What I’m referring to is youth fiction but I remember them fondly

Magik by Angie Sage. Though truth be told that’s a 5th book revelation

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable for magic

And there it is everyone he cares more about the label then purposely disparaging upwards of 50% of a country as mentally deficient and or incapable . Or perhaps I just lack the sufficient reading comprehension to extrapolate your multi-layered and nuanced themed assertions based on ill sourced polls that Americans are not intelligent because the ones sampled failed arbitrary litmus tests of knowledge. Woe is me because it’s spread across multiple posts the true meaning of your tirade has been lost to me with my ADHD rattled autism spectrumd non-neurotypical brain. It’s okay. You can spell it out for me. I’ve been told by many professionals that I am in fact retarded. Clutch your pearls harder sweetie. Take your Pharisee energy somewhere else.

You’re literally mocking people based on their perceived intelligence quotient but you get offended if I use a term like retarded. Gotcha. Seems just a bit hypocritical. You can try to fancy it up with ephemeral vocabulary all you want but at the end of the day you’re mocking people for being less cognitively able. I’m just helping you see the paint that you laid down.

Proclaiming that Americans are retarded while also running around with shit streaming out of your pants isn’t a very endearing argument. You’re not wrong, but you’re also not going to convince anyone your points have merit.

We are discussing biological sex as in the parts we are not discussing gender.

Couple of fun facts about this :

so God themself while referred to in English as a he refers to themselves as ’ I am ’ technically I think we should be using they them pronouns but English was traditionally a gendered language.

Jesus on the other hand 100% had a dick. Whether he kept that or not, post ascension that’s up for interpretation but Jesus was 100% biologically male.

Why would we need power off comrade? We sold that device

In chemistry, you’ll find the dose is the most important factor. Also, I don’t think it would be possible to super saturate your body with carbon dioxide or monoxide even if you purposely ingested something and then reacted it to break it down into those gases internally. I’m certain you would increase the concentration in your blood, but your lungs have far more surface area and tissue dedicated to gas exchange then your guts do. You would probably have terrible bouts of gas from both ends though.

I think you guys are missing the fact that I’m deliberately sabotaging whoever was the leading science civ and making the other civs crush them from classic age onwards. Whoever became the new science King was soon dethroned.

Pretty hard to win if your three main cities get raised to the ground or absorbed and you get effectively removed from the game.

I was basically balkanizing the map.

The joke is that the Lo-Fi girl has been constantly writing the same document in a looped animation for the last several years.

I’m pretty sure I ended it with 25 cities and roughly 500 to 600 science per turn output. Just because there’s an established way to play doesn’t mean that you can’t find alternative paths with the proper civ.

I think you’re missing my point because I knocked out a science civ with pure gold and warfare and then switched my focus to science and outscienced a science civ.

Most people go tall or wide. I go wide and tall. It takes a very long time but once I get production ramped up I am literally unstoppable. It’s just a matter of time. Cities can easily accommodate a population of 20 with internal happiness at that age.

This immediately puts me at war with every single non city state NPC. However, I am an Island fortress and 2/3 of my GDP is generated from intercity trade among my own cities and the tree between my civilization and the city states that dotted in my territory. (Did you know you can upgrade their tiles for them). The last third of my income comes from direct trade with two other human players. I immediately deployed my Navy to secure safe travel for my cargos between those ports. Due to the fact that the other human that’s winning is an Atlantic Ocean away from me and that I am on paper still their Ally. However, I’m also the one that just initiated the surprise ai attack of most of the remaining ai against them. ( We were playing with 12 civs 24 city-states huge map and I’m pretty sure nine civs declared war at once). By the time my first naval ships made it to his shore escorting my trade shifts. He had already lost five cities and his civilization was in revolt due to unhappiness. By the time I landed my first troops, 10 turns later to start pushing back the attack and unconquering his land. I had also attained nuclear theory while he had been stalled the entire time due to unhappiness and revolts and The invasion. By the time I had reconquered his land, I was sending up the final pieces of the space station.

I was playing civ 5 with a few IRL friends over internet multiplayer. Victory types : religion scientific or political I had the largest economy by far but I was behind in tech. My military was decent. My religion was the third or fourth largest.

I had made a personal agreement through DM with one of the other human players and asked them if I could put a spy in their Capital and steal the techs they had acquired if I research agreed them. ( I was paying both halfs of the research agreement). By the time I had conquered my entire continent and extinguished the two annoying sivs that kept attacking me and neutered the other two into vassals (if you bring back an AI that another AI killed, they are very grateful to you). So as the year 1900 rolls around, I control 1/3 of the map landmass as territory under the work of my cities I cover the entirety of a large dorito shaped continent All of my cities are fully producing, have all buildings and are outputting massive amounts of GDP. However, one of the other human players has just researched nuclear theory and I’ve just figured out Great war infantry. I still have not caught up but I have made massive gains. I know I can’t close the distance at this rate though. I am in an open alliance with this player as I am buying the tech off them still. I’m probably sitting on $50,000 with a thousand s coming in every turn. I pay off every single NPC to attack them

Is this rhetorical? He’s an autocratic dictator who has purged competition is committing/ committed an invasion of his neighbors and trying to re-establish into Russian ethno State. What point are you trying to prove. clearly by the definitions that us random passers by to this comment section have understood he is a Nazi in the modern vernacular.
