Oh very true, I forgot about it. It’s definitely very related to philosophy & mythology a lot. I personally never been so interested with that aspect hence I forgot. But it does pique my interest quite often enough when watching such videos. I often noticed even much later religious communities developed their philosophy based on more ancient philosophy foundation, which neoplatonism is one of such idea that I hear a lot. And so about how a lot of abrahamic religion are adopting/build their system based on or against various ancient mesopotamian myths, culture, and systems.

But I personally have been more interested to the history & evolvement aspect of things, like how the Bible differs in various times in different locations. How early Christian & Muslim had their sort of “figuring out” eras during their early times respectively. Or how does Judaism evolved from Canaanite theology, from a pantheon to henotheism, to eventually become monotheism.

This also overlaps to linguistic as well sometimes, used for example to describe various Indo-European gods appear in various culture are related linguistically. Although, I don’t really follow any linguistic channels since they really are (well, obviously) about linguistic, not religious studies or history focused.

Im about to become a slut in a few months.

I might be in a niche. Here’s my fav, Religion for Breakfast, Let’s Talk Religion, Esoterica, Al-Muqaddimah, Tablets and Temples, Useful Charts. Not religious but I like Religious Studies because it’s overlaps to history.

In addition, the Crash Course series to Religious Studies by PBS is also very good.

Also few history channel, Dan Davis History, A Historian’s Craft, Kings and Generals

for me Stadium is a bit of a good middle point to ever enjoy smething close to moba without really getting into a whole new game like dota with all of the complex stuff. So it’s a bit of a refresher from Quick Play. Then I never bothered to play the normal Competitive.

But content-wise, it’s not drastically transform every abilities but few things are funky enough. like Reinhardt can fly, Moira can spam multiple orbs, Mercy can have dps build while also heals, Juno can almost launch torpedos every second when lucky 🤣

I main Kiriko but she doesn’t seem to have significant changes.

But few things are real annoying like Soldier gets auto aim after using abilities, Freja is also more annoyimg in general compared to QP.

Overall I can only play 1-3 Stadium games a day though. It’s competitive & intense. Quick Play is more relaxing.

Apparently matchmaking in Stadium is non-existent yet so it’s definitely annoying when I get to team up with lower ranks team against higher ranks team.

oh mb, I was only quick skimming the sidebar, didn’t realize there’s a paragraph that says no theme and directly compares to 196 im terms of vibe (for the lack of proper wording).

I thought this community was about specific niche like tv shows, judging by the name “onehundredninetysix” looks like tv show name, but I just realize is just 196 😭

And thats why I thought the cartoon artworks on the profile pictures of the post are the show’s characters 🤣 but I’m pretty much clueless about what’s going on.

probably because it uses the Autodesk Stingray engine which, this is more interesting than the Lua usage. It’s a dead engine for long while but I’m surprised to find people who still just use it.

knowing the context that the person who said “lets go” is gay (as in homosexual, not insult), finally made me understand the whole thread.

edit to add: ooh I didn’t know what is this community, I just browse the locals feed. hi guys don’t mind me I’m just passing.

the rise of LLM companies scraping internet is also, I noticed, the moment YouTube is going harsher against adblockers or 3rd party viewer.

Piped or Invidious instances that I used to use are no longer works, did so may other instances. NewPipe have been broken more frequently. youtube-dl or yt-dlp sometimes cannot fetch higher resolution video. and so sometimes the main youtube side is broken on Firefox with ublock origin.

Not just youtube but also z-library, and especially sci-hub & libgen also have been harder to use sometimes.

been doing escapism to overwatch 2 since march 17, which I don’t know how does it really affect my mental health. I get real mental breakdown from work, then burnout & unable to be productive, but not at all from losing streaks of games.

I took Age4 Sultans Ascend DLC and Cossacks 3 in previous sale before winter because I ended up with a bit more money. Somehow I didn’t spent much money as usual in October, cook food on my own instead of buying cooked food.

I don’t really have any other wishlist now. Instead I really want to make my own rts game but I have not been able to be productive nor playing Cossacks 3. But I did spent a bit more time with Age4.

wow I completely forgot about halloween and the steam sale.

Hecking naraya. I didn’t know they were making other products. The Naraya Soya drink advertised to be free/gratis in that top-left tastes terrible though 🤣 it tastes mostly water 😭

tell me why you cry and why you lie to me

(As per K&G youtube channel) I learned that when it comes to believe system, the Mongols believe that everyone worships the same god, Tengri, but in varied way in every culture/religion they encounter.

They believe that as long as everyone submit themselves under the Mongol rule, it means they obey Tengri/Mongolian god.

There are various religious communities inside the empire but they also don’t bother to do the worst thing possible to obliterate anyone who doesn’t submit to Mongol, regardless their believe.

But I think in a smaller level it’s also not as simple/straightforward as that. Mongolian Shamans also known to have conflicts with the Khan. Sometimes the Khan kept asking the Shamans to do a ritual over and over again until the result aligns with the Khan’s desire. Or sometimes the Shaman (being a regarded class in their society) have their own political motive to do something against the Khan.
