I wouldn’t call it that. In the end, you aren’t responsible for what you like or dislike. And once you find someones “ick” that you can’t deal with, it’s hard to get over it. I have a bunch of those - racism, unwilingness to learn, regular smoking. Theirs was just “man crying”. Also, there is crying and then there is holding in emotions and exploding. Sadly, I’m guilty of the latter. I don’t really blame them, rather I feel disappointed more than anything.

Yeah, but that’d be living a lie and hiding your emotions. Which is less healthy than being single. Meeting someone that likes you is something that can be done conciously rather easily with the right steps - but it does require a strong will, a lot of human interaction and a bunch of time. It also requires investing in yourself - living healthy, happy and mindful.

I lost a partner doing that. Like flipping a switch, any interest in me was gone. Was struggling with depression, we knew eachother for a very long time, even dated in the past. Oh well.

Well, a psychiatrist or a therapist isn’t there to be combative. They are there to make you feel better. If you believe the medication won’t work and you don’t do anything with it, you actually won’t see any difference - even if it actually helps you, you will think “I just had a better day, it’s all”. SSRIs sadly aren’t magic happy pills, but they do help if you let them, provided you don’t have treatment resistant depression (which could also mean you have something else, for which SSRIs aren’t the full solution, at least that was the case for me).

Not a doctor, just an idiot that went through all of it and trying to cope with ADHD. Medicated of course.

Why?

Garry himself has that in gmod. There is an achievement that’s “played with Garry”.

The only thing is that archons aren’t squishy, they have a huge shield and basically no hp. So their entire gimmick is they regenerate health. Zealot, the “tanking” unit in the toss army has 100/50 hp/shields, and it’s cheap. For archon it’s 10/350, but expensive. They can also be further reinforced with the shield battery, which will regenerate their shields like crazy. For comparison, the huge flying ships that got owned in the “toilet” were battlecruisers - 550/0 hp/shields.

What makes them squishy against terran is the introduction of the ghost - which has a spell that does a shitload of shield damage, after which the archon is one fart away from death.

Edit: also the thing that cast the black hole - the mothership - is 250/250 hp/shields.

Not really interesting. Gaming is often stressful and requires more though / action being put into it. Also there is the matter of skill - it’s way more fun to see someone completely anihilate the other team, than to go out and get killed yourself. You can also go through a story based game without having to actually play, and you get most of the experience. You also need to count in people watching other people’s guides, especially for strategy games. For other hobbies it’s often about actually doing something and feeling the rush, or by occupying the hands and chilling out. You don’t get the rush of driving a car by watching someone else do it. You don’t get your hands occupied by seeing someone knit. Also, gaming provides instant feedback / dopamine. Watching it does that with even less effort.

Mine does that too! I can blow raspberries on his tummy. Not doing that tho :D

Naaah. I made like 40 longtime steam friends because of playing on the same gmod server. Was lucky to find a server that had the most insane creators on it. You went onto any other server, they used what we made on that one. Drunk Combine, tanks, jets (including working VTOL), we had artillery that worked the same way it did in World of Tanks. 95% of the players there were insane at Expression 2 - which was a scripting / programming language that let you interact with the physics of the game in awesome ways.

I put the best 750hrs of my life into that server. It was called “Unsmart’s” after the dude that hosted it. Closed down after a few years when the people moved onto other games. There was a shortlived revival, but it was more of a “reunion” than anything else. Still have everyone as friends and could probably get them together by pinging the group if I wanted to.

Until Netanyahu starts pushing the issue and visiting other countries one after the other to show ICC as toothless.

They’ll probably start with a sure thing and then go through less hostile countries, till they go to one that said it will honor the warrant. And with more countries “behind”, acting on the warrant will seem “irrational”. It’s a bluff, but one that is very likely to work to “normalize” the political situation after the genocide.

Except you can buy season passes after they are released and no more dlc are planned.

Season pass means you get all the dlc / expansions for a discounted price since you are buying “in bulk”. So it is about as “buying it normally” as it gets. The difference Steam introduces now is that they need to state what will be in the pass and when it can be expected.

Source? Show me the evidence and metastudy

You can simplify every series that way…

Rage bait try hardrr

Because there have been motor vehicles in Warcraft since forever.

There is no case to sue them. It’s the management responsibility, not the workers to assign work. They don’t need to go out seeking it.

You say that straight people aren’t bullied for being straight, and yet the straight tag is in quotation marks and costs 9999 instead of 75. Which is bullying compared to other tags.

I myself am bi. I would never “wear” a badge saying that. But I understand people that would want to. I also understand people who would want to wear a straight badge. And saying that the only reason to wear one is to be reactionary to gay pride and to “be a counter movement” feels like gatekeeping people away from their sexual identity. I don’t want “straight” to be “normal” and “gay” to be “abnormal”. Assumptions ruin this world and lead to stereotypes.

It’s not someone who is learning, because “how to avoid race conditions” is like java concurrency 101. The entire thing is made to prevent that shit from happening. And it is incredibly easy to setup a “happens before” relationship.
