I mean RE5 was pretty much just RE4 with co-op. It's kinda hard to claim one is racist and the other isn't. All you do then is expose that only care about specific groups.

So then you do think RE 4 and 5 are both racist?

If you mix up the letters it's Nude.

Just thought it is funny that RE4 gets the pass.

What did RE4 have that was offensive? I played the Wii version many years ago, did it get cut out of that version?

Some of what people think is over-sensitivity is just changing tastes.

I never found HEY LOOK AT STEREOTYPE ASIAN HAHA! - to be that funny.

It's just a lazy gag that no longer works in a modern movie because Asians are not "exotic outsiders" like they were to the majority western white American audience in eras past.

So my take it I am against removing and re-editing movies to change gags and elements that "haven't aged well" but I see no reason to demand we keep using the same lazy and out of touch gags in new movies as a means to virtue signal.

I have been a Heidecker stan since Tom Goes to the Mayor... I just can't get into On Cinema.

No worries, I can always binge Awesome Show or Decker.
Also we need more BeefHouse!

Would you be angry enough to take it out on their kids and treat them like trash because their father did not pay?

I love how I have to pay for the sins of my dad borrowing money from everyone and my uncle's and auntie's not liking me because of what he did. Despite never borrowing a cent from anyone

Now you have to evaluate whether or not they deserve your respect for treating you badly without a concrete reason.

You don't have to break ties or burn bridges, but you also don't have to try and earn the respect of those who aren't being fair.

I like it now sure, but I don't like it at the peak of summer where its 2200 in the Midwest and just getting dark. I'd rather have it be dark a bit earlier.

Agreed, we need evening darkout time.

Leviticus 25:44-46

New International Version

44 Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. 45 You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. 46 You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.

I'm not the one covering my truck in both Trump and Confederate flags. Those people see something very appealing in Trump.

Numbers 31:1-18

New American Standard Bible

The Slaughter of Midian
31 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 Take vengeance on the Midianites for the sons of Israel; afterward you will be gathered to your people. 3 So Moses spoke to the people, saying, Arm men from among you for the war, so that they may [a]go against Midian to execute the Lords vengeance on Midian. 4 You shall send a thousand from each tribe of all the tribes of Israel to the war. 5 So there were selected from the thousands of Israel, a thousand from each tribe, twelve thousand armed for war. 6 And Moses sent them, a thousand from each tribe, to the war, and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war with them, and the holy implements and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand. 7 So they made war against Midian, just as the Lord had commanded Moses, and they killed every male. 8 They killed the kings of Midian along with the rest of those killed: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword. 9 And the sons of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and they plundered all their cattle, all their flocks, and all their property. 10 Then they [b]burned all their cities where they lived and all their encampments. 11 And they took all the plunder and all the spoils, both of people and of livestock. 12 They brought the captives and the spoils and the plunder to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the sons of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab which are by the Jordan, opposite Jericho.
13 And Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation went out to meet them outside the camp. 14 But Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the commanders of thousands and the commanders of hundreds, who had come from service in the war. 15 And Moses said to them, Have you [c]spared all the women? 16 Behold, they caused the sons of Israel, through the [d]counsel of Balaam, to be unfaithful to the Lord in the matter of Peor, so that the plague took place among the congregation of the Lord! 17 Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man [e]intimately. 18 However, all the [f]girls who have not known a [g]man intimately, keep alive for yourselves.

Kill every foreigner except the virgin girls which are to be thrown to the soldiers to have their way with?

Sounds like Trump to me...

Mostly because of his own words and actions.

Like, it's not complicated.

That's your interpretation. Show me where the actual god came down and told you what the rules for interpreting the Bible are. You are correct and every denomination you differ with is wrong?

Maybe Trump believes the vengeance and slavery and forced abortives are the most important aspects of Christianity in the Bible. You don't know.

Sure, but if thats a regular occurrence that might imply that you employed too many people.

Yes, a lot of these impossible obstacles are simply people being unable to imagine our workplace culture could be different and better. Sometimes it's something so simple and fundamental like hiring more or fewer people.

Depends on your intention.

If you have it in your mind you'll "see where it goes" and part of that is a romantic or sexual encounter and you have an exclusive agreement with your current GF- then yeah, you're cheating.

Can you provide examples from "both sides" to illustrate your point?

I don't really see this too much, I see hypocrisy a lot from one side more than the other, but no one is perfect and blameless 100% of the time.

For me, some $2 pasta sauce from Prego can be just as good as the fancy homemade stuff that takes 10 hours to make.

It's usually loaded with sugar as a shortcut to appeal to your tastebuds. Not saying it's wrong, but it's less healthy and when you cut down on sugars you do start to notice when they use them in products that aren't traditionally that sweet.

All that being said: Do I use cheap $2 or less pasta sauce in dishes?

Sure. Sometimes yeah.

I am glad he seems to have cut most or all ties with that ScreenRant company and all those guys that wrote half-assed plagiarized filler in main channel series...

But neighbor nerds is boring too. At least it's not meant to be the primary content in place of AVGN episodes.

I honestly don't care either way, but clearly if this were a B-list or lower celeb we wouldn't be discussing them coming back, though maybe a new reality show hosting gig.

For the record btw, I'm not atheist, I'm agnostic. The 2 aren't the same as the former firmly argues they know 100% there is no God.

I think the modern interpretation of what is an atheist or agnostic is kind of blurred.

