You're telling me I'm going to have to confront all these tiny
smurf-ups someday when I'm unable to grasp my greater mistakes or even my present?
What does it mean to exist? What's your life when you're the only person in the audience? And what if you hate it? What's the point of seeking recognition if it's so easily unraveled by the eyes of the public? Well, then, it's not about the work, you can say. Well, it never was about the work, the work was an extension of you, you want to share that and express that with other people for some sort of catharsis. And maybe all the small facts, presented outside of a narrative, no matter if it's condoning or justifying them, do make a difference to the work, to you, as a person. If someone knew everything about you, would they still like you? If someone knew every thought you think, would they still like you? It could be anyone but imagine it's everyone. How would you be weighed among all people?

>National Lampoon John should have had one of the posters on his wall and definitely had the magazines stashed somewhere. I think it definitely fits into "odd selections for idolization", "most"ly "pretty cheesy." I see this as more likely than him liking MAD since I see MAD as lower-brow, more juvenile, especially in regards to toilet humor, and focused on pop-culture as opposed to being more generally surreal. If you care enough to disagree, feel free to have the "Would John and his Dad have MAD or National Lampoon" debate with me.
It's important to remember that Dad has a similar interest in comedy as John so the big bwo effect is at play here.
No.21627
>>21624I have delusional fantasies where I'm popular enough to where everything is eventually exposed no matter how difficult it'd be. The delusion is the popularity, I definitely do think enough Internet sleuthing can bring out every skeleton in my closet. But that probably applies to most people.
Realistically, I go by pretty diverse things on X, Y, and Z but I'm no stranger to crossing the streams (particularly here) but nobody really has a perfect track record with that. I refuse to officially connect my Internet identities but, again, if people dig, they'll probably be able to stitch everything together.
Somewhat less realistically, I know I have developed a small and largely indifferent group of bad actors that can probably, easily light a fire under my ass at any time. I don't know how I'd deal with that.

I'd like to put myself out there but sometimes I wonder how easily everything I've ever done could cascade into a culture of hate. And you know, I really wouldn't take being a spectacle well. I can't imagine a worse fate. It's in some of my worst nightmares.
And here's where I might share some empathy with Hu¢¢ie. Yeah, I'd hate it too. But I probably wouldn't deny everything. I have guilt and shame but I think I'd try to be transparent and dig myself into a hole. I mean, the other option is digging yourself into a hole anyway. Anyway, this is all unreasonable.
It's just a neurosis. One that's been nurtured over the past month or so, this is the culmination of all my anxiety and invasive thoughts. Probably the first of many (a couple.)

>>21703Uh capitalism
No.21707
>>21705>Uh capitalismIt's hard to put into words the true essence of indie gameism (which is assuredly MILLENNIAL, not that it matters.)
I always point towards the gravitation towards fake minimalism, surrealism, and cosmic horror.
The minimalism is fake because it's usually only part of the presentation that's minimalist, is inconsistent with its curt dialogue (which is usually the main way it manifests besides LIMINAL AREAS), and tends to not have subject matter that is "minimal." Whether that last thing defines "literary" (we're talking about games with text) minimalism is kind of up for debate. I don't think something that is covered with a lot of implicit context is "minimalist" so much as it is "esoteric." This isn't really a problem in itself. The problem is that they tend to call it the former. And the intent is more steeped in the idea that the author thinks it's "minimalist" and the connotations that come with that when they're imagining the player's reactions.

The surrealism is bad for a number of reasons, the major one being that it isn't very surreal but it's also not very good writing anyway. There's lots of purple prose, very blunt lines about THEMES, Wikipedia intellectual namedrops as a flourish to otherwise plain and conceptually simplistic content, a general lack of subtlety especially in juxtaposition, and a lot of repetitiveness and unoriginality that are covered by the things I listed, in part, but beyond those things too. There's a lot of redundant symbols and themes and even the interplay of these things tend to follow a similar formula. There's always a gauge of some abstract, cerebral word that fills basic, conventional gameplay roles like experience, health, or a resource for attacks or what have you. They all blur together and feel especially derivative once you remember there are things outside of videogames to draw from. "wot if x was a bureaucracy innit" with lines about how the universe is a doughnut become a lot less effective when you remember The Trial exists and they probably read it.
The cosmic horror is bad because it's omnipresent and because it's cosmic horror which is bad.
I can list out all these things but it isn't satisfying to me because I've said nothing salient or identified some abstract lynchpin. I find this shit incredibly frustrating. It's part of why I don't like writing or talking or thinking, in order of decreasing severity- severity that only decreases because of how easy it is to avoid, because the exposure lessens the severity. If I can't summarize why I think something is shit well, then I'm basically the same as it. I know I definitely can write the same way as the shit I hate and I often do cringe at what I put out. It's all very frustrating but it's a lot easier to just jot down my broad thoughts than it is to try and reframe them more eloquently. So I'm stuck like this. And I don't make or say or do anything truly constructive.

