I tried it once. Never again.

I'm pretty sure it's AI generated; which is really weird because I'm pretty sure there are plenty of 50's era images featuring a smiling woman in the kitchen.

C'mon olgaf, we know you like dicks and vaginas, would it have been that hard for the punchline to involve a hot wolf-man?

Those are massive raccoons. Holy fuck.

Nah, no copium here. It's mainly just an observation about how "retro" tends to be a couple generations behind whatever the current generation is, and in the past, that's been very obvious on the basis of graphics capabilities. However, while we have a lot of fancy new rendering tricks and significantly more powerful hardware, most Xbox 360 games still hold up decently well. As such, imo, Xbox 360 will become "retro" if/when VR takes off or a brand-new rendering technique (like gaussian splatting) becomes commonplace. I think that's what it'd take for me to see it as "retro".

Yes! I've been trying to figure out what the fuck the difference is for a long time but for some reason that explanation kept eluding me; I don't mind being called "a female [blank]", but just being called "a female" bothers me. But that's it right there, it's when it's used as a noun.

Hey, uh, don't refer to male humans as "men" and then female humans as "females" like that. It's kinda dehumanizing.

Like, I get calling men, "males" and women "females", because I'll do that sometimes (I claim fur-brain as my defense, because calling anthro characters "man" or "woman" is weird); but try not to do the thing where you say "men" then "females" as if we're a complete different species. That's... just... not appropriate in a normal context.

NGL, I don't feel like the Xbox 360 or Wii are really "retro". A lot of the games still hold up decently well from a visual standpoint imo. Obsolete? Sure. Old? Sure. Retro? Nah.

I think the GameCube generation is the border of "retro". That's where you still had some games that looked old (like Animal Crossing), but you also had games that still look relatively good (like Pikmin). Imagine calling Crysis "retro". That's the same generation we're talking about.

I'm also saying this as someone who remembers the N64 fairly well.

The joke has been around a while, so they probably have made the same joke.

We killed God. And we'd do it again if given the chance.

I think that's why chaotic good tends to be held above lawful good. Lawful good sits by and does everything by the book, resulting in a constant game of catch-up. Chaotic good puts a cap in a ceo's ass and makes the others paranoid.

Hah, well, I'd still suggest making sure you're talking to a therapist. They'll be able to help you through the process, help you make sure it's really what you want, things like that. It sounds like it clicked for you though, and that's a good sign.
