  1. Should low quality university degrees be restricted?

    I would be somewhat skeptical of this move, especially given the graph that came with BBC article and trends within universities. The university is meant to have the dual focus of preparing people for participation within society and for the production of academic research. While getting...
  2. Last Game Played

    Guardians of the Galaxy, I am surprised I put off playing it for so long. I am really enjoying it. Love the exchanges between the team members.
  3. The 10 Year Anniversary of the Black Lives Matter Grift

    So as long as said conversation is continuing to perpetuate racism and maintain the social hierarchy then it can go ahead. I like it how the only scope for conversation they will allow is further demonizing of a marginalized community. Their unwillingness to have an actual conversation is on...
  4. How Evolution Fuels Racism & Bigotry

    He never really establishes or develops the position adequately. Neither his conceptualization of evolution nor that of racism were satisfactory. I hadn't heard of him, so was expecting much more from the video than what we got. Which is a shame, as there has been a lot of literature on...
  5. Video games are tough on you because they love you

    I totally do the same thing as him, and talk to the character as if they can hear me. A former flatmate found it amusing when he started living with me. Not sure if it makes it better, but I will also swear at myself when I do stupid shit. 😅 😅
  6. Achievements & Trophies

    Sometimes going for them can be a detriment to my gaming experience, whereas at others it can improve the experience. On Playstation consoles I will typically look for a guide and roadmap to see if it falls within my limited skillset. If it looks achievable to me, I will give it a go. I am...
  7. Last Game Played

    Yep, I finished it before I started Klonoa. I didn't do any of the trials though haha. I did all the hunts and side quests though. I ended up enjoying the game all the way through. Also preferred the side quests in this a lot more than the ones in 15. I am also now on Klonoa 2 although I don't...
  8. BLM Supporter Charged In Philadelphia Mass Shooting

    I am not even surprised that they would try to spin this story in such a manner. Especially with the current trend where they have really amped up their efforts of dehumanizing anyone and anything they can connect to people who are trans. Regardless of whether the link exists only in their...
  9. If couldn't play games for a year

    I would like to say that I would do a lot more reading, I would also possibly spend a lot more time posting on forums. When I took a break for a few years from playing games I did do both of those things a lot more. I also spent a lot more time listening to podcasts and following the political news.

    Still Klonoa, although I am not having as much fun with it now. Hahaha oh my life am I bad at this game. Stuck in the bonus level, I am sure that I am only like 1 or 2 rooms from the end. Might as well be an eternity away though with how badly I am going. :banghead: :banghead:
  11. If you could make one thing illegal...

    Acting in a way which compromises the ability of others to realize their human rights. Essentially enshrining the universal declaration of human rights and subsequent declarations. We have had the declarations for some time now, yet they have never adequately been enforced as so many behaviours...
  12. Do You Day Dream?

    Yes, I still daydream a lot. It isn't really a mater of having time or not, I just seem to slip into daydreams without even meaning to. My job is pretty monotonous, so I can't imagine how people would get through their shifts without daydreaming. Although I am not always daydreaming at work...
  13. Do you have an inner monologue?

    I remember someone on social media once mentioning how they think more in terms of visuals. I wonder if for a fair amount of them they are simply more outwardly focused and in tune with their environment and/or senses. I have seen people asking about it on some groups I am in on Facebook and...
  14. Breaking up Relationship

    It has been a long time since I have been in a relationship, so it feels like I am looking at another lifetime when I try to recall how my relationships have ended. I have had 3 break up with me and I have broken up with 2. I would say that I was at fault in all five of them. Although I would...

    Klonoa: Door to Phantomile from the remake. I am enjoying it. The nostalgic hit that I wanted. I loved the 1st on they original PlayStation. 😁
  16. Have you joined using Threads?

    It isn't even just the filter. Some people share the most inane and stupid things. But then we also have a coworker at my work who I am pretty certain has never had a thought that they didn't say out loud. 😬😬
  17. Do you have an inner monologue?

    The topic of inner monologues is really interesting. Some have said that something like 50 to 70% of people don't have an inner monologues. Which is astounding to me, I can't even conceive of what it would be like to function like that. For myself I very much have an inner monologues. One which...
  18. Have you joined using Threads?

    I am not surprised, it only came out last week. I have joined but I mostly just lurk. I haven't created any threads? Not even sure what you would call it. I did reply to a few comments though. I never really tweeted on twitter either though. It amazes me how people can be so open with their...

    Same here, I am pretty sure I am on the home stretch now.
  20. The earth isn't flat

    Well when you think about it, are they really wrong? A significant portion of the Earth's surface is water. Something around 70%. A vast majority of this found within our oceans. And it is interesting to note that none of the oceans are carbonated. Hence the world is flat.