But yes, capitalism.

No.21708
I also think of one example of frustrating surrealism/cosmic horror in Look Outside. Instead of just having it be "the sun turns people into monsters", for whatever reason, the first floor is a "non-Euclidean" (

) labyrinth because reality is crumpling or whatever, I don't think there's really a clear answer. Prove me wrong, I don't care, even if there is, it's clear to me that this element of the "narrative" only exists for gameplay reasons. I find it very annoying. I think it's the exemplification of one of the many manifestations of "bad surrealism" in indie games. Ludonarrative dissonance that serves only to bore- no matter how meta it is, I can recognize that certain things only exist because it is a videogame and that's sort of a slap into the face to anything attempting "surrealism."

No.21710
>>21709>I doubt they are exposed to Kafka…I did say "probably" but they could have always just looked at a Wikipedia page.
>I presume they're more curious,You get tired of the same shit over and over real fast. I'm talking about a subset of a subset here when it comes to indie games (that isn't FoTM trend chasers or "MY VERSION OF OLD THING") but the Haunted Playstation collections that come out yearly always has flashes of "those types of indie games" (and a lot of the time, the games aren't going for a Playstation 1 or 2 aesthetic or feel because of course not.)
I want to send you the games from the collection that my initial post was about and see if you could deduce what the theme was (to prove my initial point…) but it had memetic requirements for inclusion and again, at least one game was just a pretty naked attempt at replication. It was
David Lynch. I will now remind you about the time I couldn't finish a LP of Anthology of The Killer (which some cozener that may or may not still be here apparently really liked) That's another particularly bad example (I don't think Look Outside is a particularly bad example in general because it is: an actual videogame. I just really disliked that one element of it. No, I'm Not A Human is also just a good example in general but unlike a lot of the ones I'm talking about, I think there's some good things that are held back by the patterns that I NOOTICE.)

>>21712I am someone with basically zero experience with David Lynch and I can tell that those games were nothing like David Lynch. You know how I could tell? Because they were indistinguishable from all the other indie games I've seen that weren't intended for a David Lynch collection.

I feel confident in saying that Deadly Premonition did a better job in being Lynch than these games. Again, in spite of everything.
I don't know if you know Lynch but this might be a fun exercise of your imagination if you go in thinking about what I'm thinking about.

What I really hate about Slay The Spire clones is that they copy EVERY design decision in it, even the ones which are kind of weird like having a dedicated universal resource system (that refreshes each round with some exception) or shuffling your remaining hand into your deck every round and the combat basically being all spells/sorceries instead of summoning monsters like most TCGs (though there is one that kind of plays like Slay The Spire called Fresh and Blood.) I really don't understand trying to copy a card game if you don't like card games in general, specifically. I can understand other genre cash-ins but card games feel like they require too much "brainwork" that it'd be demoralizing if your heart isn't in it.
I'd ask G. Pete but I don't want to be let down by AI brain, my little heart can't handle it today.

Asking it without info mode, it casts a wider net and most are these are pretty gimmicky (and already on my wishlist) It feels stretched thin. It's very odd. None of them really feel like roguelite!YGO! except the one that explicitly says it's inspired by Yu-Gi-Oh! which feels kind of off. You'd think the streams would cross more but there's no overlap on the Venn diagram. It's ironic because modern competitive Yu-Gi-Oh! is basically "muh synergy" runs batting heads with each other.
I wonder how many of these fall into the "muh synergy" pitfall of roguelites anyway… (The most promising one in being close to the system I want mentions OTKs which is a huge red flag.)

I wonder what Puni's take on the idea that Deadlock will scrape up all the "movement FPS" grognards because there's no competition.

