Ceres [she/her]

battlestar galactica but that one is a bit contentious. I think its the best part of the show though

the ‘Evangelion Finally’ album has some danceable songs, just gotta mix Komm Susser Todd into that

also why I frequent healing crystal stores because the good ones have some cool looking or geologically interesting rocks, then it’s 50/50 if it’s a reasonable price or a $200 spray painted quartz crystal lol. although the real shame is when all the rocks are rounded and polished because that gets rid of half the mineralogy

probably can’t unless they changed it recently. paints are very limited things you gotta buy separately (and usually only 1 or 2 options of bland colours). in-game paint shops are one of those mysteriously missing mmo things that have been promised for way too many years.

star citizen has been developed like a business model way more than a game for a while now, but if you do buy it then let me know cause I need someone to help me fit golf-carts into my ship and bring them to obscure locations to drive and crash

My favourite ice giant lore is the exotic forms of ice that probably exist in their atmospheres, like Ice XI which is ferroelectric

I also like absurd or gnarly

it also turned into my best run yet, at least till I died to my own Burgeoning.

plus I had found a chain mail Rifle Turret Disguise and a carbide two hander, so it was funny to sweep through red rock as a turret sprite one shotting everything haha

thinkin about my favourite procedural-gen recipe book i started with in Caves of Qud, titled:

Broiling Wretched Fare

and it actually had some decent recipes lol

That’s a good summary ill have to use it

I think I just couldn’t tell if you were suggesting ‘buying or not buying harmful products doesn’t make a difference’ to mean supporting carnist stuff is fine, cause it felt like an odd inclusion but I getcha now.

But yeah I was, in response, arguing the importance of still considering consumption habits in your veganism, which comes from my mechanistic worldview thinking that everything has an affect on something, so what should instead be the limiting factor for these decisions is stuff like privilege (instead of util priorities), which ends up at the same stance as you (I think). Anxiety over my political alienation making me min-max my veganism lol.

I mostly agree but think its strange to dismiss the individual part of it. Although a social movement is the goal being worked towards, I feel its a bit harmful to state the goal as ‘global vegan movement’ instead of ‘stop exploiting animals’ because that difference provides wiggle room to do harmful things if you don’t expect it to affect the odds of the movement succeeding, which gets yourself thinking in unhelpful utilitarian terms. Easier to get intersectional-understanding benefits of connecting veganism to other issues, and be a better voice for that movement, when you’re an abolitionist vegan who doesn’t care if what you’re doing might not be worthwhile according to an arbitrary metric.

The movement is of course the vitally necessary action to end the industry, but I’m also sick of carnist leftist friends excusing individual carnist actions because of it ‘not really changing things’, which I think is driving my thoughts here.

Ooh the wiki page also mentions a July 2012 solar storm that was Carrington level but just missed hitting the Earth in orbit. Another good contender for this thread.

im surprised you don’t want 1 month with 2 days (the days are extremely long)

Something about Slug A made it my favourite/most consistent. I think its the crew immune to mind control which I value highly, and why I’m not interested in Lanius B. Flak is op in vanilla though so I get why its top of tier lists haha.

100% of the time I type ‘big’ it suggests ‘Boobs’ for the next word help

new account and planning to start posting more, also helping to fill out the list of planet named users because that would be neat i think. already have mercury venus mars and pluto so we’re gettin there
