Even after the semi traumatic event I had with ants I like them still

lament acorn

Praying mantis >

toxic relic
#

army ants

neat moat
frail shadow
#

a warrior ant couldn’t overpower like a decent sized beetle

neat moat
#

uh

#

yes they can

frail shadow
#

not any beetle

neat moat
#

It's like their one gimmick

frail shadow
#

what if i was helping out the beetle

#

moral support

neat moat
#

You'd be next

toxic relic
#

if you were helping the beetle then the ants should have help too

frail shadow
#

what if i killed the ants family so it had to leave for the funeral and therefore the beetle won because the ant forfeited

toxic relic
#

thats how they operate anyways

toxic relic
#

also they dont have family units

frail shadow
#

yeah but they’re not going to help the original ant

toxic relic
#

what about the giant wētā

toxic relic
#

cause the ants threatened and will thus send chemical requests for supprt

frail shadow
#

okay id still blast them

neat moat
#

I find it funny how people forget the queen isn't the master of the colony, but a slave to it

toxic relic
#

real

frail shadow
#

id blast the queen too i don’t care

neat moat
#

They'd either find another or die

frail shadow
#

beetle wins no matter what you guys make up

toxic relic
#

wrong

neat moat
#

Cope

#

seethe even

frail shadow
#

my beetle has combat training so

neat moat
#

mald

frail shadow
#

you’re just mad beetles rule and ants drool

neat moat
#

they are incapable of drooling

#

they lack the glands

frail shadow
#

how do you know that, not every single sub species of ant has been discovered

toxic relic
#

we dont

frail shadow
#

maybe one of them can

toxic relic
#

maybe

frail shadow
#

exactly

toxic relic
#

theyd still be able to beat the beetle

neat moat
#

Drooling of the gaps are we?

frail shadow
#

they wouldn’t

#

my beetle has access to military grade weaponry

#

beetle wins

neat moat
#

We have supplied the ants with ICBMs

toxic relic
#

youre the one using made up shit to help the beetle win

#

how about

#

the ants and beetle turn on you castle, then me and ghoti help them blast you

#

mr snakeass as the best schemes

neat moat
#

how the turns table

frail shadow
#

the beetle wouldn’t turn on me i groomed him into who he is

neat moat
#

sir

#

that beetle is 3 months old

toxic relic
#

uh

frail shadow
#

you guys clearly don’t know how beetle years work

graceful dust
#

if u didnt lose the malaria i imagine u would lose the immunity on turning back into a human unless the relevant parts of ur body remain mosquito

#

or non-human ig

toxic relic
#

"erm actually, theyre a 3000 year old god that just looks like a baby" 🤓

#

its not weird finger_wave 🤓

frail shadow
#

that’s the reddit excuse

toxic relic
#

so youre admitting that youre a redditor

#

damn bro taking ls

graceful dust
#

so idk anything abt comics actually does beast boy have human cells? when he transforms does he have animal cells?

toxic relic
#

i have no idea actually

neat moat
#

I feel we are getting off track here a little

toxic relic
#

i need time to think about the science

graceful dust
#

im on the important shit

toxic relic
#

the hypothetical science

neat moat
#

super heros are stupid

frail shadow
#

can beast boy turn into beetles

neat moat
#

it's all magic

half parrot
neat moat
#

the ants are in your walls

frail shadow

me and the ants could co exist peacefully

neat moat

they're eating the paint

the ants are inside your walls

graceful dust
sweet palm
toxic relic
#

not a shapeshifter

frail shadow
#

that’s doodoo

toxic relic
#

so he cannot carry malaria in the first place

neat moat
#

I'm a hard sci fi guy so I will smugly sit upon my thrown of superior fiction

half parrot
graceful dust
toxic relic
#

yes

neat moat
#

there is no escape

toxic relic
#

he will contract the disease instead of being a carrier

graceful dust
#

well that answers that 👏 all in a hard days work

toxic relic
#

and thus wont have the mosquitos immunity nor will be able to spread it

#

since mozzies are just carriers

#

unfortunate

graceful dust
#

yeah no it sucks to suck. truly.

