Beep bop I’m half Mexican, we definitely meant for each other

Last time I said 🦴r… I got my message beleted… what’s a guy gotta do for the b word pass
What if we are all just hallucinating that you're talking? All at the... same... Time... Hmmm
Bone? As in the things that sootseer digs up?
ya said
early and got deleted too 
My psychiatrist would prob believe ya
the hell is the b word
The man is bringing me down
B is for ball
oh ever mind
If I was to say 🏳️🌈 🦴 I think I would be arrested irl
Gay bone?????
Nah, just read things on Reddit. You'll see what happens to you
How is that an insult
I was thinking more like "rainbone"
its raining bones! 🎶
How concerning
At what point is flirting considered creepy
Like if I call @wild mountain Hot
Would that be creepy ?
Or what if I say, @wild mountain Did it hurt?
Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?
\ban @olive seal 100000000 s for being cringe
First creepy now cringe 😭
I asked my hot girl friend what pick up line she gets the most and apparently everyone uses the did it hurt when you fell from heaven 😭

(Hello GameRant reporter. Please note the above post is a joke bouncing off of Donnie's post)
lmao
Saw what
the GameRant post about the rat 
I did not see that one, no
But GameRant posts about Palworld daily
I'm unsure if it's just a bot that scrapes Reddit posts or if the journalists there just really want to write about Palworld
but if you Google "GameRant Palworld", you will just find an ocean of posts by them
i actually apeard in a few articles due to my comments on reddit posts so its probbly a bot.
damn i didnt make it into the article sad
i had no idea
i dont read news from game journalists
nobody reads game news... do they... 
Sometimes I get important info from just reading their titles tho
gamerant was a bit slow, someone else posted the same thing several hours earlier.
same lol
Like if I wasn’t here that would’ve probably be the way i would know about the rat pall
Damn I better start mewing or whatever it’s called https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTN9vt1yJ/
I gotta rewatch that movie with that filter I think in in love
I’ll be busy for the next hour and half see yall
ew tiktok
slop for the masses by the masses
Yo
Good movie, almost done 10/10 with that filter
They’d be searching for anything that would make for a “hot topic”. Gaming “journalists” (if they merit the title of journalist) are on a wee bit of a tight leash right now.
Honestly they're looking for anything that might be considered newsworthy to make an article on it. A reddit post breaching almost 4k likes in 24 hours about a rat pal for Palworld is something somewhat unique.
Gotta get them clicks and views when there isn't much else to report on really. I don't recall any big gaming events that have happened recently
Bucky was at an event just recently iirc.
PSA, the rat pal idea started in Offtopic
Offtopic kingmakers
they should make an article about us, nobility of Palworld to talk about it
long number string is typing
prepare to warn mods, nvm I scared them
Cynical ass that I am, I can only imagine a lot of bad actors abusing this, like they did steam Greenlight
the current system is being abused too though. you can use alt accounts, download the demo at no cost and leave a review
i think the intention is that reviews by all and reviews by people who actually paid for it are separated, sort of like how reviews by people who got the game free are marked as such
You mean like showing 18+ NSFW games in your "discovery queue"?
I should be able to completely freaking obscure the porn aspect of Steam
Oh nvm there's like 6 different types of obscenity I have to tick
I wonder if this will actually work now lmao, for some reason I had the "community" ticker unmarked but the store one enabled
Shouldn't all 18+ things in steam be an opt in kind of thing instead of an opt out
If you feel the need to hide the games maybe you shouldn’t be playing them
It's more the case of your feed very quickly becomes swamped with low quality garbage, asset flips, and an insane amount of porn-based content
Didn’t it start well before release and then Caos accidentally revived it?
I know we talked about it like a week or two before the voting happened, I literally pointed it out cause caos likes Rats and I was wondering if Palworld had a rat, which it didn't
When steam launched its NSFW stuff we didn't opt in, I never played one of those games, I thought I had blocked it but apparently I blocked community stuff about em instead of the store, which I guess is my fault?
again, I never asked for Steam to go full hub
Idk why I have to opt out of it, I could be a minor
it had been brought up a few times here and there but never gained traction.
caos recently made a comment about how to ask bucky for a rat pal and bucky replied
essentially bucky created an opening and we took full advantage of it =p
All I wanna know is, did Offtopic make it possible, besides Bucky
There was a rat cult before launch. Caos started using an endless collection of rat emoji for months
"make it possible" is a bit of a stretch =p bucky right from the very start only promised to ask. there was never a promise it would happen
And it just kind of naturally coalesced
but seeing the sheer number of people behidn the idea, i think itd be a bit silly to not at least consider it more =p
Yeah
Rat pal is offtopic pal, you can't change my mind
But the idea probably didn’t start here a week ago, lol
we have a mascot now
if it revived here it's all that matters

one could have an idea for months, deciding to go for it is the next step
you’re giving this channel way too much credit
If that wasn't obvious that's the point
Pocketpair Offtopic should be the Singapore of Offtopics
Well known around the verses
revered and appreciated
I guess if you’re saying this is the channel Bucky offered to as the artists to do one then I’ll give you that.
That doesn't have the same kick
My condolences
Good morning
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsSrBvg3tB0 this is what I mean when I mean my youtube recommended are amazing
Alright guys, I am officially in WAY TOO DEEP... I bought a 70 Foot Broward Motor Yacht that needs a ridiculous amount of work. In this video you will see the boat as I bought it, you will get the full tour, you will see me go through all of its systems and start the long repair process. You will also see me take the boat for a sea trial and doc...
Idk why or how this popped into my recommended but I'm thankful for it
Good morning all
Nothing brings you quicker to the realisation that you're not as smart as you thought than when you find yourself having to find tips on youtube for a game you play
I'm going deep with Timberborn, I'm 2 dumb

