Is this a safe space to answer Doctor Who? 😶 It's so campy but for some reason I'm hooked

The really expensive ones are that price because of consoomers collecting the stuff. Same as action figures, funko pops, etc.

I'm so allergic I only experience the smooth bliss of a clear nose when I get out of a steaming hot shower

Way lower brow than other entries, but I just finished the last Stormlight Archives book that released, Wind and Truth. Pretty on beat character moments and a few unexpected turns. Very cool page turner to settle down in the evening

So refreshing seeing those words actually used in a public setting. Suicide instead of "self unaliving", rape instead of "grape", etc. Maybe I really am chronically online

Wasn't this guy one of those "zizian" nutjobs?

Ziz believes there are two kinds of core, "good" and "nongood". "Nongood" cores are the most common (about 95% of the population). A "nongood" core is one that only grants full agency when dealing with issues of self survival or protecting offspring. This is enforced by a filter that only unlocks full agency when it detects those objects in a situation. Sometimes this filter breaks, producing a "good" core. Because people have two cores, there are three basic alignments: "nongood", "single good", and "double good". "Single good" is about 5% of the population, having one broken core which allows limited altruistic agency. Ziz seems to believe the probability of cores breaking is independent. That means the "double good" alignment only occurs in one fourth of one percent of people. This is important because double goods are the only people who can have full altruistic agency in Ziz's worldview. In this model "core" cannot be changed and you're stuck with the morality you have. This is important to consider in later sections where we talk about what Ziz tells people about their cores.

Forgot about BGG! That one is amazing, too

I just stumble upon them using Kagi search and phind.com

Is it, though? You aren't contributing anything to the local economy or culture while simultaneously stimulating gentrification...

Forums are still alive in ultra niche communities. My favorites: Badger and Blade for wet shaving, Snuffhouse for snuff tobacco, Quantnet for quantitative finance. All of these gather way better content and users than their Reddit counterpart, which usually devolves into memes and pic of the day stuff
