Yes. But I’m calling out ignorance that fails to recognize that many “chemicals” are totally harmless in small doses or sourced from natural sources. People see a long name and assume it’s bad.

You know what else has chemicals? You do Chief

Some insanely goated years here. 1997, 1998, 2001, 2007. 2011 maybe most of all. Insane that those five paradigm shifting games came out in one year

Lived in the Deep South most of my life and you never get over it. Walking from the car to the front door and you’re already drenched

Before people from the desert claim this is normal, I’d remind them that North Carolina is also humid as all hell

I adore this album especially. But if it’s TWOD I’ll probably like it

Genuinely hearing other people’s experiences of these games/helping them through is THE single most rewarding part of being a fan of them. Elden Ring is maybe my all time favorite game but the community is still king

Just so many of my all time favorites. Fallout 1&2, Thief 1&2, Half Life, Deus Ex, Baldurs Gate 1&2

I could see the argument that 1997-2001 was perhaps the strongest five consecutive years for games. I’m sure it’s just bias talking but it feels right

Came is simply special on its own because most don’t have it a lot, regardless of type

Star Wars fans are the fandom version of Universalists

There was discussion in the Star Wars fans that Partagaz did that because he was convinced by Nemik’s manifesto (?) and that this was an act of rebellion (??). Incredible levels of understanding the plot

Star Wars fans cannot understand that she would almost certainly kill herself before doing that

The concept of SH4 is so good that it almost completely makes up for its shortcomings. The idea of a safe space getting less safe, it’s just horror game gold

Probably the best thing I've ever seen happen at Catholic Mass was when I visited a parish in Harlem with insanely good gospel music, and after the final blessing the priest came down to the aisle, sat in a chair with a notebook, and asked "So who needs help this week" and started organizing it

Guarantee more Protestants would be impressed with a homily that taught justification than one that explains why the pope is good actually

Repeating “folks it’s not a symbol” is classic apologetics based preaching. You’re trying to counter Protestants. Just like preach the gospel bro

The problem is the basics is always stuff like “here’s a primer on Aristotle” and not like the means and purpose of our sacrifice in the Mass, or preaching salvation by faith

Low sanguinity is almost always fatal. I should know. I’ve given hundreds of random blood transfusions and very few survive

This was funny enough our experience at our local Latin Mass parish. The pastor explicitly preached about the virtues of being normal once, and another banger about avoiding online hatefulness

I agree. It’s more explicit in the books too. I just think the originals do that more eloquently

Liking any season is basically all about loving the ways you counteract that season’s worst features - do you prefer cozying up in winter or cooling off in summer basically

Not saying he has a perfect track record or w/e but we need someone who will not shy away from the many many moral failings of our societies at large

I’m not above Dino island schlock either. I liked the Lost World and JP3 and am cautiously optimistic about Rebirth just because it seems to return to the basic premise

The original movie said the same stuff about genetic power and loss of control without resorting to super Dinos who had magic powers

Jurassic world also obviously had nothing new to say, which becomes painfully obvious if you imagine what the story would be like if the Indominus Rex was replaced by a standard T Rex