Acolyte quotes from the strategy game Warcraft III the Frozen Throne
I'd begin interviewi g the dog
I think the poor guy was too confused to know what to do
Most likely xD
I would have lost my composure too, but I would go into interviewing the dog the moment I could regain it.
Think I did that to my brother once 🤔
Story Time
I can't remember what it was about. I just remember blaming him for something and him looking at me wondering why I was blaming him and me having to tell him, "look, why wouldn't I think it was you?"
That's hilarious
"Of course it was you, why would I assume otherwise" is a hell of a rep to get
I don't remember him angry
I'd have probably laughed too to be fair
My sister was angry the time I assumed it was her >.>
Just that "Well I guess I know what rep I have" 😂
Yeah never blame a lady for anything, even if it is their fault
She showed me all the new jewelery she had. I had asked her where it all came from bc I knew full well I wasn't giving ebough allowance for it. She told me "5 finger discount."
So of course I thought she stole the ring when I was told she was in jail 2 days later >.>
She told me she couldn't believe I would think she would steal....
Well yeah because 5 finger discount is stealing why would you assume anything else
You were in a no win situation there buddy
Don't believe it and she gets mad, believe it she gets mad
To spite me, she wouldn't let me help her with the court appearance....
Her friend stole the ring, it was caught on camera. My sister wasn't anywhere near. The ring cost around $15, was costumr jewelry. My sister had to pay $50 for the "diamond ring" she was charged with taking.
My lawyer even snapped at her for not letting him help her bc it went on her record. The "friend" didn't pay a dime bc she claimed my sister did it and made her keep quiet.
I learned about it being on camera.
My sister told me the rest.
Rough times
She was an adult, nothing I could do
True
Morning y'all, hope you guys are doing alright today 

Apparently Binance is now restricting the amount of money people can use to degen gamble
If only I was smarter my positions with the old rules would still be open and I wonder if they would force me to sell it or allow me to have it until it's closed
average joes can only gamble 2 or 3ks no matter how much money they have as collateral
I don't understand most of that o.o
May I offer a shrimp cleaning glass?
Gotta keep the plebs down.
Back then we could gamble with a pure multiplier, good old days where 1k could get you 10k
I'm growin old in the wild west
how are people supposed to become rich quick if we can only gamble x2 of 1k
crypto is a scam
Nerzul has been replaced with a pod person!
Back when I started trading people were 100x or nothing and now we're limited to 2x, who says the government doesn't try to keep us safe?
Nice
https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/002/433/061/39f One for the engineers in the crowd
My newer coworkers all have fancy calculators, I have a notebook I do calculations on >.>
Or I just use the basic calculator on my phone.
I do understand the pic above is a joke, but I am curious of what is being built that .06 degrees is not within tolerance xD
Maybe it's the back piece that's off angle, and they're making a point for using cheap bits of L bracket? 😄
(I know 0.06 is an insanely small number 😉 )
I hear a lot of yards grab scrap metal to make a lot of those brackets instead of waiting for them to be ordered xD
Guess the newbie needs to readjust their bracket!
To be fair, depending what it's being used for, a scrap bracket might be fine if it's a "Quick and dirty" type thing for holding up something that's coming down in a few hours / days, doesn't need to take a load and isn't safety critical
I heard on the news. People are trying to change the world feedback to feedforward because it’s negative. Which I find very stupid.
Wait did the update come out?
not yet
Ahh fair enough. I have been not keeping up to date with any sort of update news so I have no idea when it might come out
maybe update 120GB /j 
I’m just not really playing games for a few weeks and would have been so sad if it came out well I was away from my computer
Honestly though
120GB of terraria
wait wa
again?
before was just for movies and now it's videogames?
This is really funny to watch
LIke you need to get a conspiracy board here
Disney and basically every other big-name movie producer is suing openAI for theft of their work
And now Disney and every big video game company are being harassed by unions over the use of AI

Imagine chillet voice used AI
sag aftra replaced with ai
and that's the story of how the AAA game industry collapsed
at this point i welcome hollywoods death
honestly if I woke up tomorrow morning and that entire part of the state of california just wasn't there, like it ceased to exist, I wouldn't complain
at this point it honestly feels like theyre only striking because they dont know how to write anymore
hide the fact youve got writers block and slacking off by pretending to give a shit about smaller artists
They're striking because they know that the corporate-safe plots and ideas they're being required to write for the shareholders can probably be written by AI
plus AI dont go on strike
Not yet anyway.
"what are your demands?"
"more RAM"
AI don't require "competitive wages" or "benefits"
"fair wages"
paid over 1000 times more than half the staff
So the point of this strike is to fight against the thinking machine?
Where's the emperor when you need it
i think the point is theyve acknowledged theyve lost the ability to write anything good, and rather than quit, they go on strike so they can pretend theyre not just being lazy or creatively bankrupt. the first big strike was literally because they were getting pay cuts following box office disaster after box office disaster
wasn't the first one to get streaming royalties?
i think that was an isolated lawsuit? someone sued disney because they agreed to a cut of the box office sales, but then the movie went primarily streaming meaning they got shafted out of what they thought they were getting
That’s 100% the type of thing they’d pull
I'm pretty sure one of the big writers strikes with actors support was primarily to get streaming revenues to also benefit their contracts
ofc people talked about AI and whatnot
this sounds like you just hate writers now
i hate hollywood writers, yes
like heavens forbid someone that isn't a corporate executive who does nothing all day gets paid an actual salary with benefits anymore
🙄
This was never about anything other than hate.
I'm sorry that the people being forced to write the fever dreams of lazy corporate slobs who just want to sell a product want to be compensated for making garbage on demand
while the ones that are good and work in what they want jump from project to project leaving half baked garbage
what does this line actually mean, i saw it said before in that tweet
Like what happened with Game of thrones and the disney movies
Haters gonna hate
And then there’s the actual hate
Everybody only knows how to hate for updoots anymore.
you seem to be forgetting that we're talking about literal millionares here
not quite millionaires if they're not homeowners
arrogantly assuming I don't have a binary view of the world where everyone is either an actual producer of content who deserves all the money the economy can afford or a corporate suit who deserves a cardboard box full of cheeze-its
those are certainly words
I stand by them
Stand by me?
Stand user?
and if it's ever anyone fighting the shareholders or the CEOs or the executives then they have to be the most morally bankrupt anyone on the planet for me to not automatically side with them
just sounds like you hate CEOs and executives
stands by

