!bookworms last week GRRM wrote an update on the new HBO schlock adaptation of his Dunk & Egg novellas.

Did I just read the words "Finish" and "Winds" in the same sentence? Am I dreaming? George? Are you promising me personally that WINDS OF WINTER will be complete by end of fiscal year 2025? In time for the holidays? Did you say that? I'm just going to go around believing that now.

OMG, A TWOW MENTION :#soyjakwow:

I can feel some new year optimism from George. I'm super excited for the Dunk and Egg adaptation, it looks good.

THIS TIME FOR REAL GUYS

No. The super-cynical posture some people take here that he's not working on it at all, is some kind of fraud, etc. is just a perverse form of copium. It's just a way for people to not get their hopes up. It's pretty obvious that he's trying to get it done but he's slow, it's hard, and he has a lot of other things going on. But it's pretty obvious that he's been working on it and probably has a ton of material at this point. What that means about him being close to an actual release date or anything like that is less clear.

Asoiafbros, will Dany finally leave Westeros? Will Ser Robert Strong kill the faith of the cucks champion? Is Aegon fake? Is the pink letter real?

The NFL says Racism is back for the super bowl, baby :marseyracist:

At his annual Super Bowl news conference Monday, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell strongly supported the league's policies designed to promote diversity at the club-employment level and said they would continue.

But during Super Bowl LIX, and with President Donald Trump apparently planning to attend on Sunday, the NFL might be making another kind of statement on the Caesars Superdome field itself. According to two league sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the discussions, league officials recently changed one of the slogans expected to be stenciled in the back of an end zone from "End Racism" to "Choose Love."

The game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles will mark the first time since February 2021 that "End Racism" is not included as a message in the back of a Super Bowl end zone.

The switch, conveyed internally to high-level employees earlier this week, could be perceived as a nod to the current political climate. Following the lead of Trump, who was inaugurated last month, many corporations and institutions are abandoning their diversity, equity and inclusion programs. Goodell did not follow suit when asked about the league's policies on Monday, saying he was "proud" of the league's diversity efforts.

"We got into diversity efforts because we felt it was the right thing for the National Football League," Goodell said. "And we're going to continue those efforts, because we've not only convinced ourselves we've proven it to ourselves β€” it does make the NFL better."

In Rhyes and Fall if you found a city in the Renaissance you get a bunch of free buildings. In Dawn of Civilization it's the same, but settlers in a new age can also be used to rush buildings that would have been provided otherwise. Here we can build a bunch of stuff for free with "Rebuild", including a library and a forge. We'll need these because Poland just spawned, hello Poland :marseywave2: :!marseyflagpoland:

Athens has historically been our Great People city since it's conquest, though Rome is catching up. We've had a Great Prophet born here, Eusebius.

We go straight for London, after capturing it they become the "English Government in Exile" but still refuse negotiations.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736872704ommvZAYcWuhtMw.webp

Really wish the AI was prone to settling just one more city in England :marseydisagree: It's kind of annoying that London controls its entire English core.

When a European or Christian civ researches Academia, the Protestant Reformation begins and Europe erupts in war. Since we're already fighting England, now is a good time to do it. Protestantism is founded in Rhegium. :marseyluther:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736871717IvuhmwedRxtp1w.webp

We can adopt Protestantism, allow Protestantism to spread, or stamp it out. After all the work I've put into Catholicism you should know what I'm gonna pick. :marseycrusade:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17368727052BjW6wKi3KMghQ.webp

England joins the Reformation, as expected. Portugal and the Norse join them. France probably would have if they weren't under my boot. Austria (the Holy Roman Empire) and Poland do not, fortunately. :marseypraying:

The Italian Maritime Republics are supposed to spawn in 1167AD. In a normal medieval game they spawn in north Italy and found Florence, taking Milan and Padua with them. I was afraid my two core cities were going to secede and I would need to reconquer them, but the 1167AD date has passed so apparently not. :marseybeanrelieved: I can focus on the Reformation wars.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17368748266-APl3sB1Dc4HQ.webp

The Austrians have claimed Denmark, blocking Norse access from Birka. The Norse have a port from Nidaros but I'm not too worried about them, we might need to be ready for a little naval harassment. They're at war with England, so there's not a risk of them reinforcing them.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736874027GNiebEn4LC5gEA.webp

With espionage I can see the Portugese army in Lisbon. It's big :marseyscream: (see unit icons at the bottom)

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736874297jGzluwzsMejR8Q.webp

In fact, they're one of the stronger military powers right now. Ethiopia is also up there too, interedasting :hmm:

If I don't take care of them they could frick up my vassal Spain, so while waiting my main army to arrive I reinforce their cities with troops from Tarragona and Alicante.