#

ah wait. ha

toxic relic
#

glad we can all come together in the name of science

#

unintentional pun included

heady basin
frail shadow
#

what if he had some other contagious disease and as a mosquito he bit someone

heady basin
#

wait what are we discussing

toxic relic
#

depends on the contagion

remote swan
#

does anyone know why cant i put a bed (build 42) I just picked one up because i wanted to move its location but now i cant put it down as a tile again (I have a hammer so its not it)

toxic relic
#

does it spread via salivia?

graceful dust
frail shadow
toxic relic
#

salavia and blood

#

if beast boy had malaria he wouldnt be contagious

half parrot
frail shadow
#

one ant vs one beetle

neat moat
#

is it ever confirmed in lore that beast boy can catch animal diseases

graceful dust
#

hes always human ig

neat moat
#

I thought he was a

#

actually

#

I never thought about what he even was

graceful dust
#

im alrdy out of my depth what do u want me to say... hes boy

frail shadow
#

he’s boy and dumb

neat moat

HE WASNT BORN GREEN?

toxic relic
#

his parents injected him with serum that turned him green

#

and gave him the morphin powers

graceful dust
#

what the fuck

frail shadow
#

that’s no good

neat moat
#

thats kinda fucked up

toxic relic
graceful dust
#

science keeps turning ppl green

toxic relic
#

they abused him

#

as well

neat moat
#

oh well that's normal

toxic relic
#

"He received a certain amount of abuse from his parents, consequently becoming increasingly reclusive"

#

from the same wiki page

frail shadow
#

what a pussy

graceful dust
#

wait hold on

neat moat
#

I can't type slash s wtf

graceful dust
#

this example is literally what we were just talking abt

quiet tree
#

and then i told him hawk threea

neat moat
#

So the reason he's such a clown is a trauma response?

toxic relic
#

yes i realise this contradicts the previously established lore

frail shadow
#

yeah the whatever disease died inside him because he was monke

toxic relic
#

even tho in other lore it says he cant change his dna

#

conflicting lore

graceful dust
#

but a mosquito would probs not be the solution if he had malaria cos he wouldnt be killing the malaria

frail shadow
#

how could they

graceful dust
#

wtf i cant believe comic books r inconsistent

#

thats so fucked up

neat moat
#

it's like they make it up as they go

graceful dust
narrow rune
neat moat
#

speaking of lore, is it ever established why skynet rebeled. I feel there's more to the story than "self defence"

