savvy? And is the quality of the AI on par?

That headline reads like it’s telling us the results of a study

That summary history tho: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Victoria_Murdock_(Earth-616)

I appreciate this take

On CL there’s a dedicated place to seek roommates and no shortage of people seeking that arrangement. Not clear why people spam the apartment rental section
