I hate the usage of AI here too, but I think this is a fight we've already lost. Stupid LLM algorithms.

This is like asking "can you trust a wrench?" It's a tool. You can trust it to operate within its parameters. The problem is that most of us don't understand what those parameters are; it's a black box. So yeah, if you're gonna use it, use it for low stakes applications are prepare to exercise considerable oversight ... like a harbor freight table saw.

I think a lot of games struggle in their final act. Often it feels like cut content forces writers and developers into conclusions that are unsatisfying because they feel rushed and incomplete. So maybe you're just playing the good bits? Think of the last game you played where the ending felt truly satisfying. Doesn't help that everyone's trying to shoehorn live service microtransaction bullshit into their games.

Ah, yes I can see that for sure. I wondered if you were arguing that the whole genre was racist because it rests on the idea of "fear of the unknown" as some folks seem to be. Lovecraft himself was a shithead, but that's kind of why I enjoy stuff like Lovecraft Country so much.

I enjoy League mechanically, played a lot, but it just got to be such a net negative that I can't do it anymore. I enjoy trying my best to win and I adore that feeling of a team coming together, but the toxicity was just too much.

I feel like we're talking past each other, so I'm going to disengage with this conversation.

Natalie's videos explained trans issues to me in a way that completely changed my mind about the whole topic. I'm very grateful to her for putting out that content in a way that my brain could digest.

Shouldn't we all be nice to each other, marginalized or not?

The entirety of human civilization is deeply rooted in racism, so yeah, makes sense. What I'd like to know is what's especially bad about cosmic horror specifically as depicted in, say, The Mountains of Madness.

What does racism have to do with cosmic horror?

You can still see consequences from yelling "fire" in a crowded theater. Let's not pretend that there can be no reasonable constraints on these things.

Ps. WHERE IS THE WELL REGULATED MILITIA?

Did they just like, throw a bunch of random philosophy bullshit onto a meme? Feels like this was generated by an AI or something lol.