England collapses :marseysigh: If they had just been willing to surrender I would have returned London to them. I maybe should have taken their city in Scotland instead, but I really wanted them to capitulate.

This is going to screw up world history a little :marseyteehee: There will be no British Raj. The United States spawns assuming there are European colonies there, there will still probably be some but not in the same way. We might get a Dutch New Amsterdam instead of New York.

We already have an explorer in America. Maybe we could even colonize it :marseythinkorino2:

At least Alfred did well with his time running London. He's given it a Great General and a Great Engineer. It's still in our historic expansion zone so I think we'll keep it. Ireland is not, so I might set it free.

By the time my army arrives at Lisbon, Portugal is willing to surrender, but as it's the "Rise of the Portugese" they can't capitulate. I figure I will allow peace so I can properly focus on the coming Ottomans.

But suddenly, something extremely strange happens.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736877149JUs9Ene7B64JrQ.webp

Byzantine leader Basil I appears out of nowhere :marseyconfused2:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736877150T6NjItDyCiT24A.webp

Apparently Persia collapsed. Right after I lost 500 gold investing espionage against them:marseycry:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736877149_ow48GJ01p9BPA.webp

And Turkey has become the Byzantine "Empire of Dorylaion". I had no idea this was a thing. :marseywtf2:

This is the city that the Persians burnt down when I first conquered Greece, rebuilt, and I helped defend from the Arabs. It's been a valuable espionage center for centuries. What a journey it's been :marseyshook:

A few turns later we become the "Western Roman Empire", but no cities want to secede. It's not the Eastern Roman Empire, it's just this weird made up new "Dorylaion empire". Fascinating :marseybeanmonocle: Regrettably they do choose to become Pr*test*nt :platyeyes:

We're still stable but have outdated civics - apparently the culprit is Merchant Trade.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17368857616Hatg3-jajuzTw.webp

Time for a revolution.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736886126bxP25JfA2EksHA.webp

Regulated Trade has stability and general gameplay synergy with Bureaucracy. I'll miss my Despotism whip :marseycracka: but Monarchy will further boost our stability.

Thalassocracy's benefits are negligible especially as more towns are popping up (Roma is working 3 towns and 2 fishing boats for example so we'll lose 1 commerce), and it no longer has a stability benefit with Merchant Trade. There's not much point to colonize too much but Colonialism will be fun anyway. We'll get some slaves and slave plantations up :marseysoutherner:

So many High upkeep civics and losing the free units from Vassalage is gonna hurt. But it's a very stable combo and Roma is so profitable that focusing all commerce to the capital might outperform the costs.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736893865uUmEvPxrrd_D_Q.webp

Sure enough, once the revolution is settled it turns out to be profitable. With Rome pumping out 275 gold per turn :weibodollareyes: we're making 5 gold a turn at 50% research funding instead of losing 6.


https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736894226nr8Pt9u7xUuplw.webp

Around 1280AD the short lived Empire of Dorylaion collapses.

No Ottoman Empire ever appearaed :marseyhmmm: I'm guessing the weird Turkish Byzantine Empire in their place prevented it.

:marseyhmm: I guess we can go ahead and mop up Turkey now.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736897668benHjM2PmPWpjg.webp

We finally have unified borders :marseyhappytears: and we're back to being the "Roman Empire" instead of the "Western Roman Empire".

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736899599Te8zopXwi4Mn-A.webp

The mongols right on my nuts are a little worrying tho. When Temujin asks me to fight Kievan Rus I have no problem doing so, any little thing to potentially keep this guy off my back. :marseyagreefast:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736910968SznT0no4nkwAIw.webp

I take Tarnopol and call it a day before setting it free. Later the mongols take Kyiv and Sweden France scoops up Tarnopol


Since Spain and France are our provinces we technically have Trajan's borders now! :marseyletsgo:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736901314YucpouAH5GHh8w.webp

Oh except Poortugal. Whatevs. What a beautiful empire regardless :marseyopera:

I was really expecting a big civil war and conflict with the Ottomans, it really does appear that the weird Byzantine state blocked them from spawning. This is very good for us. :marseyagreefast: But if the mongols invade, as they're prone to do, it could be trouble.

