There was a good Royalist? I’m guessing you mean Rene, because it sure wasn’t Gary the Cryptofascist or Measurehead or the Racist Lorry Driver. Imo the only thing that stopped Rene from becoming someone like Dros were his relationships with Gaston and Evrart. If he had been “alone” the way Dros was then the investigation may have gone quite differently

Cuno is a wholesome person who has a misaligned view of what “wholesome” is because of the environment he grew up in and I will die on this hill

It’s ok to call yourself an egg, but calling other people eggs is like saying “I know your gender identity better than you do”.

I’d say the only time it’s ok to call someone else an egg is if it’s past tense, if the person has transitioned, and if their transition is public knowledge.

Bingo! Money is a unit of measurement, but it’s the only unit of measurement that we can buy. We can buy a kilogram of potatoes or a meter of cloth, but it would be ridiculous to just buy a kilogram or just a meter. And yet, I can promise you $120 Monday if you give me $100 today, which means I can buy a dollar.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with money, and any pre-scarcity economic system will need some kind of token or allowance to prevent overconsumption of resources :)

The lie that capitalism tells us is that the only reason anyone should ever want to use their money is to better themselves :)

Yeah I’m big in to STAB bonuses!

Simply Tap A, Brother

Better translation:

Frame 1: “So this is the Pal region! A new adventure awaits us!”

Frame 2: “Oh, she’s holding a ball and looking over here…are we going to have a battle right away?”

Frame 3: “What?”

Frame 4: “!?”

Frame 5: RATATATATATATATATAT

I’m having so much fun in Palworld, I really hope it makes Gamefreak wake the fuck up

Halfway through the linked post, when he talks about if you like twilight as a man

Aw man, I forgot about his random homophobia :(

Here’s a picture of Ronald Reagan meeting with Afghan mujahideen in the White House in 1983

I don’t think “physical force” is a necesarry component of violence. Take, for example, domestic violence. The US DOJ gives these criteria for if an action is DV or not:

Domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behavior in any relationship that is used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another intimate partner. Domestic violence can be physical, sexual, emotional, economic, psychological, or technological actions or threats of actions or other patterns of coercive behavior that influence another person within an intimate partner relationship. This includes any behaviors that intimidate, manipulate, humiliate, isolate, frighten, terrorize, coerce, threaten, blame, hurt, injure, or wound someone.

I think a more apt definition of violence would be “coercive behavior”

The funny thing is, deciding which memes are political and which memes are not political is itself a political decision

You just can’t escape it

I have no idea what this says but based on length and wall-of-text-ness, I’m willing to bet it’s the navy seal copypasta

For this logic to be consistent you would have to pronounce JPEG as “jayfeg”
