Shitting on it? It's just that "making edibles" without the active substance is... just cooking/baking.

Wrong, that'd definitely get a few looks. Although nobody's honed being offended to such an art form as the British and American.

Disagree as much as you want, that certainly still seems to be how shit works. If I'm wrong - awesome! Show me how.

Discworld is sometimes compared to Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. That's to say they're both heavily tongue-in-cheek, not "hard" scifi/fantasy. HGTTG is "hard" scifi in the same way Rincewind is Gandalf - ie not at all. They're running more on Rule of Funny, and it works pretty well. Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams were both English, of course, and have quite a bit of overlap in their humor, commentary and writing style.

Fucking amen to that. I thought Reddit was shrill with the politics.

That's because unless they get rid of the first-past-the-post system, it's 100% wasted.

Unfortunately, FPTP also keeps the existing dominant parties complacent in only having one enemy, so they don't actually have to try very hard. So changing it is unlikely to gather a lot of steam, either. "Lesser evil" sucks, but is ironically a lesser evil than just throwing away the vote entirely.

Far Cry 3 and 4 are my favorites, 5 is OK. Those are the only Ubi games I'd care to recommend. 3 is pretty old.

Did you just question asking questions about questions asking about asklemmy??

I swear to god people take it as a challenge. That's when it's not obvious soapboxing.
