There have been similar moral panics about whatever the kids were doing throughout history, including comic books, jazz, prose literature, the waltz, polyphonic music, and even writing stuff down instead of just remembering it.

I gather it wasn't in the original release, but by the time I played it there was a difficulty setting. The easier difficulty is compatible to classic Zelda.

Don't staves of the magi explode spectacularly when destroyed?

That party might be done for either way.

When I think about this comic, it's always the alt-text that comes to mind:

By the third trimester, there will be hundreds of babies inside you.

a ton of dummy ships

We usually call those missiles. :P

You've reminded me of a bit of flavor text from Starsector that I particularly like, from the missile specialization skill:

My colleagues don't appreciate their whimsy. You get all these little spaceships and you break all the rules 'cause they don't need to survive landing.

And if we want to be really precise about where energy comes from, it's worth noting that all elements heavier than hydrogen (i.e. all if them) are the result of stellar fusion. Up to iron in the main phase, and anything heavier in supernovae, neutron star mergers, and possibly other extremely violent events. So fission is extracting the stored energy of dead stars.

Ultimately, it's probably all just residual energy from the Big Bang.

Technically so are fossil fuels.

…lots and lots of extra steps.

Yeah there's definitely overlap, especially considering that every single racist is necessarily also a racialist. But the inverse doesn't hold; it's like squares and rectangles.

Racism is the belief that some races are better than others. Racialism is the belief that races exist at all.

Where I'm from, the term refers to spiders in the phlocidae family.

Believe it or not, release more wolves.

Solaar does work to change it, it's just that I have to go back and change it again every time I plug it in to charge, and then once more when I unplug it.

Looks like OpenRGB doesn't list my specific mouse but does support the wired version, so maybe I'll give it a try.
