Thank you. It wasn't a bad game, but I really disliked how it was all mission structures. I missed the ability to wander around the galaxy landing on random planets. Lack of weapon load-out was a downer as well. While I did enjoy the characters and their loyalty missions, other parts of the game were a bit too streamlined compared to what we got in the first one.

You're saying you dislike what virtually everyone, even ME fans, agrees is the worst part of the game to justify it being bad. It's cool if you like it, but don't act like ME2 is the problem when virtually everyone preferred not having to drive around mostly barren planets in an annoying ass vehicle to fight in the same 3 areas lol

I mean, the third post in this topic is a guy saying the exact same thing...

Because smart streamers know the general audience doesn't want things that stand out, they want the same thing they already know they like with a new coat of paint. It's why the MCU is a billion dollar franchise

Do I get bruce wayne money?

Rihanna was more famous than the other victims.

Also we got the photos of Rihanna's bruising ourselves. We haven't seen photos of these others brutalized. People care more about what they're shown rather than told.

It doesn't matter because at the end of the day, his point isn't "These guys should be punished too" it's that "I shouldn't be punished because these guys got away with it"

He does make a good point

That what? He should be able to nearly beat a woman to death because some white guys also beat women?

Good idea. I wished T'Challa survived Infinity War and Shuri dies instead. In Endgame, T'Challa works with the Avengers to find a way to get her back. Even joining the time heist.

We would have seen much more of Chadwick before he died.

He died shortly after that though, right?

Considering he was battling cancer at the time maybe he couldn't physically do more than what we got in end game.

The original Mario timeline ended with Mario World. The 3D games are actually a continuation of the New Timeline that begun in Mario World 2 where it was revealed that Mario was not from Brooklyn, but born in the world of the Mushroom Kingdom. In the alternate timeline, also known as the Baby Mario timeline, mario actually grows up to be big permanently thanks to regular eating of super mushrooms in his chilhood. In the original timeline, Mario's growth had been stunted due to a childhood spent eating nothing but spaghetti and lasagna.

This sounds so plausible it's scary

furb posted...

small form is clearly his normal form.

at least I always thought it was obvious.

But his normal form in the 3D games and the modern 2D games looks more like his super form.

Is Mario"s regular form when he has the super mushroom or when he gets hit?

I always assumed his super mushroom form was his main form, and his little Mario form was him depowered. Apparently it's the opposite?

Even outside of the ridiculous situation that people are doing this, the crazy thing is Abby isn't even unattractive. By video game/media standards maybe but she's still above the average person you'd see on the street.

She's just built like a brick shithouse. Which, to me, really only makes it better

About as much as I respect any worker I guess

They didn't have controllers though. The controls were on the system.

I dunno, my niece is 4 and if you show her a picture of herself as a baby she won't believe it's her.

Didn't he make a ton of money with bitcoin and bang a pornstar? I wonder if he cashed out or lost it all.

Have the courage to challenge your views

The courage to challenge your views that *checks notes*

Certain groups should be allowed to exist.

g980 posted...

And?

That doesnt mean they shouldnt publish contrarian pieces.

You should value exposure to opposition views even more given how much of the internet serves up shit specifically to appeal your existing worldview

Just because an opinion is contrarian doesn't mean it's good. Some people have the opinion that other races are inferior, some people have the opinion they should be able to have sex with whoever they want, regardless of consent. These opinions are certainly contrarian to the "existing worldview" but I fail to find any benefit in allowing it a platform.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._K._Rowling

Aware of the good fortune that led to her wealth and fame,[363] Rowling wanted to use her public image to help others despite her concerns about publicity and the press; she became, in the words of Smith, "emboldened ... to stand up and be counted on issues that were important to her".[364] Rowling's charitable donations before 2012 were estimated by Forbes at $160 million.[175] She was the second most generous UK donor in 2015 (following the singer Elton John), giving about $14 million.[365]

Long interested in issues affecting women and children,[366] Rowling established the Volant Charitable Trust in 2000, named after her mother[367] to address social deprivation in at-risk women, children and youth.[368] She was appointed president of One Parent Families (now Gingerbread) in 2004,[369] after becoming its first ambassador in 2000.[367] She collaborated with Sarah Brown[370] on a book of children's stories to benefit One Parent Families.[367] Together with the MEP Emma Nicholson,[371] Rowling founded the charity now known as Lumos in 2005.[367] Lumos has worked with an orphanage west of Kyiv, Ukraine since 2013;[372][373] after the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Rowling offered to personally match up to 1 million in donations to Lumos for Ukraine.[374] Later in 2022, during her advocacy against the proposed Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill,[375] Rowling stated she would found and fund Beira's Place, a women-centred rape help center to provide free support services for biological women[376] survivors of sexual violence.[366] She has donated several hundred thousand pounds to help women lawyers flee from the Taliban's control, helping hundreds of Afghans escape.[377]

