You aren’t wrong for liking what you like. But I love subtext, make me riddle out the meaning.

I know this isn’t all ‘non-subtext’ works, but I hate when theres a beautiful passage that neatly implies what a character is thinking and feeling indirectly… Followed by them just blithely stating their current emotional state out loud. Hits like a sack of bricks every time.

Yeah, glad they address the scaling thing. My initial thought with jumping is that, you can’t have your cake and eat it too, in regards to physics.

Either you scale down in a way that works with physics, and die instantly. Or you scale down ‘magically’, and imo you don’t get to reap the benefits of stuff like ‘extra’ strength and other square-cube-law changes. (though, I guess if you are just saying ‘it’s magic’, you can come up with any number of justifications for keeping that stuff)

It’s not that much slower. Our 20a outlets give 2,400w, while yours gove 3000w. And, it’s still faster than a stovetop kettle. Its more that we don’t make hot tea very regularly, while drip coffee was the dominant hot drink for so long.

Where’s ‘turning the music off and driving in silence’?

Sockeye salmon are reddish pink. That’s always what I thought the association was.

Its almost entirely made from plants

And like, even if it was dinosaurs, Dirt is also (partially) made from decayed animals. And, oversimplifying, that dirt becomes plants.

And that’s all fine for vegans, because it doesn’t involve exploitation of animals. Like, if you needed to raise and kill animals to use their corpses to grow plants, that’d be animal exploitation.

I dunno, I really don’t get either of them. They just seem like dreadfully boring games. Played like, 6 hours of each, and I just, don’t get the appeal, at all.

Movies and TV are boring. In the past two decades, there’s been a small handful of stuff that’s watchable, but most of the media is like, painfully boring.

None? I’ve never really understood the appeal of ‘rewatching stuff’. My favorite movie(s) are the LotR ones, and I’ve probably watched it through… three times over my life?
