what does it matter?

the "rules for thee, not for me" narrative doesn't fly just because they did it in a different era. they STILL did it. doesn't matter how many or how much, it was done.

oh they will be putting up with more NOW, indeed. Sony pretty much HAS to do something now. I expect more timed exclusives on LONGER windows of exclusivity. and that would be just business, like it ALWAYS has been, like MS buying up mega-publishers to hoard their IPs is, according to those MS cheerleaders...

MS did the SAME thing during the 360 and even the XB1 eras.

and yeah, those who cheered on industry consolidation with this will get a "enjoy your 70 billion dollar COD on game pass" everytime they bitch about Sony paying for timed exclusives.

It's a bad thing because they can't do it. Sony has tried 1st party titles, most of then flop.

You're wrong on every post of yours in this topic.

What movie is this?

It's just a common slang word used often in the way some talk in the ghettos. Along with the N word.

Some modern cartoons could give them a run for their money

They aren't rapists but they absolutely do sexually harass the Eds at pretty much every opportunity.

Unless forced kissing is considered rape, I really don't know. It's fucked up regardless

100% a stunt to gain more viewers. Just like that other streamers "stalker" who had no court records in the county he was arrested in, amazingly a dangerous stalker was just deported.

Court records are public information.

The topic about The Cosby Show.

cringe

Nah typically they're hiding their fatness and or uglyness.

while it helps, it doesn't stop people from finding out who they are in some cases,some vtubers have been stalked and harassed and so on

"Divisive concept" rules are a set of laws passed last year that include many concepts usually taught in courses like sociology, psychology and political sciences.

A bill that made its way through the Tennessee legislature aims to strengthen rules passed last year that can change how schools approach teaching many kinds of lessons in social justice, racial inequity, political science, social work, psychology and many other fields.
The bill passed the House of Representatives on April 13, after passing Senate on April 5.
In 2022, lawmakers passed rules that allow state leaders to withhold funding for schools that teach about social, cultural and legal issues related to race and racism. Most of those concepts focus on how the impact of racism affects people today.
The law also specified that schools can teach about ethnic groups' histories as described in textbooks and instructional materials. Educators can also only teach about controversial aspects of history, such as racial oppression or slavery, as long those discussions are impartial.
The bill, HB 1376, was introduced by Representative John Ragan (R - Oak Ridge). He previously said that the new bill was meant to strengthen the law passed in 2022 by "promoting freedom of expression," and keep "colleges about advancing knowledge, not about advancing political or social agendas."
Originally, the bill required institutions to publish a syllabus for each course offered in the semester on its website, meant to assess whether a "divisive concept" may be included in the curriculum. That requirement was removed in an amendment to the bill.
The bill restricts universities from using state funds for meetings or activities of an organization that "endorses or promotes a divisive concept." It also requires employees who support diversity initiatives to "increase intellectual diversity" and support students through mentoring, career readiness and workforce development initiatives.
Employees would be exempt from the requirement if the new duties conflict with other laws, such as Title IX officers.
It also allows students and employees who believe that the school violated last year's law a chance to file a report with the school. The school would then need to annually report violations to the comptroller of the treasury, redacting them as needed to stay in compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.
The bill would also specifically require universities to allow any guest speaker on campus regardless of "non-violent political ideology" or "non-violent political party affiliation."

Rep. Justin Jones (D - Nashville) spoke about the bill when he returned to the House of Representatives after he was expelled and reinstated. He asked a series of questions, such as whether "college students are mature enough to talk about race and systemic racism, some of the concepts you want to prohibit being discussed at the college level?"
"I believe in God. All else is settled by facts and data," Ragan said.
Jones again asked him to answer the question, but Ragan said he responded to the question.
"So, we're playing 'not-answer.' Okay," Jones said.
He also asked why the bill was introduced and said it seemed based on "white fragility and fears of the truth of history."
"This bill was brought to me by a dean of college education, in addition to another university contributed to this bill. That was my motivation, too," Ragan said.
He also said he did not want to name the person who brought the bill to him.
"How will we be honest about our history if you're prohibiting any concepts about America's racist history?" Jones said. "This sounds like fascism. This sounds like authoritarianism. This does not sound like democracy or freedom ... This member has consistently invoked God to justify this unjust, immoral and extreme, racist law."
Speaker Cameron Sexton (R - Crossville) stopped Jones from speaking. Rep. Justin Pearson (D - Memphis) also spoke after being reinstated to the House.
"This is a deeply concerning bill because it is continuing a pattern of practice that is harmful to all people," he said. "When you try to control what a person thinks, then you are assuming the role of God rather than allowing freedom of thought."
He said that the list of "divisive concepts" bars discussions on biases, white privilege and racism's role in slavery.
The bill passed by a vote of 68-26 in the House.
During a meeting on March 13, Ragan said he received complaints from universities in the state about an "overemphasis" of the original law at the expense of "intellectual diversity," which led to him proposing the new bill.
Representative Harold Love, Jr. (D - Nashville) previously asked if a conference focusing on Black history could still be held and promoted by a university should the bill pass. Ragan said it would be allowed as long as they "are not required to promote or endorse."

It's alright but there's not really a lot of music. It changes constantly though so you never hear the same thing for too long.

The duel / debate / back alley music seems a little out of place.

More spoilers:

The rest of the translation was not mostly fine lmao but it's good enough that you can understand it anyway.

Filipinos call people older than them Kuya or Ate (brother or sister) despite not being related to them.

Is the guy that Netflix had a documentary on?

Modern teenagers are seriously out of control. They just destroy things and look for conflict mindlessly

That's not a spoiler. It happens right after the opening cutscene. A spoiler version would be furry Link.

I don't think it's ever been confirmed that Nyango Star is Nao from MTH. Might be, who knows, but from what I can find they're still anonymous.
