These guys had a cave?!?

Interesting misuse of the term “objective”. Also, lots of conclusions being leapt to between the misused ellipses. Fun!

Yep. Some people don’t seem to understand that a denouement is more than the last 5 minutes of a story.

Or you could just accept that not everyone agrees with your declarations no matter how firmly you state them.

Cool. So I have TWO pieces of media that I can think you’re an idiot about.

How the fuck do you think the wealthy hold onto their power? AUTHORITY. It’s not because they continue to make the best product or what the fuck ever. The market gets manipulated all the fucking time, it doesn’t improve dick. Look the fuck around you. God, this is infuriating. Capitalism, by the fact of encouraging…

I don’t know what about my response read “Please explain the difference between socialism in theory and in practice”. I’m literate. If I wasn’t already aware of the difference I could very easily read the various disparate explanations of the theory/practice dichotomy found in books or graduate theses.

Well, for starters *I* didn’t say shit.

Please clarify. Are you saying that somehow expressions of empathy are being used as legally relevant statements now more than they have in prior decades or something? Is the current sociopolitical/cultural environment somehow more abusive to self-expression in the context of legal matters? I don’t understand what…

Again, I just don’t agree with the declaration “it produces better results”. You haven’t defined “stronger economies” or “higher QoL”. And to be clear again, don’t bother. Because I will very likely not agree with your definitions. Not least because the “obvious” downsides you mention will likely be more important to…

I think that’s entirely fair. But I also think that it’s fair to cop to it when you’ve been called on it. As opposed to immediately going to the “I push boundaries” defense.

I don’t know if this was the case or not but it could have just been a JK Simmons as Ketheric Thorm situation. Cast a big name voice that you can’t afford to keep around longer and/or doesn’t have time for more.

1. I teach Communication. I know about the flexibility of language. I was even talking about it to my class last week!

I just want to interject here because I find this shit tiresome. Not enjoying D-list fratbro bullshit “comedy” doesn’t come with a membership card to the fucking Hannah Gadsby Club. Personally I can take or leave Gadsby. I prefer laughter to clapter, which is unfortunately a lot of what she gets. But I’ll take…

So no, then? You don’t have anything to say about it? I mean other than the trite “it’s jokes, bro”.

Oh cool! You interpreted that for me! I notice you have fuck-all to say about the “faggots” comment.

And once again you’re missing the point. Get as deep into the semantics woods as you want, I’m objecting to your ridiculous “hope” that a modded BG3 will somehow be a solution to the imagined “problem” of whatever WotC comes up with. I’m sorry, this is just weird D&D fanboi bullshit leftover feels from the OGL fiasco…

Silly me. I thought “receipts” meant actual data and not just confident declarations.

I’ve got news for you. It isn’t just Millennials and younger scoffing at this company loyalty nonsense. They are certainly *more* likely to do so but making any of this a generational statement ignores everyone in their 40s and 50s who hears the word “retirement” and laughs until they puke.

If you can provide specific real-world ties between capitalism and quality of life please do. I mean, you’re the one asking for receipts on that shit. So hey, you first.
