Considering they actually went through things worth worrying about

Yeah things like concentration camps, bigotry, white supremacy, war crimes, etc.

Thank god we don't have any of those today.

Is there a Lego set yet?

Nah, but some people have put it together on their own.

I remember the folding wing TIEs were in one of the Rogue Squadron games?

That'd be the TIE Hunter:

No shit Sherlock. And shes always been depicted as an Asian woman.

Ah sorry I just looked up some info and you are correct; she is Asian-coded (as they call it).

A TIE with folding wings?

Yeah it was in the last season as well. New for the Mando show, it's basically just as it appears; a TIE Fighter with folding wings so it can land more easily and the pilot can get easier access.

Geisterdrache posted...

Worth noting that Sabine is asian and Sasha...isnt. So would be a pretty big fuckup if so.

Sabine is Mandalorian. Her voice actress is Indian-American.

I thought most people used youtube and wikis now instead of the guides here

Text guides still get a ton of traffic.

I've got 16 million hits so far this year, and that's just me.

I dunno why anyone would believe the games run natively, they look identical to the originals + a texture pack and wide-screen hack

Exactly. Like, what did you think would happen?

Also today is the fifth anniversary of Undertale's release.

https://undertale.com/deltarune-update-092020/

tl;dr it's still ongoing and will be released all at once. Chapter 2 will likely be finished by the end of the year, but that doesn't include things like bug testing and porting.

I'm also fairly sure I was told some time ago that the upkeep for the site is peanuts compared to other similar sites on the Internet. The outdated nature works to its advantage in efficiency.

I'm cautiously optimistic/hopeful that they won't ruin things, but I've seen other cases of "everything is fine, we're making it better for the future" turn into the cereal dust at the bottom of the bag. Then you cough on the dust because it scratches your throat.

The difference is that there were dozens of options that were better than AIM at the time.

There really is nothing quite to the level of GameFAQs on the Internet. The amount of data here is massive.

Can someone maybe post a link to any example of her being the transphobic monster people are describing ITT? She actually said she believes actual trans people are cross dressing predators? Like Tim Curry in Rocky Horror or something more Lovecraftian in nature?

I refer back to my "goldfish" comment.

if this is transphobic then pretty soon it will be seen as racist to make minority characters criminals in fiction, Christ

If Tom Cotton were to announce such a novel, would you be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt?

Did you forget all the times she's been pretty blatant with her antisemitism? Fucking gringotts goblins based on Jewish stereotypes in the first what, 4 or 5 chapters of the first book.

You can get away with whatever you want if your supporters are fucking goldfish.

Things happen, but if you conveniently completely forget about them, they might as well not have.

It is weird, because she's clearly quite fluent, but she's also pretty obviously not culturally connected to America.

For example, once she became the baby shark in Maneater, the chat exploded with "baby shark doo doo doo doo" but she didn't pick up on it.

coolboy11 posted...

the amount of lotions and body washes marketed to men always gives me a good chuckle (I do buy some from time to time to be fair)

I mean if they're good they're good. I subscribe to Dollar Shave Club and while not hyper masculine, it is pretty handily marketed to men from a "nurturing outdoorsman" standpoint. I find the products work for me. Especially the razor and shave butter.

That "Death Water" though is just absolutely hilarious.

I used the word "truce" once in the context of our argument. You're the one with delusions of grandeur that this is a war.

And you're also the one referring to my posting in other topics. If you do not view us as enemies, then what's the point in trying to smear me with other conversations we've had? Calling me "a parody of SJWs"?

And now all you're doing is picking away at individual sentences and trying to cling to your own pride on this. Do you even care to discuss the topic anymore?

I told you what I view you as. A bad faith poster. A blockade on the road of proper discussion. Taking your misconceptions and using them as a shaky foundation for unsubstantiated attacks on other posters, long before I entered this topic.

No of course this isn't a fight, nor a war.

It's a lesson.

I exaggerated. Multiple people, and repeatedly would be more accurate, but enjoy your tiny victory.

TopKekBro posted...

all I said is that the term assumes its men who are guilty for this

And you'd be wrong. You were explained multiple times that women can be guilty of toxic masculinity, but you didn't care about that. You had in your head how the term is defined in your mind and accused everyone else of forgiving every woman.

And here we are.

Just as a note she ran unopposed. No one else was running in the Republican sheriff primary, she did, and she won by default.

This isn't really so much of a statement on Cheshire Country NH Republicans, but how in small races, it can be easy to get just about anyone in the running.