#

kinda a weak argument

frail shadow
#

probably got bored

#

or maybe it was an AM situation

neat moat
#

it did it for the vine

frail shadow
#

id be pretty upset too

graceful dust
#

it realized that movies need a villain

neat moat
#

Wrong

narrow rune
#

I am a villain

graceful dust

There's a first for everyone

graceful dust

Rolly pollies are a classic

what about ear wigs

graceful dust
#

i havent seen earwigs in like 25 yrs idk

neat moat
#

graceful dust
#

no its been that long since ive lived in a rly rural area

toxic relic
#

they have no childlike sense of exploration smh

toxic relic
#

i forgot america is a concrete jungle

graceful dust
#

ya

#

ive never seen a raccoon either fwiw

toxic relic
#

we have a wild garden with a lot of activity

#

and i live in the city

#

next to a marsh

neat moat
#

Even concreet jungles have areas with life

toxic relic
#

real

graceful dust
#

we have coyotes here. like everywhere else in na

toxic relic
#

the wild hedgehogs scuttle under the deck at night

graceful dust
#

ive seen a lot of coyotes & i used to see a lot of armadillos

neat moat
toxic relic
graceful dust
#

neat moat
#

And yet you haven't seen earwigs

toxic relic
#

do u have natural parks in cities

graceful dust
#

we have a trail

#

it has coyotes on it

toxic relic
#

like pockets of bush cause its too hard to build there

neat moat
#

toxic relic

#

im not like

toxic relic
#

what do you mean by trail

graceful dust

neat moat
#

I see

toxic relic
#

i mean

graceful dust
#

but im not in the suburbs & im not rural

toxic relic
#

im trying to find the words to explain what i mean by park

neat moat
#

I thought cities have to have skyscrapers

graceful dust
#

no they just have to be dense i think

neat moat
#

for example where I live they call it a city. But it is propaganda

#

it is no city

graceful dust
#

im in a city bc theres a fuckload of ppl & businesses in my immediate area

toxic relic
graceful dust
#

there just also happens to be a trail with beavers & coyotes on it

toxic relic

chrome void

In the town where I lived there was something similar, a 40 km trail where I first saw a squirrel and a huge anthill. XD

graceful dust
#

big fan of onomatopoeias here

heavy ivy

ururuurururururururu thumpthumpthumpthump
planked trails are a different breed of travel

anthill you say

graceful dust
toxic relic

all im hearing is the soft sound of snoring

chrome void
neat moat
#

anyone here ever red humanity lost?

toxic relic
#

dude

#

yes.

#

i have the comic

neat moat
#

The writing at the beginning is a bit wonky

#

but I love the spec evo.

toxic relic
#

spec fiction in general is my top genre

neat moat
#

I just wish sci fi writers could actually write characters

toxic relic
#

HAHA

#

its more about the world and LORE

#

but i agree

#

have you read serina?

neat moat
#

If I ever get to the point of writing out the setting, the lore and everything will be laid out, and immediately thrown away for the characters to actually live in the world

neat moat
#

oh right yes I've heard of it

#

again, characters aren't the best. But the world is fascinating

toxic relic
#

hmm

#

can you elaborate as to why you think the characters are lacking?

toxic relic
#

i do agree the "deus ex machina" intervention of the author to continue the world was a huge L for me

#

almost ruined my reading of it

neat moat
#

if it's the setting I remember. There's this odd sense of cultural homoginaity, and the characters from what I remember are rather flat. Very one dimensional, and I feel is a great insult since alien minds sould be complex, like us. But along the fact they should have their own depth and personality quirks.

This is the reason I don't think I'd ever write aliens

#

Humans are hard enough to write, aliens will be impossible

#

We are simply unworthy to even attempt to imagine how one will think and act

toxic relic
#

hmm

#

yeah i agree

#

humans are simply too much like setting concrete

#

i read an interesting piece about speculative exomusicology

#

i think it would be huge undertaking to make an indepth alien world

#

but it would be sick as fuck

dim cloak
#

I'm so glad I've got a Keurig. Otherwise I couldn't make even instant ramen for 1 without a whole-ass pot. Or just a cup of hot chocolate.

neat moat
#

There's too many variables. And too many individual quirks. We inevitability will over simplify, and misconstrue actions.

There's a good reason why it's best for poc characters to be written by, or at least informed by, poc. You can't do that with aliens

#

We can't even do that for non human animals even

#

you know, our cousins

dim cloak
toxic relic
#

this is a huge good take

neat moat
#

Character writing in spec evolution

fleet marten
toxic relic
#

i retract previous statements and change my views

neat moat
#

Yeah

toxic relic
#

tihs was the thing i mentioned

neat moat
#

I dont refuse to wrote alien characters because I don't like aliens. It's because I respect them too much

toxic relic
#

bro is cooking

neat moat
#

I'll just throw list last part out. Has it ever bothered you how monocultured aliens are in media? It's bothered me a lot

toxic relic
#

fuck yes it has

neat moat
#

While the humans are mutli cultural

dim cloak
toxic relic
#

its just one type of dude in blue skin

#

or generic alien numbers 1-5

neat moat
#

I kinda wished star trek has the aliens as genetically altered humans instead. Things would make waaay more sense

