Please just go away for another 9 months, troll.

I'll see you in December 2024

Why don't you let people do whatever they want and drop this navel-gazing fake moralising? Fucking hell. While I've been adequately convinced videogames are okay, I think as a society we need to bring back societal shame. (So to be clear, I think there are contexts where videogame players don't nee...

I still haven't fully understood why the anti-capitalist left has such a strong trust for the massive medical corporations who's number one motive is profit. Even now as evidence continues to pile up how rushed these vaccine are and corrupt the process was, there is a minority of anti-capitalists wh...

What do you call your participation on this website? Webdiplomacy is an online game. Webdiplomacy is more a simulator than a game, isn't it? Maybe that's a good point, but I don't know if I consider this a videogame. Why are you replying now to comments from 9 months ago? I also put my first questi...

Why are we engaging with someone who has Canada's worst prime minister as his avatar, and doesn't know that Germany and Austria were allied in WW1.

You can't backstab someone you're not allied with.
You think Harper is worse than Diefenbaker?

What are people's thoughts on this? Agree or disagree?

I think I lean towards no, but I'm open to arguments to change my mind. There comes a point where you need to live in the real world, and video games are just a form of escapism that is unhealthy. Society would be better if people spent more time leveling up real skills and getting experience in pr...

Because crypto is back babyyy

6 months later, still only at 50k American.

3 years later, we haven't gained much ground but at least we haven't lost anything eh?

Sorry I got sick, will catch up soon

I guess a lot of it is about how you view time. Death does not wipe you from existence. Time is just another dimension. The me writing this is just as much part of the universe as the me walking through the woods yesterday afternoon or the me eating a curry this evening. There's a little bit of unc...

I do not believe the universe has an intelligent creator. This does not bother me in the slightest. I fear death, because I am sure nothing comes after it. I turn that fear into a positive, to the greatest extent I can, by trying to ensure I appreciate, and show appreciation for, the things which p...

Existential dread? You mean, like, fear of death? I think it's more the "nothing matters, everything is meaningless" or "the universe can only be an accident" type thinking. I often hear them talk about how being a blip in the universe that is nothing more than an accident is troubling. Curious... ...

If you would like other insights into how it is possible to have a happy and fulfilling social life without the assistance of Jesus, do let me know. I fully believe you're having a good social life and that makes me happy to hear. I do think it's possible, it's just a lot harder for some people (es...

I think I made a couple over the years, but probably good to start fresh. We all develop and grow every year so I suspect we've evolved our beliefs since previous threads too. One thing I've recently discovered is how quickly the New Atheist movement died out. Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens,...

I don't think it's that weird for a straight person to never have been at a gay bar. How often do gay people go to straight bars? But I like to think I have a diverse group of friends. I know Mennonites, Baptists, Catholics, Methodists, a lot of Reformed people (who are basically the Christian versi...

Society is perpetually collapsing. But invariably it doesn't, and as "something not collapsing" is fundamentally uninteresting history invariably forgets how near to collapse things may have felt at the time. Religion is always changing, with fashions coming and going over the years. I personally m...