I don't hate them as people I hate their role in our social hierarchy
It serves no purpose and its entire existence is deluding itself and others into thinking it does serve a purpose
but this is another discussion
A deeper discussion, not meant for a public chat
All you need to know is
HAHAHA GET REKT DISNEY

🫴
why is that an emoji
O.O
no longer stands by, flees
I’m more concerned with the rat guillotine
I think is my birthday today
tf you mean "i think"
Happy birthday to you then
Yes.
I do
happy cakeday, Brizel
Eat the rich
Only if you're paying for the meal
was more a rebuttal to their earlier point of implying my argument is invalid because i "just hate writers"

Fair, I just wanted to add in a snarky comment
I don't like debates
fair =p

as long as both sides are respectful, theyre good entertainment
the problem is when it escalates into an argument, fight or mud slinging
Lovander mud fight? 
That's the thing, I just can't stay respectful in a debate, so I try my best to just avoid em
I don't wanna be in bad terms with anyone
When you see them escalate, picture them as one of those bad lovey dovey soap operas as you read. Makes the argument hilarious.
cat
Neither can I not because I mud sling but because I'm narrowminded and dense. My demeanor also makes me appear sarcastic and lots of people respond badly to it which causes arguments to go south lol
so roundy
Long ago, back when the tv would go out and do this, I would pretend to be watching a hidden show that only I could see >.>
I would panic, laugh, get heated, tell the made up characters I was rooting for them or not to do things. I would always do this around my cousins and my siblings (they are all much younger than me xD). At first, they all would tell me I was messing with them, there was nothing on the tv. After a while, they started believing I could actually see a show and would start asking me for updates on the characters....
It would have been hilarious if I remembered half the characters or stories I created xD But they would come up to me asking if it was a continuation of that one show and I would have to try hard to remember what I had created to not break the joke xD.
It's a toss-up of what I'll see whenever I open up this chat to be honest 💀
First words I'm greeted with were "Lovander mud fight?"
im just thankful its not bad AI generated rap lyrics

You could just say rap lyrics. They don't gotta be AI generated to be bad 😂
I'd rather see a cake fight 
Cake is too expensive to make 
They're for my katresses right now to breed a war kitty
Just get a better plantation base and you can make em by the hundreds
Recently swapped my vixys out for mozzarinas cuz I need more milk
My plantation base is boomin
My honey, egg, and milk makers are nocturnal.... They just make stuff... Forever
I haven't actually encountered that many pals with the nocturnal trait. Once done breeding my war kitty, I'm gonna start looking for them to get more cake for them to work, to earn the right to work, to earn the right to work
Work work
Accurate representation
I hate working
My base is still low lvl, I just have a killimari on night time pick up.
My tombat is on rock duty, otherwise I believe he picks up too.
Justice for tombat. Severely underrated early mining pal
Morning azzy
A friend and I played several hours of DRG last night and spent most of one mission discussing the sorry state of game development and how SBI ruins everything. He got the achievement for staying in a mission for an hour or longer 😂
😂
Cleanest part of NYC

I'm just glad that he and cattiva are not having the same issues for me as they did when I first started xD.
And they were me issues, not game issues lol.
Both of them were COMPLETELY unusable for me. Their sanity kept dropping and they were always miserable, they never did anything.
I've had the same issues before certain updates and I'm like "bruh, I'm not driving you that hard. Do you not know how to take breaks?"
They do, that is all they do and it stresses them out xD
I've had the same issues with jormie ignis because bro is sentenced to fire, that is all he does, and for whatever reason, he also doesn't know how to take breaks
I think I made a mistake breeding "diet lover" into my penkings lmao
They don't need to eat so they just work until.... They end up like me 😭😂
Diet lover is the one that makes them not need food as often right?
Diet lover is honestly not as good as it sounds, since it tends to have direct impact on sanity if they don't eat sanity-restoring foods
I realized that after my 30th work bred penking
I only had issues with that when I had lower quality food. They only seem to eat until their food hits a certain fullness and if the food quality is low, the sanity doesn't get a boost up bc they are eating less.
Diet lover is probably better on the field but then you want other traits out there anyway.
cause once your base is established you’re likely not gonna run out of food unless you’re away from the base.
I've started using pizza more instead of jam buns and it seems to help a bit
I use jam buns on the field cause they last an hour
My new save, I just made it to jam buns, but I need to start a wheat farm lol
cuuute

PirateSoftware got a noodle
He's been named, not naming, because he's talking in pasta tense
does someone knows if the pal world collection on ds ends or not?
Oh, maybe they mean Discord. Never seen it called ds before
Yeah idk it should have ended by now.
Pal world collection?
thats a thing?
I would take a tsar bomba for Spaghetti

Hola everyone I'm new here!

Hello 👋
If you all need any kind of help ping as much as you want moderated nickname, he would gladly help ya
Thank you I gladly reach out if needed!~
im ok, just the usual struggles, how about ya?
also welcom High5ghost!
I got some special sandwiches.

