Shitposter while I tend to two babies. Maybe when I have my life back, I’ll help us get a few more niche communities back?

  • There is enough social psychology​ research to suggest that most of the time people are more efficient alone than in a group, although some tasks take more than one person. Process gain vs process loss, social loafing, groupthink, etc., if you put four people on a team you might get 200%, not 400% return, or worse.

    Interesting, for complex tasks that require thought, the most efficient grouping tends to involve groups with diverse backgrounds and a work culture that values disagreement… which is basically the opposite of what’s going on in American government right now, lol.


  • Funny enough there’s a whole section of social psychology dedicated to this type of causal attribution. See also: “it was lag!!”

    Long story short: personal, stable factors we like it it’s a success, dislike in failure; situational, unstable factors we like it it’s a failure, dislike in success. Self-serving and group serving biases, basically.

    Agree, and glad at least YYH got love after that live action reboot hit. Also I no longer hide my cheesy love of that fucking YYH theme song.

    Added fun fact, the manga artist creator of YYH married the artist of Sailor Moon, who even helped him a little with Hunter x Hunter. Lol
