  • I’ve watched a lot of anime, and Code Geass character designs were the worst I’ve endured.

    Side note: I don’t recommend Code Geass, I think it’s on par with Death Note for the most contrived intellectually-mastabatory power fantasy. If you stop to think about what’s happening you’ll realise none of the characters are making rational choices.





  • First anecdote:

    I’m convinced driving stoned is still a problem (though I understand my experiences may be an outlier);

    My friend used to drive stoned regularly, and while in the car with him he failed to notice traffic lights and stop signs. These are mistakes he didn’t make while sober.

    Caveat: he was an inexperienced driver at the time, so he probably hadn’t developed intuitive driving habits, so being stoned meant he needed to manually assess every action.

    Second anecdote:

    I feel that driving drunk is so bad, not necessarily because of distraction or motor control (though once sufficiently drunk, these are absolutely an issue)

    I feel the most dangerous part about driving drunk is the overconfidence which comes with it. People are much more likely to take risks while drunk. Conversely, people who are stoned are paranoid, so they’re locked in and focused on not looking like they’re driving inebriated.


  • For the sake of brevity, I’m just going to agree that I’m sea-lioning.

    Now, explain how what I’m doing is unethical.

    Do you think it’s unethical because it uses stolen art?

    If so, I don’t think there’s an issue because I’m not publishing anything I generate.

    Do you think it’s unethical because of the electricity usage?

    If so, you could make the argument about any frivilous activity which generates electricity.

    I really don’t know of a compelling reason besides these two which raises a red flag for you.

    I want to know more.

    How long has it been since your coma?

    When you say you were lucid, do you mean you were always aware you were dreaming?

    You say there was no escape, but you must have become fully unconscious at times?

    Did you ever have pleasant dreams?

    How much of your life experience do you think shaped your nightmares?

    Did you have any epiphanies due to the clashing ideas?