I got coronation mustard and chicken slices.
Rat beef sandwich
n o
😭
Idk, rats are less prehistoric than avians and gators and stuff.
Mmmmmmmm
Does it change when it becomes known?
Prob I mean Lizard meat tastes like chicken but we call it lizard meat 🍖
Crocodile meat oddly has a sweet taste flavor
Does anyone know how to solve the dedicated server problem with "Game version is v0.3.3.55731"?
Don't have access
Alright thanks
Too warm today
Take a shower
i kinda did
Sweating isn't a shower
I bet mods here hardly ever shower
I literally just took one lmao
This was written by a league of legends player
Leo AI
okay THAT'S funny
average overwatch 2 player
Well you the exception, you were one of us not long ago
I think it's been less than a year lol
I was told mods give the green name, can I have mine?
This is incredibly dependant on your job and personal .. bioflora.
There's people I've known who daily pushes through a carwash can't help them
You were told a lie
The CM's do that, and I don't know when they do it, people just turn green sometimes
I love that
Oh 😥
air of mystery
is it just me or has the palworld stuff been in the shop longer than it was supposed to
by my math it should be gone either today or tomorrow
Every day, for every server member, they toss a coin and if it's heads they get a mute for 30 minutes, if it's tails they get entered into a lottery where they get green status.
This lottery means you are selected from thousands, and you then enter the last coin toss and either get Green status or a 6 month ban
Cm is Channel master?
Community Manager
Lol Channel Master
CentiMeter 🐀
Like a Dungeon Master
hmm
So who is a channel master here?
I hereby nominate myself for Channel Master and of the Universe
Cheese Maker
Asking about it will honestly mean you're incredibly unlikely to gain it, it's awarded by the CM for long term membership, positive and helpful comments, and no infractions on your account such as mutes, ect.
Or a coin toss, as above. I dunno
I don’t have mutes just warnings 😎
That's still an infraction 😄
Lord @hearty sonnet is that true ?🥺
DiscordRat
#pocketpair-announcements message
Yeah pretty much, although Bucky may not be tracking those so you could still get Regular status, maybe
@olive seal See this post
I don’t have warnings Bucky
Maybe if we say his name again he'll appear
Just read the community post & don't ask for it, be cool & behave and you may get it eventually
It's there as a sort of reward for being awesome on this server
Being active in other channels other than this one usually helps too
Emphasis on may, just like you may find someone at the foot of your bed, staring at you whilst you sleep tonight
If it’s Bucky I’ll let him
Will do thank you

oh my goddd i got two dm advertiser scams today bro 😭
ya get used to it
Name and Shame so they can be summarily executed
Discord moment
Mods can't set them on fire if they don't know who they are
Not from here but I get them basically either every day, or every 2 days. I am a ✨ magnet ✨
I always get Chinese text messages from 30+ year old ladies that stop texting me once they know I’m 24
It has happened 3 different times already
holy
Im a lady magnet yall 😎
I love that band
Sister of a Donkey
everyone gets infractions, even mods. its really down to how serious or regular they are
Them and Disturbed have no bad songs really, maybe a few
Shell knight you have infractions too?????
The day I became a mod, I was muted by the auto-mod for saying something by accident/out of ignorance lmao
I can’t listen to them no more cuz im supposed to only listen to happy music 😭
ive been automodded for discussing my condition .w.;;
What condition?
clearly i cant say it lmao
What did you say??
F that listen to whatever you want to
"Well shit I became a mod!" System has muted you for 30 minutes: Language use
I won't say it but I basically learned a new bad word that day
i think i was muted once by auto-mod 
Yall too nice 🥺
I mean they kinda right, it does affect my mood a bit
I got a boot from an IRC chat for saying a variant of the word giggling, because of what's known as the Scunthorpe problem, where a bad word is mixed in part of a legit word
It was my psychologist and psychiatrist whom ordered me to stop 😭
I sat confused as fuck until I realised 😄
ah yes, sni-[banned]
We have auto mods here?
I would suggest talking with your therapist about that
yes
As in this server I mean
Every server has automoderation if it's got any braincells, to catch .. distasteful content before it gets posted
fun fact, i spent most of my life in scunthorpe and i can confirm it was a real problem and i got banned/blocked form creating accounts very often
i got hit by auto-mod when i typed everyone with a fake ping
it triggered it anyway
You know life's good when an entire IT problem gets named after your city 😄
Town* but yea =p
North Lincolnshire actually lacks any cities. its a very market-town constituency
we have a capital town
I always get confused between the Town / city definition and splits
there used to be a rule about whether it had a church or not, but eventually it kinda broke down until it became literally "whatever the monarch says"
So if it’s a town we can say it, okay
theres a few towns with rude names, especially in england for whatever reason, but im scared to list them here cause it might actually trigger the automod
Yeah, the filters aren't very smart, even in modern days to be honest
"encouraging others to get infractions huh?"
delays your green name status by a month
😭
btw Kit. your pfp is your oc or something?
cant remember if i asked before
But shell knight is here he is allowing it 😭
Shell didnt said anything about it 😐
Exactly therefore it’s allowed to
its a custom sprite made by combining two characters into one, then recolouring it. i made it like 10+ years ago and used it as my pfp and just never bothered to change it.

How come you don’t use your ocs as profile pics caos
thats my oc in my pfp
Oh I thought it was stolen from the internet 🛜
why
wtf..
ill be honest, telling an artist their work could pass for AI art is kinda insulting ngl =p
it is
It means that it soo good that it looks ai made. not trying to insult you im trying to compliment you 😭😭
oh god me and my friend had to face a hacker on a game -_-
idk why ya think "your art looks like made by ai" is a compliment, but im not going to debate about it or it might spawn annoying people
It depends on your perspective of AI art, and a lot of artists gave .. disfavorable opinions to be polite
In my mind ai make random art perfectly so for me to call it ai looking art is me saying that it looks really professional and well made. I apologize tho.
I’m just gonna shut up 😭
good call
A lot of artists feel their content is being ripped off and emulated by the AI generators, so would take offence at their own content being classed as "AI quality", especially given a lot of it us just prompt manipulations rather than actual artistic intent.. but yeah it's a hot, volatile topic
Im saying it’s an amazing piece of art, there .
simply put, the common consensus is that it is an AI that has to "pass" for human art, not the other way around.
so long as AI isnt used to do bad things....
Just explaining it for you so you understand why people may take offence so you know how to avoid any misunderstanding in the future
Too late
too late

