I feel morally inclined to start another thread here to post, well... random thoughts.

But this time, let's keep it civil, folks. I wasn't there for the whole fiasco that got the other one closed, and I don't really care what happened. Let's just start new and fresh, and play nice and all that happy hoo-rah.



random thought of the hour: I'm writing an excerpt of a fanfic and holy shit things got dark fast. or rather, really violent.

well, in one of my stories, there's a character who =ets her legs annihilated. she gets kneecapped, and gets her ankles destroyed, and by the time all is said and done, she's practically wallowing in blood an injury. Definitely not a savory sight, and not something I had expected to write.

I could never skip a night of sleep.

Guess it depends where you live. Over here it's still quite a novelty thing. We used to only get snow about once every five years and then only about 2 days, but nowadays it seems to be that we get it virtually every year but still just a few days.

I wish I could pull off that shit.

On the subject of gayness- bisexuals are weird because if one settles down with either gender, it's like "wul, you were only PRETENDING to be bisexual! you were always gay/straight/whatever!"

It's like, no. I am still bisexual, even though I've been in a long term relationship with a man. It's not like I'm suddenly straight now.

Vælling
11-30-2014, 08:51 AM
On the subject of gayness

i like where this thread is going

also, didn't you get the memo? you're only allowed to be bisexual as long as you exist in a romantic vacuum. the second you enter a monogamous relationship with anybody of either gender, a little gay demon appears and snatches away your laminated bisexual club card.

Revolver Ocelot
11-30-2014, 08:56 AM
Noooo, I had points on that card. :c

Also, asexuals somehow catch shit for not...wanting sexual relationships????? Like. Why attack someone for not doing...anything?

And then there are people who are like "you don't need to come out as asexual" it's like - yes you do, because it means that you might not be interested in some of the stuff other people are interested in and it's better that people know what to expect before they- y'know, get around to pursuing some kind of relationship with you. It's not a bad thing, but people are fuckin' weird about it.

asexuals catch a very certain kind of shit though. either they just haven't 'met the right person', or they must have undergone some sort of 'trauma' that, i dunno, 'turned' them asexual, or... fuck, who even knows. people are fuckin' weird about it.

Well, obviously, there's no such thing as romantic attachment without sexual attraction. It's an alien concept. Why, the very thought is preposterous.

I actually think parents should give their teenage kids some amounts of alcohol, like a glass of wine with sunday dinner or stuff like that. That way they can get used to it and not suddenly go overboard on it the moment they go away to college. The only problem for me is I never really liked the taste of alcohol.

It's just an issue when people take it to extremes, every week in this country countless teens end up in hospital having their stomachs pumped out or get involved in anti-social behaviour via drunkenness. In this country at least the binge-drinking culture is a massive problem.

Something like that, I suppose. Everybody I've encountered thus far (this is still my first playthrough) has come to despise me, and my approval is abysmal, but I rank number one in military and haven't failed to conquer any of the empires I've taken over with little difficulty.

It really depends on difficultly level, world type, and the factions you're facing. Normally each faction has a particular AI, some are more diplomatic, others are more warlike, and some stay neutral to almost everything. In island maps, where there might only be 1-2 factions per island/continent they tend to be more passive. But when you start to get crowded on the larger continent maps, shit often gets brutal.

But yeah, happiness is vital for Empire building. Luxury resources help with that, as does allying with city states (as they give you luxury resources when allied), buildings, and certain policies. Though it does sound like you've got everything under control! Albeit under an iron fist. ;)

Feeling absolutely hopeless, holding back tears and failing for hours. Hearing news you never want to hear, though your mind had been fearing that for months. Feeling lost, alone, like nothing. Knowing how they felt, how the world's unfair. How you wish you could change it. Then you hear the chime of your phone, how your family is waiting outside for you, how you have to fight back all that emotion, make it seem everything is alright. Sigh. Sigh.

So you think anyone would really survive the 'MAD' Project?

Mutually Assured Destruction? Yeah, most countries without nuclear weapons, or rural communities.

Well the Mission assured Destruction or whatever its called, Kinda aims for everything you know... Íts simply not a Nuke the nukes... but to Nuke everything.

Possibly there always a chance someone would survive... making the world into something like Fallout xD

I'm aware how Mutually Assured Destruction works. It'd start strategically, targetting enemy bases, command and control, manufacturing, infrastructure. Cities would be lower priority, and countries without the capability to strike back would also be lower value targets. But still targets all the same, and the process would repeat itself. I could tell you offhand that at the very least 10-25% of the Australian population would be fine, and 75% of the country would be untouched as well. Much of Canada, the US, China, Russia. All of those would have large areas safe from the destruction.

pretty much.
after you nuked the coasts of America, hitting anything in between would be rather difficult since that's where people are the most spread out.

besides. who the hell would want to bomb Kansas?

Well assuming the blast rates would level most things, and the radiation take is toll on most other things. I think its likely that most of earth would be effected to some extent, and possibly the only places that would be somewhat safe is those spots that's not very much effected by changes to the rest of the world.

We'd probably be seeing something along the lines of a manmade nuclear winter, but those areas not hit would be largely fine. The rest would be similar to a modern day Chernobyl. Besides Nuclear detonations aren't as large as most people think, on a worldwide scale.

Why would you even attempt to attack the Rockies? Destroying infusture is mich more viable, and more costly.

M A D without the nukes would be prima.

Nuclear warfare gives me chills- it's downright evil, I think. The stuff it does to people, animals, the environment. Ugh. I get nightmares about that shit.

I doubt nuclear war will ever happen, we're not nearly stupid enough to do it. Economics is a more powerful force, and more beneficial than any modern conflict.

now you know why in Panem, the Capitol built its city in the Rockies. ;)
otherwise, no, there's really no value to attacking them. better targets to nuke would be LA, Chicago, or The District. In fact, if someone nuked The District, they'd be doing America a huge favor.

Panem, isn't safe from nuclear attack. :/
