@CantEverDie [talking to a rightwinger] heyyy buddy i cant help but notice the rate at which you unpromptedly insert your views on the age of consent into casual conversation is pretty high
[the rightwinger, a glint in his eye] you know what else is pretty high

nazis never waste an opportunity to admit they’re pedophiles too
James Fishback@j_fishback
GDP, like age, is just a number. GDP in Florida is up 85% in 10 years. Is anyone 85% better off? Of course not. As Governor, I will never worship GDP, and instead focus on what matters: can you and your family afford life.

@OGNMeanGerman @maumesart and if youre asking me, thats a lot more interesting of a connotation for a type to have than ''is just one of the flavors like that these critters come in, like bug or water''
though, again, i see the merit, especially for scalability
English
@Unsplarfable @maumesart They make these types hard to acquire anyway. They have low encounter rates or are off the beaten path in many games. Some games do this better than others. In BW unless you go to the optional Mistralton Cave, you're not running into a single wild Dragon until Dragonspiral.
English
I lowkey love the idea of some types being rare like this, even more when they didn’t had several weaknesses like they do today.
Pokemon Nostalgia@pokemon_nost
Fun fact: these were the only Dragon and Ghost-type Pokémon in Gen 1 & 2
English
@OGNMeanGerman @maumesart different preference, then
dont get me wrong, i see the benefit
personally though, i adore the feeling of having different types at different rarities
like a dragon or a ghost become a bit more special when youre not already used to seeing them in every third patch of grass
English
@Unsplarfable @maumesart I'm not a fan of whole types being rare and unique. The same can be accomplished with certain Pokemon. Dragonite or Gengar don't become lame because Flygon or Banette are in the game. They're powerful and interesting because of their designs and stats.
English
@EPeen1273352 @maumesart were probably talking abt different times
when i say early steel i mean like gen 2 or 3
where, yeah, there were strong steel types for sure - but for every skarmory youd have a mawile or an aron
like even scizor didnt become a menace until steel had a priority move added
English
@OGNMeanGerman @maumesart yeah, same as dragon
my point is it wouldve been interesting to see them take it in a 'rare type' direction similar to dragon/ghost in the early days, where its great defensive profile can be managed by keeping it a select few guys
wouldve had a bit more of an identity yknow
English
@Unsplarfable @maumesart Steel has always been too good defensively and fucks over the weaker types. Poison and Psychic if anything should be strong against Steel. Psychics are known to bend steel easily, and strong acids corrode steel well. There should at least be a Freeze Dry variant for Poison.
English
@RealZego my complaint abt mewgenics is that you can feel that its progression was built around a very particular idea of what pace & order you do things in - but imo the game does a bit too little to indicate or incentivise you actually do them in that order, leading to friction like this
English
he says after I've murdered Throbbing King like a dozen times now. Nobody gives a fuck about that ballsack sitter
English
@bhaktisingh1875 @secretsandlaws @gnork please tell me the difference between a US president gloating abt the death of a political opponent and 'the left' not sinking to the level of politicizing a pretty sad murder case against the familys explicit wishes
English
@secretsandlaws The left: “I can’t believe Trump posted that about Mueller.”
Also the left: refusing to stand for Iryna Zarutska’s mother, sobbing over her daughter who was brutally murdered
huh lol
English
I’ll never understand why we made our worst human being the President of the United States.
Rapid Response 47@RapidResponse47
English
@secretsandlaws Well, he is a terrible human being but a decent politician when running against Democrats because they are bad at governing. Trump is also bad at governing, and the Dems will win and then lose because they are bad at governing.
English
@maumesart They definitely gave up on the idea of types corresponding to typical JRPG progression tropes, which is a bit sad. Dragon SHOULD be something special feeling; think the last time it had that feeling was Gen 4.
English
advent children is formative to me, its where my fixation with weapons started. something about cloud dual weilding, swapping, and fusing 7 gigantic swords just unlocked something in my brain.

@AngelaLovesNY [waiter] hey so have you guys decided yet or do‐-
[my based son teutonicus maximus] habbymeal
English
"My son Saxon (who I've seen three times) is so based he wants his crusts cut off in LA and the wait staff is like 'brooo!'.
He also unironically orders Bologna slices and slaps them across my cheeks. Lol Bro so based,dawg.
He's also 20.
English
@ChikoritaCheez the games battles are, and i say this with love, two sides just sitting there, taking turns slapping each other in the face
you wanna adapt that into a fight scene thats fun to look at, fuck yeah mfs be using cut to slice attacks in half and shots bouncing off of a light screen
English
The anime has this habit of treating the Screen moved and any defense buffing moves like Harden or Iron Defense like they’re different variations of Protect
English
@godgunsgpus @thepondering_ people dont even expect you to hold the office of the president to any type of standards anymore they just look at you like this
English
@thepondering_ Yeah he’s also Donald Trump. Do you really have high standards for this guy?
English
Reminder: no Democratic president or elected Democrat openly celebrated Kirk’s death
Trump isn’t a random Republican, he’s the president of the United States, and should be held to a much higher standard than the no name lefties MAGA hates so much
Harry Sisson@harryjsisson
I expect every Republican who was outraged at people for celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death to immediately condemn Trump for saying “I’m glad he’s dead” about Robert Mueller. This is disgusting.
English
@freddew0w @TTBN_GAMING if you wanna compare reactions
on one side you had randos on the internet, some of whom had some pretty bad-taste takes
on the other you had coordinated doxxing-campaigns and literal retaliatory honor-killings
English
@TTBN_GAMING The left were celebrating when Kirk got assassinated and you are now gonna lecture people about it? The dishonesty is disgusting.
English
I do remember what you did about Charlie Kirk; you created a list of people to get fired and made a video about it. So I guess people should be calling for you to be banned off Twitch then

Asmongold on Trump's reaction to Robert Mueller's death "That's my president.. Rest in pi$$ bitch you won't be missed.. He used his position to try and push a political agenda” “This is the way you should treat your enemies, I don't believe in any of that love your enemies BS.. Remember what they did to Charlie Kirk?"