Sorry for not knowing, I thought it was the other way around, I apologize
No harm intended, no foul, don't beat yourself up about it
Caos seems mad at me tho 🥺
I'm sure it'll be fine, Caos was just hurt by the implication but I'm sure understands you don't mean malice, right?
I don’t, no. I meant to give a compliment 🥺
simple question; Did you learn from this experience?
Yes I did 😭
then mistakes are fine. you dont know everything, noone does. so making mistakes and learning from them is natural
if you make a mistake but refuse to learn form it and keep making it, then it becomes a problem
I like both arts but I don’t have a dog in this discussion
Picture with colors I like lol
I’m not an artist but I learned something new today 😅
It’s hard to remember which memes I got from where.
if it helps, ive seen that one posted here before =p
More rat!
ratto



we're the rats
Factorio rat
Mad rat production. When rat cynic 😤
Factorio
The OG!
gib ref
i shaw try it too
Will send ref here in a secc
@frozen bluff he just got 335 to get a jetragon 
Painful
This dude needs to be beat up
With hammers, preferably 🔨
We have the name and the type but do we have any art reference?
What if they give us a giant dragon with a head of a rat and call it a rat?
I feel sorry for the parents of his viewers 😔
"You spent $335 on WHAT"
I'm starting to think they can't be children. What child has 300 dollars. These have to be adults
I revert then to the statement I made that rich people are too stupid to have the money they do lmao
Ummm wtf…..
Can I shill a cartoon me and my friend made that isn't palworld related?
It's awesome
Some people need to put some effort in, and not spend their way for easy street.
You're new to the situation so let me catch you up
Basically I found a palworld streamer who is basically scamming his audience and he has a thing where if you donate money it gets him stuff in game
They are charging 25 bucks for 25 normal pal spheres
200 dollars for 10 ledgendary palspheres
40 dollars for 100 AR bullets or 20 rpg ammo
That’s pretty sad
250 dollars for a random lucky pal
And 335 to give them any pal in the game
Oh yeah and 90 dollars for a skill fruit
Most streamers are happy just to have their audience enjoy what they’re doing.
For a streamer, that’s pretty damn low and lazy.
Yeah the whole thing ticks me off for real. I already have a real low amount of respect for Minecraft YouTubers. This made it lower 😂
Using fame and influence to pave your way to a comfortable life is about as disconnected as it gets
I'm sorry the entertainment is paying for the streamer to SUFFER
Depends, I mean, the way that’s set up, it’s as predatory as it can get.
5 dollars = 1 level 40 tocotoco with implode
I mean, I got myself 3x alpha Anubis, at no cost to anyone else, the hard way.
(And I thought Anubis would have me for lunch the first time, but then again, the last time I did tango with Anubis, there were 3 of them 😆)
Yeah but it'd be funnier if someone paid $5 to force you to stand still for 10 seconds in the middle of the fight
Nuzlocke? I’ll pay you 5 bucks to stand in the middle of a 3x pal numbers spawn of Tokotoko, and not do anything other than stand there.
3x spawns can get preeeeeety funky when it comes to Tokotoko and beeguardes.
Up to 26-30 in one grouping 😆
It’s like fireworks.
I just got these swimming goggles and it came with this little card thing, and it's so weird
How does that even work
crowd control streams can be fun if done right. for example, trying to speedrun palworld, but viewers can pay a dollar to spawn a tocotoco horde around you. CCs are usually done for charity though
Oh god people paying to have random aggressive wild pals spawn around me while I’m doing base work
Sounds fun but chaotic and awful at the Same time
I’ll be like dammit
I’m just trying to build stuff here and you guys keep distracting me
No they are paying to give the streamer free stuff
yeah I'm saying they're doing it backwards
They got it all confused somehow
baffling that anybody wants to pay you money for you to win like I can go and win for free myself any time
If you're a viewer of a stream with monetization the name of the game is pay to LOSE
or I guess a better description is Pay To Pain
Still I ain't paying 300 dollars to do nothing in the game
This absolute CLOWN got it wrong
subnote I think you're also supposed to make it like a donation drive like the microtransactions are actually for charity or something
But that might just be inferoplus being based
I mean paying 300 for a bunch of tocotoco to come at the player at the most inconvenient time for the player seems funny
It’s not something I would pay but for the people that just wanna cause chaos go for it
I mean it's definitely better entertainment value because like
the point of watching someone stream a game is to watch them grapple with its challenges
So adding more challenge = more entertainment
Taking away challenge by giving items = less entertainment
This is why watching Elden Ring and other soulsborne games is funny af
Yeah that's why you don't usually see "regular pokemon" as a streaming topic they're always doing a challenge of some kind
Because most people who are going to stream are probably good enough at pokemon that it will pose no significant challenge
Pay a streamer to have to fight a horde of lovanders every time they turn around lmao
holy shit I've almost been awake for 24 hours
Go for the world Record!
naw I'll pass out. or away. or other.
Well don’t pass away that’s no fun who will take care of your pals
24 hours is nothing
That’s rookie numbers
When I was younger i would not sleep for 24+hours, and drink multiple (at least two) monsters . I would feel euphoric, and relaxed but unable to sleep.
I wasn’t planning on living long and I do regret it now but oh well
I miss monsters, now im craving one 😭
Let's play a game. How sus do you guys think I am? in a scale from 1/100
On grad night I had 5-6 monsters, supposedly 4 can kill ya. It wasn’t a fun experience.
Really sus
I wish this was the stupidest thing I did younger but I did more horribly bad decisions 😭 and now im paying for it.
At least you can tell your grand kids / nephews whatsoever of your young and dumb experiences so you now seem old and wise
If I make it/have kids yeah


