This is just regular Roderic, he takes things to peak seriousness and is allergic to not standing his ground on shit he thinks are fundamental matters of principle and theory.

Pretty much all his other recent posts are about the Palestinian genocide, he just thinks for whatever various reasons that this kind of thinking is opportunism and harmful rather than helpful, and because he is the way he is he feels he has to stand his ground on that point of theory.

He does this whenever he thinks hes got a hit tweet.

He once posted all day for like a full week about how he epic owned the nordics about food cause he posted "rotten reindeer cock" over and over, it used to be his bio like "destroyer of subhuman nordic cuisine" or something like that.

Theres several bits in the midsection that are just stretches of really fast crosspicking that have gotten the nickname of "death picking" from fans who tried to learn it.

Alright well my knee hurts too from working out yesterday so I guess it would be best to skip the walk too, I guess I'll just drop dead.

Frustrating now to have to stop practicing because my wrists and hands are hurting, like I keep trying to think like "Oh well doing it this way wont hurt then surely?" but nope, just gotta go find something else to do today, maybe go for a walk instead and then go for it tomorrow again.

Better to build good habits of keeping my wrists and hands healthy though, had some points during the quarantine where I guess being stuck on the computer all day inside combined with stress made my hands hurt too badly to even type, literally missed tests cause I physically couldnt type all of a sudden.

No, in a practical sense there is nothing that is passive and submissive enough that it will be acceptable for those that view from the river to the sea as too provocative and too aggressive.

Centrists who hum and haw about this are disingenous, they oppose the sentiment itself, they feel that the idea of Palestinians in equal power to Israelis is threatening and would prefer a complete fantasy vision of a peaceful relationship of submission by the Palestinians to the Israelis.

If you were to go digging through the elephants foot that is this guys tweet history you'd be guaranteed to find tweets for each of these points where he argues that actually all of that was good and based.

Theres a prog rock guitarist whos famous for having absurd picking skills and crosspicking in particular and its really funny to phrase it as him just playing scary bluegrass.

Its really funny to me how fucking hard some bluegrass and country picking techniques are, I mean it only surprises me cause of how disrespected those genres are to start with but its still funny how you have this absurdly hard crosspicking stuff sitting here in a corner doing its own thing away from shredding stuff.

Some of these just have baffling issues, I understand that you probably have separate animators specializing in first vs third person animation, but that's no excuse for a gun literally having different mechanical operations in first vs third.

Like the sniper rifle, in first person the weird top cover slides back on its own, then forward on its own, with no real rhyme or reason. But in third person it slides forward into the groove that the model specifically has to justify that happening, and then the operator slides the cover back on their own, which makes sense if it is spring loaded to slide forward.

Like this just seems like a fundamental issue of direction and coordination, there is no cohesive vision that the modeler and separate animators appear to be working from, and its bizarre that the third person animation has better care and attention put to it given that you arent looking directly at the gun like in first person. Embarrassing, just kind of a brown m&m issue for the whole quality of the game IMO.

Edit: Lmao just hit the part of the video where he literally makes this observation.

The face bits are apparently some of the softest and most tender bits, which I guess is why they make "head cheese" out of it, just usually isnt served still attached to the head.

Someone on twitter posted a take like "the vile norwegian feasts on rotten fish and boiled sheeps head" and the latter is like literally a national dish of Khazakhstan too.

And I am expressing my eternal annoyance that people try to own northern european and anglo cuisine by pretending that they are above slop and filthy animal bits when basically every cuisine devours slop and animal offal. We're all the same basic breed of filthy hogs.
