(I know she's a robot in SC2 but maybe the SC1 designers had a different vision) 100% thought she was a cyborg. Truly missed her presence. As much as I enjoyed SC2's individual mission maps (their designs were great) the world building was much more lacking due to the increased specificity of the mission briefings mixed with the intense abstraction of the sense of time. BW's abstraction of the mission briefings meant you had to piece together who you were, and where you are, and how much time has passed based on the exposition provided. The exposition then allowed your imagination to sync the current and prior missions together to form a narrative arc. The choice burdened system of SC2 made it feel that you were just wandering around taking your time instead of actually progressing through a narrative arc. If they had placed a time element to the campaign it would have made the forced decisions feel more impacting. Little things like making it so you could only choose X number of planets before it was too late. Or if your side missions were choices spread intermittently throughout a more rigid campaign structure would have given a sense of urgency and sacrifice whenever you had to do a side quest. Yeah she really looks like a cyborg. When I was a kid she made me think that terran were evil. But Terran ARE evil...
hahaha true

Would it be possible to create a real Catdog? What design barriers need to be breached? Do we insert a shared ass hole, or does each half get one of their own? Do they have one asshole but a shared gastrointestinal tract? How far can science go?

Note: I only know stuff about humans, so this is purely extrapolation. Genetic compatibility, immunologic compatibility, more or less all of the organ-systems need to be in some way modified - especially the neurological, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal would likely cause issues (could potentially have two separate, but that poses some challenges in itself).

yeah rape culture is still a thing do you even read what other people write or do you just use it as a launch platform for your next ramble?
This is not a male/female issue
yeah of course I didn't mention genders or anything. again.... who are you having a discusion with if you dont read what they write.
At what point did I state that the problem is half the planet?
The west is the west not approximately half the planet?
People such as yourself get fairly riled up about it. okay wow i just came here for discourse but im feeling really attacked right now.
you managed to say a lot of things for some reason, little of which i ever disagreed with but i would like to redirect you to the question i actually asked.
the west dislikes consent? where did you come up with this idea? we went through fetishes, then you said maybe the east does too, but im wondering what made you start to call this half of the planet rapists.
EDIT: i can see you nitpicking the half the planet thing so to make things simpler why are you calling people that live in these countries rapists

Then you have to evolve and adapt every single word. Only then can we acheive true enlightment. To answer your question, look to the changer of ways, that way the path is to follow, and so the opening occurs, the fluidity is expanded. If you are disinterested in discourse it is easy enough to simply stop speaking. If your goal is to ridicule you could simply keep it at PMs and not clutter the thread. I can be disinterested in your comments regardless, but you could at least keep your illogical comments away from the main site. That's strange. I thought you view that being cognizant and curious about why things are perceived truths is fruitful to the evolution of human understanding. That being willing to think about why we think about things in certain ways leads to a deeper understanding of ourselves. Being unwilling to accept the fluidity of human perception and understanding is mundane and simplistic. But here you are insulting and trying to shut down discourse of others. Wherein, you show yourself, as being the one truly disinterested in discourse. I can't be the only one finding it mildly amusing that you claim to have an open mind, yet seems intent on telling everybody else to shut up and trying to drown out everybody else's posts by sheer volume. I have gone days without responding, only to pick up the continuing conversation, whilst you yourself continue to insist that everybody is wrong, you hold the one truth, and spew your verbal diarrhoea everywhere. Defining the core topic of a discussion is not only important--but is the starting point of all dialogue. Until the both of you know what the topic being discussed is, there will always be empass. You are convoluting that convention by asking for definitions of base sentences at their core. And as much as linguistic phenomena's interaction with grammatic architecture interests me as a subject matter, deflecting the conversation away from its core topic in an attempt to feel intellectually superior is not only in poor taste, but does nothing to move dialogue forward. Hence why I asked that if your goal is to simply change topics without ever sticking to the subject at hand, please do so in PM so as to prevent your structureless dialogue from disrupting this thread with incoherencies. That is the opposite of silencing you by the way--unless people asking you to speak in private is what you would consider censorship. Another thing--how does asking people what they mean count as holding myself as the one truth? If I held myself to one truth I would simply be telling you what I think is true without asking for clarification, testing new argumentations, or even trying to restructure the argument as new data comes into being. That's the point of discussion--to ask questions, to ask people to look at the words they use, the truths they hold infallible and asking them why it is they think that way. It requires re-exploring things assumed to be true and actually looking at it again, not with your biased history of conclusion, but with new eyes. Don't play innocent and coy all of a sudden. We both know that you have no interest in discourse from your attempts to disparage and insult everybody else. There is no starting point of dialogue as your very dialogue is an attempt to halt discourse. In this forum, in this thread, most people are able to communicate as they use commonly used definitions, or clarify their definitions, and so communication is faciliated. In your case, you appear to have a deliberate policy of personal definitions, known only to yourself, to only be communicated one way. Wherein, this is communicated, so the dialogue can move forward, you act like a spoilt brat, stubbornly sticking to your unchanging set defintions, to the extent that you change every single other meaning of word to fit your own rigid template, in this case claiming not only a personal definition of warlord, but that of to lead, and of war itself, and every word in between used, claiming that you are the one true seeker of truth, calling everybody else stupid, when they are trying to communicate what could had been an interesting topic of discussion, but due to your egotistic urge to spew garbage, descends into your insulting of everyone else. Don't you feel ashamed or embarrassed for yourself thievingmagpie? Or are you truly oblivious? That you are the blind man you claim everybody else is?
You being insulted by my statements does not make my statements malicious. As Stephen Fry says: "It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights." because, as he continues "It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that.' Well, so fucking what."
For me to ask people why they think their understanding of things is clear to them is the opposite of rigidity--what could be less rigid than someone wanting to learn more from others. What is could be less rigid than being willing to point to the inconsistencies of supposedly common understandings to try and find the deeper truth to that subject? To ask people to think of their assumptions past just their statement and to ask them how they actually use those definitions moving forward, how do their definitions work when put into practice, and how do they respond when resistance or variance occurs to that definition in order to see whether or not their understanding is wrought from their deeply thinking about the topic or simply from their assumptions of a topic is the whole point of research. To assume you don't know what you know, and to question what is assumed to be unquestionable.
If people find it offensive to do that, it is not my responsibility to make them feel better about themselves.