that's not a number tho

What was we talking about
were

also, I don't know, I just wanted some interaction to not feel alone
Lmao your never alone when you have pals
O.o
o.O
I need a number between 20 and 80
19
81
I'll roll it >.>
37
That's better than what was rolled, I'll put that lol
Watch What the hell is even happening (volume warning) and millions of other Roblox videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
You're allowed to listen to anything you want
He came out as a child lover
personally I don't like Drake, but that's the beauty of likes. I don't have to enforce my own likes onto yours, and you don't have to follow what other people say or don't say to listen to
Feels wrong yet good music 😭
I don't keep up with twitter or whatever derranged thing happens in the US ^^'
Based on your reaction I probably shouldn’t
idk, don't let me stop you though. Thing is, do you listen it for Drake and his beliefs, or for the music?
Just the music, brings me good memories
admitedly, if it makes you feel weird, then don't. It's as simple as that
Ugh I hate being politically correct sometimes, I’ll listen to something else ig
Like, personally, if it happened with an artist I liked, I wouldn't listen to more new releases, but I would ocassionally listen to the old stuff
But I wouldn't know
I've never been faced with that problem. I simply don't listen to people who might go ballistic and controversial... like some mainstream "rappers"
I mean to be fair it seems every week a new famous person comes out as loving kids
Like that Disney writer who was catched but instead of getting arrested the YouTuber Lost partnerships
Or Chris from Mr beast 😭
child molester is probably more appropriate.
I'm a teacher, and I love the youth, as in, I respect them and I want them to grow to out-do what we've done. They are the future.
that one was kinda coming from a long while tho, his "old" stuff was super wrong, borderline disgusting. I never liked him/now her to begin with
Money and power can get you out of a lot of things e.e
I always view it as this: I can like something created by a person and still not agree with or like the person.
Here a totally derranged old asshole dodged prison because he paid around 200k usd in fines. He abused of 3 underage girls. Spoiler alert, he was a politician and he was president of a far-right party
Bc if I stop playing, viewing, listening to, etc things bc of what people say or do, there wouldn't be anything left for me to enjoy.
Well yeah but i didn’t want to break any rules lol
True that, but I won't get into specifics of that because it gets political
I get that, but I'm a person who usually calls things as they are. I don't want to sugarcoat something like that. It shouldn't be sugarcoated. It shouldn't be dismissed
That's how you lower its profile to something less, when it's something horrible
Even famous twitch streamers like dr disrespect 😭
Seems everyone likes kids now a days 🤢
Being online has made me realize how little I care about content creators o.O
Never watched him. Then again, I don't watch twitch streamers. I find the whole streamer genre very redundant. If I like a game, then I'm gonna play it. It's super braindead to watch somebody ELSE playing it when you could be doing it. ||This is my own personal opinion, don't get upset if you like watching twitch streamers. That's valid, I personally simply don't like it||
A lot of people are getting caught for loving children a little to much especially from one certain group but it is what it is the world is cruel and sick
let's not talk about any groups
it's the people at fault, not the group they belong or feel identified with. Like all generalizations, it's a poor representation of what it really is.
I want to pretend to be offended by the stuff b4 the spoilered bit, but I am too tired xD
Right….
||you're two tired||
I don’t watch stream but I know a bit about them, my girl friend is a streamer so I have to pretend I care
was about to ask you to explain.... This has proven I should go to bed x.x
Hot girl - friend
Time to stream snipe
Really hot
Not that it matters since she wayyyyyyy out of league and apparently her best friends always fall in love with her so I had to promise I wouldn’t 😭. Not that anyone cares 😅
Why can't you care that she enjoys it? You don't have to care about streaming, but you can care that she enjoys it. Pretending to care doesn't seem healthy.
I just learned there is a country called tuvalu and I thought it was some word in French
Well I try to watch her when she streams as a good friend would but honestly I don’t like twitch in general
It sounds like a French word
I think you should come out clean and put things in order. It seems you're on a slippery slope to a one-sided romantic pedestal which WILL end poorly.
Like your saying bye
Tuvalu
It’s like , i would go watch a chess competition you in but I won’t necessarily enjoy it 😭
Don't watch, explain to her you don't have an interest in streams at all. You are dating her, you have an interest in her, have her tell you about her streams.
No no , she hot and that’s it . I’m happy with bragging rights that I’m a good friend 😎
I’m not lol I wish
She a friend 😅
Oh, I thought you said girl friend, not friend that is a girl
My bad lol, if she was my girlfriend I’d probably be streaming as well honestly 😭
Yes I’m that kind low self esteem guy 😭
She could probably be your girlfriend if you started streaming with her
Don’t say that cuz i would probably become a streamer just bc of that 😭😭
I think you need to start with some honesty first
Guys , I know if I let her know I would 100% date her my friendship with her would end. I am happy as things are rn so it oki
I’m not date able 😭 and have lots of mental diagnosed problems
I meant honesty about hating watchign streams
Ahh that’s just me supporting a friend that’s all
That would cause trust issues with me personally.
Like you wouldn’t go see your friend competing in a sport you find boring????
Every now and then, but I would tell them I hate going
There is never anything wrong with being honest
I can’t be that honest , I would just sit through it and pretend I’m happy to be there 😅
a truth that hurts, hurts for a little. A lie that hurts can cause trauma
Do you hang out with her as friends? Like, go out, play games, etc etc?
Someone who would lie to me about something so trivial cannot be trusted with anything important.
Because if that answer is no, then you're in a real pickle. You might be enticed with the idea of her, not her as a person. That is dangerous.
this. The devil is always in the details
I get asked often about how I would answer the "do these pants make my butt look big" question and people stare at me strangly when I say "honestly"
I'm the reason why people around me stopped fishing for compliments at university lol
We play games, watch movies and anime’s
At the same time, people didn't avoid me either. When somebody looked genuinely good, I told them. I also don't really have a preference with gender, so I wouldn't reserve compliments to just women, friends who were men also received them
more the reason to be truthful then, she'll understand ^^
So I can tell her that I would rather stare at a painted wall dry for three hours than being at her streams, and she will be oki????
There's a game for that
You can be truthful without being hurtful ^^
We're suggesting to tell the truth. Now, the way you do that it's on you
Either way, you can't expect us to know how to talk to your friend. It is your friend after all
There’s a game where you can watch paint dry 
I’ll think about it, not like she streams daily anyway
Yeah, this chat showed it to me xD
I want that game
Opinion: if you were going to give a business man a surivival skill, what would you call it and what would it entail? (Make it simple please lol)
A city survival skill or like an island in the middle of nowhere skill?
Fishing
I laughed at that more than I should have :p
Cuz if it’s a city survival thing then get your accounting right and you’ll do fine in any company
Well it’s probably only of the one few survival lessons that will actually help as far as saving your life and not maintaining it
If it’s a island in the middle of nowhere, train monkeys to take care of your coconuts and start selling them at outrageous prices since no one else will have so many coconuts 🌴
And terrorize the island with your army of monkeys
And ask for rents
I almost gave him somethinf close to fishing. Decided to give him a navigation skill instead lol
Navigation is good
In fact give them ak 47s and let them take control of everything
And kidnap the old people and kids for ransom
Oki I’m done sorry
I feel like general knowledge of wood working could help a lot
Hmm
I could see it
Depends on the situation but i feel like for the most part that would help you maintain like using wood to make a hut to live in or making tools from but you could build a boat so
Plus is fishing really a skill you need to catch a fish? I’ve seen people trap fishes with nothing but a pointy rock 🪨
Plus how hard can be to make a fishing rod
See? I feel like wood working is better unless you have no trees at all lol
Teach a man to fish in the desert
I have realized this was a horrible question without further context lol
You could probably eat scorpions there
Just don’t eat the poisonous part
I would say snakes as well but i feel like they easily outmaneuver us and eat us
Like what is a scorpion sting against my thick skinny jeans???
I heard some camels don’t carry as many parasites and are safe to eat as well
Thick skinny jeans 


on the other side , streamers open the gateway to test games you have interest in or introduce games.
that's a valid point
Good morning everyone, hope you all have a good morning/afternoon or sleep when you turn in 💖🥰
hello