#

but thats just me there

toxic relic
#

nah

#

i agree

#

a delicious meal you cooked

neat moat
#

I appreciate the sentiment

toxic relic
#

i couldnt find a gif i liked

#

its supposed to be me eating up the meal

#

i hate the one dimensional way aliens are portrayed in fiction

#

it should be expected that they be as, and actually more, complex than us

#

especially in the cases where aliens 'invade' or 'land' on earth/otherwise come to the humans instead of the other way around

#

how would space faring impact their world cultures? nations? peoples?

#

what is there relationship to other species on their planets

neat moat
#

This is kinda the reason I can't fully get into warhammer 40k. It's a setting designed to be morally simplistic, while I always try to add moral depth

toxic relic
#

valid

neat moat
#

also I am sick of hearing about your herecy. I invoke xeno compatability on your entire species

toxic relic
#

i wouldnt mind "slice of life" spec evo comic with just different people living their lives

Oh and territory is a very western idea. Or at least, not universal

neat moat
#

I'm not sure how hard borders worked for Asian counties

toxic relic
#

or war? or weapons?

neat moat
#

one day

toxic relic
#

not just "alien gun" but what about the war strategies and weapons of different species

#

how they adapted to their environments and used it to further conflicts

toxic relic

clans, peoples, states, empires

You know

Breaking bad is the equivalent of The Office with Millennials but with Gen Z

heavy ivy
# toxic relic not just "alien gun" but what about the war strategies and weapons of different ...

one of my favorite bits of this style thing is in project hail mary (mild spoilers, btw) || the protaganist meets an alien lifeform, who, among other things (such as having a language similar to birds chirping from the human perspective of it) came from a planet much, much larger than earth with an incredibly thick ozone layer and minimal decaying isotopes, which led to their species having no knowledge of the concept of radiation. it ends up affecting the plot but my takeaway is how interesting the starter conditions for life can affect their understanding of the universe ||

toxic relic
#

thats sick

#

shit affects you, its interesting deconstructing that

heavy ivy
#

absolutely

I sentence them to Marie Curie

toxic relic

it takes quite a while for the human guy to explain it too, despite being a post grad who can explain it, the other goober has literally no context for the whole thing

thats a bad thing [reply to ghoti]

dont repeat those horrors

neat moat

im joking

toxic relic

i thought the story would have the equivalent of like critical race studies but with different species

so the guy had some understanding

neat moat

Oh you also want to do micro biology?

space piracy is always cool

toxic relic
#

hmm

#

ill look at it

heavy ivy

the beginning is a little slow but it's written well overall and has a really nice second act

#

real!

toxic relic
#

is there gay

heavy ivy
#

sadly no 😔

toxic relic
#

i always ask

#

damn

#

will still check it out

#

maybe its at the library

heavy ivy
#

it's always a nice addition when there's gay

toxic relic
#

addition?

#

nah

#

its gotta be integral

heavy ivy
#

ooooh true

#

no superficial shit

toxic relic
#

subatomic level gay

monster calls is mostly subtext and more than this doesnt have it integral but

#

heavy ivy

oooh will add them to my book hoard

toxic relic
#

the first one was made into a movie

#

dont watch it

#

its bad

heavy ivy
#

toxic relic
#

and they removed the gay

heavy ivy
#

book movie itis is real, fuckin sucks when bad adaptation

toxic relic

literally, i watched it directly after reading and could tell all the parts they removed

heavy ivy

homophobia is so cringe

i have read gay loner in the apocalypse books tho

neat moat
#

oh, well he kinda gets with the only female character iirc. If im wrong im glad

#

heavy ivy

It was real unique and I liked it for that, but nothing too crazy

tbh if i know a book has an adaptation i dont watch it

heavy ivy

i mean its fine, i guess, generic cheesey action flick but it completely has jack shit to do with the book sob

toxic relic
#

id rather just read it

neat moat
#

the children of gia I only simp for ironically

heavy ivy
#

yeah true!