For now, time to look towards the new world :marseybinoculars:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736885242D8icVij13Sg0sA.webp

Mexico is controlled by Toltecs, predecessors of the Aztec. No conquistadors for either :marseygiveup: It might only be available to colonial European powers.

I've given my vassal France and Spanish technology to colonize, so they should get started soon :marseyfrontiersman:

Since I accidentally killed England, I can take care of colonizing America instead

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736906874g7Ix-fkVmpyGIA.webp

Australians all let us rejoice. For we are young and free.

Young? People have been on this land since before it was even an Australian continent. It's old, old as can be. :marseybait:

Regardless of whether the lyrics are right or not, in the grand scheme of things our country is young.

Mate, the Australian grand scheme goes back 50,000 years. This is archaeologically and scientifically proven, why pretend otherwise? Be proud.

White people think everything started with them stealing it.

Those are two completely separate things. Australia being an internationally recognised country happened in 1901, colonisation happened 130 years earlier. There were people on this land before colonisation and there were things here before people even arrived but the country of Australia did not exist until 1901.

Hence "young" in the lyrics.

I am not pretending otherwise I am just saying that out of all the internationally recognised countries, Australia is one of the youngest. I am proud of the ancient history of this land however that history was not during the time that this country existed as a country.

It's both. But if you believe our national identity should focus on just one heritage rather than embracing ALL Australians, then go ahead and sing "young"β€”no one cares.

Wasn't Australia then though.

There wasn't an Australia in 1788 either, but that doesn't stop you from celebrating Australia Day. Funny about that.

That's when it was colonised and it became the country of Australia in 1901 when federation happened. Not sure why you mentioned Australia Day.

We are one and free

Nope and we never will be. Never forgot the people who built and died for this country sang "young and free"

Oh please. Go learn your history. That version of the National Anthem started in the mid 1980s. What people who "built and died for this country" are you talking about?

Woke PM Scott Morrison changed the word from young to one in 2021


These comments show that people just make up scenarios in their head then get mad at it.

Yeah, the Lefties.

They live rent-free in your head, don't they?

Absolutely they do. They've been tearing the Western world apart before our very eyes for the last decade and a half. In fact, if they don't live rent free in your head, I'm more worried about you than anything. Do you just simply enjoy casually watching the West burn at the hands of radical socialist nutters?

This is the future all of us leftists want for Australia and you will be forced to assimilate

:marseyagree: !nonchuds what have you done today to destabilise western nations?

It's funny how bang on you are, yet you're trying to be facetious. This is precisely what these nutjobs want. Watch a few of these ffs: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLm4SIfXIAyzWD-R2yOQPmDtsvoBTtfzxz

I opened the link and then saw it was that right wing nutjob from Sky News and closed it. If you're going to try and prove an ideology is insane, Sky News isn't a good source

Yeah you're right, we didn't have major corporations at all trying to not even promote Australia Day. What a made up scenario, am I right?!

You think major corporations should be forced to promote public holidays?

The supermarkets stopped selling tacky Australia Day merchandise made in China because it wasn't profitable. That's the reason.

This exactly! If there was even a small profit still in the practice they would bleed it dry. Didn't one of the supermarkets even say that they had been throwing out thousands of dollars worth of Aus Day stock that no one was buying?


Yes it is but people will assume you're a right wing conservative unfortunately and is not a fair thing but just happens.

I'll only assume that if you drape it over your fricking shoulders like a cape.

I love seeing Asian-descent Aussies with the Aussie flag draped over their shoulders with Aussie Tatts on their faces having a barbie in the park etc Beautiful!

I went to a food factory a few weeks ago was sold frozen meat pies by the most bogan Asian I've ever met. Puts the whites to shame.

Who thinks that?

Lefties.

Maybe they assume that about you because you are a right wing nutjob?

I'm not right wing in the slightest. Also not a nut job. I subscribe to common sense, logic, and reasoning, of which the Left is barren.

We can see your comment history bro.

And? You're a complete nobody.

Here's what I think and where they align:

β€’ Closed borders and strong border security (Centre)

β€’ No uterus, no opinion. All life is an inconsequential accident of nature and abortion is not murder (moderate Left)

β€’ No one should have access to firearms except trained professionals such as police and military (moderate Left)

β€’ All religion should be officially abolished and should no longer be able to influence anything real (moderate Left)

β€’ Free speech must be protected at all costs and covers ALL speech. "Hate speech" included (Right-leaning)

β€’ LGBTQIA2+LMNOP nonsense has gone way too far and needs to be dialled back and restricted so that people with zero understanding of how the world works are not longer able to influence it (Right-leaning)

β€’ Everyone should be able to shag whoever they'd like (Left-leaning)

β€’ Promiscuity is not a negative thing whatsoever (moderate Left)

β€’ male feminists, libertarians, and certain murderers should be hanged and made an example of (I have no idea where this fits on the political spectrum)

I don't see a whole lot of Right-wing nutjob there.

