honestly a big indicator of a good game for me is the ability to just chill in it. if you can enjoy yourself just stopping to take in the scenery and listen to the music and ambience, or hanging out on the title screen, or ignoring the main gameplay to go off and screw around picking flowers, or even just mousing over all the menu options for the tactile feedback, chances are it’s a good fucking game
It actually pisses me off more knowing Tumblr was perfectly able to solve its cp problem but just didn’t until it ended up on the news
I dunno if banning half the userbase with poorly-coded bots qualifies as “perfectly able”
Despite glitchiness, they wiped MAP and MAP positivity tags, have put in a new report for drawn CP, have cleared out drawn CP tags, have deleted multiple known pedophiles’ blogs.
Even if some people had to be taken down on the way (with a system in place that makes your blog easily obtainable if you feel you’ve been wrongly deleted, with all of your posts and blogs still in tact), they fixed the problem within a few days.
So, to reiterate:
Tumblr was perfectly able to solve its cp problem but just didn’t until it ended up on the news
Further, the bots were poorly-coded because they were slapped together too quickly as a form of “damage control” in order to address the app being removed from app stores.
Had they done things the right way from the start, taken the time to design better bots or systems, the improper deletions wouldn’t have happened, or at least could have been far more limited.
They had plenty of time; the users have been asking for these issues to be addressed for years, after all.
i get why caesar is confident that the legion will take over hoover dam and new vegas. he has the numbers and loyalty/fear from his troops and the fact that he lost last time was kind of a fluke. however, he failed to take one thing into consideration: i hate him. i have the ability to run into his shitty hell fort and kill everyone with a chainsaw because i control the main character of the game, and i will in fact do that because i hate him.
boy this is a wild ride of a post if you don’t play fallout
Imagine typing out this letter and not stopping halfway and thinking “Hmmm, this makes me sound like the worst human being in the world.”
Holy fucking shit
Imagine receiving a gift that someone spent weeks, if not months, building from scratch and probably destroying their wrists and hands making and your reaction is, “How DARE you?”
This is what happens when you devalue labor. Her time probably cost more than the yarn did in the end, but because her time and skill don’t have a price tag attached to them, this woman acts like her DIL just handed them back the gift card.
boy, i hope the advice columnist tore her apart.
More or less.
But nothing did happen. You received a thoughtful gift that cost more time than money. That’s it! If someone gives you a present you don’t like, you smile and say, “Thanks, how thoughtful,” and then stash it in the back of your closet. You don’t ask your kid to complain to the gift-giver via backchannel. It’s fine if you like to give expensive presents—and can afford to do so—but that’s not the only way to show someone that you care. Even if you don’t like knitwear, your daughter-in-law spent countless hours over the course of a half-year working on something very detailed for you, and you say yourself it was a lovely bedspread. Whether she got the yarn with the gift card you gave her or spent her own money is beside the point; you’re acting as if she re-gifted something when that clearly wasn’t the case. Your daughter-in-law’s gift was thoughtful and intricate; yours was financially generous and relatively generic. There would be no reason to compare the two if you hadn’t insisted on doing so in the first place.
You are grown adults with plenty of money; if there’s something you want for yourself, go ahead and buy it—this kind of petty scorekeeping around gift-giving is barely excusable when little children do it. Writing her a letter to express “sadness” that her own parents didn’t teach her proper etiquette would be wildly inappropriate, out of line, and an unnecessary nuclear option. And it’s a guaranteed ticket to make sure you see and hear about your grandchildren way less than you do now. You still have time to salvage this relationship—don’t die on this hill. Let it go, apologize for your churlishness, and take yourself shopping if you want a pricey gift this year
Prudence didn’t add “BITCH” to the end, but she should have.
