honestly? the fact that he dabbled in a few things, found out he was wrong, and then either changed his mind or at least shut the fuck up about it makes me like him more. idk how he ended up being an antigun socialist but maybe someone can talk to him about that too
What I mean is that they bully trans people into killing themselves and then try to treat being trans like a mental illness because of the suicide rate. Fun fact about the trans suicide rate: when a trans person is allowed to live out with the support of their community, it returns to within delta of the suicide rate for cis people. Trans people aren’t inherently any more suicidal than anyone else, and while we’d never be able to run such an unethical experiment I’d bet my house that if cis people had to deal with the constant bullying, othering and violence trans people deal with they’d probably kill themselves a lot more too.
Congress has approved legislation that would prevent any president from withdrawing the United States from NATO without approval from the Senate or an Act of Congress. The measure, spearheaded by Sens. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) and Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), was included in the annual National Defense Authorization Act, which passed out of...
This bill violates the president’s first amendment right to free speech because forcing him to do it is tantamount to forcing him to say he’s okay with doing it.
I’ll go first. Mine is that I can’t stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It’s like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds
shades of the Jamie Kennedy documentary where any time someone says they didn’t like Malibu’s Most Wanted he complains that he “worked really hard on it” as though explaining why something is shitty is just as good as making it not be shitty
If your game sucks due to design and implementation decisions that were made with sound rationale behind them, your game sucks. It doesn’t matter at all why it sucks, or that there’s no feasible way to make it better. It sucks. You can tell me that there’s no way to make it not suck, but I play plenty of games all the time that don’t suck.
what’s fortnite’s anticheat like? my understanding is that a lot of games that would normally have no problem running on some flavor of linux or another but their anticheat software requires some ridiculous level of privilege that linux won’t (and shouldn’t) give it
stop trying to “expose the hypocrisy of the right”. that only works if your opponent is beholden to reality and has shame. that’s not been what matters to them for over a decade now. you “expose their hypocrisy”, and they’ll just say “okay” and kill you anyway. they’re openly, nakedly terroristic christian ethnonationalists. they believe any evil they commit is good because god is on their side. if this was a chess match, the right has already flipped the board over and pulled out a gun and the left is trying to argue that bishops aren’t allowed to move vertically.

this is the root of your misunderstanding. diversity doesn’t require a plot hook, let people just be different and let people who are different in real life be represented in the media they consume.
This is a Republican majority. It’s the new math they use to make it so that when the Senate vote is 51-49 and Republicans are the 49 they win, or when they lose the popular vote for president they still win.
I wish there was some sort of award or acknowledgement whose gravitas was just one tier higher than an updoot so that I could give it to you right now for your flawless communication of the feeling this post created in me.
use proper grammar and spelling and express yourself clearly
this clause is incorrect. it should be “use proper grammar and spelling, and express yourself clearly” or “use proper grammar, use proper spelling, and express yourself clearly”.
there are links between hormone levels and certain character traits, but those hormone levels aren’t necessarily determined by sex and are 100% mutable in the modern era.
this got so out of hand at my local fest that they decided to do time traveller’s weekend as a theme. this year we went, and my costume was a cave man who hit his head on a tree branch while chasing a rabbit, woke up here and is amazed by everything
I wanna quibble with this just a little bit. People work. Left to their own devices, with their needs met, people will dedicate their energy toward generating value.
What no one wants to do is a job, which is an arrangement by which several of us have to do more in exchange for less so one of us can do nothing all day and then complain that “nobody wants to work anymore”.

There are some sadly misguided individuals who think LotR movies are actually good. This post will dispel that unfortunate delusion.
That tone of arrogant superiority is why. This is clearly rage baiting, it would have made it to the second sentence without insulting its potential audience if it wasn’t.
what happened to chapelle is the same thing that happens to so many has-beens: they realize that if they start parroting right wing talking points they don’t have to be funny or talented or anything like that and they’ll get instant access to an audience that will buy anything that affirms their worldview.
