You can read in dreams, but usually the text changes if you look away and look back. That’s the “dream check” most teach when explaining lucid dreaming.

There’s exceptions to this. Text that is strongly associated with images may stay static, e.g. a brand logo, but I find it’s incredibly hard for documents and books to retain their information.

Gary Fucking Gygax said that the DM sometimes rolls dice because it sounds good.

Have fun with your games above all else, rules are a cage, D&D blows chunks why won’t anyone play fucking Traveller

I’m having some fun playing it, but mostly in customizing my ship and setting up automated production via the outpost system.

The RPG elements feel uninspired and the writing pales in comparison to, say, Baldur’s Gate 3, but I feel Larian set a new standard of greatness with their work on the characters and writing there. Starfield feels flat by comparison.

Idk how far you are into the game, but “Skyrim in space” is a shockingly apt reduction of the story.

It’s okay, they never have anything interesting or useful to say anyway. They are cardboard cutouts of tropes as deep as the petri dish used to grow their faces.

But it is funny to see three of them walk uncomfortably close to one another in tight, uniform formation before turning simultaneously to look at me and utter forth a generic attempt at local color.

The ADL absolutely needs to do better in order to accomplish it’s admittedly daunting mission.

Elon Musk allows actual Nazis on Twitter.

Look buddy, I made it very clear the sensible people don’t reply, they just move on. We’re clearly not in that group! 🤣

But I wanna see fewer posts about China politics good or China politics bad and more posts about Chinese food good, here’s how to make some.

I think there absolutely is a contingent of Communists, especially new “converts” who get over zealous about their newfound ideology and veer into some flippant and ignorant hyperbole.

And I think there absolutely are groups of left-leaning folks who are still well and deep in the Red Scare culture.

Part of the issue is that many more… reasonable (for a lack of a better word) people see hyperbole and inanity and just close the post or not respond and the comments and posts tend to come from more passionate folks from the different camps of thought.

Yeah, lemmy is a bit tricky for me to learn how to use versus Reddit, I’m still curating my feed as well. But it sucks to go online to look at and talk about things you like and having to confront some bullshit. I hope folks figure out a solution that is simple and works well for most.

Hey, I’m gonna be real honest, this simple sentence really helped explain part of the whole Lemmy federated instances thing to me.

Yeah, I bet that’s the case. I think folks are hollering at the moon because I literally can’t see the posts they’re complaining about!

I wonder if this is why I’ll see a post has a larger comment count than the comments I can read, too.

Ahh, someone willfully misconstruing my point and twisting it into something vulgar, it’s like I never left Reddit at all!

And you didn’t make an utterly inane, non-funny “meme” post bragging about your success in blocking feeds you didn’t want to see!

Thank you for your service.

I see far FAR more people complaining about tankies and posts talking shit about tankies than I ever see posts or comments by tankies.

It’s honestly tiresome.

When you’re the only one who follows a set of traditions and rituals in an area, it does indeed feel quite strange. Holidays are lonely, even shopping for goods can feel alienating. And the casual antisemitism… its often small things, but you often hear odd comments or off color jokes, the kind of things people casually say because they are certain they aren’t offending anyone in earshot. I’m not sure I’d ever move just to be closer to more Jews, but it is very comforting to know you have instant community in an area. I remember coming back to the East Coast USA from the Southwest and nearly breaking down seeing mass produced hamantaschen in a bakery (even if my homemade ones are way better).

My sympathies go out to this lonely man and I hope he finds a way to feel connected to others in that unique way tradition and community evokes. Though the article makes it sound like he’s built a life he’s happy with and that must be very rewarding in its own way.

Can’t wait! It feels like it’s been longer than ten years since there was an Armored Core game.

Now, From Software has many more fans and eyes watching their games, I’m just hoping they love playing Armored Core as much as I do.

Finally!! A new Armored Core game.

I cannot put into words how exciting this is, can’t wait to get my hands on it tomorrow night. It’s cool to see so many new people interested in Armored Core, too. I hope they stick around and come to enjoy this game as much as I have the previous ones.
