    I've never understood what is meant literally when people talk about sitting on someone's face.

    I used to think it was a euphemism for oral sex, but honestly I often see it used differently or even literally? Is it a fetish? Is it about the scent?

    I'm genuinely asking out of legitimate lack of clear intention.

  • People often point to the terrible things in the world as evidence we're living in "the worst timeline". What examples are there of things that suggest our timeline is actually better than it seems?

    It's no longer true as of about two years ago no, but the measurement was always a bit skewed for Western audiences and glosses over increases in specific types of crimes ( categorically ) such as homicide bombings and domestic terrorism.

    I absolutely believe that in a large city the culture you experienced was drastically different than what I experienced. I didn't grow up in a city, and yeah things were pretty different for me as a result.

    It's okay, it just means your pocket of experience and mine pool from different demographics and normative values.

    That's a terrible concept masquerading as equity. In the future I suspect we'll know better, but the double standard crap in this era is awful. There is no correct way to have racism, you either fight all of it, or not.

    This mentality of punching up / down simply leads to outcomes of acceptable / unacceptable racism and that's not the way to combat racism and inequality.

    Revisionist history tbh, we absolutely did not know better in the 90s or early aughts, certainly not where I lived. The world was different before widespread Internet access and your pocket of culture, if it really was the way you think you know and remember was certainly not universal.

    I always hated the ribbon context menu system. It ruins the way I learn watch involves where something is just as much as what it's called, kinda like remember where on a physical page something is even if you don't remember the page.

    Static, nested menus are superior.

  • What do you think the voting age should be?

    Honestly I think everything should move to 20.

    Alcohol purchase, consumption. Military conscription, draft, voluntary service Age of majority, marriageable age Voting with automatic voting registration Drug consumption including nicotine, caffeine, and cabinets Driving ( permits at a prior age with supervision )

    We know people's brains aren't really formed enough even at 18 to consider people adults, this younger age is a hold over from even younger ages and doesn't reflect reality.

    People who are not fully developed shouldn't be able to make decisions with the full weight of adulthood, to take any other position is barbaric.

    I agree, but I think all intellectual property laws should be repealed. I came to the conclusion that patent, copyright, and trademark are all varying levels of bad years ago and I think it clearly holds the human race and human progress back by limiting creative iteration.

    Again, you can't have multiple competing ideologies be correct concurrently because some are going to conflict, but if at least one matches reality then your concept ( again from a logic standpoint ) is bad.

  • I have Mushihimesama Futunari on Xbox 360 for a long time, store closed and I learned black label DLC is now going. Are there any option? I can't find physical DLC disk, maybe it never exist. I have options?

    I think about this from time to time, but most recently it's the Persona 3 remake that's got me thinking about it now. The original game was dark, gritty, and I'm really concerned that they're going to downplay that for the more colorful 'mainstream' style in Persona 5. I loved Persona 5, but 3 has my favorite aesthetic, my favorite 'feel'. I'm worried they now feel like the dark blue, and 'gun' motifs are more controversial now. I'm also highly disappointed that the extra content from FES and portable won't be in it, that feels like half the appeal of a remake for this title. I want to like it, but I probably won't.

    Maybe I like bad games, or maybe Cyberpunk 2077 was never quite as bad as people say - I'm not sure because I unironically love Forspoken and think it's one of the best games I've ever played. I did hate on the game hard at release, and a lot of it was well deserved, trying to play it on PS4 or Xbox One ( I picked it up on both ) was actually awful and unstable, I couldn't progress past the club at the beginning of the Street Kid life path so I eventually hung it up for a while. I bought it at launch, and it was a bad launch, reminded me of the launch of No Man's Sky, except visually the game was stunning, and there was a lot more substance, but it was actually broken. I ended up giving it a real try at the end of 2021 when I managed to get my hands on an Xbox Series X and it was a drastically different game. This was before the 'next gen' patch, but it had enough fixes and ran butter smooth on the Series X that I ended up getting enthralled. Y'all this game is good. I had a great build that was frustratingly nerfed hard at the next gen patch ( RIP Overwatch ) but wow the story and world is so interesting, and I feel like this is this AI revolution story just waiting to be told in the background - it's good shit. I haven't played since the next gen patch, so all that will be new to me along with Phantom Liberty so I'm looking forward to a drastically different game than I played a year and a half ago. I think CDPR finally did it, or will have did it upon release. I can't wait.
