  • I really like Ernst’s work, and am kinda surprised Holywood hasnt made a biopic about his life yet. Pretty much believed his pet bird from his childhood that died was reincarnated as his sister. Had no formal artistic training other than being interested in the art of patients living in asylums. Fought in WWI. Was part of a thrupple in France.

    When WWII broke out he was arrested by the French for being German. Then France fell and he was arrested by the Gestapo for his surrealist art (and preciously having married a Jewish woman). Escaped and fled to America until the 50’s.

    The whole “tolerance paradox” can be solved by a very simple fact: Those that seek to break the social contract we all live under do not get afforded the benefits of said social contract.

    By the very nature of trying to break/corrupt it you have nullified it for yourself. And until you are willing to abide by it again, you face the same punishment as those that break any of our laws. Your rights restricted, confinement, financial penalties, etc.







  • I cant believe i am saying this, but i will give GF the smallest amount of a pass possible in that if they could develop a game on their schedule (while it probably would still have issues) it would probably be a much more complete and game than we have seen in a while.

    And the reason for that is because of the demands and standards on GF from Nintendo/The Pokemon Company would be alleviated by significantly more development time.

    Pokemon the brand is so fucking massive it is almost hard to comprehend. And that is because in part of how well synergized the different products are marketed and released. And right there is why it is impossible for GF to ask for a game to be delayed if they wanted to in order to create more assets (like 3D sprites) or do QA.

    A delay in the game releasing means they have to slow the production of cards, tv shows, movies, toys, promotions, all of the rest of the products that are based on the new game’s pokemon or other features.

    The entire brand pretty much has to halt. Why do that when they know people will still by a poorly optimized and game with less features than the previous entry (plus DLC) and then still get hyped to also buy cards and toys and everything else?
