I really appreciate that the Netflix Castlevania adaptation looked at the fact that Dracula’s sprite is so much larger than Trevor’s, and where they could have acknowledged it as the result of technical limitations of the NES console, instead they said “no, Dracula is actually just eight feet tall”.
Lisa went into that castle, saw that tall spooky man, and thought, “That’s a whole ass husband”, and I can totally level with her
Whenever someone posits that people are ‘lazy’ I’m reminded of the fact that if you leave humans in a room with some blocks and no instructions they will literally make up their own tasks to carry out because humans just fuckin love having stuff to do and objectives to work towards
In one of my psych courses we learned about a study where a person was left in a room with nothing but a box that would SHOCK THEM painfully if they touched it. After awhile, everyone touched the box and got shocked to hell and back. Now, this isn’t that abnormal. What’s abnormal is that everyone then sat there for a few minutes and then TOUCHED THE BOX AGAIN. And got shocked AGAIN! Moral of the story: People fucking hate being bored. They would rather be in IMMENSE PAIN than be bored.
We’re “lazy” because the tasks most of us are forced to perform over and over again are simple and boring. They don’t provide stimulation, but they do eat up energy so when we have time to actually do creative things we don’t have the energy to :/
Do ppl know about trump actively trying to buy the company that’s currently working on a covid vaccine and wanting to keep it to American use only or is this a Germany only headline
It gets wierder and more troubling too. Apparently the CEO that met with trump has abruptly stepped down. The company is now being run by one of its founders. Wtf is going on here?
have not seen it in america but that IS pretty fuckin horrifying so like hey what the fuck
You really need to see this in the US because everyone else on the fucking planet has been seeing this for nearly a week and we are PISSED
Your government, in the middle of a global fucking pandemic, literally tried to buy the vaccine under development for said pandemic exclusively for the US.
