  • This is why I’m always a bit askance when presented with Atheism as some kind of enlightened philosophy.

    Its not a philosophy, its a position on the existence of god.

    is kinda simple-minded and divorced from any historical perspective on its face.

    Its simple because its only a statement of belief in no god in the form of identification. A historical perspective is not needed to come to a conclusion as to whether people who believe in god are stupid or smart. You can also do that through thinking about their rationality or logical process for coming to those conclusions.

    You’re casually dismissing whole intermediate strains of philosophical and literary development

    If I wrote a philosophy or theology about how everything is made of bananas, and then for hundreds/thousands of years people argued about the nuances of my absurd and baseless belief system I think it’d be fair to dismiss it anyway. It doesn’t matter how much fan fiction is written about Musaceae-ology. You don’t have to read it, you can safely ignore it.


  • I’m bi (specifically polysexual, but that gets confusing because its less well known and I’m also polyamorous) and my attraction to specific genitals is roughly equal to body morphology and a cute face’s importance, but I’m simply way less less picky about them.

    I wish I was just as non-picky about the body morphology and cute faces. My romantic life would probably have been way more fulfilling at this point if that had been the case.

    I have over 1300 games across various libraries (digital and physical)

    If I have cash to spend and it fits into all of the following categories I basically always buy:

    -80% off or more, or under $5, or its part of a “complete your collection” bundle that compounds its discount with an existing one.

    -Its 8.5/10 or better (or is part of a series of games that I want to play through that has a 8.5+/10 within it.)

    -in a genre/series I really really personally like.

    But this actually eliminates a lot of temptations.

    The only other alternative situation is if I want to play the game immediately but that never happens because I’m always playing through a series of games already it seems like. Right now I’m playing through my Tom Clancy collection. Its the last bit of Ubisoft games I intend to play before uninstalling uplay/ubi-connect (probably forever).