Maybe I've said this before.

>It had a worse drop-off Ascend had in two years in just a couple of months with about a 10th of the initial playercount

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1677770/The_Case_of_the_Golden_Idol/Before I started I thought I wasn't going to like this, then I started enjoying the first few levels, but it peaked before half way and I was disappointed by the end. The mysteries are designed in a way that makes the player feel smart without actually being difficult. The game is similar in form to Obra Dinn, except it has more diverse clues and you're posed more diverse questions, but it doesn't live up to its potential. The first few levels started to pose a slight challenge quickly which made me hopeful the difficulty would go beyond that. Instead, they just added increasing amounts of text to reading comprehension quizzes with too many redundant clues. And of course there's a free hint button you can click at any time if you belong to the target audience of ESL gamers who struggle with this English language proficiency test of a game.
The graphics are kind of fugly but I don't care. The story started out cool with Umineko-like family intrigue but turned dumb later on where most characters got written into being boringly good/evil. The finale/epilogue was okay I guess, but you can tell they were really afraid the players wouldn't "get it", it makes callbacks to recurring characters from previous chapters (reading comprehension!) but I barely had to go back and check things. Maybe if you took breaks it would be more confusing, but this game can comfortably be beaten in one sitting. I'm not surprised the devs are Latvian given the retarded unnuanced 1984-type "cults are… le bad!" social commentary that you'd expect in a EFL game from 10 years ago. This was at least an actual indie game with a modest credits length, though, so whatever, well done on making something interesting and playable that doesn't waste too much of your time. Overall, too short and too easy though. Maybe the DLCs are better, but I would not buy this game in the first place because it's overpriced.

To add to the atmosphere, White Chicks (fully muted with no subtitles. A movie I consider culturally valuable as both a so-bad-it's-good comedy and a time capsule for 2000s preppy blonde fashion with the especially tantalizing beret with pigtails combo.
There are people who say this set-up is less absurd and better than Little Man which is wrong. One is more inherently campy while the other must play to stereotypes to eek out humor. While a full-grown babyman obviously leads to more uncomfortable moments, it's too blatantly silly for much of the unsettling uncanny valley to set in like with White Chicks's orc
wwomenfolk (male; black.) I'd argue that this makes White Chicks more surreal in some ways and it is more absurd because it is, by definition, exploring the absurdity that is apparently white
mewles. Little Man, in turn, doesn't have much commentary about babies who really do need to be taken down a peg.
There are also people who say that a comedy can't be so-bad-it's-good or that you can't intentionally make so-bad-it's-good. (
>>21738) These are people who want to put comedy into neat little boxes and elevate irony as some supreme arbiter of value. A joke must always be FUNNY, you can never simply be amused by levity- you're not actually enjoying it and so it's not so-bad-it's-good. Comedies that don't make you laugh are irredeemably BAD but the same thing doesn't apply to horror movies that don't make you scream because it just doesn't, okay?!
These people are also hypocritical. They can enjoy things ironically but refuse to enjoy things made with a sense of irony- but also sometimes these same people make things ironically bad anyway. It's retarded. This view on media criticism is basically subcultural at this point and has influenced many a douchebag; the culture impact of Mysties can probably be understated. Whatever.

I've seen the Murder Drones finale which was hot garbage but I've never seen the pilot (we should watch the autistic man react to it sometime), I'd imagine it falls somewhere in the massive powergap between The Amazing Digital Circus and Knights of Guinevere. Gameoverse being the most successful one popularity-wise despite being the worst by far because e-celebs is really disappointing but it's expected.
We also watched Planetronika which felt like an actual pilot and not "we need the entire plot and setting explained" and was charming with its low budget (which felt like low budget and not bad stylistic decisions or laziness like every Glitch Production show) and silliness because it was trying to be a cartoon and not a FANDUMB but I guess it's bad because girl sexy and transparent pandering to Janpanimation (which was kind of cringey but it's fine) and whatever.

