I suppose people will always do what they think is easiest

You know what would be way better than a symbol for “healthy” food would be requiring manufacturers to label food that fails to meet standards as “unhealthy.” Bonus points if you tax it to death so it’s no longer economically viable to sell garbage and label it “food”

Like, shit, the public perception is that I can’t afford healthy food anyway. But at least if the unhealthy food was also labelled it’d be easier to avoid

You can’t teach a computer to feel because computers lack the hardware for emotion.

You might be able to emulate a feeling in a convincing way. This means that computers will always be somewhat sociopathic.

So to your question, I think that means they can mirror their inputs or fake feelings according to their programming

Friendly reminder that using bleach to clean cat pee can fucking kill you and your cat

I mean, I’d be kind of surprised if it did kill you, but ammonia and bleach mix to make an extremely toxic gas

See, that’s exactly what I liked about the ability.

It’s an attack that even if you walk away from it, you have a story to tell about it

It’s a tough pill to swallow

Swallow Whole used to be my favorite mechanic with large creatures like dragons, hydras, or what have you.

I mean, it’s both narratively and mechanically a powerful ability. Usually the creature gets a bite attack with Improved Grab, so they get a free grapple if they hit. Then the next turn if they have a grappled creature in their mouth, they swallow them. From there it’s usually continuous acid / bludgeoning damage, but the swallowed creature gets a chance to fight their way out or get rescued.

Being grappled was already somewhat debilitating, but you could usually ignore it. But when you get swallowed it immediately raises the stakes. It also means you can’t ignore getting grappled because it can become so much worse so quickly.

Then one day one of my players noticed I was using the ability a lot and accused me of having a vore fetish. Now I don’t really use Swallow Whole at all

Haha, I’ve considered it. I’d really like to at least be able to buy pizza for the gang who helped make the game.

I released a game like three years ago and it’s earned $97 in that time.

I feel your pain

The real miracle here is that the lil guy doesn’t have a thought in their head for most of the day. And look how happy they are!

This tidbit is sometimes presented like it’s a pro-trans win, but the truth is far from pretty.

If you get caught as a cis-gendered gay man in Iran then you’re potentially facing the death penalty. In a legal move that wouldn’t exist anywhere else in the world, you can plea-bargain your ding dong into a hoo-hah.

If the state is offering you a choice between mutilation or death, is it even really a choice?