And that's relevant because..?

Because you're a nobody trying to tell me what I am or am not. I'm not Right-wing. I'm just not a complete idiot and can see what the Left has done to the Western world.

Dude…. As I said: your comment history is there for all to see. There's two options here:

1 You know you're a right winger but you're trying to pretend you aren't. That'd be pretty stupid given the aforementioned comment history.

2 You genuinely believe you're not a right winger. That would just prove you're stupid because your comment history shows nothing but right (or alt-right) talking points and socio-political leanings.

So which is it? Stupid or really fricking stupid?

snip

Your username is ApacheGenderCopter and you're pulling the ol "I'm just a common sense centrist" malarkey. Get better at lying

You Lefties came out with the 300,000,000 genders bollocks, I'm just the one taking the piss, so you really haven't got a leg to stand on here. Common sense tells us there are only 2 genders. Too easy.

The same common sense that says the earth orbits the sun? Just because you observe it through your biased lense doesn't make it true.

Given the post-invasion shape of this country was created by left wingers, it's funny that people think that's somehow unAustralian. So real Australian is right wing, except the born to rule mob who used to think they were British and now spend their time tugging their forelocks to the Septics.

Your first mistake was calling it an "invasion". You're welcome, by the way.

"you're welcome" too Yankee.

I'm English you mong.

Ok, Pommy, just wondering why you were using that typical Americanism "you're welcome" + passive-aggressive posturing. So your people invaded this country and you're experiencing hurt feelings because someone said so? I guess you're one of those who thinks Cecil Rhodes was a hero and the East India Company was the best thing that ever happened to all those brown people?

No one invaded this country. We found a large piece of unclaimed land, colonised it, created an actual civilisation, and even left the natives alive. That's more than can be said for the Spanish. You don't hear the Aztecs or Incas banging on about how their lives are so hard with all this modern technology. Oh yeah… there's none left to b-word & moan. I don't know who Cecil Rhodes is.

The only "East [____] Trading Company" I know of is based in Solitude, Skyrim. So I'll say it again: You're welcome.

It's not your country mate, even though your forebears invaded it. But pretty much confirm the stereotype of a flag-waving racist.

It is our country, though. That's precisely my point. As a Brit & and an Australian, this is my country. The indigenous themselves considered themselves "custodians" of the land and specifically not "owners" (considering they had no concept of ownership). That makes it free real estate. Sorry. Them's the facts, and the funny things about facts is… drumroll They don't care about your feelings.

Piss off pom.

There it is. The very thing you Leftists swear you're against. While it's not technically racism, it's certainly prejudice towards a specific nation. You people are all the same. Proper airheads, the lot of ya.

Shooting fish in a barrel. Can't you make it a bit harder, snowflake?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Keep yapping, lil bro.

I'm a lefty and I don't care. Even as a lefty I'd proudly display the flag.

Do you believe in 300,000,000 genders and that cis straight white males are the root causes of all problems in the world? Do you absolutely despise Donald Trump and think he's the second coming of Hitler? Do you believe we should be giving children hormone blockers and allowing them to "transition" into make believe nonsense, likely sterilising them in the process? If not, you're not a "Lefty". You're just a left-winger or left-leaning person. "Lefties" are radical socialists hellbent on tearing the Western world apart.

How much time do you spend each day being outraged by the woke mind virus?

Depends on who many stupid posts/comments I come across from dumb Lefties πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ And I'm glad you acknowledged the woke mind virus. The infection's running rampant at the moment but it all stops in less than a week.

What's happening in a week? Something with the planetary alignment? It's supposed to peak in a bit more than a week though

Haha funny. You know exactly what happens. At least 4 years of no-nonsense America will have an incredible flow on effect to the rest of the West. People have already started to feel safe & confident enough to speak up again without the threat of being cancelled.

Do you sleep with Fox news on in your bedroom?

I don't have access to American television so I've never seen it.

I'm leftyish and I don't care.

Then you're not a Lefty. "Lefty" refers specifically to the socialist radical wokies pushing anti-Western agendas at every opportunity.

