Being vegan is a moral base line.
People without empathy shouldn’t have the right to lead people (politics, work, …).
There should be an upper limit to personal wealth.
Russia should be denuclearised and split up.
- No one should be allowed to own a second home until everyone has one.
- Static typing sucks.
Rather than banning that just tax the shit out of people who have multiple homes
Can we share the first hill?
Not shower every day depends very much on the situation.
In summer there are certain coworkers who most fuckingly definitely should shower every day unless I’m allowed more wfh.
I think “shower before you start stinking” is a decent rule to live by
And we’re back to every day
Summer is a crappy season, fall is superior.
I like spring because its not exhaustingly warm, and I like being outside in rain anyway.
Winter totally trumps other seasons. It’s just so cozy.
I’m a spring bitch cuz it’s the furthest from winter
But where I live, winter is BRUTAL
I suppose its very telling what a person’s favorite season is by where they live or were raised.
Scandi, canadian ? Or worse 😐??
Im camping on your hill.
- Laptops should be thick and durable with good keyboards (like old Thinkpads)
- MacOS isn’t as bad as people here say, its still a Unix-based OS and that alone makes it superior to Windows
- Arch Linux is severely overrated
- Debian Linux is extremely underrated
- Alpine Linux is great on low end laptops
- Fedora Linux is the best distro for newcomers
- Rust belongs in the Linux kernel
- GPL > MIT/BSD
- Tiling > stacked
- AI sucks

I could easily die on Mt Washington, NH.
Definitely not dying on Everest. it’s overrated, and a bunch of people have already done that.
Han Solo shot first. Screw any of the remakes or special editions he was a pirate and was just protecting himself from an even more dangerous pirate.
Nope. Sorry but you’re just wrong. “Han shot first” implies Greedo shot second. And he most certainly did not. Han shot, Greedo died. Green fucker with finger suckers didn’t even get a shot off.
Jesus christ guys, can you mark this as a spoiler for those of us that haven’t got round to watching this yet /s
The race of a voice actor doesn’t matter
My country has 300 ethnics groups, so they tend to match character ethnic to its voice actor. But if it’s not, no one gets angry. People is simply happy when various culture is celerated.
Though, when it comes to international movie/series/games, it truly does not matter as there’s no way to 100% match voice actor race or ethnic groups. Sometimes, people that outside the groups actually do a better match for a specific character.
I disagree vehemently with one of these and I thought it might make a fun little mystery, but on second thought I’ll just state up front it’s the Monty Python one.
The movies are so overhyped and overrated at this point. But Monty Python’s Flying Circus is not, it’s fantastic.
See I agree whole heartedly with one of these and though it might be a fun little mystery I’ll just state it up front. It’s the Monty Python one.
Yeah I was with them up until they suggested Monty Python.
Soft serve is not ice cream
Most ice cream isn’t ice cream anymore. It is frozen dairy product or sometimes not even dairy, sometimes it’s just frozen dessert product.
I have a ninja creami now and can’t go back. I know it’s not perfect, but everything else just tastes like chemicals.

The race and gender of an actor don’t matter. Ask Shakespeare
RIP Apu apparently
Bart Simpson has been played by a woman his entire existence
It’s a common practice, a problem with authentic child actors is they generally change once the original actor hits puberty, so higher pitched adult voices are common.
One of the behind-the-scenes videos on a Ed Edd n Eddy disc had some funny stories of the voice actors meeting fans (e.g. Ed’s VA spotting some kid watching the show on a TV while on vacation in Jamaica and throwing in a “huh huah, thut guy is funneh…”) and Kevin’s VA had to keep doing their voice since kids didn’t believe her whenever she mentioned it.
Not only is Gacha a bad game monetization from a consumers perspective, the moment it’s implemented the game is shit, and you should be ashamed to play it.
I dont care about Genshin’s cultural impact, Fortnite’s mechanical depth or how hot the latest team fortress character is, you should always have the thought of supporting the indefensible in the back of your head while playing them and consider it a guilty pleasure. Meaning: keep your damn pulls to yourself!
And since I used to say it too: “You can absolutely play without paying money” isn’t an argument when you need to pay with time instead, doing dailies is a chore, not leisure.
Genshin’s cultural impact? I guess I am out of touch, I have no idea what it is and just now had to look up gacha lol
Genshin Impact is literally spawning so many “open world anime gacha games” trend from so many companies across the world due to its success. It’s one of the top grossing games on mobile games (note: huge chunk of top grossing games (PC and mobile) these days never gets release or popular in the West)
Some anime-style game franchise that always a single player for more than a decade suddenly releasing “open world anime gacha games” that dead in less than 2 years.

This is a one-way ticket to everyone being the dominant race behind the scenes because studios won’t hire other races.
How is that true in a way different from other industries? I do think there’s no necessity for the race of the VA to correspond with the race of the character. That might be because I don’t have a good grasp on the arguments otherwise though.
The argument I’ve heard in favor of VAs matching their characters is to avoid laundering white perspectives to minority characters, which would make sense if the VA didn’t have their livelihood on the line when asked to read from a script written by a cishet white man. I feel like having a minority do that makes no difference other than providing a cover of legitimacy for the words said.
But as a cishet white male myself, maybe I’m mischaracterizing the argument, I’d be curious. I have asked my (racial minority) wife at one point and she wasn’t sure.
It’s a given that there are insensitivities in hirings, but I struggle to imagine a way in which that would be unique to voice acting specifically.
There needs to be a mandatory parenting training course if you’re expecting a child.
Religion needs to be taken out of the government completely
In the UK we almost have this in something called NCT (National Childbirth Tr. … ust).
It’s not compulsory and most only do it for their first but you’re kinda so shit scared that most tend to do it.
The knowledge is good but getting a close network of 5 other couples having a baby within a month of each other is invaluable…for the mums, the dad’s are shit at keeping in touch typically lol

I like this in theory. But I know in practice some idiots will always manage to get their hands on the curriculum.
Me too but it’d turn into eugenics so quickly.
I was fucking baffled walking out of the hospital with my baby. No training, no proof of education, no tests. Walking out with the nurse in tow asking them "yeah are you sure i don’t need to like sign something?