I consider myself an atheist, but with the understanding that ultimately a hidden god is un-falsifiable and therefore theologically useless to anyone, and it's quite possible every religion is wrong but there still is some divine power we have been unable to detect but could be detected eventually. Even then...how could we know what we're even talking about until then anyway?

But in day to day relating to the world, I don't see any reason to believe a god proposition over any other fantastical musing like ancient space aliens, or that we're just part of a dream or simulation.

"Lol nintendrones waste money dumb drone lol NPC nintendrones...$60 port LMAO"

sir?

"Yeah?"

Your pre-order DLC special battle pass + enhanced repacked cosmetics as paid DLC day 3 incomplete un-patched edition of annualized online shooter or sports game is ready... for $180 and you have the opportunity to buy into more passes that may or may not be valid when we pull the plug on this game as a service in three months. Also the commemorative plastic statue shipped with a cracked helmet.

"Hot damn! Sign me up...hehehe Nintendrones are so dumb $60 for a port lolz. that's the only real abusive anti-consumer practice!"

Here's a thing that's bad and is bad across the industry and we should be discussing the larger problems that make game companies do this and clearly it works because people are still spending their money...

So let's instead make it about attacking a fandom that is exactly as bad as any other fandom in gaming.

Then it he created something that wasn't flawless. No need to finish the rest of that paragraph you wasted time typing.

Your argument is reaching comedic levels of gymnastics. If something is flawless, that means it has no flaws. The fact that "free will" can cause awful things by default says he created something with flaws.

That's not even getting into things like cancer, disease and even body design objectively have flaws which has nothing to do with "free will." There are species on this earth that are extinct which has nothing to do with "free will."

Then on top of that there's the philosophical implications of a god that is all knowing, all powerful, and timeless having foreknowledge of all creation through all time with the power to change it at will - being at odds with the very concept that freewill could exist for fleeting, mortal beings like us.

The implication being that this god would know every minuscule detail of every moment of your life the instant he willed the universe into existence or he is not all-knowing and timeless. You will be saved or damned according to their own dogma and rules before you think your first thought.

You guys gotta be trolling lol, nothing would hardly get done in 20 hours. That's part-time. And would come with part-time pay lol

This is how people used to think back in the days before labor unions got us more rights in the workplace and over our economic destinies:

You guys gotta be trolling lol, nothing would hardly get done in [40 hours. That's like how we work children in the mines]. And would come with [payment in company store scrip] lol

That mirrors a lot of my more centrist views too.

Thing is, none of those are single issue for me, though going to far to the right on Immigration is since we're directly dealing with the immediate fate of real people there. I'll take more lax immigration standards over cruelty and nationalism.

I suspect you probably lean that way too. I thought it was an interesting distinction to make.

I guess I'm more pro-military than most on the left, but that's because I see the military as an institution with potential for good while recognizing the inherent responsibility of wielding such destructive capability. A volunteer army in the hands of a well informed democracy can be a force for justice, or in the wrong hands it can be the enforcement mechanism for tyrants. But what underlies all of this, is the stark reality that the world has large conventional standing armies serving under every state system on every continent, and so should we.

Maybe cut the budget occasionally though...

I'm definitely to the right of most leftists on immigration. That being said, I am a little to the left of most democrats.

Not randomly hating half my family and friends and neighbors so internet strangers will like me isnt a I am very smart thing but okay you do you I guess

Did you guys know its possible to be politically opinionated without also being hateful and anti-social? And that gamefaqs isnt the real world?

Why would you hate your family and neighbors that have different politics?

Its very weird how much obsessed people on this site are with politics and hating people who disagree with then politically

It is both curious and concerning to me as well. I am very smart an that is my opinion.

Look, Im just gonna say, a MAGAts money is just as good as a Democrats.

For the RNC convention event, just going by the numbers if you have any group of MAGAs in your bar the chance that they are actual Nazi or white nationalist (hi Steven miller!), war criminal (Hi Bushes and Cheneys!), predators (hi Matt Gaetz!), or other genuine piece of shit is very likely.

But the correct answer is 1916 by Motorhead

That woman is both mortified at having her breasts constantly over analyzed by legions of online creeps, but probably maybe a little smugly proud of the fact that her boobs are a national debate.

2024 is weirdly silly when it's not horrifying

Also, the cut scene animations are a bit stiff, but when you play it out you see they were designed around the battle animations, they "feel" really good and visceral, more than most JRPGs where killing mobs usually doesn't have much impact.

weeb98 posted...

so during battle you just watch people duke it out or do you get to push buttons

I checked out the demo... you just watch.

But listen... I went in wanting to hate on this game.
I was skeptical when I saw it's no input battles...

But it's actually really engaging in ways that shake things up.

And I mean tax this South African embarssment down to a few tens of millions so he can still never know a real day's work.

The idea that Elon musk thinks:

A) that the racist shitheels on Twitter that lick his boots are a credible source for facts

or

B) that Don Lemon and people watching are too stupid to see through this pathetic response

... shows us that we need to end the concept of billionaires. People this foolish and un-serious should not have this much un-elected, unilateral power over our economic future.

Nurses only work 36 hours on average? I tend to think of nurses as the backbone of the medical field.

Honestly, it was labor unions who made that decision (because before unions, people were working far more)

It was a rhetorical question, but your answer is likely the largest contributing factor.

Now we should be fighting for less time working in the age of computers, instant international communication, supersonic travel, robotic automation, etc...

The people who own the means of production did not invent all those technologies they use and hoard through artificially depressed wages and an admitted goal of economic insecurity for the working class.