>I hated Murder Drones the least because the animation is nice to look at but there's nothing else going on there and all of the characters are the same. The Amazing Digital Circus has some cute little gags and it was "competent" in terms of episodic story-telling but the over-arching plot/character beats are forced and tedious as
smurf. Murderdrones seemed like shonen!shit with zero stakes and constant fake gore which is apparently an emergent Glitch Productions staple. I'd put The Amazing Digital Circus and The Gaslight District above it from what I've seen.
I would actually deem The Gaslight District just

from its pilot while The Amazing Digital Circus is a soft "bad" (though I haven't watched all the episodes through the autistic man) while the other Glitch Production pilots (and probably Murder Drones) are outright "terrible."

The result is all-or-nothing combat where you combo off or just don't have enough to pull and just
smurf off and die. Card game dungeoning should be the ultimate playground for toolbox decks (which, to me, are kind infamously hard to force to be the meta or design a game around whereas combo and control are so easy to make meta or design an entire game system around. Nobody is sadomasochistic enough to playing a purely control-
noble card game but the number of "combo" cardgames are
smurfing endless and include most deckbuilding dungeon roguelites)
>Oh, but then the decision-making is more about deckbuildingMother
smurfer, it'd still be about deckbuilding if you were forced to take cards. Perhaps even moreso if you're forced to take a card out of say, a selection of three, because of the ambiguity of the choice as opposed to the slightly more nebulous conflict of "maybe i need that" vs "muh consistency" every single time.
I'd want a game where the cards themselves are a finite resource but unfortunately, that requires a game dev with a brain to cook up (and even past that, I think you'd still end up with a lot of anti-fun no-win situations that can't be prevented with good decision-making. A safety net system is probably required even if it is a roguelite.)

There are already tons of "Kids in 80s" and pulp globe-trotting action TTRPGs. You can't do Spielberg. It's too played out (dare ye' make "Shark World: Lots of Big Sharks Where They Shouldn't Be" the tabletop game?) I say that but so is "NEON XD" and that got a million bucks. You have to go broad. But again, this is a sharpshooter's fallacy. There are probably a million games like this that never see the light of day. So, yeah, just do scrappy kid adventures, pulp action, neon laser shark sci-fi, legally distinct Star Wars/Star Trek, another cyberpunk off-shoot, MOAR LOVECRAFT etc. Anything too specific or original won't sell well. And there's competition. Maybe the golden ticket is legally distinct Transformers because I've never seen a TTRPG for it, there's potential gameplay-wise, and it has a dedicated fanbase? But maybe it already exists and I just don't know. I don't know where I'm going with this.

>>22047I remember slipping up once and it wasn't for any of those people. You are talking to yourself or #owning random people on the Internet, not me. I think it was someone in their later 40s. I legitimately can't find it in the archive. I thought it was the Stranger Things guys but those
smurfers were born in 1984 and that was an example of (YOU) being objectively wrong and having to back down.
Another millennial I complained about for millennialisms is Northenlion (1988)
Jr. himself barely slips away from the 1980 cut-off. When I think of millennial, I think of the manchild cartoon trio of Rebecca Sugar, Pendleton Ward, and J. G. Quintel who are all millennials. Whenever I see noname COOL JAPAN nostalgia and ADULTING, I assume it's millennials. But sure, that could be inaccurate. But your gauge isn't perfect either, it's much further from it, for a much dumber reason.
Sure, people throw "millennial writing" around too loosely. We can give you a bone.

But just because big bwo is doing it, it doesn't mean that millennials aren't also doing it, partially because of big bwo (not because of institutional power but just shared osmosis.) Millennial slop is probably more
noble in cringe comedy than snark and zoomer writing is probably going to be more WAAAAAACKY thanks to the influence of Glitch Productions.
The 80s are being contested over in the battlefield of nostalgia between boomers, gen-X, and millennials. If people call 80s slop millennial when it's not, so be it…? They just aren't pumping out enough 90s nostalgia, frankly.
You yourself said that "1985 barely qualifies as millennial" for whatever reason (you had a reason; "muh cold war" but I'd argue that the influence on media between 1980 and 1985 is limited and highly subject to personal experience which of course includes BIG BWO presence but then again, I'm the one who argues 9/11 rapidly shifted Internet culture and I'm in my own little bubble generationally because of that.) but that's just proof that the generation has a nuanced and sometimes overlapping definition with the previous one because of BIG BWO.

