@aescling depending on who you got it through and how you paid for it you might need money in your account
i play pokémon because i like raising cute creatures to be strong
the more gameplay there is for raising cute creatures to be strong, the more cumbersome things are for competitive players who just want to play with their desired teams
letting you farm experience candies with max raid battles or transfer egg moves by just putting two pokémon together in the nursery in SwSh is objectively good for competitive players but also takes all the fun out of gaining experience or pokémon breeding for me
those parts of the games went from challenges in their own right to just facilitatory mechanics in preparation for the challenge of battling
pokémon games will never be as good as no-frills battle simulators for competitive play and they should embrace that instead of trying to turn an RPG into a battle simulator but with more grinding
and also make actual battle simulators instead of trying to shut them down
@alyssa honestly probably the greatest lesson i took from reading derrida in college was the importance of the concept of “worthy of critique”
derrida and the people around him (de man, etc) believed that studying critiques of a text was essential to exposing its meaning (because only in the critique of a critique are you analysing the interpretive process itself, i.e. how meaning is formed or not formed from text)
so critiques, through a kind of double negative, become a really positive force, and something you only really direct at things you really like and want to form meaning around

@witchfynder_finder me reading bbc articles about the monarchy
@alyssa if it helps i’m pretty sure derrida only criticizes people he actually at least halfway agrees with
bigoted is when you try to justify your own personal aesthetic preferences as somehow morally superior or culturally enlightened or more civilized or more universal than other possible aesthetic preferences, fool

@aescling makes me wonder if the corresponding enbies who are "hetero" towards both men and women is a meaningful demographic as well
@aescling anyway my experience with pansexuals is that they are absolutely do tend to be "what if we did bisexuality but made both parts of it gay" genderfluid types
@aescling my personal opinion is that wanting to be the thing they are attracted to is a big chunk of the reason why many lesbians even consider themselves women at all
@aescling fellas is it gay to want to be the thing you are attracted to?
@witchfynder_finder <del>they sure as heck didn’t do anything else</del>
