“Just put this bread into the oven for the first time. What on earth does “satin-smooth” mean? I am not a painter or a communist, I cannot work in such flowery terms as this. The fascists at the NSA wouldn’t allow this - I hope when they read this comment they will immediately take down this wishy-washy recipe and replace it with a concrete scientific methodology that is more suited to the delicate and precise nature of baking.” [screenshot ends]

What Idon’t ike about Disco Elysium:
🙄 Do we really need another grimy detective story? 👨🦳 I’m playing as a generic middle aged white man again, urgh.
@moreelen continues:
I want a game that isco Elysium’s same insanely well crafted narrative system and wonderful writing…
but it’s about a young witch trying to solve the disappearance of her neighbour’s cat in a small village in the Alps.
i believe it was bait
I don’t think she knows what “generic” means, or maybe everyone I know in real life is very unique…
Oh no, we mustn’t offend the middle aged white men’s sensibilities!
You don’t have to be an asshole, you know.
Why is it your default assumption that everyone who disagrees with you is a middle aged white man?
And why do you act as if calling someone that is an insult?
Wow. Let’s flip this around for a second. Why do you think middle aged white men have gotten such a bad reputation in the last ten years or so?
