But WHY would an all-powerful demon make a human swear, puke, rotate their head and crawl upside-down?

That's why the Exorcist and its endless ripoffs have failed to scare or impress me, just the knowledge that an infernal hellbeast would surely have something better to do

I have a new #HotTake on the "life gives you lemons" story.

When #life gives you #lemons you must #create an entire #empire from them. Born from #organic #interest and 100% #cultivation as such. The #signal to begin is now.

maybe i am polarized on #ai

but i do feel like it doesn't have any role in writing, fiction or non-fiction. did you find a way to start writing with ai? cool. but it's not your voice anymore. so much of writing is creating a unique way of telling a tale, something only you can produce. that's the art. and ai cannot do that for you.

I genuinely believe that the Minecraft community as a whole is coping really fucking hard with the idea that a "The End Update" is ever coming. I think it's just a case of a fandom wanting something so badlh that they end up gaslighting themselves into believing that it's actually truly coming. See Titanfall 3, for example.

The thing is, while yet Nether got a big update, the Nether is substantially easier to access than The End. It made sense to update it. But the fact of the matter is that The End is quite niche. When you step outside of the biggest fans of Minecraft, you'll find that most people will never go to it. And yeah, this is purely anecdotal, but I'm willing to bet that Mojang has the numbers and that it shows that most people never even stepped foot in The End because of how hard it is to access.

Maybe The End is meant to be the way that it is a desolate place that perhaps hints at it being something bigger in the past, but that has been stripped down of all resources.

This could be very wrong and honestly this could age ridiculously fast and very poorly. And I'd be very happy to own up to that. Maybe they will find a way, maybe they will add a new way to get to the end, make it easier somehow, make it more worth it. I don't know.

I mean, we've seen it in Dungeons. It's a very different place than the one we got. This either backs the fact of the fact of the fact of the fact of the fact that it's originally from the past than it has indeed been stripped out since then, or it may be hints at what could be coming to it. Who knows?

It's just that I've been hearing about the end update for a very long time now and I'm quite convinced that this is just a case of, as I said, a fandom wanting something so bad they end up gaslighting themselves into believing it's actually coming.

I would love to be wrong.

Hot take: Only people who have given birth should be able to declare wars.

If you haven't experienced first hand how hard it is to create a new human being from scratch, you are not allowed to decide on the death of human beings.

Or as Gandalf said:
> Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends.

In this #HotTake I will get #wild with my #thoughts on a couple of key #topics of #interest here.

Starting with #consensual #sexuality as a whole.

All forms of #government need to stop making #laws that prohibit how people live their lives as a #group by any #culture #background #race or #creed indeed.

Secondly, when it comes to the topic of #gender state very clearly your #biological preference on your own terms. Let #organizations choose what those are, not arbitrarily but actually as such.

#HotTake: #EmojiKitchen would be a really good way to extend #Emoji, and maybe there should be something added to the #unicode standard to procedurally extend your #emojis like that with another one, because being able to specify something as specific as "raccoon in a trashcan popping champagne" is awesome, and I predict that as more young people become #furries they will want their #fursona #animals to be available as part of that standard...