Also Cool Japan nostalgia is
noble, so I will take that as a compliment.
>Sure, people throw "millennial writing" around too loosely. We can give you a bone.There, thank you. There seems to be a push (possibly by the FYAD Gay Ops Illuminati) to turn "millennial" into a generic perjorative and synonym of "soyjak" (whose original template, of course, was Chuck Wendig).
>But just because big bwo is doing it, it doesn't mean that millennials aren't also doing it, partially because of big bwo (not because of institutional power but just shared osmosis.) This is also true, sadly. jackanape cynicism, apathy and insincerity seems to define internet culture.
There's also some negative traits that I will admit are peculiar to millennials, like being mind
smurfed into peacenikism by the Iraq War and having misplaced and unhealthy nostalgia for Clinton and Obama (the latter being particularly terrible).
>I'm the one who argues 9/11 rapidly shifted Internet culture and I'm in my own little bubble generationally because of that.Indeed. People think of zoomers as 1996 to whenever, but someone who remembers 9/11 is gonna be different to someone who doesn't. The end of the Cold War was an even bigger paradigm shift so it produced an even bigger difference.

>Indeed. People think of zoomers as 1996 to whenever, but someone who remembers 9/11 is gonna be different to someone who doesn't. I don't remember 9/11 (my mom denies my googoogagaa baby memory though I think she might just be wrong), I remember the Internet's reaction to 9/11 by playing and watching popular stuff on Newgrounds and YouTube. I remember being exposed to a culture that saw censorship as the ultimate evil. That's the point when talking about generations and history.
>The end of the Cold War was an even bigger paradigm shift so it produced an even bigger difference.Both the 11 year-old and 6 year-old would remember it. But the event is not what matters to dumb kids, what matters is the formative media, mostly. Earlier millennials might remember some Cold War paranoia but duck-and-cover drills were phased out in the 80s. The media palette? Well, there was mass-media and it was the height of the idiot box and there was VHS and shit- there's a lot of bleed.

What bothers me is that I came out of a place, a time completely different from everyone else. I'm not exactly the exemplar I'm hoping for but I kept an edge to me.

Boomers are still so charming to me, at times. It's hard to get mad at them. Maybe it's just because there's so much of a gap that their grievances seem quaint instead of annoyingly bullheaded. I feel like they might be the last generation to be like this though. When Gen-X is the oldest living generation (yeah, yeah, it's not technically boomers since the younger half of the Silent Generation is still "running" around), I don't think they'll be very charming. As time goes on, each generation will probably get more tech savvy (in the cultural sense) and presumably understands younger trends better. Then the vitriol is kind of grounded and you can't really dismiss it the same way that makes them feel harmless and cuddly. "Something to think about."

It's not the best element of the site but it was something unique to it because there was a large portion of people who'd refuse to filter it (or aren't able to because he evades filters) that would get mad and argue or just trolls poking the bear. Twitter,
coffeehouse, mainstream social media, you just ignore them or they get crybaby banned or they get so much exposure that they can't properly argue back.

Normal
MOORS have turned on The Boys. I will repeat again that all it takes for you to get normie praise is good presentation (which, here means good actors.) If the best parts of your show or comic or whatever are the first parts, your writing was NEVER GOOD. No exceptions to this. Most writers can make good hooks or scenes in isolation. No X character moment in season Y doesn't redeem it because it was just intrigue that didn't
smurfing lead into anything. Almost anyone could pump those out. Good writing is not "premises", it's "thoroughness", I won't say it's full-on Mystery Box yarnball but I will say that even fans said it was spinning its wheels. Most people's ideas on that "premise" is purely imaginary. You didn't write a story, you didn't write characters, you wrote moments. And stories like this suffer if you aren't part of the fandumb hyping it up and getting Cornutoed at every turn. You should watch The Boys season 1 now that the show has ended, see for yourself.

Big man made a big typo in his semi-professional outlet. I will say that reading Woodstock as one big whole is
smurfing cancerous because the filler still registers if you have any media literacy at all. I don't have "the facts" to back this but Jr. is deluded if he thinks the amount of archival fans is anywhere near the ones he accrued when the thing was still running and it's been almost a decade since it's been over. It really does not have the same appeal. Especially the later parts which he says he was apparently considering "more" by then. If you want to excuse the content of some of Act 6 because of dying dad and Kickstarter, whatever.