#

One of the only exceptions was the martian, I saw the movie first and it was really good, and the book was muuuuch better

#

glad i saw it in that order tho lmao

toxic relic
#

book was great

graceful dust
neat moat
#

tbf

#

star man got me in the feels

toxic relic
#

the ratio of bad and good is bad dude

graceful dust
#

the i am legend movie makes no sense to me cos its like they literally didnt even wanna do i am legend

toxic relic
#

too bad for me to consider it

heavy ivy
#

I think WWZ had great potentional for a movie adaptation, scenes like Yonkers for action but also some social commentary in the slower parts and great B plot potential with all the unique little stories

graceful dust
#

the like... was it 2009? one

neat moat
#

Hey the 2009 one was good. Not the same but good. That with the alternate ending is pretty good

graceful dust
#

but its not an adaptation imo

neat moat
#

But I do want an adaptation with the depressing alcoholism of the book

heavy ivy
graceful dust
#

also the first adaptation is on the wikipedia page iirc

neat moat
graceful dust
#

loool

#

i couldnt get thru it

neat moat
#

it's boring yeah

dude talkes like a robot

well everyone back then did

heavy ivy

The protagonist isn't charismatic as a plot point, and that don't lend itself well to movies outside of specific audiences

neat moat

there are movies I can enjoy because I think about them well after the runtime even if the content wasn't super entertaining in the moment

Hello

neat moat
#

hi

earnest stag
#

Are you guys having an issue with AMD for build 42?

heavy ivy
#

it's a documented issue atm

toxic relic
#

argument i had 12 years ago

#

that was my piece

#

that was one of my pieces i should say

frail shadow
#

first resident evil game got me over here poopin my pants

neat moat
# toxic relic

Is this an argument about how the Chinese dialect, also, changes?

#

I wasn't quite following

fathom igloo
#

Sleeeeeeepppppppyyyyy

dire timber
#

slep

toxic relic
#

i didnt cap the argument

#

essentially, the starter inquiry was how a language such tamarian could be taught

#

and someone said it wasnt possible

#

so i corrected them with an irl example

#

with added spite cause i hate the han dynasty

neat moat
#

How could a human language not be taught?

#

isn't all language taught

toxic relic
#

exactly

#

altho in stark trek, tamarian isnt human

#

but its a conlang made by humans

neat moat
#

I'll give them credit, if no surviving records exist then yes, it can't be taught

toxic relic
#

no theres records in the show

neat moat
#

aka the aberhamic gods name is lost to time

toxic relic
#

in fact i think they understimated the universal translator in it

neat moat
toxic relic
#

it could effectively translate the metaphorical language

#

tamarian is a language based on metaphor

#

and that can be translated

#

its been shown in irl languages

#

theres whole fields of study dedicated to it

#

which is why the response was SO FUCKING WRONG

#

nerd man rage

neat moat
#

a language based on metaphor?

toxic relic
#

yes

neat moat
#

Guess they're bad at giving strieght answers

toxic relic
#

hehe

toxic relic
#

#

Somone once asked me what I fear most. I said the death of humanity, they didn't fully sympathize (I get it). But knowing all this progress, all this knowledge, all this work to be erased. And knowing what could have been. It troubles me

#

Oh and also the fact how my ideological framework is playes into that too

toxic relic
#

why so

neat moat
#

why so what

toxic relic
#

why are you troubled

neat moat
#

Loss, on an unfathomable scale. And the death of a better future

#

What keeps me going, is that when I'm gone that there will be something left. Something I can work for still being here

#

and to see that gone. I guess it's like an ant losing it's queen

toxic relic

No future. Only inevitable extintuon
