Tbh I thought of it the other way around. While in the fiction it might seem like Jack is real and Tyler isn't, Tyler is real and Jack is a vector for propaganda and radicalization.

A cute wee ray of some description. Text reads "i love you so much"
Gotta get some medical business sorted out and once it is I'm gonna try get my first scuba license. I'll be swimming with the fishies!!
I think at least half of all people who leave comments on romance novel chapter uploads would drown in the rain if you told them to look up
Absolutely world-class bit on the part of the Sanders left, Yglesias center, and Trump right to pretend for over a decade straight that this was somehow a point of contention between them
every person in this is depraved, evil, needs to be put in prison for the rest of their lives and must suffer for these crimes against humanity
Oh wow I may end up posting this one a lot
Men’s outfits. The main element of the wardrobe is a loincloth, complemented by a cloak (tilmatli). These are worn by all social classes, but aristocrats, as usual, stand out with the richness of their ornaments and colors, unlike the modest peasants.
REAGAN (in the holodeck simulation where I beat Ronald Reagan to death): Who... who are you?!
ME (in cool wuxia outfit): Heheh... just call me— okay, do you seriously not see that
GEORGE H. W. BUSH (T-posing): see what
COD Games get rave reviews constantly and those games are dogwater, bad taste more like
"the video game journalists are bad at video games" joke in gaming culture bugs the shit out of me because they're not bad at video games, what they are is bad at criticism, Ultima 8 got glowing reviews from most of them and that game fucking sucks
You’d think this gentleman would be more appreciative of the taboo against slurring the cognitively impaired, all things considered.
I think this resonates with another nerd shibboleth re: sports and the not caring about them. If you play on a team you will quickly develop awareness of how people can have fun while taking a group effort somewhat seriously.
This is a real problem because taco night Carl will react to any level of "can we take this kind of seriously" akin to running this shit like the House of Lords while anyone who made the mistake of getting somewhat invested must continuously ratchet down their level of interest
Third to that: I get it, I'm neurospicy too. Gonna work with awareness of that. It's a root cause of the aforementioned problems. But in the end it's a social hobby. There's a line where your behaviours impact others and you don't get to use it as an excuse. Use it as a chance to improve, not fester
Second to that: most issues with the RPG scene - at the individual, group, and sometimes even design level - come down to the fact it often requires the effort of a moderately invested group assignment to make work efficiently, but too many people treat it with the flippancy of a casual taco night.
Too much of the RPG scene glorifies a scrappy grassroots aesthetic to the point it sabotages good design.
Not every game has to be crunchy and meticulously detailed, but it's glorification of vibegaming and repulsion to any inkling of polish has lead to a hobby full of products with no integrity.
lmao if you’re in line stay in line

Cute face, but this is his hunting face
I really hope the American people can grasp the concept of linear time this go around because if the voters pull another “2020 was during Biden’s term” and decide oil prices going up due to starting a war justified the war as punishment for oil prices going up, I swear to God…

"He won't put us in stupid wars!"

Workshopping a theory
Brand/genre fatigue used to be accompanied by people actively deciding to avoid thing, but due to the modern age of fandom and FOMO fatigue now takes the form of harsher criticism and louder complaining because people are unwilling to go without despite being tired of it.
So let me get this straight ...
1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil
I mean let’s be real, the grimy CRT and VHS cyberpunk dystopias of the 90s don’t seem so bad these days, at least people could afford cool cyborg shit.
I'm realizing there's a huge cohort starving for imagery of the future that rejects everything that happened after 9/11