Me for one I don't like it and would never do it but whatever - someone like the OP sounds like his heart is in the right place. Flag waving like this has not always been a thing here and I always associate it with the more rank displays of excessive American patriotism. No offence to the OP at all I'm glad he likes it here and wish him well and I love this place too but there's too much nationalist bullshit going on these days.

There's far too little nationalism going on nowadays. We're taught in our schools to hate our country and that our history is nothing but evil. We are told that there is absolutely nothing special about being Australian and that somebody fresh off the boat that disagrees with everything we stand for as a people is equally as Australian as somebody whose family have been here for generations.

Get real - calm your farm - none of that is true.

It most certainly is true. During my public education I was taught multiple times throughout high school of the evils of the first fleet, the stolen generation, how bad the white man was. Is somebody who has come to Australia and believes the opposite to us but manages to get citizenship an Australian in your eyes? Because they are to many. Is Australian an ethnic group and if not, what is being an Australian?

My mate's grandfather used to kidnap indigenous children. He was objectively a very bad man. My mate even tells me how horrible and racist his grandfather was. The people who used to kidnap indigenous children were often bad people.

When I was a child I remember crowds of white people gathering outside the house of an indigenous family on the next street to scream racist abuse at them well into the night.

That's what Australia was actually like in many places. There's no point hiding the truth. Kids need to know different parts of our history. That's very different to teaching them to hate Australia.

Okay, do you believe that we should teach the barbarity and cruelty of aboriginals before colonisation? Should we teach about the prolific infanticide? The cruel punishments of spearing people in the leg, often for them to then starve? Or should we be hiding that truth?

wtf are you on about?! I'm all for teaching the good and the bad.

But we don't teach any of the bad about aboriginals in public education in Australia. It is incredibly sanitised.

You could always leave?

Thats exactly the sort of comment I was expecting and points to the dogshit mentality that this can represent. It's as much my home as yours c*nt.

That's conservative paranoia, bit like thinking someone's out there is banning you from celebrating Australia Day!

City of Greater Geelong 2022-2024 would like a word. Yes, some places have tried to stop people from having an Australia day.

Most of the inner city Melbourne councils too. Not sure about other states but the invasion day rhetoric here in Melbourne is fricking intense

Right wing conservatives aren't a things here we aren't America

If you want to celebrate the true Australia, don't fly that little British colonial flag. Fly or wear our green and gold, it's more Australian than the national flag and colours of Britain will ever be.

The Australian flag is our national flag you fly what you want to fly but don't start this colonial rubbish

"don't start this colonial rubbish" It's literally a British colonial flag. Its primary purpose was to appear British, not Australian. That's why it follows the same standardized template and color scheme as hundreds of other colonial flags throughout historyβ€”most of which now sit gathering dust in museums..

It is also appropriate to burn it, use it to wipe your arse or wrap it around a rock and throw it through your local MPs office window.

im an immigrant but if u hate Australia why dont u leave? this is the best country on earth no doubt

Eat an actual darkie.

Rule 4 - Racism in any form is prohibited.

Nothing wrong with that! I'm an American and I fly the flag wherever I go. I have an American flag jacket, American flag jeans, and several pairs of American flag undies (those are only for the ladies to see, lmao). I fly a big American flag off my pickup truck. There's no greater country in the world than America, but your country is cool too, so nothing wrong with being proud of it, I guess

That's a bit excessive. Especially off your "pickup truck", it's giving wanker.

I can see why you'd be reluctant to fly your flag everywhere, given your country's history. But America has always been on the right side of history, so you can never have too much flag!

Ah, you're a troll. Shoulda guessed

Is this a hybrid British and Austrian flag? Am American

It's literally a mix of the two, but ok smarty pants.

You know you can google what the Australian flag looks like right?

I don't trust Google.

It might have saved you some embarrassment in this case.

Just because I have a refined appreciation for privacy doesn't mean I have something to be embarrassed about.

Is it wrong to be proud to be an Aussie? Should we be ashamed?

Nothing wrong with a little pride, keep it healthy and it'll be a pride we all can enjoy, although not a lot has made me proud in recent years. A fair bit of the opposite actually.

|

The issue isn't pride in itself, it's how performative nationalism distracts from the real problems we should be confronting. There's so much in our history and present that demands accountability, change, and improvement. Wasting time patting ourselves on the back for some abstract idea of 'being proud' feels hollow when we could use that energy to actually make this country better for everyone.

