In the distant future, the year 2000:

There is no more unethical treatment of the elephants
Well, there’s no more elephants, so

Ooh, new Zahn books?

It’s everything you want? Everything you need? Everything inside of you that you wish you could be?

In addition 5o what others mentioned, Final Fantasy is named for nostalgic company reasons, not necessarily for the public. Square was doing bad and going out of business, and decided to have a passion project for their last release, the Final Fantasy of theirs.

It saved the company. So in its honor, their flagship RPGs are always named Final Fantasy. While they often have Easter eggs, like Biggs, Wedge(?), Cid, Moogles, etc, the games are mostly unrelated otherwise. 14 does have tons of references to others in the series though.

The missing arm is icing on the cake, even if it wasn’t intentional.

Gender neutral, but forgot their existed.

Having used all 3 and not totally hating any of them, all the Windows ones I agree with, the two Linux ones that isn’t old computer I agree with, and I only agree with the money one for Mac. I don’t have an issue with Mac OS more than Windows OS, but it is way overpriced. At least with Windows I haven’t actually paid Microsoft much on thet front. Though if you add in other MS products then we’re back to being screwed.

Ha, jokes on them, I don’t make posts.

One of the biggest weebs I know is also an avid camper. Like every vacation is hiking and camping in the wilds.

Chato part chatokun name. Kun mean chatokun weeb.

Yeah, if it only took me 15 mins and I didn’t have to drive, I’d be fine with it too. Currently my drive is about 30m outside of rush hour times, longer of course during. In addition I have to move soon, so it might go up again. That’s all just wasted time.

Just a bad joke on your typo at the end, “holly shit” instead of “holy shit”. Holly berries are poisonous and will give you diarrhea.

I think just “taking the red pill” is the main metaphor. It involves learning what you and the world truly are, and you can’t go back to the lie. I’m def no expert though.

Yeah, eating holly berries will do that to ya.

Burning books like this requires enough targeted hatred and a need to offend the targets. It also is usually more effective if your target is a minority (not specifically racial, just a much weaker target), as that bolsters your position of power and lessens the likelihood of retaliation.

Atheists sometimes have that much hatred, but at least where I am Christianity isn’t small enough to be a minority, so the fear of backlash might be holding back some of the hatred type atheists.

Another reason may depend on why someone became an atheists. Many of us don’t hate religious people directly, we just have issues with what organized religion gets away with. People like me came to this conclusion by comparing scientific evidence to blind faith. By nature, faith will be more emotional and reactionary, whereas if you come to a position after learning and changing yourself, you’re more open to understanding why it’s not really a good idea to hate like that.

Though I’d call myself agnostic vs an atheist.

While I agree with the sentiment, making a plan to make changes is a very important first step. I’m still a car driver who wants better public transportation, while also acknowledging its very unlikely for my area (45 mins outside Atlanta, GA). However, if we aim for it specifically, it’s always a good step, even if it’s not going to be instant or 5 years.

One of the biggest issues ro change are people saying “that won’t happen” and just not changing the status quo. We don’t need to perfectly do it in a short time, but we do need to start making steps right away, even if they take longer than we want.