Never seen you in my life before but yeah 7

HOLY SHIT
Your pfp matches that sentence perfectly 😆
They should make Cattiva ones
damn
I’d buy out the whole store if they did
Just so I could set them on fire and post here
no one can you need to do some magic with like copy and pasting links or whatever
"Doctors said Matt Dawson's injury would take four to six months to recover, meaning he would have to miss this summer's games. Or, he could have his finger amputated and make it to the competition. Dawson chose the latter."
That's nuts.
hi
For those of us who have no context as to what you were talking about
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckmg7ngkgjeo
Matt Dawson badly broke a digit on his right hand during team training in Perth two weeks ago, and recovery from surgery to repair it would have taken months.
So, the 30-year-old decided to have the finger removed from the knuckle up in order to take part in his third Games, shocking his team-mates and coach.
He will take to the field with the Kookaburras as they face Argentina on Saturday, just 16 days after he was injured.
Dawson has told media the break was so bad that he passed out when he saw his finger in the changing room. He thought his Olympic dream was over.
He urgently consulted a plastic surgeon who said that even with surgery to repair the finger - and the long recovery time - it may not regain full function. But if it was amputated, he could be back playing in 10 days.
Despite being warned by his wife not to do anything "rash", Dawson says he made his "informed" decision that same afternoon.
"you can't play with a broken finger"
"what broken finger?"
STRAYA mate 😆
None of this Pansy arse “take months to recover” crap, get it fixed the quickest way to get back into the game 😆
"Informed decision"
"Uh yeah I wanna play, screw recovery"
Giving a new meaning to the costing a finger sayin', bringin it back
oh well apparently in english it's not accepted as an idiom, I guess you guys didn't use fingers as payment as much as we did in medieval times
It's not a familar one I have to admit, though we do use "Giving the finger" along the lines of swearing at someone, also known as "flipping the bird" sticking one finger up at someone
idk why to me it sounds better in english than it does in spanish but it's a spanish idiom
my brain is wired funny like that
To be fair it's probably because you understand the context so it does sound a little more intimidating for you 😄
in English we have "costs an arm and a leg" which is probably more extreme lol
Morning

It's effective
it's probably the most effective one I've done, it connects so many important things at the perfect spot, went from red/orange distance to beautiful green

I've watched playthrough and think it's neat, I don't own it myself though
it has some huge sandbox depth potential
your potential to alter the map at your will feels so addicting
makes planning an engineer wet dream
Explains Real Civil Engineer's obsession with it then 😄
indeed, it really challenges you at every turn
Hello Nerzul, Myles
Howdy
how dee
is it possible to feed an AI footage of Zidanes last minutes of his football career and splice it with his footage at the Olympic inauguration giving Nadal the torch.
And get footage of Zidane head smashing Nadal
I was disgusted by the Olympics opening this year
Probably I'd imagine
I'm looking for investors to make it possible for the memes
wae
it was bad… if ya haven’t seen it watch it
I saw some of it through the water drops on the lenses
I honestly joked at how much it looked like a giant pagan ritual of sorts
Honestly i wouldn’t be surprised if that was the whole point
I was having a hard time finding a relation to anything Olympics related
everything was so ritualistic
They even showed a war torn lady liberty statue
Now that’s the least controversial but like why
Just seemed like a dig at the us
Debauchery was the main topic and it was intended I think
The French aren't exactly renowned for their multiculturalism and tolerance shall we say
Them taking stabs at everything at this wouldn't suprise me at all
With the mockery of the last supper and the pale horse thats known for one signs of the apocalypse
We got to see a day in the Bohemian grove
Like there was no need for that … the Olympics is made for sports and nothing else keep the ceremonies sports related
Principles of the Olympics.
- Debauchery
I was gonna watch the Olympics but after that i just can’t
Several years ago I went through Charles De Gaul airport once with my wife, who has a USA passport.
The French border agents separated the queue to EU and USA citizens, and subjected the USA Citizens to extra baggage screening.
They were not happy when I refused to leave my wife and I stood and strictly observed the bag search.. "Oh you can go through sir" - No, I'll be waiting right here keeping an eye on this bullshit, thank you.
Obviously was gonna pull for the us even as bad as it is now it’s still home to me
Ever since Beijing 2022, I can't take the 'lympics seriously enough.
I was honestly surprised they pulled up Zidane for the first torchpass
Zidane. Really. Guys.
Ah yes, the headbutt guy.
That should be a policy for people that fly solo but not families
Families should be searched together
Make having families a real pain .... again.
What bit? Seperating people boarding a plane by country?
Yeah, they didn't do anything to my carry on bags, but every single person who was seperated out was on a USA passport
Why tho
Fuck this, I'll be going to France/Spain/Netherlands via Eurostar and boat.
They also have smoking .. rooms? Chambers? right in the middle of the airport
Idk actually I lost my train of thought
The glass was incredibly yellow and tar-stained
in our airport our international terminal is the only one without a smoking area 🙂
not that the airport has none, it's just the international terminal
Smoking areas need to be outside
Nice, so have all the smokers be immensely irritable on the long flights
If that won't put a vaper off moving onto smoking, I don't know what will.
"outside" tends to be a balcony with a glass/plastic panel
Hmm
Maybe segreggate the smokers from the non-smokers.
Idk I haven’t been to many airports
Same for me. I hate airports and airliners. The experience is just painful, especially for short haul flights.
https://l450v.alamy.com/450v/drx1ec/smoking-area-roissy-charles-de-gaulle-airport-paris-france-drx1ec.jpg Here, but the glass was absolutely not that clean when I was there
I mean I don’t hate airports I think it’s kinda cool personally i just don’t travel a lot to have to use one
Security theatre, missing the flight because of missing check-in and the high accident per journey rate. No thanks, I would go for other options when available.
Yeah, the security theater bit annoys me more than anything else to be honest
Playing devils advocate, that security makes it less of a target nowadays
"We're worried about binary explosives, so everyone empty your bottles into this shared container right next to the security screening area where everyone's clustered up and an easy target"
compared to other means of mass transportation
I'd only prefer to fly if the destination is comprable to crossing an ocean or longer.
I wouldn't get on a ship for instance
Airliners killed the ocean liner.
I would probably opt to fly if it tools more than 24 hours to drive to my destination
I'd say more the "Everything has to be fast and now" killed ocean liners, people don't have the holiday time to spend several days travelling to a destination
it really isn't a peaceful journey either
Nor's plane travel 😉
Kid screaming intensely
These days it feels like "Torture for 18ish hours or torture for several days"
to cross the atlantic for instance, I'd take a kid screaming for 8 hours to rough seas for days
Funny enough, it is easy to cross a country the size of France in hours via rail these days.
Ocean liners are similar looking, but totally different beasts compared to today's floating casinos.
One reason why the US will never catch up to the proper civilized nations.
the US needs more Trains and Boats, true enough
We used to have trains a lot
Their social attitude and political culture also sucks. Politics there should be more elitist.
I mean we still use them but mainly for commercial use
Not just accepting the views of some undereducated peasants and village idiots.
After all, there is a reason why most peasant uprisings failed.
Honestly, for a country the size of the USA, they could do with express / direct trains more than the general trains we have here in the UK.
Need to go back to these trains
unfair, there's many successful ones
Often spearheaded and led by the upper-middle sections of the society though.
usually the more transversal it is the better
Steam is outdated and belongs to the landfill of history.
More like electric and fuel-cell multiple units.
I would say most military operations are not led by the grunts but the officers soo kinda same thing
Middle class is the officers and the peasants is the grunts
Then again, a power station; most notably the nuclear power plant is a giant stationary steam engine.
One that is attached to an AC current generator.
pretty much both provide invaluable insight into aspects of life
My urge to subvert this into a conversation about the Hansa intensifies

