You should start streaming some old Animal Planet shows. Grooming each other is a big part of social bonding among many different animals.

Also, the second part is because they’ve seen what you do when you’re alone and know you’re a perv.

Okay. Thank you for clearing it up.

I absolutely believe we can be happy whether on our own in some form of relationship.

But my approached topic is about our ability to hold unto long-term relationships. If we could, i believe we would choose intimacy with another person over the peacefulness of solitude.

You say it’s tiring to be around other people and that’s fine, but objectively it’s still a personal failing. If you feel attacked, it’s because you also recognize it as such.

You’re happy where you are and it’s great, but isn’t it you’re making your happiness because you wouldn’t find it otherwise?

This is the general direction of my point.

You have more fun on your own. You’ve only had shit relationships. You’ve mastered faking social interactions. Congratulations! You’re socially inept.

Or in other words, you want it, but couldn’t have it, so you gave up on it and make due with superficial feel-good.

Whatever the reasons we might lie to ourselves with, the inability to form meaningful connections remains. Just don’t mistake giving up on it for the option not existing at all.

That’s an attempt to positively spin our growing incapability of creating and maintaining an intimate long-term relationship.

Wanting to be single sounds better than socially incompetent.

Ck3 with the plague mechanics does this. The base game has some default settings that absolutely wrecks everything once plagues get going and only having the DLC can change those settings.

Also, the explorer indexer at the very least takes note of what files it has stored.

As I recall it, energy is motion.

Well, if you think about it, they might want to do a Daggerfall with thousands of nondescript villages and dungeons, powered by AI.

A thread of the problem is likely the publisher/developer conflict of interest. When the two can’t come to an agreement, the end result usually fails horribly in both aspects.

Neat stuff.

That part’s wild to me, when people are like “This villain in your story seems to have said and done bad things? So that means you agree with them, yes?” No! Of course not! It’s the literal villain in the story, man!

But there is no utilitarian point of art. It exists to express ideas and to tell truth. I think maybe a lot of people get upset because from their point of view, they are paying money, and they have this relationship where it’s like “If it’s not giving me what I wanted out of this transaction, then it’s bad.”

Then there’s the paladin who has you smitten just by standing there.

Playing Copper and Bronzers.

Yep.

Every time you shower or take a bath, your water betrays you for a quick hookup. Water only has loyalty to water.

That’s not a what if, it’s a when. Might not happen suddenly, but our air quality and ability to breathe it is going down fast the longer pollution reigns supreme. Air becoming a luxury is a real threat that money owners happily ignore.

With the human body being in most part water, it’s like you’re giving it reins over you freely.

Stargate has an episode like that. With sort of zombies. It’s great! You should watch it.

Stargate Atlantis also has a similar one. With fog instead.

Depends. Does the space curve during time travel?

Anti rail gun protection for all them tiny pebbles out there travelling at pre-warp speed?