Once you got through those issues I'm guessing there would be reproductive issues. Like a horse and a donkey can have mule but the mule can't have babies mules (I think)
Also I'm allergic to cats but not dogs. Would I be allergic to Cogs and Dats?
Also, I get I go to far because it's fun for me. But lumping me in with TM is a bit unfair. I mean I argue with him because it's hilarious. But he argues with absolutely everyone about anything. He doesn't care about the topics, facts, just where he can use big words (some times correctly) and they all descend to him insulting the other person when he gets backed into a corner because of unwillingness to ever admit fault.

I see the confusion then.
There are 1.5~ Billion people in the west. Add another 144 million if you add Russia. There are 4+ Billion in Asia.
So when you say "Half the planet" then I think you mean women because western culture is not half the planet. There are isn't simply 2 geographical divides in cultural shifts. "Western Culture" and "Eastern Culture" varies differently from "Middle Eastern" Culture, "African Culture," and even "Islander Culture"
So when you say half, it's really hard for me to assume that you meant anything other than women. Which makes your argument that I am accusing "half" the planet that I am accusing men. So of course you would seem super defensive to think my comments about western culture would be an attack on men--hence why I even started the comment of: "The west includes women (FYI)"
You then use this as an argumentative case: "I believe consenting adults are allowed to exercise their fetishes even if the fetish is playing with the idea of not giving consent."
Which makes it important to show you a big difference between the fetish community, and the non-fetish community. Consent in the fetish community is important--even in pretending not to give it. Consent in the non-fetish community is understood as a gray area and people will argue its normal to get drunk and fuck without assessing consent prior or during.
This is where confusion comes from, as when there is miscommunication, one will side with cultural expectations and the other will side with what they actually said. Because we are not in a culture that emphasizes clarity on this--we assume that its a super gray area when it shouldn't be. That is a simplified starting point on western culture's influence on consent. It gets deeper once rape culture and misogyny in the west gets included as well.
And yes, I did know you had said you agree rape culture exists. It's the reason why I said: "if you do believe these things to be true--then is it not possible that these historical truths could affect how humans within that cultural zeitgheist would behave with each other such that it perpetuates these historical truths?"
As for the east--I don't have enough knowledge of what they do there. Same with Africa, same with the islands of fiji and somoa. I will not assume that they act one way or another until I learn more. If you know much about rape culture in those places--please enlighten me.

see edit and answer the question please.
EDIT: or are you retracting your statement that the west dislikes consent and rephrasing it as "is it not possible that these historical truths could affect how humans within that cultural zeitgheist would behave with each other such that it perpetuates these historical truths" and possibly not including literally everyone in those countries as rapists.

The culture that pervades those areas have a history of misogyny, violence against women, and encourage a cultural resistance to transparent and clear consent. Women in that country are made to understand that history of violence towards women. The women are then shown a rape culture that often places burden of survival on them. Who shares responsibility of wrongdoing with not just the rapist but also within the topic of the woman's clothing, language, friendliness, and social status.
As such, when the culture tells women they shouldn't be super clear on consent, who are told violence will happen to them, who are shown over and over attacks on women who report rapes--it creates a culture that only has one primary conclusion on what it encourages.
There are people within that culture who attempt to resist that, who ask for there to be more transparency in communication, who ask for stricter and more enforced laws against violence (usually domestic), people who point out how much western culture infantilizes women, belittle women, and kill women. People who want this cultural norm of the threat of rape and violence to not be considered normal within the west. But the existence of resistance to these norms is not proof of the absence of these norms.
Western culture, for the most part, is just culture. The West, is merely an archaic imperialist term. Demarcations of social group who have historical and modern issues with women. Do not confuse western culture with The West (global) nor with The West (US National) for they are all very different things.

I have a lot of positive and negative assumptions about Cultures outside of my own; I don't want to misrepresent them due to lack of research.
I also don't think "it could be worse" or "but other cultures hurt women too" is a good enough reason to stop striving to be better.
