I know I'm not getting the metaphor here because to me, this looks like Republicans and Democrats working together to impale fascism using the power societies gain when wielding the "stake" of communism??

(this is drunken blathering, nothing of consequence is said past this point)

This is, actually, something that's become a pretty core belief for me. Since waking up from the conservative idiocy I was raised within I mean.

The idea being that no grand atrocities were directed by lazy people. Related is my argument for the value of uncertainty, a person who isn't quite sure that they already understand everything important.

(and I'm too drunk to tell if this comment is at all relevant to the context I'm posting it in...)

Nice project man!

I'm on mobile right now so I'm not seeing the game in it's intended environment and I'm not sure what controls I'm unable to use from this interface but, it looks like a fun project!

Keep working on little coding projects you enjoy, I started coding somewhere around 10-14 and slowly developed those skills as I finished school and started college for a pretty different career. Now, more than a decade into that other-career, I'm starting to get my work responsibilities shifted back toward coding projects which I'm enjoying so much.

My point being, do coding long as you enjoy it. Those skills will still be there when you need them, later in life.

I don't want to throw any shade on the art you just made, that felt good to read aloud, I am wondering though if it isn't "proper" to end sentences "early" or even that it isn't "wrong" to continue them too long.

I'm way less educated on "proper" grammar rules than I feel like I should be to ask this question but... Isn't that right there strictly a run-on sentence?

There are a couple places where it feels like the sentence ends and after the comma, another sentence begins. Such as:

...each paragraph the substance of a chapter. With authors like Henry James and Marcel Proust..."

or another place:

"...modes of communication and consumption. A reflection of our times where efficiency..."

Or is there no grammatical "rule" setting absolute limits on the length of a sentence?

Quality Post

 

So, the gist is, I've only ever worn whichever-FruitOfTheLooms were cheapest at whatever Walmart or Target I happened to be at. There was that one time I was at a fetish shop and I bought fancy underwear (for like forty dollars...) but I'm hoping to find something somewhere in between.

What's an underwear option that supports looking like they were bought, neither, by one's mom 20 years ago nor by a 40 year old virgin at a sex shop?
