Why are its eyes on the back wall of its orifice

I just hate the pathetic effort they put into the quotes. Sean Bean was a weird choice anyway ("what do people universally and forever like? Game Of Thrones I suppose!") but then they had him read quotes from literal blogs and often quotes that shat all over the technology you'd just researched. Oh! I completed a wonder! I definitely want to hear a quote about how it's obsolete now and its abandonment caused immense poverty in the Ruhr valley.

That and the movement towards nations instead of, yknow, Civilizations. Sorry Australia, you are not a Civilisation. Nor is Canada. Nor Scotland. How do we have Scotland - an independent country for less than 300 years - and not the fucking Celts.

So... is Bay over Bae canon now?

Yes you understand anarchists now.

Of course anarchists will then reinvent the state to explain how they'd prevent this happening. But like, it's not called the state, so it's better.

What on earth are you talking about? What start button is in the middle?

This attitude towards the downvote button came from reddit, because Reddit started hiding responses with an arbitrary number of downvotes, which most Lemmy clients emulate. That's how it stifles conversation.

Is this in answer to something or just a passing thought?

[–] TheOctonaut@mander.xyz -3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't know how you got from point 1 (which is valid - but do you think there aren't Germans who will say yes?) to point 2?

How does an something being an answer on a survey make it a reasonable answer? If surveys should be limited to reasonable answers, how do we ever quantify how many unreasonable people exist?
