Surdon, to lemmyshitpost in It's dangerous to go alone. Take this.

This is something I’ve thought about for a long while. As a socially awkward kid, I read the stories of King Arthur. One of the stories about one of his knights (can’t remember which) the knight is given an enchanted item that charms everyone he speaks to and makes them like him. This immediately captured my fascination as a socially inept kid, but the more I thought about it, it would be living hell.

You would never EVER believe anyone genuinely enjoyed your company again, constantly wondering if it was the enchantment. Even if you removed the item and found someone who liked you natrually without it, normal appreciation or regard would NEVER come close to the enchanted one, and it would now FEEL like they disliked you. It would poison your entire life

I mean, we need scale on the luck too. What is a normal amount of luck. Is +100 luck 200% your normal luck? If so that might kind of suck. If it’s normally ranked out of 10, +100 is worldbreaking shit

Surdon, to lemmyshitpost in You know tipping has gotten out of control when your son says we have to tip Santa with money.

Santa has always worked on tips, that’s what the cookies and milk are for

Surdon, to asklemmy in What game do you play to just chill?

Yeah I haven’t tried the mods either and I kinda suck at the game but I’ve always felt like it has a low cost to entry, which is why it feels chill to me. A lot of death anxiety in games is due to time investment and, frankly, like BOTW, fear of long loading screens more than any in game punishment.

Ftl has such a satisfying and similar gameplay loop and allows so much pausing that it doesn’t really feel stressful for me. I still hate dying and do it a lot in the game, but I can play ftl with a sort of soft mental focus that many other games don’t allow me to do

Surdon, (edited ) to asklemmy in What game do you play to just chill?

FTL, Stardew valley, No mans sky, Minecraft, Old rpgs like Chrono Trigger

Surdon, to science_memes in What does a PhD mean?

You only THINK we don’t know

Surdon, to movies in Henry Cavill's Highlander reboot is moving forward with John Wick director at the helm

I think that’s the real problem, they often shove tragic, supposedly heavy backstories on us with no time devoted to actually developing it and giving them weight- we are TOLD to care, instead of given actual reason to. If the movie can’t invest in their backstory, why should I?

Weird enemy but good Dr Who episode

Surdon, to comicstrips in "Just Season It" by Mr.Lovenstein

Honestly fresh veggies sautéed right are better than any hamburger, and I love to eat meats

Surdon, to piracy in Disney is gouging customers with a near doubling of subscription costs.

We aren’t. That’s what we said- the value proposition isn’t there

Surdon, to piracy in Disney is gouging customers with a near doubling of subscription costs.

Maybe the question should be why the service was only just worth it at 75% down then