As hokey as it is, his comic book fate is better. There's a dramatic irony to it. It doesn't feel like it exists to "own" a fictional character. Which, as a writing choice, always makes the writer feel small to me. Like J.K Rowling with Voldemort (but he wasn't cowardly, I forget what pissed me off about that, what made it feel like a "This Is What's RIGHT.")
A "big bad" is always a power fantasy but rubbing the audience's face in "Oh, yeah, they were just weak all along" reeks of a special kind of insecurity. Especially because it robs the character of nuance. "They were literally always the same and if they lost power, they would return to how they were before they gained it and be completely unchanged" is just bad writing no matter how you slice it (which is part of what pissed me off about Voldemort- he was a rotten egg from the start.) Pleading and bargaining are also the least nuanced ways to portray it- you think there'd be a facade at the end too, right?
>>22227>HOIP Hope mixed with hype. Let's get it trending.
>I generally think the best writing shouldn't impose itself on the reader over serialized "seasons"Yes, television is a shit medium but that's not the discussion for today.
>but… Rowling win!
You didn't remind me. This really is just a coincidence. I suppose if we're to take what I said axiologically, Harry Potter is good writing… in spite of everything. I may have subjectively enjoyed the first parts more because KIDS AND FUN but undeniably, what the fandumb liked the most was the emergent properties of the series and no "fan" of Harry Potter says "Man, those books just got worse as they went on." So J.K Rowling? Good writer? Eeeeeeh, come on. Closer to it on a fundamental level than The Boys writers? Maybe? I demand you watch the first season now. I've been wanting to test you a lot lately. This is another one. I forget what the previous one was but you still have to do that one before I forget it even existed, MEX.
Also, for the record, Harry Potter is kind of better than Woodstock from an archival reading perspective because you don't feel the drain of grimdark as much, probably? Woodstock has less hype and less context for hate, you kind of need the archivist perspective because that shit is drowned out in the fandumb now, but you still hate how insubstantial everything is. Even if the lows were lower, the comic is absolutely nothing without HYPE for the high highs- especially the ones that are sort of illusory and only impressive because you're in "the moment."

>I REALLY hate Alan Moore style "subversions" and "deconstructions" of superhero media, which somehow manage to be even worse.I will tell you this once, don't use Moore's name in vain. He hates this shit more than you do. Watchmen had a point beyond contempt while The Boys didn't, even originally. The show has even less of a point, you're supposed to be glad the bad and complex-but-only-because-he's-pathetic man is dead. The Butcher thing feels like a vestigial element from the comics. One's an exercise in misery while the other is pure spite towards an imagined enemy who is a proxy for real world badmin.
>>22262You can think Moore is a

I don't know how anyone could see Sinfest and not think "Oh, this dude is kowtowing to
wwomenfolk. He's definitely an antsy virgin" or something along those lines. Or you believe he's seriously pussy-whipped. But unless he's had a girlfriend since day one and she somehow never left him despite the radical swing in politics, there was was a time where he was ragging on sex positivity (
wwomenfolk being
bawds is not their fault, it's society's fault and by society, he means men) and porn and pick-up-artists and sexism when he was maidenless. Because that's a lot of what Sinfest ALWAYS was. I don't know, maybe Tats is just a really normal guy with enough artistic talent that he can shit all these out in like two hours to cover the whole week and not have to worry about it. But people with extreme politics tend not to be normal people, for better or worse. And the specific "enemies" that have stayed the same FOR OVER 26 YEARS (longer than I've been alive) are very suspect.

Also, I don't know, I guess I sort of disappointed because I was under the impression Ross was just kind of a normal guy in spite of his connection to A.H.
To imagine his dream project that he was trying to get made was something so trite and ludicrously limited is depressing. Makes you think a mothersmurfer is a hylic. Though, I don't know, maybe it isn't his exact vision (somebody mentioned the backgrounds looked good, they did, yeah, it's a shame a lot of the animation was lacking) because all Glitchproduction shows have the tone of Saturday morning cartoons with abrupt seizures of melodrama beat-for-beat, it feels almost mandated. Though maybe that's just how "this group of people" writes.
We can easily call them millennials or zillenials though I don't see much point. I guess it is useful to bundle them in with Sugar because their most glaring flaw and defining trait is their inability to balance tone, the tendency to switch between drastic tones rapidly and barely ever having a scene that blurs tonal lines. Looking at it as a generational thing, I've got nothing for why this is or where it came from. From the audience stand-point, it makes sense that Gen Z and Gen Alpha slobber over it because their completely shot attention span makes them consume media on a scene-by-scene basis and never as a gestalt.

