  • Being that I’m not transgender or American I don’t think I can personally understand everything you’re feeling right now. All I can say is be strong for yourself, and your friends and family; we all need to support each other if we are going to get through this.

    And a double fuck you to anyone who voted for Trump.














  • Interesting, I wouldn’t have thought the Romans were that influenced by the Chinese empire, I knew of the silk road and the cost of silk. But my understanding was the middle men between both nations jacking up the price combined with the long distance materials needed to travel.

    That said I agree that a large proportion of Roman culture was influenced by the Greeks, but couldn’t the same thing be said (to a much lesser extent of course) of the US and the British; Both countries have a shared history, a common language, an overlap in religious beliefs and legal principles.

    My point being each empire builds off the previous one and with advancement in technologies and the reduction in degrees of separation, the ability to propagate an empire’s culture increases. America is hugely influential, but a part of that is they are the current world power in a world with the internet, being able to travel anywhere in the world in less than a day and most people being able to speak English.

    This is not an attempt to undermine America’s achievements, they are a world power for a reason, but it’s my belief that powers following their fall will overtake them in cultural influence.

    Would love to read your reply, personally love a good discussion about random shit like this.


  • Want to play your game with all the DLC you paid for once the server is shut down… Fuck you.

    Oh and playing a cracked version is illegal… Fuck you twice.

    Game was shipped with DRM that doesn’t work anymore, well sorry no way around that legally… Eat shit.

    Everything we sell you is temporary, you don’t own your stuff, but we own your money.

    Pirate, emulate and tell these companies to sit and spin.


  • Well yeah of course.

    A world power influences others to copy them, during the Roman Empire they were the most influential and had the greatest cultural reach, same with the British.

    As time goes by and technology allows for greater interconnectivity and a countries ability to influence others increases. Chances are the next world power will continue this trend and take over with their culture.
