So I've always thought my lungs were a bit rubbish. Streamer and Youtubesman Woolie Madden gets that too, so you're not alone there. I don't think he's ever mentioned having lung problems, though.

The last one, the one replying to Dolores, is a very confused old person who doesn't get how replying to things on the online works. They've copied the whole text of what they're replying to to call it bullshit. Like if I did this I'm not certain those tweets are serious/bots? I mean if they were a disinformation bot why would they reply to the message they're copying. That's like me trying to steal someone's invention by referencing their original patent, a bit self defeating. I disagree!

She's been a lap cat ever since. I think the fact that, after a couple of homes that didn't work out, we were the ones who came back, that was what proved we were good 'uns to her.

Redwood isn't trying to suggest a solution, he's just taking a dig at the mythical army of Useless Managers sucking up all the NHS's money. We must starve the NHS, you see, to show them how useless they are. Everything will be ok once the useless managers are gone. What's that? You're asking who decides what gets cut when money is short? Don't worry about that

I assumed it was 'brave' as in "a Red Indian brave", ie very racist and outdated language, but then I wouldn't know why it needs to be said now. Are Americans going around calling themselves or each other braves?

The one about whitespace is genuinely silly because there's nothing good or bad about whitespace, it's empty, it's as neutral a thing as you can get. You can have too much or too little or just enough, and if you code in python you can have the wrong kind and get in a fight. It's just called white because that's the colour of paper.

The Nintendo membership only gates online play and the emulators. They could perfectly happily play, say, Untitled Goose Game without it. There's no Mega Man because those are sold as the Legacy Collection packs. If you want a good Tetris game, get the latest Puyo Puyo Tetris - you can play either game by itself or mixed in the weird vs mode.

Tesseraction posted:Souls games are absolutely not for everyone and it's rather annoying that people say that they are. I beat DS1 and enjoyed it, I started DS2 and it sucked, I got to the final boss of DS3 and couldn't beat him in the first session and then decided who gives a gently caress. DS2 just is very poo poo and deliberately cruel thoigh, in a way the others really aren't. Especially the Scholar version and its favourite trick, hiding enemies in nooks and crannies way above you so they can drop on you and take you by surprise. DS3 is still hard, but it's fair.

Dark Souls 1, specifically, is about as much of a knowledge game as it is about reflex skill. Beating regular grunts is easy, almost rhythmic - block their attack, hit them while they're flailing around from bouncing off, block, stab, block, stab. If they have a big shield, they're trying to do that to you, so you kick the shield out of the way and stab them instead. The input to do a kick is physically tricky for just about everyone, but there are other options, like two-handing your weapon so you don't bounce off and can wear them down. I'm sure there are disabilities serious enough that you can't handle the really, really loose and generous timings involved, like we're talking multiple seconds to hit back after you block them, but they'd have to be pretty bad. As for bosses, there are some optional fights, mostly in the DLC, where your only real option is to knuckle down and fight a thing good, but for the critical path, it's mostly about knowing, learning or figuring out one extra thing. This one is really vulnerable to dropping on its head, that one is trivial if you stay behind it, etc. Even the notorious nightmares like Capra Demon have a trick that once you know it, the fight gets a lot easier. I've said enough about DS2 (it is a bad game), DS3 and Bloodborne are much more along the lines of action-heavy skill games with a ton of fights that are all about dodging good and swinging good.

Some people are lucky enough to be born into a situation where they're raised well and taught the right ways to behave. Many, I would guess many more, are not. Condemning those people because they didn't have guidance, or had wrong guidance, and didn't think to reject everything their entire history of socialisation told them and reinvent leftism from first principles, is... I don't think I can pick the appropriate word. Silly, for a start. Heartless. Strategically unwise.

OwlFancier posted:Fascists are offering them what they want. Because what they want is state and social enforcement of a system that allows them to functionally and or literally own women. They are not just lured in by fascists being nice to them, they have already internalized and adopted a key position of fascist and especailly modern christian dominionist thinking, which in turn is why the fascists are nice to them. Because they very accuratley perceive them as being already most of the way to their position. No, they want that because the fascists are telling them to. Most of them don't start out believing that women should be property. They get radicalised into it from a very simple and approachable starting position, which is that they want to go on dates but they don't know how to make new connections. Sure, deradicalising people once they've been got is difficult, and I'll bow to anyone with a good argument for that not being worth the time, but it's really worrying that you'd write people off and let the fascists have them at the point that all they are is awkward young men.
