Nice. She should not be allowed to profit from her lies any further.

Plans to adapt Alice Sebolds memoir Lucky, about her rape as an 18-year-old, have been dropped, according to Variety.
The news comes after the rape conviction at the heart of the 1999 memoir was overturned last week. Anthony Broadwater had spent 16 years in prison after being convicted of the crime in 1982, based largely on Sebolds identification of him as her rapist on the witness stand, and on microscopic hair analysis by an expert tying him to the crime. The US Department of Justice now rejects such analysis, and Broadwater was cleared last Monday of raping Sebold. Im not going to sully this proceeding by saying, Im sorry. That doesnt cut it, said the Onondaga county district attorney, William Fitzpatrick. This should never have happened.

cartoon work is hardly a divergence from anime.
also your anime style has an obvious western tint to it.

try drawing realism, both face and body. Across multiple angles and poses.
try drawing realistic backgrounds like a whole city street.

now try doing that over many multiple iterations of work. Tell me how that goes. Tell me if you can even do that .And if you did manage to, how much you'll still enjoy drawing

i don't have a dog in this fight, but can you demonstrate your expertise or work? your qualifications to be arguing with an actual professional artist and also to be critiquing his work and proclaiming his own limitations?

Theyre changing it from Duke Ellingtons name to Chappelles?

How did I miss this? Lol. Guess its my fault for getting more caught up in the insane postings these articles bring rather than the article itself

They were going to rename the theater after him already but delayed because it coincided with the attempted cancel job right after The Closer came out.

Dave Chappelle's alma mater, the Duke Ellington School of the Arts, is standing by the comedian despite recent backlash. In a statement issued on Sunday, the school said it will rename its theater after the comic regardless of his fundraising challenge. The school also called reports of his tense visit "inaccurate."

Chappelle, 48, has been engulfed in controversy since the Oct. 5 release of his Netflix special The Closer in which comments he made about the transgender community sparked outrage. The Duke Ellington School of the Arts initially postponed its renaming ceremony. On Saturday, Chappelle said he'd "step aside" from the honor if his critics donate more to the school than his supporters.

"While we appreciate Dave's impromptu and spirited fundraising initiative, we stand behind our decision to honor the wishes of our co-founder, the late Peggy Cooper Cafritz, to name the theatre after Chappelle," the school said in a statement. "All donations will go towards arts programming and every donor, irrespective of their support or opposition to the theater naming, will receive an official thank you from our team."

The school added, "Chappelle cares deeply about Ellington and its students and regards them as family. He made an unannounced visit before the Thanksgiving break to meet with his Ellington family and to hear directly from the few students who have concerns about his recent comedy special, The Closer. He also wanted to directly express support for their safety in light of some disturbing online comments targeting the Ellington community."

Chappelle held an hour-long Q&A session at the Washington, D.C. school on Nov. 23 with hundreds of students in attendance. There were multiple reports about his surprise appearance with The Washington Post claiming some students and parents were upset.

"While there has been extensive media coverage about the theatre naming and Chappelle's most recent visit to the school, the source stories that have gone viral have been inaccurate, devoid of context, and neglected to include the nuances of art," the school stated.

I think the wishes of the school should be respected.

Nintendo has no competition whatsoever since the DS and Wii came out. If you even argue with that, you have some bent, twisted personal issue with them. Everything else is their own separate lane or market and the biggest decision about Nintendo and some other thing is if you'll own them both. That is it.

The sales of their hardware prove it. The only thing that could force them to reduce their (already low) prices would be if the product sucked and didn't sell well. Customers have no problem buying their stuff worldwide at the price they ask, so why should the question even be asked?

All versions of the Switch could be priced another $100 more and still sell well. They're selling amazingly at their current price.

Lol, sure. Because random bitches with inflated egos love to hear you don't want to see them again because they're only good for sex or that you can frankly do better than them for a girlfriend and they aren't as smart, pretty or interesting as they think they are. They'd love to hear that you're not that pussy starved moron who has to blow smoke up her ass for hope at a chance to sniff some booty.

