Munch Squad may be hit or miss, but it did bring the Chicken Sandwich Wars to my attention. I don't watch a lot of stuff with commercial breaks in it, but the one time I did in the past week there were like 4 separate chicken sandwich commercials from McDonald's, KFC, Arby's, and Popeyes within a single hour. It's real. The Chicken Sandwich Wars are real. It's not just a press release thing.

no its still a press release thing because its all just a big gimmick

you can't just throw something like this out there, what's the story?



fishingboatproceeds was john green's tumblr and after someone edited one of his posts to be what you're seeing now, tumblr removed the ability to edit posts from the website entirely

e: also im glad this thread has finally reached 2011-era roleplaying game forum level "but what is a game?????"

The Quiet Year is also like, 100% A Game with goals and an end-state though

quote:

The Quiet Year is a map game. You define the struggles of a community living after the collapse of civilization, and attempt to build something good within their quiet year. Every decision and every action is set against a backdrop of dwindling time and rising concern.

The game is played using a deck of cards – each of the 52 cards corresponds to a week during the quiet year. Each card triggers certain events – bringing bad news, good omens, project delays and sudden changes in luck. At the end of the quiet year, the Frost Shepherds will come, ending the game.

My thinking is that they could do it Dark Souls style, where they build up this fully developed lore behind the scenes but there’s no big exposition dump for any of it, and then as they play they just discover the remnants of the old world as they go. Maybe that’s more tricky than it sounds but the way I imagine it playing out it doesn’t seem any more difficult than anything they’ve already done.

Overcast will dynamically cut out silences/breaks so there is no need for that sort of business. I’ve apparently “saved” 330 hours at this point.


Now if you’re doing a video course or whatever that’s another matter entirely.

i accidentally listened to a podcast with that kind of "silence editing" and it was loving torturous, i don't know what kind of lives you people are leading where you're like "i need this podcast i'm listening to to end as quickly as possible to get on to the next one that i also need to end as quickly as possible"

You 100% typed "in 2021" first then realized the game came out this year didn't you?

no my mind caught me before i started typing it but i did consider it before realizing

though honestly i could have said that before the game even came out and still been right
