Random question of the day:

Is the self-centered nature of the residents of fictional cities an accurate and fundamental depiction of the self-centered nature of the real life human race?

 

[Idea]

It depends on the work, but I do generally find it to be a bit exaggerated for some manner of thematic purpose, though I do believe people are self-centered by nature (which should be noted doesn’t mean one can’t be altruistic. The two aren’t truly incompatible as even if one’s reasons when it comes down to the core is self-centered, one can still tie one’s own well-being to that of others).

I mean, the "nature of the real life human race" is incredibly diverse. Saying the nature of the human race is self-centered is like saying the temperament of pit bulls is violent. You're half-right and half-wrong.

This question says a lot more about what you're watching, reading, or playing I think

Random question of the day:

What are your views on the "next generation" trope in roleplaying?

 

[Idea]

In fandom not a fan. To me it just tends to come off as an environment of bad fanfic OCs and in some cases it even brings in multifandom or something close to it. It's not that it can't be done well but it's overshadowed by the times its really really not.

In TTRPGs it can be far more interesting though, though it does presumably usually entail having completed a whole campaign with characters or at least having spent enough time with them to justify it. At least from my experience this kind tends to build more on what came before, tackling the actual themes of a "next generation" and the legacy of the characters that came before.

What are some do's and don'ts when applying psychoanalysis into roleplays?

Random question of the day:

Could humans get so much more done if days lasted 48 hours and weeks lasted 14 days?

 

[Idea]

I mean, all else constant humans would still have the exact same amount of time, just divided differently.

 

[Daisie]

Humans would also have the same pace of work so... unlikely.

Random question of the day:

If a businessman says "It was pleasure doing business with you", does a prostitute say "It was business doing pleasure with you"?

 

[Idea]

They can just use the same line.

 

[DragonSlayer57]

Well, it can very well depend on the experience, environment, and who you are talking to. Grammatically that line doesn’t really make sense, but depending on the person they could jokingly say it. I don’t see it being said in a professional matter however.

A Choose your own adventure style what’s weird about it. It was about something eating a gummy bear or sparing it done in several scenarios. I still couldn’t figure out if it was supposed to be silly or if it was a weird fetish.

Would you rather walk a tightrope situated over a pit full of giant scorpions or go scuba diving in an undersea grotto full of large sharks?