Rowling has made donations to support other medical causes. She named another institution after her mother in 2010, when she donated 10 million to found a multiple sclerosis research centre at the University of Edinburgh.[378] She gave an additional 15.3 million to the centre in 2019.[379] During the 2012 Summer Olympics opening ceremony, accompanied by an inflatable representation of Lord Voldemort,[380] she read from Peter Pan as part of a tribute to the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children.[381] To support COVID-19 relief, she donated six-figure sums to both Khalsa Aid and the British Asian Trust from royalties for The Ickabog.[213]

Several publications in the Harry Potter universe have been sold for charitable purposes. Profits from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through the Ages, both published in 2001, went to Comic Relief.[367] To support Children's Voice, later renamed Lumos, Rowling sold a deluxe copy of The Tales of Beedle the Bard at auction in 2007. Amazon's 1.95 million purchase set a record for a contemporary literary work and for children's literature.[382][383] Rowling published the book and, in 2013, donated the proceeds of nearly 19 million (then about $30 million) to Lumos.[384][385] Rowling and 12 other writers composed short pieces in 2008 to be sold to benefit Dyslexia Action and English PEN. Rowling's contribution was an 800-word Harry Potter prequel.[386][q] When the revelation that Rowling wrote The Cuckoo's Calling led to an increase in sales,[191] she donated the royalties to ABF The Soldiers' Charity (formerly the Army Benevolent Fund).[367][388]

So, she appears to have lot of philanthropy endeavours, she is an idiot regarding trans issues, no one can debate that, but I really don't think she's Trump or Rupert Murdoch levels of evil, is what I mean

None of that means you can't call her out for having harmful opinions about trans people. If anything, it makes it worse, because she's set herself up as an icon of charity and good will then goes out and says shitty things about transpeople.

Nobody is going to take what Trump says seriously unless they're already deep into that rhetoric. The same can't necessarily be said about JK Rowling.

Is she a bad person? Not necessarily, but that doesn't mean these views aren't harmful or should be tolerated in any way, shape, or form

Medussa posted...

this is one of those things that people bring up without actually understanding what's going on.

iran isn't pro-transition because they are pro-trans. they are pro-transition because they think it's a cure for being gay.

That wasn't really my point though, I only mentioned it because someone brought up people using religion to justify racism and that the Bible never mentions it.

I said the bible and other religious books never specifically address being transgender either, and that's never stop the religious right from saying it's against God.

I used Islam/Iran as an example because if it was considered haram in the Qu'ran, they wouldn't allow it for any reason. It's just not something these texts touched on.

bigblu89 posted...

Not nearly at the level it is when it comes to anti LGBTQ+ rights.

For example, to the best of my knowledge, theres nothing in the Bible about mixing of the races.

I'm pretty sure there's nothing in the bible about being transgender either.

I'm pretty sure in some Islamic countries it's actually more acceptable have gender affirming surgery than be gay.

Lots of religious people don't actually care what their religion does or doesn't say, they just use it as a bludgeon to push things they don't like.

I dunno why people are acting like this is far fetched. Super Bowl is a huge event people get super passionate about, and a ton of them are also shit faced while watching it. If anything I'm surprised there aren't more of these stories.

Honestly, Tubi was playing a dangerous game with this commercial and I'm sure a lot worse happened to a ton of people who aren't in a position to post about it on Reddit.

Hoodroar posted...

But that's objectively true.

You can praise people for their generosity without pretending they made some huge sacrifice. $10 mil probably makes little effective difference to Michael Jordan.

I wonder how many people in this topic saying "That's like me donating $50!" don't even do that.

It's funny how I didn't realize until I was older Canada got a lot of It's own openings for cartoons. The only one I remember right now is DBZ though.

hockeybub89 posted...

Why then aren't people sued into oblivion for calling LGBTQ people groomers, rapists, pedophiles, etc and that they should be somehow taken care of?

Because people like JK Rowling have lawyers (as we've seen) and are very careful to make sure the things they say aren't actually illegal. It's unfortunate but it is what it is.

And it doesn't change the fact that someone being a piece of shit doesn't give you carte blanche to talk about setting them on fire

Of course it's luck, so is virtually ever other job in the entertainment industry.

This topic is too real for me.

I mean, these people's personalities are literally just carbon copies of each other. It's baffling they can accuse anyone else of being brainwashed. I can just hear this exact thing coming out of my mums mouth.

This^.

Has nothing to do with the stigma of being unattractive. Literally tell us ur a virgin without telling us ur a virgin.

Lots of religious guys choose not to have sex before marriage because of their beliefs, but they're still well put together. There's no stigma to that, because if they were willing to have sex they would.

Nobody who mocks you for being a virgin/incel is suddenly going to respect you because you paid someone for sex.

KhlavicLanguage posted...

i never really equated seeing a prostitute to losing your virginity. when people stigmatize virginity, what they're really stigmatizing is being so unattractive that you've never managed to have sex. paying for it completely misses that point.

Yeah, I remember one guy on here lost his virginity to a prostitute then started making fun of other people for being virgins. It was pretty wild.

I win