You sound fun

|

Do you feel the same about people who fly the aboriginal flag?

If you have nothing else to be proud of yourself, it makes sense you take whatever given, even the location of birth xD

I'm proud of a lot. I also love my country. Perhaps you can go elsewhere if you aren't.

Wont change the fact that I wont ever be mentally colonized by any country to feel proud of a "location" That's not particularly relevant to individuals, only people who lack self worth and try to leech it from things bigger than themselves or dead people's achievements

Yea go ahead and celebrate your colonization. Maybe hike to the top of Uluru to celebrate!

Lol. These comments are stupid.

No, your ignorance is, someone should crack an egg on your head, buddy

recently I read a whore justify herself with evolution, and learned that the peepee displaces other men's c*m because we're born for free love. We're whores at heart, every womyn was a frick machine until fundies put us everywhere in chains.

This is based on a few studies, here's one

Results obtained by modifying an artificial peepee suggest that the coronal ridge is an important morphological feature mediating semen displacement...

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738470160e1iTHlnGwDsgfQ.webp

basically they made fleshlights and tested how well the plastic peepee removed semen from the tube. that's the kind of hands-on science we know and love :marseyclapping: :sciencejak:

but think about it, does semen really stay in there long enough that "displacing" after has a huge advantage? Certainly it's useful, but how much? insemination happens pretty quickly so the lingering sperm probably isn't going to inseminate her if the ejaculation didn't. And even then the rest is fully removed in five days. So either everyone was having Aella gangbangs, the returns are diminishing, or perhaps there's an alternative explanation.

The ones I found were "Structural Integrity" and "Pleiotropy" but those are anti-climactic

With the help of my friends, I've erected a fourth, and final, theory.

The blood plunger

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738470160JwMvx2ivqD9F5Q.webp

BLOOD is a bigger barrier to insemination than sperm I think. Since we've not always had lovey-dovey foreplay for some enjoyable, LUBRICATED s*x, I imagine vaginal trauma was more common. I.e. :rape:

After all, what big "sexual ingredient" isn't necessary at all for impregnation?

That's right, the female orgasm.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738470160E7jzxgq9lLSNyg.webp

Now look, I'm not exactly happy with this conclusion, I'm not an incel I have female friends, r*pe is bad.

But I do believe I'm onto something here for a PURELY MECHANICAL QUESTION without any ethical extensions.

A question posed and answered in the spirit of Die frΓΆhliche Wissenschaft

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738470160GLTAed-XSsRinA.webp

In short, the blood produced during s*x would prevent or severely inhibit insemination, and the peepee plunges it out.

Have I convinced you?

Now I'm not a scientist, but I do know the contact information for the real scientists who've published the original studies, and I drafted the following:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738470160NHh85gDYwe0aMA.webp

Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a lovely eurojank game where you play as a special-ed student who learns to swing a sword in Bohemia. It garnered attention upon its release for the lead dev's refusal to add Blak people to the game, for "historical accuracy", and he continued to play the chud after the game sold well. https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737345098cN8SgdaOm0TkmQ.webp (Montage of various chuddy tweets from back in the day)

However, the upcoming sequel has been struck with disaster - a leak showing the darkest Muslim man in existence lecture the player about how good Islam is hit the web and created a frenzy. Additionally, there was a rumour about an unskippable gay love scene between the canonically straight main character and some random dude.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737345095tcjzWXU3XRP2iQ.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737345096-AFNTiXG_5pogg.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737345097NTtyqDKHoG91Qg.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737345097vLt5SuEqt-oNbQ.webp

Naturally, this caused some panic among chuds. Was their hecking based Czech studio infiltrated? Where did it all go wrong?

They took to Twitter to pester the studio head, Daniel Vavra, to ask for clarification. Instead of an answer, they received non-responses in various forms https://i.rdrama.net/images/17373450972XpJ_MqatdbUDA.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737345098kic66ZsAtNE3OA.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737345098k9rKl4HjURuALg.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1737345098FpWu2yjbHgckiw.webp

Mark Kern has also become an enemy of the state, claiming the game definitely isn't woke.

I can guarantee that none of these r-slurs were going to play it anyway, particularly because I've not seen anyone mention this particular line from Kern's review: https://i.rdrama.net/images/17373450991OOAT_A9PeeDRw.webp

Combat is similar but easier than the first game

The real goyslop is in making the mechanics dumber so that hecking valid enbys don't cry when forced to learn a moderately interesting combat system.
