My current wallpaper is Hornet from Hollow Knight, but it cycles between around 150 pictures

My favorite is this fanart of Phos from Land of the Lustrous

I managed to fat finger wrong reply to two different comments in this thread, fml

Wish I could actually delete these comments so there wasn't a permanent reminder of my incompetence

There's no actual reason to cast doubt on that makeup except for whatever prejudices you have against that community

Not trusting the administrators is not an actual reason to doubt what the administrators say?

First off, not my party. I don't know how many more ways there are to say the phrase "voting for someone is not a show of support for them and all of their views."

You don't like the trolley problem because it's a very good analogy for the present situation. There were exactly two options, and if you chose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

I also want to "derail the trolley." I want a third party to win. But on the first Tuesday of November, it's too late to build any new tracks. It's too late to make a third party viable. If you know that third party isn't going to win, then continuing to try to build that third track even as the trolley careens past the fork is tacit approval of whatever track it went down. Reach over and pull the damn lever, then get back to building the track.

The analogy kind of breaks down when you consider that Donald Trump plans on making it literally impossible for Democrats to win, let alone third parties. Again, unless you plan on doing something incredibly based very soon, you can kiss your third track goodbye. Trump owns the White House, Congress, and the Supreme Court. You think he's gonna let Stein take the W in 2028?

For the record, I don't find any death acceptable. That's why I tried to mitigate it as much as possible. You apparently do find more death acceptable, or else you would have voted

You saw the trolley careening towards the 5 people, and instead of pulling the lever to make it hit the 1, you said "I don't think anyone should be run over by trolleys." Like yeah, I agree, but that trolley is still gonna run a bunch of people over, so maybe pull the lever anyway

It is like you're a slave, in that you're literally a slave

But We The People collectively believe that slavery is fine. Even put it in our constitution

I'm curious what that has to do with kowtowing to the US government. I think I provided a pretty good example of proof that Reddit doesn't moderate based on what their government says is true

"People play Dragon Age to escape politics" lmao good one

That is not the same as telling someone they aren't trans. He's expressing doubt about the veracity of the results of the poll, not about any particular user(s)

(Enter RADISHN'T, MOTHMAN MISATO, BOIMG FROG and CATS'N RAINCOATS, stage left. They are having a HEATED DISCUSSION.)

RADISHN'T: Prithee, which one of you had planned to tell

Of diff'rent flavours gained by simple act

Of brewing tea with water hot, not cold?

MOTHMAN: Egad! you poured the water cold? Wherefore?!

FROG: An answer from you, Radish, I must beg.

RADISHN'T: Indeed I did, dear friends - why does this shock?

Without the guide of others I assumed

That heat was merely added for the sake

Of expediting this solution's brewing!

Half a decade I have spent, or more,

Not questioning this worldview I had made.

In fact, I am myself a bit surprised

That you might think that I, your dearest friend,

Might have a patience of sufficient stock

To wait until a pot of water boils.

FROG: Three minutes overtaxes patience so?

The microwave will beep when it is done!

CATS'N: My friend, this answer vexes me the more!

Can it be true that thou dost boil by nuke?!

FROG: Are you in turn, my friend, so shocked to know

That I have not the patience, like our Root,

To boil upon the stove our favour'd drink?

CATS'N: It takes less than a minute!

FROG: On what plate?

Perhaps your dinner cooks atop the sun?

CATS'N: How long can take your stove to fill the task

Of boiling but a single cup alone?

FROG: In minutes?

CATS'N: Yes!

FROG: I counted seven, once.

CATS'N: Perhaps you ought to have your timepiece checked!

If on a middle heat you place the cup

You soon will have the scalding drink you crave.

Two minutes, in a mug upon the plate

Or even less, if you should have a pot.

FROG: You cause me tears - is this how thou dost live?

You place upon the iron stove a mug?

A mug, ceramic, filled with water cold?

How do these flames, though medium in height,

Not shatter like a glass this fragile thing?

Surely, then, your kitchen is bewitched

With magicks far beyond the mortal ken!

(The FOUR realise they have wandered into the THRONE ROOM. The ROYAL COURT watches with fascination.)

KING: Ev'ry single person in this group

must be a fucking lunatic, it seems.
