I'm not an expert in psychology, but straight up denying reality has to be a worse strategy than just admitting Biden is senile.

Yeah, but the mechanics really push you towards certain builds. Bosses are too fast so 90% of the time you can't use slower, heavier weapons effectively.

I also didn't like how they went hard on "long wind up but extremely quick execution" for lots of boss attacks. In DS1 and DS2, you can kinda dodge attacks on instinct alone if your reaction times are good. In Elden Ring, you just have to remember the timing on the attacks which isn't that engaging. Eventually, I just used my first attempt on ER bosses to kite the boss and study their patterns.

Joe getting covid, spreading it to Trump, and killing them both would be the one thing that could save America.

Everything looks just fine on 1337 and gogunlocked.

i would actually find it horrific if they kept tissue from a human arm alive (say, a bicep) and made it do stuff with electrical signals (say, lift something) for 'research purposes',

Buddy, I hate to tell you this, but that's literally what your brain does with your arm every single time you move it.

Plus, these seem to be made from interneurons from skin cells. Basically, neurons who transmit signals along the nervous system. I'd be more concerned if they used Pyramidal cells which play more of a role in learning, cognition, and memory.

While interesting, you wouldn't say that keeping some tissue from the arm alive to be a "horror" on par with a brain in a jar.

And they stole the idea from me. I said what if we had a giant robot, and we had someone shove a small Japanese man in his ass. Then when it was inside, he could control the robot with wires and buttons while inside the ass.

The game is definitely balanced around them but making the player reliant on the jank of AI can make the fights hit-or-miss.

Sometimes your summon will get bodied by the boss in 10 seconds, sometimes it'll last the entire fight taking off a quarter of the boss's healthbar. There's just a large range of things that can happen which are mostly outside of player control.

Your honor, pretending to be Bansky in order to defraud people from their money was in a sense my own performance art and thus you could say that I am in a sense actually Banksy. So no, I don't think I did anything wrong.

All of the endurance run trainings only have their long runs at like 70% of the end race goal, what's with that?

If I'm training for a half-marathon, why would my long runs not go up to 13 or at least 12 miles? The longest long-run they have in the training is 10 miles. I feel like I'm going to go out on race day, hit 10.5 miles and then not be able to finish. I get that I'd be more pumped on race day, but not enough to pull an extra 30%.

The straight man in my comedy act practice is both a women and a gay.

It's 2024 guys, even gay women can be straight men.

That's assuming that an engine built for driving a space ship would be powerful enough to push the giant space rock.

It'd be like strapping a car engine to a mountain and expecting it to go just as fast.
