As I've been increasingly getting into baseball, I've been increasingly getting into advanced baseball statistics, so it's nice to have a place to talk about that! My Brewers doing well has certainly helped, but another big factor in my interest is the advanced stats of baseball, and the...

Can the Patriots play anyone close? They lost 35-6 to the Jaguars, and the Packers ended the game 42-14 in the third in Foxborough, eventually bringing out Tyrod Taylor at QB. Frankly, I don't think they're very good. They can play the Jets (at home) and Dolphins close, though, with...

This is fun! I randomly* chose articles and reviewed them with modified* haiku. The third line creates disconnect from the prior two, inviting you to bridge the gap, paralleling the 切れ字 kireji without recreating it entirely. If you're like me, you're sometimes not sure how to engage with...

Gender is extremely important to most people. Most people (cis or not) are severely disoriented and/or offended when engaged with via the wrong gender classification. So yeah that's a pretty big priority to include Gender words in english are not particularly troublesome linguistically - the...

I've recently been getting into Super Mario Strikers for the GameCube. As a long-time Strikers Charged (Wii) player and lover, it's impressive how Super feels great in its own unique way. I could change my perspective as I continue to get better at Super - I'm a bit better than Superstar CPUs...

i love little mini environment ecosystem biome type stuff which kinda sounds like the first one. so many organically emergent interconnected parts and emergent system equilbria. maybe

Woo! I'm honestly happy my Bucks have moved beyond Giannis and are looking towards the future. I don't even mind that we're bad enough to miss these rankings. I just wish the players were more likable... hopefully the team culture can gradually get better now that the specters of Giannis trades...

Start with small, achievable things, and build up to the extent you want to. Online, straightforwardly consider yourself a girl, and ask people to call you be she/her when applicable. You can also play around with customization options to help hone your female presence and what that means to...

Honestly, now that you say this, I'm surprised more tiers don't have a "make this unrated" button you can select, just in general. It could cause big wait time issues in smaller formats, but for the biggest, I'm not sure why they don't have this, and why Unrated Random Battle is its own whole...

Because the ladder isn't a measure of fun. It's a measure of skill, and part of developing and showing skill is doing things that are not fun. That's true in Pokemon and in most everything else, too. People overrate the importance of being good, I think. It works for some people, and that's...

This probably doesn't work with a rating system. You're not trying to use it to gain an unfair rating advantage, but anybody else could if they wanted. They could blacklist all kinds of good and popular Pokemon to coast to easier wins. This problem goes pretty deep. If you're thinking "well if...

I agree they could have made whatever work – they did not have to use Charizard – including just designing a new Gen. 7 mon for it. I didn't think of that at all. This is a boring thing to say but I think the truth is somewhere in the middle here. I imagine GF's process being like. Charizard...
