 all strategy games should (by default) show other player's mouse cursors.
 players should treat them like units in the game. they should lead and command
 with them. they should talk to the other player, and visit and vview
 invormation as they will.

 another cool thing about FAF is that you can download a mod that shows the
 position of your cursor to other players. So weird how after a while all the
 cursors started staying permanently in the top-left corner.

 [2] players who played better should be compensated to a higher degree. no
 more than +/- 50-100% or so - this encourages players to "play their best"
 while also keeping the stakes relatively similar.

 That happens a lot with online people. You can only see one side of them, the
 side they present to the camera, and so it's difficult to find new ways of
 looking at them. Hopefully you can find the brighter sides of this person! I'm
 sure they exist, unless the person is spiralling. Then they'll often be
 pushing themselves first one way, then the next, but both directions point
 down... And that produces the ":(" feeling. Good luck!

 sometimes, comments need to go on the left side of text. Like for parts of the
 script which should be user-editable, the fields should all be right-aligned
 to the farthest required bit of text. Instead of [picture A] it should be
 [picture B]
an example script written in the bash computer language that has all the variables hidden behind comments on the left. makes it very hard to try new variables. the same picture, but the variables are moved to the right.  now it's easier for the user to update them since they don't have to use their mouse.

 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
 you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
 may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
 ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
 mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
 collective mind co-re-assigns.

 Checkers, but played with chess pieces, and every time you make it back to
 your edge from theirs you get an extra king. Oh and you can expand as far left
 and right as you'd like. And pawns can move two spaces left or right on any
 turn.

 it's important to ask whether the actions of your allies is valuable or
 impactful in some way.
 
 otherwise your team falls prey to the placement of "bait" which causes you to
 assume that the direction of attack is under control.

 In games, the one who takes the initiative often wins. Because games are
 designed to be symmetrical, in order to be fair.
 
 In more complex games, Paradox games for example, games where you look at maps
 or otherwise have unequal starting conditions simply due to the unique nature
 of each team, the initiative, while an advantage, is not necessarily the
 driving force that determines who wins.
 
 But it is an advantage, and they say that sometimes weeks happen in months and
 years happen in days or whatever.

 Would work best if it was "town square style" instead of "federated style"
 because federations are based on trust while town squares are explicitely
 based on geographic proximity. Which should be something you can scale easily
 (little slider on the side, oriented vertically up and down, that determined
 how close the comments you see should be)
 
 Federations exist in mastodon. But we still need a town square. We need the
 ability to visit other town squares, through the ability to project our voice
 as infinitely far as they'd like to listen. But we also deserve the capability
 to interact with those close to us on a topic-by-topic basis, aka each and
 every individual web page that the Internet sees fit to create.

 the rules. whose word is law, and the rules of the game are then given. the one
 who deals the cards, who picks the game, who hosts and brings snacks... you
 know, the reason the game exists at all.
 
 take star realms - there are actually three players in that game. player 1,
 player 2, and the invisible third player who plays the role of "chance". who
 decides the cards to play? is it random, or is it weighted? perhaps with enough
 oomph that a whole player was designed for that role.
 
 but how would they be scored? what kind of game is theirs to play?
 
    choosing the board is such a fun role, like designing a story or helping

 when leap-frogging, have each person use different ranged weapons. Then, as
 you come to each sight-line intersection, choose who goes first based on the
 size of the sight-line you're approaching.
 
 less important in a place like a suburb because the sight-lines are pretty
 similar.
 
 more important in a city or the country, where there are plenty of long-range
 lines of sight.
 
 also, keep in mind that the garages of suburban dads are like goldmines for
 the future backlines. So try not to blow them up.

 Steps to make a game waterfall style:
 
 Lay out all the data structures 
 
 Build methods which manipulate those structures (think getters and setters)
 
 Then build machinery which operates upon those structures using those methods,
 like game loops, cooldown timers, and status effects
 
 Then develop a way to present it to the player using UIs, visuals and
 graphics, narratives, sound, all that junk that's probably someone else's job
 anyway

 do it in a random color each time! Here's my implementation for viewing txt

some bash computer code which first picks a random color, and if the color is a bad combination (like, black front and black back, meaning you can't see the lines of the letters) then it redoes it and tries to pick a better one randomly. It'll keep trying until it gets a correct combination but honestly there's only like one or two bad ones that don't look so great

 conservatives think gender is assigning yourself to a particular social role
 
 liberals think gender is sort of an aesthetic and way of presenting yourself
 
 queer people tend to think of gender as how you feel and what sparks joy in
 your heart
 
 the truth is much more complicated and involves all three, and many more
 things besides.