One reason why I despise populists and see them as a lesser breed.
Nothing but a bunch of peasants who have no fucking clue what they're doing and only serve to cause more trouble.
''We have had enough of experts''. Well I think you need them but since they don't appreciate experts, it gives me a licence to charge them an arm and a leg for even the simplest of tasks.
If something makes me wanna travel around and know more is the Hansa, if one day I come back to life from a lifechanging experience I'm going for it
Technically every step you take is a life changing event
That's it, I'm creating a youtube channel and financing my travel and recording expenses

to be fair it is a very interesting organization, people should be aware to what extent the people had a voice and the structures of society evolved through them
we might not have worker rights as we know them without them
I hazard a guess the middle class were the ones who spearheaded the workers' rights as a concept, the peasants were too busy and impoverished to think of such concepts.
Get pushed down to destitution and even a person is reduced to that of a mindless animal.
one group doesn't work with another if there's not a win win situation, both fighting for the interests of the collective beyond a class structure
Guess that is one reason why sapience is so rare, the universe is too harsh to allow such thing as intellect to begin with.
And those who arise only destroy themselves by fighting over the morsels that might sustain them for a while.
One of the things that made the Hansa great, each city that agreed to form part of the alliance had to contribute to it, so if at one point the interest of a city didn't align with the alliance in a particular point they could just leave and join back later
That is if the door remains open.
It always will cause the alliance understands that each city and its inhabitants have a need that might not align
in time, if it is to be, the interests will align again and everyone will be happy
Only during the precious few good times.
each city knows that and would do the same
things changed constantly, they spent more time in courtrooms debating treaties than probably its merchants did on the roads and seas
I'm going to stop. This shit is getting too heavy and is already beyond my cognitive abilities.
don't mind me I'm just Hansaxplainin'
I am a bit of a loner, so collectivism (even the most primitive, informal and half-arsed forms of it) is a difficult and alien concept for me.
Collectivism is the wrong term if you were to ax me, the phenomenon of people organizing themselves in groups or guilds isn't entirely collectivism imho, more of a tribal/cultural subgroup identity
Co-operation at a more formal setting would have been a better term.
yes, exactly, sweet contractual obligations
Ah, contracts and transactions. Those are easier at least at a surface level.
that is essentially the bread and butter of the middle ages and earlier, some structures were quite developed to allow for it in many instances, which drove the whole of innovation if you ax me
without the complex networks and structures traders developed humanity would probably never go past hunter gathering
I think I really got a good script laid down for a first episode
off the cuff and whatnot
intensive agriculture meets intensive herding/livestock, creates roads, making longer distance communication and trade easier, making a semi-globalised network of trade probably fast as heck
minus most of Africa cause of some flies and mosquitoes and heat and the Americas cause they far as heck
I hate mosquitoes.
If I see one I go apeshit and terminate them with extreme prejudice.
I like how this discord is for the game but in off topic I see some of the most in depth and intelligent conversations about random shit
hey.
Hi
how're ya?
Good so far
Oh boy Bitcoin is about to go ballistic if this keeps up for another week

should touch 71k and correct but it has so much steam it might blow through it and finally reach the banana zone after 4 long years
literally bitcoin dominance is 1% away from reaching critical mass
I got insane heartburn rn 😔
Wait, it's facing the other side
what I know from my previous playthrough is that around 58% Bitcoin dominance it starts to skyrocket on its own, outperforming massively 90% of the market, then once dominance reaches 68% we have officially made it to the banana zone and everything goes wild
it's really intriguing why dominance is a reliable metric, but it is, I guess it has to do with money allocations, flows and whatnot