FROM THE DESK OFROSE LALONDE
Lately, Moscow has been trying more and more often to present its large-scale attacks as 'retaliatory strikes.' As if this is a response to Ukraine's effective and massive attacks on Russian territory.
This thesis is absurd from the very beginning, because it was Russia that started the war. Accordingly, all of Ukraine's actions are a reaction. That is, when Kyiv strikes Russia, it is actually responding to aggression.
Moreover, unlike Russia's strikes on peaceful civilian objects, Ukraine targets oil refineries, military factories, ships, logistical hubs, arsenals, ports, army and FSB headquarters, etc.
This is completely logical: war can never be a 'one-sided game.' If you decide to bomb someone, you must be prepared for them to bomb you back.
Russia, on the other hand, behaves in an extremely infantile way - just like its citizens, who express surprise when explosions and strikes begin on their own territory as well.
Instead of taking responsibility - yes, we started it, we are bombing, so what? - Moscow, like a frightened and confused teenager, tries to present its own strikes as 'responses'… Responses to what?
No special intelligence is needed to engage elementary logic: no one was bombing Russia and no one was preparing to do so until Russia itself started the war.
What will happen next is quite clear: while Russia has been attacking with full force for a long time, using the same 'Oreshnik' for the third time already - Ukraine's strikes will only intensify.
In 2022, Ukraine struck weaker than in 2023; in 2024 - weaker than in 2025; and now it is 2026, when sometimes Kyiv's strikes already surpass Moscow's in terms of the scale of damage inflicted.
War has its own inexorable logic of progression: Ukraine's next strikes, the real retaliatory strikes, will be even more massive and powerful than they were at the beginning of the year.
And yes, Russians should be endlessly grateful to Ukrainians for how they are conducting this war. For example, with the same FP-5 type drones that carry a ton of explosives, striking the civilian population would not be difficult at all. And yes, Ukraine has this capability.
It has the capability, but Kyiv chooses not to take this path. And when the war ends, if I were in the Russians' place, I would express gratitude and respect to Ukrainians precisely for this restraint.
But as long as the war continues, every Russian citizen must clearly understand that strikes from Ukraine will only increase, and there is only one party responsible for all of this - the Kremlin.
These are quite banal and obvious thoughts, but what can we do if Russian society continues to behave infantilely.
The problem is that this infantilism is taking on a bloody form. -RL No.22520

>>22527>>22527Militaristic uniforms sure look like military uniforms. Do Social Security agents from the Nixon-era have a monopoly on kepis? If anything this SS guy's outfit is more similar to a Confederate soldier's uniform (

) because of the buttons instead of you know, a diagonal opening and blocky rank insignias. Are we going to ignore the uniform that the (other) SS initially wore which included kepis? The Imperial Officer uniform doesn't really look like anything specifically historical because of the top which is so nebulous, almost completely incomparable to any military top especially because of its lack of heraldry (which the Nixon SS guy has a lot of with his tassels), absence of buttons, and baffling lack of pockets. It's a short coat with a diagonal opening held together by a belt and the pants are jodhpurs. It's just a generic, understated, imposing bad guy uniform which feels vaguely Nazi because of the cap, the color, and the context of Stah Wah that these are the guys in command of the STORMTROOPERS. It is certainly a lot closer to a mish-mash of German military attire (from WW1 and WW2) than it is to this douchebag.

I'm using this very lightly because of course these kinds of jokes blur together so I think it's barely worthy of condemnation despite my penchant for the level of craft of OLD THING. You just need a large cast with running gags with basic skeleton stories to spice things up or else you're reduced to either The Family Circus or Heathcliff levels- not to to disrespect Heathcliff since it's a cerebral experience. Even Questionable Content and Dumbing of The Ages get this right despite being terrible. There's nowhere near the level of samejoke even if the jokes are usually awful.

>Why contain it?They don't need to be spreading chemtrails to manufacture a crisis. The people are free enough that everything the government wants to do can be justified by the actions of people under the influence of soft power or people that are simply reacting to the world around them. Most astroturfs are extremely easy to recognize, not everything needs to be a conspiracy and so it isn't.
