It is a problem with the nature of the news feed/Twitter. You end up getting articles out of context and not seeing how the rest of the site is full of garbage rumors that have already been debunked.

Kruggsmash, the amazing Dwarf Fortress youtuber fella, did a short fort testing out the new stress system from a recent update with the fortress of Murderhall. Good name. Terrible fortress with the worst luck. He decided to just let things go to hell and see how the stress worked out, and hey, it's less nightmarish than it used to be, which will be good for future fortresses of his. Not having to constantly babysit everything so tantrum spirals don't tear apart the fortress will certainly help cut down on his workload.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DHHw_I0u0s&hd=1

he also had a surprise at the end of the Murderhall finale: some realtalk along with a facecam! who knew the dwarf fortress LP guy was also a (fantasy) dwarf himself.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DvNWjMrQpY&hd=1&t=813s

I like the Murderhall method, I think somewhere between that and the previous stuff, where he does artwork of the forgotten beasts, artifacts, maybe some important moments would be great. Not driving himself into the ground drawing everything all the time.

Okay. But what about God?

Because I saw somebody elsewhere bring up this one channel where a lady just reads passages from the bible, like the actual bible and it sounds normal so far. Maybe it's a type of holy ASMR. But the entire time she has her feet in front the camera. Just flexing her bare-loving feet while she's reading passages. And you know why her feet are on screen, and I know why they're on the screen, but does Jesus know why they're on the screen?

Jesus doesn't exist, so probably not.

Though the real Jesus, the person, was all about love and poo poo, so if he was still alive, he'd also probably be fine with this weird sex thing.

The best part about the Dwarf Fortress stress system when it was first introduced, a baby could be born in your fortress whose favorite food was (1) not something available here and therefore they couldn't have developed a taste for but also (2) only grew in a special biome that means it's now either extinct or never even existed in the first place, leading them to be constantly 24/7 stressed out for their entire life until they snap and the guard beats them to death because they never got to eat an imaginary animal.

having disturbing flashbacks to the Gamespot OffTopic forum I frequented as a kid, where amongst the daily "whats better rap or rock??" threads, there were constant Christian ministry threads created by a regular rotation of weirdos trying to convert the heathens to Christianity.

the guy who created them was an older man who would recruit kids into a secret subforum to teach them bible lessons and evangelize correctly. I shudder to think what other kinds of weird poo poo was going on.

Man I hate these people a whole lot because I used to actively watch them at work, when I was a lot younger and in like mid to late teens and more of an rear end in ways (But I still feel proud of myself some for this "trolly poo poo"), more than once I 'infiltrated' a couple christian gaming forums and would try to even slightly deprogam other queers I'd suss out or otherwise spot with more ease, I remember talking a handful into like talking to me about gay stuff and calmly supporting and validating their thoughts a lot and it made me genuinely happy to see at least a few of them seemingly come off the sad states of dogwhistle and otherwise homophobic browbeating they got from others or the people running them at times, I always hope they broke off and told those people to gently caress off and just found some more progressive or otherwise better overall places, even if it would still be a religious circle. One I stayed friends with ever since sure did, cause he's a massive flaming queen nowadays in the best way of saying that.

I understand the sequel trilogy has its issues (especially the last one) but they made big money and they aren't going to redo three movies especially with Ford having enough, Fisher being dead and Hamill warming up to Old Luke.

If anything was to be taken from Rise of Skywalker, drastically changing things as a response to criticism is way messier than accepting what was put on the dinner plate.

disney won't do anything. they will make a bunch of shows that will mostly be good to alright and a movie once and movie series once an while. maybe in like 15 years, they will make another trilogy thats "main canon". the people bitching keep hoping to have their poo poo validated, which won't happen because disney doesn't give a gently caress about your chud complaints now. i grew up with the star wars rereleases and the prequels, star wars helped me get through some hard medical poo poo. i was on a vent at 10 years old or so, playing with the action fleet figures. i grew up, don't care for the prequels even though i liked them when i was younger and i liked 2/3 of the new trilogy, but nothing RUINED my childhood. poo poo changes, change is eternal, some poo poo works better changed and others don't. stop going insane and racist from it.

I think chuds will try to scramble to find something of modern Star Wars that they say they like so they can try to keep in the discussion to give the idea that they're not just bitter nerds. They tried to hook onto Mandalorian as being TRUE STAR WARS but that grift was easily noticeable regarding Gina. The moment they stop talking about Star Wars is when their viewers and subscriptions decline. Even good faith Star Wars fans have moved on from their thoughts of Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker and are just going on to new franchise installments or looking into the old stuff.

Speaking of looking into the old stuff, there's the 'A More Civilized Age' podcast by Austin Walker that just started this year which covers the politics and themes of the Clone Wars era of Star Wars. If you're tired of hearing 3-hour long reviews of the Star Wars prequels, you can skip ahead to their episode of the 2008 3D Clone Wars movie. Then they shrink down to 2-hour episodes and cover 3 episodes of the 3D Clone Wars show in each. I loved Austin's 'Friends at the Table' and it feels good to listen to dorks yammer about Star Wars that don't sound bitter.

i will listen to austin and rob talk about anything, i think their approach is really smart and it's very much not the typical FANCAST type thing. they're more interested in trying to suss out the vibe of star wars fandom and the show's place in "making up" for the prequels and the like, it's a very interesting take about star wars from interesting people. it's cool.

i am mixed on waypoint, but i will give it a shot. i always liked expounded universe but i haven't listened to them in like 3 years. anyway. yeah, the chuds are trying to find something that will kick off another Gate type deal but star wars is a tapped out vein and i think alot of folks just don't give a gently caress anymore espcially after 4 years of trump type loud assholes screaming 24/7. hell i am tired in general.

one of the reasons i like SA is when i go to Games or book barn, its mostly a chill place and people don't get super loving mad about nerd poo poo. like yeah disecting and talking politics in nerd poo poo(in all the ways) can be fun and interesting but on SA, its chill, every other place i have looked at, doesnt seem that way. its either full of weird chud types who get mad about women/minorities or its some weird twitter/resetera/facebook nerd group struggle session purity poo poo where everyone argues of minutia of political theory instead of talking about politcs in _____ nerd property or even the nerd property in general. this isnt some sorkin scream for decorum or call outs. i mean this place is cool and good and a nice spot away from loud bullshit about space movies. also lol gently caress gina.
