  1. We are always dying. To ask the question or to infer it as a current circumstance is tantamount to redundancy. The key thing to remember is that some aspects of the community die faster than others, which leaves us with the pieces to construct something new. Such courses of development have been commonplace within GFL since its inception in 2011.

     

    I suppose even embers from ashes are more than enough to birth fires.

  2. Many assets for props in GMod are taken from Counter-Strike: Source. The most common way to circumvent this problem is to buy CS:S on Steam so that GMod can detect it and mount its assets, although this isn't the only method. Google is your friend if you wish to acquire the textures without owning a copy of CS:S.

    I play League quite a bit, and noticed we didn't have a League thread in the eSports section

    That's because we don't have a team of that kind for LoL. At present, our only team for that is for CS:GO.

     

    Making these kinds of teams isn't as simple as cobbling together five random people. There's a lot of consideration that has to go behind it.

    Trump is smarter than most people make him out to be.

    Why do Trump supporters overlook his cognitive dissonance? Given that he is prone to giving two contradictory opinions in the span of ten seconds, I find it hard to believe that he is intelligent.

    So I don't know what you count as "crying". But hopefully you're not suggesting that we just simply take his stupid and dangerous decisions

    "#NotMyPresident" and the recent delicious irony in swaths of Trump supporters regretting voting for him. It's one thing to oppose him (which I do), but it's another thing entirely to bawl like a baby because of it.

  5. I am honest in my admission that I favour prose over poetry, although that won't stop me from trying my hand. Here is a poem about the perfect imperfection of humans.

     

    Imperfectia

     

    There is an old saying that holds merit,
    In that humans are akin to clockwork.
    Bound to the limitations of what we inherit,
    Yet capable of spurring that which is yonder.
    Machines without halt, art without fault.
    Why is that, I wonder?

     

    We are speaking of something complex.
    Intricate, no doubt to a great vice,
    For if a piece of the mind falls under a hex,
    Lunacy becomes the bedfellow of wit.
    War without pause, spite without cause.
    Are we truly so unfit?

     

    Ah, perhaps such an account is dishonest.
    After all, one may be the disgraced tyrant,
    Whilst another opts to be the exalted pianist.
    The mistress of anathema breeds many a woe:
    Slaves without charity, tenets without verity.
    Is this all we have to show?

     

    Our shared future is neither bright nor dark,
    So please, free yourself from worry.
    Your only concern in this life is that creative spark,
    Knowing that your path is no longer a mystery.
    Songs without lapse, life without maps.
    A species to rouse the envy of history.
