Topic | Just finished Gurren Lagann yesterday |
Esrac 12/30/18 9:16:42 PM #11 | SpriteLimit posted... Esrac posted... I'm not going to get into an argument about your bad taste in anime on my lunch break at work, but are you serious, dude? Did you not notice Simon's development from a weak willed child who depends entirely on Kamina to a capable leader and his own man? Or Rossio developing into a man who would doubt and betray his allies and abandon most of humanity for a small chance to save any, before finally regaining his trust in Simon? Did you not notice the battle against Thymilph that killed Kamina? Or the battle against Lordgenome that Simon barely scrapped by on? Or the battle against the Anti-Spirals that killed half of the pilots, including Kitan's sacrifice? The final battle that cost them Nia in exchange for freedom from the Anti-Spirals? Just off the top of my head. --- |

Topic | California organizers cancel Women's March due to 'overwhelmingly white' partici |
Esrac 12/30/18 4:25:52 AM #69 | Favorite posted... CrimsonRage posted...Hulkasaurusrex posted...The far left can't help but cannabalize their own. They will always lose because they only were taught what to think. They can't think for themselves and nuance and critical thought are foreign concepts. He isn't really wrong. The political Right does tend to favor keeping things simple and maintaining conformity. Though that isn't always a bad thing. It's part of the conservative tendency to favor order over change. Part of the reason we see so many instances of the Left "eating itself" is part of the nature of political progressivism. Because each generation is a little more progressive, they shift the overton window left little by little. Until positions that were considered progressive yesterday will be centrist today and conservative tomorrow. So to speak. Goats posted... One of the organizers did an AMA on reddit earlier. I'm on mobile rn so I can't be fucked to try and browse reddit rn to find it. Apparently the article is fake news and the real reason it was cancelled was because the organizers were getting threats on social media koffing Did this news article make up the quotations from the Women's March press release they have? If so, that would be pretty egregious. Not to say that organizer is lying, but they might be playing damage control and "we were threatened online" is an old tune. --- |
Topic | why are damage moans from female characters in video games so sexualized? |
Esrac 12/30/18 3:48:11 AM #6 | I don't think they generally are. I recall a video by Liana Kerzner in which she recounts a conversation with one of the developers of Tomb Raider. She apparently asked him about this kind of thing in that game and his response was that they just used the sounds made by the voice actress during motion capture. --- |

Then you need to watch the video more closely without the crazy bias goggles on, because you're seeing things that aren't there, dude. More specifically, you're saying the employee is refusing to use the preferred pronoun, when they clearly are trying to, but stumbling over it. Probably because as others have said, when you're looking at a masculine looking person yelling at your in a masculine sounding voice, you aren't naturally going to use feminine pronouns. Especially when he probably hasn't even had to interact with a transperson before, let alone one acting like a lunatic. --- |

The video ends shortly after the clerks says he's getting the number for the customer, but the customer storms out first threatening to tell the whole LGBT community. And he switched back to "ma'am" again. You're being disingenuous if you're trying to frame it as a clerk refusing to use preferred pronouns. He is clearly trying to, but having trouble with when the 6'+ masculine looking individual is yelling at him. You are entirely full of shit here. --- |

Do you have to get a certain number of accumulative points? Are you in classic mode where you pick a character and fight through a themed series of enemies and then a big boss? Or Smash Mode where you just pick characters to play as a d fight? --- |

Topic | New Study Shows Women HATE And Punish Sexualized Women |
Esrac 12/26/18 8:19:05 AM #4 | More specifically, the study abstract suggests men and women both grown on women who display their sexual availability, but they do so for different motives and women punish them more harshly. Doesn't say what the motives are. I'd assume women don't like them because they shake up the sexual marketplace too much as competition for men's attention. --- |
Topic | One piece of dialogue in Fellowship of the Ring I dont get (spoilers) |
Esrac 12/26/18 5:16:12 AM #9 | DD Divine posted... My favorite part in the movie is when Gandalf leaves the shire and goes to Minis Tirith to study the possibility of it being the one ring. Then he rides back to the shire in what looks like maybe a couple weeks/months had passed, but in the book its been 17 years. I think it would be hilarious if in the movie it just faded to black and said 17 years later. The average audience would be like this Wizard was off reading books for almost 2 decades!! You know, I kind of think it sounds better for it to have been a matter of months, maybe a year. Instead of 17 years. --- |

Regardless, there is apparently nothing in the advertising to suggest that it is a regular bottle in a plastic case. The worst part is they're charging $80 for this. --- |
