with the game awards coming up i wanna remind everyone that the message Clair Obscur sends at the end is that women can not be trusted to make decisions and that it is the duty of the men in their lives to take their agency away for their own good

I dont know if this counts as “woke” but I think that the vast majority of conservative orgs including the RNC should be legally dissolved and their leadership jailed.
Similarly I think most prior Republican voters should be disenfranchised.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

“Why cant they find better candidates” I mean not excusing the Democrats here but my experience is that the personality profile of folks who want to be in charge of things largely maps to wildly toxic narcissism!

I do not always know what to do when I followed someone for Seemingly Pretty Good Takes and Similar Interests then it turns out they are wildly and intensely unhinged about something seemingly incongruous that goes real vile real quick

Only one of these 2 candidates had to win against an opposition supported by their own party. Only one is call themselves an “anti-Mamdani” democrat on their fucking campaign website.
i want to repeat this: mamdani and spanberger have run similar campaigns tailored to their respective electorates and it is maddening to watch political journalists attempt to create some broad contrast where none exist
the other thing about this is that there is no reason to pit these candidates against each other? each are good fits for their respective electorates and each shows the value of vigorous campaigns focused on the stated material problems of voters.

The CIA spook literally said Mamdani “doesnt belong in her party” like 3 days ago so maybe get your people on fucking message if you wanna be in coalition. He had to run against another Democrat after winning the primary for fucks sake!!
Came here to say this, but Jamelle Bouie has this covered. 👇
When the Democratic tent includes candidates like Spanberger and Mamdani, there is no crisis, or fight, for the party. IT’S A COALITION, NOT A POINT ESTIMATE.

This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism.
The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.

See, the trick is that "the GM exists for the players' amusement, whose job is to ruin their plans for fun" and "the GM rules like a king, and the players exist to be their playthings" is that these SEEM like opposite maladaptive approaches to play, but they both result in the GM doing all the work.

This feels like the natural evolution of a ton of social issue arguments from Christian Nationalists that boil down to “the existence of non-Christians violates my religious freedom”
Exxon says it can't reveal how much pollution it makes because doing so would force it to “serve as a mouthpiece for ideas with which it disagrees.”
Which is just the "homework is against my religion" excuse, if the student saying it killed 8 million people a year.

Im actually frustrated at the replies to this in that theres people joking about broken it is in ways that miss how this reflects the nature of LLMs not doing what people say they do. Its not “making a game,” even a bad one, its making a series of images vaguely reflecting what a game looks like.

I think people talk shit on “Gen Z” wayyy to much on the prude discourse but anyone asserting any position on the “necessity” of sex/nudity/intimacy to the plot of anything is full of shit.

Angel hair, gross-textured bad excuse for spaghetti (which is also bad.) Short textured noodles are usually the best. Long noodles belong in broth and nowhere else.

Honestly I just feel like Ive been “strong” for too long and spent too much time and energy “improving” to whatever standard with no actual reward. I need a month or two of being dogshit. Of seeking and getting what I want, selfishly, and being petulant and weak when I cant.
