Reply to unnecessary javascript sn't just a hauty web-design hangup, it's a literal low-level human rights issue, and i'm not joking!!!. (Read this good blog post) by twovests

i wish a lot more people in web dev thought like this person does, i am tired of building frameworks on top of frameworks on top of containers on top of on-demand cloud instances. i feel like a good 75% of what we use the internet for doesn't need that wasteful garbage.

Reply to call of duty like game, except instead of being propaganda for the us armed forces, it's the opposite by twovests

i miss when shooty games weren't about trying to project you into a weird jingoistic fantasy where you're Rambo From Rambo 3 and you're Shooting Realistic Name Brand Firearms at Thousands of Foreign Enemies Who Are Conveniently Not Thought Of As People.

i wish they were still about rocketjumping around in space and playing reverse tag with the quad damage, because that was a lot more fun and challenging to play and also didn't resemble anything a child (or gamer bro with a child's understanding of politics) would mistake for reality.

Reply to it now is 4 days later and I am still pretty devastated :( by toasthaste

it can take quite a lot longer than we might like to get over these kinds of things but i promise that if you feel this way sincerely about this person now then it can and will happen again with someone else, probably when you least expect it. it's okay to grieve and be sad but don't give up hope.
