Uncle Ben (spiderman) was right, with great power comes great responsibility. Berners are addicted to the corollary, the powerless have no responsibilities.

Being completely disempowered is a frustrating existence, but it is also a liberating experience in some ways. If you are a white millennial who works a job that is neither challenging nor rewarding (in a pecuniary sense) you've got lots of time and energy to devote to working yourself into a fury. In general I hate most of the people who use the phrase "virtue signalling" but it is an important and real concept when used correctly (instead of using it as a slur to shame anyone who wants you behave like a human being when you're on the alt-right). The berner-class has neither power nor the attendant demands and responsibilities so they get to spend all their time beating their chests and showing off to each other how woke they are. When you have no power it makes no difference whether you compromise or not, because your compromise means nothing, so they never have to compromise. They have gotten used to their comfortable little basement nests and when it comes time to make the sausage they are all shocked at the idea of dirtying their lily white principles with compromise. Lots of big talk about democracy, but their idea of the people sharing power is that all the people will share in their vision, not that their vision will have to accomodate equal shares of decision making from people from all walks of life.

[Spoilers] My experience of feeling powerless to slightly less power...less.

(First and blind run btw) I was going to take my cyclops down to the NW entrance of the Lost river where I found some containment area and a bunch of skeletons of the SD, But I was followed out by Ghost leviathan. In order to safely bring my cyclops down to the entrance I had made my first prawn and took it on a 500m drop down to fight face to face with it. After about 5 mins of intense repairs and poking him, I guess I got him angry and he left in a fit of rage. Now I have a small mini base at the scene of fight and upgraded my new Prawn with a depth module and grappler. Now I'm off to some place which I believe is called the lava zone, slightly less scared than I was with my sea moth. Any tips before I go down?

[Spoilers] Showing the brutality of the Northern army when faced with powerless peasants is a brutal but honest reflection on the reality of medeival war.

Some people in Twitter, YouTube and Reddit are complaining that Northmen sacking the city, killing innocents and raping women is out of character and not consistent.

In reality it's consistent with almost every medeival war waged in history. Just because their leader is more noble than someone like Cersei doesn't mean they're instantly a rated-E fantasy army. Middle aged armies looted, they killed innocents and they raped. Even historical armies which are sometimes seen as the good ones (French defeating the Moors planning to invade them and Byzantines against the expansionist Turks) all committed countless acts of looting and violence.

The thing about medeival war is that almost every side does cruel things, every side tortures people, every side isn't completely good. It'd be wrong to expect that just because their leader is a nice guy, all these bloodlusted medeival warriors will act like 21st century professional soldiers (even then, it's not like soldiers killing innocents is completely gone in the 21st century). Sacking and violence is inevitable. The show just never showed that side of war until now, but all that violence was already there.

Powerless characters in superhero stories are way cooler than normal superheroes and are more inspiring. They are also not useless just cause they dont have powers.

Everybody likes to shit on Hawkeye and Black Widow for being "useless" even though they've clearly shown to be of great benefit by improving morale and saving civilians while the superpowered heroes fight the big bad. Not only that, I geniuinely think they are way cooler and more badass than the other guys, these people earned their skills through hardwork and suffering without the help of any sci fi level technology or supernatural magic yet they keep up with literal gods and a billioanire who makes powerful robot suits, how is that not cool? It's not just these two too, it's any character in a superhero story that don't have a superpower, they usually always get shit on for being powerless despite all the badassery they pull off just 'cause they dont have superpowers. They are characters that were destined to be weak in a superpowered world yet through hard work they are considered worthy to be along side gods. I think these characters are not only cooler but even more inspiring since they earned all that they've got despite the odds.

Powerless (This is just a rant of Lux. I wanted to be like the cool kids and make something. Donโ€™t downvote Iโ€™m sensitive and will cry)

This is a warning that it looks kinda ugly. That is because it is meant to be kind of like inside his mind, so it is a really long ramble that keeps flowing into the next part with no real stops. I am sorry if you hate it. Also it's kinda short. If you have any feedback pm me and let me know this is my first one.

Since arriving, I have realized many things. One being that trust is rare here. Secondly that the people, or beings, here either have tremendous powers or are advanced fighters. Where does that leave me? If we were all brought here for a reason, why am I among the chosen? Maybe itโ€™s for my great looks. Perhaps it could be my magnificent farming techniques. It is all so confusing. I am still not convinced this isnโ€™t all some dream Iโ€™m having from being knocked out. It would make sense. Beasts, Fairies, Snake Men, Wizards. It feels like I fell right into a fantasy book. It would suck though. You know, if it all was just dream. There are some redeeming factors. Evren and Astral are fun. Probably some of the best friends I have ever had. You donโ€™t find people like that where Iโ€™m from. At least not easily. The longer I stay here the more I find reasons to never leave. I wonder, if I had a way to save my realm and return home, would I go back? I would be leaving my friends behind... Maybe they would come with me! It sounds like Evrenโ€™s home sucked. Astralโ€™s didnโ€™t end much better. To be fair, right before I got here I was leaving home to find where I was meant to be. Maybe Chertia is that place. It would make sense. The timing was perfect. Itโ€™s a possibility that whoever or whatever was bringing heroes here took pity on the kid who had no home and was in the process of being beat to death. Powerless then and powerless now. While I might be literally powerless, it doesnโ€™t feel the same here. Being powerless here still feels like there is some power even to it. It isnโ€™t easy having almost no skills. No one seems to mind. They donโ€™t care that Iโ€™m not on their level. The possibility being that Iโ€™m an easy target is always there, or itโ€™s because they like me. Astral did do that spell on me which has a possibility of giving me an edge. I wonder what it will be? A weapon or a power from inside... Which one would I even prefer? Iโ€™m not good at fighting and having a powerful weapon wonโ€™t change that. Too bad Gameboy... or was it Ghost? I donโ€™t remember which one I talked to. He needs a neutral name like Ghostboy. Yeah I like that. Ghostboy. I canโ€™t say that to

If I remember correctly, the descriptions of this other group don't completely give away who or what they actually are. The perspectives of what goes on all come from the villagers, like the butcher and/or shoemaker. There is a scene describing this unknown group eating an animal raw outside in view of the village.

I went 3 years without. I fucked up 3 nights ago. And the itch came back 10 fold. I canโ€™t get rid of the urge and I donโ€™t have anyone I feel I can talk to. I donโ€™t want to do it again. I feel so powerless. I feel horrible for doing it again after so long, and yet I want it again so badly. Fuck.

I canโ€™t believe I went back to it. I was doing so fucking good. I thought I was a different person. I thought Iโ€™d grown up. I thought I was managing. I thought I was past it. I thought Iโ€™d moved on. I feel so powerless and weak and out of control. I have so much derealization.

But Iโ€™d been doing alright. Iโ€™d been rationalizing myself out of the urge. Usually if I realize WHY I want to do it, i will instead manage that directly. Thatโ€™s how Iโ€™ve gone so long. My trigger is always change. When I have big change in my life, I cut. 3 nights ago though, I couldnโ€™t figure out why I had the urge, so i couldnโ€™t fight it. I didnโ€™t feel like anything had changed. So I cut. Looking back, of course, I know where it came from.

And tonight I know exactly why I want to do it. But I canโ€™t manage. I want it. So. Fucking. Bad. Itโ€™s an itch. I canโ€™t ignore it. I donโ€™t know what to do. I didnโ€™t think I was this person anymore. I had gone so long without doing it. I thought I had grown up. Iโ€™m so fucking sad about it.
