cookie clicker has a more nuanced philosophical argument than you, how does that not mortify you?

"the void is all about survival of the fittest and the strong rule over the weak"

which makes it literally identical to the light now and also order, and fel, and death, and life.

your entire cosmology is now made up
of thomas hobbes. well done, it used to be kinda cool and you fucked it.

"lets strip all nuance out of a philosophical concept manifesting as a literal energy and just make it evil because we need a bad guy."

cool, did you have to kill one of the better parts of your cosmology with fucking incel level understandings of nihilism.

it's incoherent now.

the weakest part by far is the voidstorm.

it's an entire zone of edgelords and "I'm 14 and this is deep" level shit with zero actual coherent thought put into anything. which makes sense as it is a pure reflection of by far the dumbest thing to come out of post SL warcraft - the void.

I knew going in I'd be immensely annoyed by how poor the quality of story and the butchering of the setting and particularly my favourite elements of it - the Elves - but I had to know the extent.

needless to say, cannibal holocaust was less gruesome and had a better plotline.

the same can be said about the elves. and the more time they got, the worse they became too. now we're just roleplaying a mid DnD campaign the likes of which would make mattholomew mercer cringe from second hand embarrassment.

it's just theme park attraction shit.

I used to care about the lore of the trolls.
they were actually extremely interesting once you got beyond the patina of racist nonsense slapped over the top of them. now it's just "wow really, just give me the next quest. I cannot be bothered following your MLP storyline of a narrative."

it'd me less tonally dissonant and break the kayfabe less if you just acknowledged the whole thing as a larp.

the hot void mommy elf isn't actually trying to destroy the world. she's playing a character. thanks, now there is actually a suspension of disbelief.

major lore characters being like "rah, I have so much trauma and emotionality about this violent genocidal war we fought a generation ago."

okay? it's hard to treat this seriously when every other quest is like "the nearly extinct elves lost another dozen people to drive 'engagement'".

who is that even for? you're asking me
to emotionally engage by roleplaying my character? you're only going to fuck it up somehow and make it like a joke.

and yes, as predicted it did indeed end with the "twist" that it was all a ruse.

why even bother?

it's wild that warcraft has all this interesting shit going on and then they waste it on making a theme park attraction for morons with no taste, but insist you take it seriously as a legitimate work of fiction.

they have a quest where it's like "lets unpack that trauma bestie" and like... no?

hands

then it wouldn't work because you're not a m*n

- "egg fried rice is what you get when the chef hasn't been introduced to estrogen."
- "men trying to be sexy is so incredible cringe it makes me less bi."
- "you know what'd be funny, a post about posts that I didn't make because they were terrible."
- "why yes, I am a fan of meta humour."

posts that are on the cutting room floor:
- "hey, did you know there is actually documented evidence of snuff films? red rooms too! how fucked is that?!"
- "what if lesbians had the power to kill men with their thoughts?"
- "I kind of lowkey am disgusted by het couples, ngl. warcraft is nauseating."

"that's not fair Lucy-"

go read the comments.

no seriously.

at least half of them are blatant lesbophobia, the other half is blatant misogyny, all of them are liberals who are trying to larp as progressives, and at least one called her a paedophile for having this take.

"bisexual woman decides she is done dating men, liberals furious."

more at seven.

I'm sorry, are y'all bullying this woman because she made herself unavailable for sexual exploitation by men or some
other nebulously defined reason?

"essay that has been blowing up the lesbian internet"

the what?

a lot of yuri is gonna just fucking die outside of Japan because of this shit.

reprehensible. AI companies need to be torched already, why is the bubble taking so fucking long to pop?

rip to half of all english yuri manga translations, seven sea entertainment apparently got bought out by an AI company and they're going to use AI to translate series.

I will not be purchasing any, I'd rather eat my own bone marrow. but I'm also studying Japanese so, I'll eventually just swap.

"it's hard to make off-putting characters for sicko lesbians"

no it isn't, just write a sexually aggressive cheery girl who ultimately ignores boundaries not because she's evil but because she's autistic.

you'll have book length screeds about how put off by her they are.

unironically though.

I am pretty comfortable with being ace at the moment, that said there are some real suckable cocks out there flopping around on my bsky feed.

see the thing with that is - they don't actually want goth women they just want easy prey, and to them depressed women seem like easy prey.

but if we're going to see a war, I hope the turbo-fascist imperial empire gets an extremely bloody nose while trying to impose its genocidal world order across the globe.

may all dictatorships crumble and all people be free.

anyway already had to have the argument with my boomer parents who have been brainrotted by fox news despite being Australians, who thinks it's good to blow up Iran. I am personally hoping the conflict doesn't escalate and the leadership of all involved suffers fatal heart attacks.

kind of lowkey hoping we see a few US naval ships get sunk, maybe then we'll finally get some reliable data on how well those aegis systems work instead of just unverifiable investor's reports.

also it would be funny.

as the old saying goes - death to america.
