I hope he gets messaged every hour about how his name might draw the wrong crowd.

Also that he needs to take pills for a bigger penis.

ETA: And that he might be able to profit from Nigerian princes needing some money laundered through the United States.

Also he should try EA’s FIFA offerings… okay, I’m getting carried away. No one deserves that.

Years ago, I played Homefront: The Revolution which was a ridiculous premise (North Korea magically invents and develops microcircuits in the 20th century instead of the US, and invades the US) but had solid weapons and a really great remote-control car bomb.

Its version of the flying cameras from Half Life 2 that actually identifies you and calls for reinforcements also was spot on.

It also had a pretty cool pause-screen song.

Then it had trouble working with computer upgrades, and I moved on to other things.

Giving the benefit of the doubt, it’s illustrating a process for near-readymade art.

Terraria currently. Satisfactory and DRG before.

Sexuality has multiple axes.

1. Intensity
2. Orientation (towards Men, Women, Frogs)
3. Time (people have been known to have straight periods, gay periods, horny periods, ace periods, etc.)

There are probably others that we relate to kink and paraphilia.

So the very gayest person would have to be specifically defined. Which is gayer: the horniest bisexual or the average-libido gay who has absolute-zero-Kelvin interest in the other sex? Or the gay man who is totally in love with (and exclusively devoted to) his hubby and has been this way for fifty years?

Assuming I wasn’t trolled by a historian, the name goth for our post-modern mortality-celebrating Cure-listening well-dressed counter-culture comes from the Romans, not because the barbarians at the gates were wearing black lipstick, but because Romans were prone to call any counter-culture in Rome gothic.

Rome was sacked by Visigoths more than once, and rebuilt again. So gothic was a term of derision by conservatives who liked classical styles and not these new-fangled buildings that were erected when the old one burned down, or for that matter, these new-fangled liberal ideas the kids go on about. A prime example is Ogival architecture (tall spires and flying buttresses) called Gothic for being the new Roman style by those who longed for the pre-sack skyline.

We see similar effects with other regional groups. Bohemians (the absinthe-drinking free-loving artists) only started with migrating creatives from Bohemia inspiring a (goth-adjacent) counter-culture celebrated across Europe. Also the attribution of French stuff typically having to do with sex or cooking e.g. French post cards (NSFW pin-up women) or French fries (julienned potatoes) much of which doesn’t originate from France, but might have gained popularity in Paris.