Losers like TC are totally fine hearing that girls have no sexual attraction to them at all and are even slightly repulsed, that she was using him for time filler and food, that he was too boring and killed any tiny sliver of interest within the first 20 minutes, that her interest in him faded out during their weeks long pen-pal bullshit and she does this to everyone except the guys she gives her address to right away because her pussy is throbbed upon seeing their picture.

Yea, it's much better for the fragile losers of today to hear the truth instead of being let down easy, sure.

The soft lies no longer work in today's entitled world of morons who won't take no for an answer. It is best to just disappear.

Yeah, I'd just get a prebuilt at this point. So set a budget and try to get the most bang for your buck with that.

Main specs to look at are video card, CPU, RAM amount, and SSD that's large enough

https://www.userbenchmark.com is my go-to site to compare video cards and CPUs

RAM I would get at least 16 GB
SSD at least 1 TB

This site is objectively biased beyond belief for comparing products because of the overt bias in favor of certain vendors and they even change their metrics and formulas in order to show slower products from their favorite brand as faster than the competitors better product, anyone still using it is dumb.

Go to the PC board.

Is that not the progressive view on them? That they were born that way and can't change their attraction but should receive therapy to make sure they don't act on it?

It's the stepping off point for liberal crusaders without a cause and also undercover pedophiles. They can get help right now privately with no fucking issues. By the time the public learns of them they're already criminals so what is the point of the push to "de-stigmatize" pedophiles? People aren't hijacking a news station and breaking down on air in some tearful confession.

There is only one goal in a public campaign for them, that's to make them the latest branch of marginalized other that we must accept and "respect".

This professor foolishly thought that the overton window had shifted enough that they could advocate for destigmatizing pedophiles.

They can try to frame it as being about protecting kids, but destigmatizing something is just one step in the process of trying to make it socially acceptable.

Yep. After it's socially acceptable, the natural progression is for them to be their own minority group and demand rights. And the only right a pdeo lacks is the right to work and live freely around their prospective victims.

but there are so many other ways now that don't involve wasting someone's time and stringing them along.

Stringing along would be the girl continuing to engage with him and keep talking and set up more dates.

If you are involved in a road incident never drive home if the person is following you. You dont need crazies knowing where you live. Drive to a police station instead and theyll disappear.

I suspect this person was trying to go with the "there are pedophiles who can't control their sexual attraction in the same manner than people who are heterosexual can't control their attraction to the opposite sex, etc etc" argument. I heard it several times from patients when I was on psych rotation in med school.

Personally, while I do agree it's possible to have vile desires that you choose not to act upon, the fact of the matter is that people who self-identify this way are almost never doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. They're doing it because they want to commune with other like-minded individuals.

And they want to become a designated minority group free of "the stigma" so they can work in a children's hospital some day.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/ex-kansas-officer-sued-sheriffs-184852968.html

Lionel Womack came from a law enforcement family. His wife and mother are police officers in Kansas City, Kansas, and his stepfather is a retired police sergeant. Two aunts are city police dispatchers.
His wife, Zee Womack, tearfully told The Associated Press that her husband was killed in the altercation and that at least one of the officers involved knew him. She declined to comment further because she is still employed as a Kansas City police officer, and the investigation is ongoing.
Lionel Womack alleged last year in an excessive force lawsuit that Kiowa County Sheriffs Deputy Jeremy Rodriguez intentionally drove over him on Aug. 15, 2020, in an incident that was captured on dashcam video. The deputy has denied the allegations and said hes entitled to qualified immunity.
The family of Lionel Womack thanks the members of the Kansas City community for your outpouring of support after their devastating loss yesterday, said Michael Kuckelman, the attorney representing him in that lawsuit. They are asking for privacy and your prayers, as they grieve.
Police spokesman Thomas Tomasic said we were all friends with the guy, adding that everybody knew him and nobody had a problem with him. He said officers didn't know the 911 calls involved Womack until they arrived at the scene.

Thoughts?
