  • If you like randomly made stories, you can try Rimworld.

    You will quickly find yourself asking very difficult questions. Is taking on the cripple something you can afford to do? Is using medicine on a less valuable colonist smart? Do you let some of your colonists starve, or start a war with friendly neighbors? Cannibalism will make your neighbors hate you and some of your colonists might rebel over it, but that’s better than some of them starving… right?











  • I never heard of this before, but I now know the word to describe exercise problems!

    Body builders who are judged by how bulging their muscles are feel like garbage despite supposedly being “peak”.

    People with high muscle mass or tall being screwed over by BMI targets.

    People who are told weight indicates health ignore everything else in exchange for lowering calories.

    Even in high school I remember how they would judge you based on like how many push ups you could do… no one who did a ton did proper push ups. Which led to them not helping at all as actual exercise, and even possibly leading to injury.

    Heck, we can even use this for stupid Dog Shows, where because they measure specific things for the “goodness” of the dog, they screw over the dog in every way imaginable that isn’t being judged.

    This is a good law to know. I like knowing this law. It’s sad how often it’s used, but it’s good to know.
