I don’t know that Tim Sweeney is a horrible person, but he’s said some irresponsible things recently.

And I understand that Kirby Puckett became something of a louse after his athletic career ended.

Strong argument for Hobbes’s Leviathan

A communally-constructed Choose-Your-Own-Adventure story or stories, with or without RPG elements.

But it looks like I’mma have to make it myself.

I’m not a fan, though.

Thankfully, I do have a job where I get paid more when I work harder.

I’ll confess, I bought this immediately after seeing this post. Plays alright, a little basic, very simple and easy compared to a more mainline roguelikes. Or maybe “shallow” is a better term, not a lot of strategic depth going on. I feel like I’m missing something.

And as noted elsewhere, there’s no in-game mechanism to save during a run.

I wait tables. I see a hundred faces a day.

Yes, many times.

It depends on how that government is chartered.

In democracies, it’s to enact the will of the people (within the bounds set by human rights, because any government that does not respect human rights is illegitimate).

In representational forms of government, the balance shifts towards the good of the people but is still informed by their will.

In completely non-democratic forms of government, it should be informed entirely by the good of the people but historically has been informed instead by the will and desires of the rulers, typically without even the necessary respect for human rights.

Comparing it to parenting is not a good analogy, because parents normally love their children and are better informed and wiser than them, whereas governments have little reason to love their citizens, and are only rarely better informed or wiser.

I don’t trust democracy, but it’s a good sight better than autocracy. Representative governments do something to curb the worst excesses of both, in my opinion.

Put down a towel and mess around.
