This whole thing is shady as hell. I sympathize with the lower tier fighters who are held to a different (i.e. far more strict) standard than Jon Jones, but what can they do? They are struggling to make ends meet and are wary of rocking the boat. Dana, that fucking clown, will keep protecting Jones, as much as he can. I remember when Dana said Jon Jones would never headline another fight. And yet here we are again, and Jones still found a way to fuck things up.

I think you guys are just making shit up now. Melania Trumps past isnt a secret and its pretty clear that shes uncomfortable in her role as the so-called First Lady. I cant think of any Republicans who legitimately think she is classy, let alone vocally promote her as such.

This is one of those clear-cut punching down moments that are usually discouraged on feminist sites, but get overlooked for Melania because of the dislike for Trump.

I voted not really sure what i'd do. Bringing someone with a defect into this world seems cruel, but Im aware that what constitutes as a defect probably differs a lot from person to person. Hell, I personally know a few Asians who think their slightly dark skin is a defect (they call it ugly or yucky) and they actively look for lighter-skinned guys to start a family. I bet they would abort a darker baby, if they knew ahead of time.

This question reminds me of the movie Gattaca.

Why not? Theyre both morons and a lot of guys would hit that. Ocasio-Cortez is a lot younger, so shes got that going for her.

Fuck that movie. It felt like 90 percent of the plot had to do with government meetings about what to do about Godzilla. I only finished it because I love Godzilla and I kept hoping it would get better. I was wrong about the latter. It just got weirder.

The withdrawal means Japan joins Iceland and Norway in openly defying the IWCs ban on commercial whale hunting.

Iceland and Norway, too? Damn, didnt know that.

Regarding Japan, this is disturbing. Not sure what we can do about it, though. Japan says itll just be in their waters, but they know damn well that whalers and fishermen can and do encroach into waters outside their territories from time to time. You need armed boats to enforce your sovereign waters and of course were talking about a massive amount of the Pacific to monitor.

what happened to him?

He had a tumor/cancer and died. He was a frequent poster here and when he was going through his terminal phase he still posted here and went into detail about what he was going through while dying. And then he stopped posting and we all knew what happened...

Yeah, he also posted a lot of pics, basically detailing his treatment and where it was happening. I hope his time here at the end helped at least a little. It seemed like he needed people to talk to.

Meanwhile Trump is supporting yet another largest aid package to Israel. We subsidize their entire country and military.

I wonder why......

It probably has something to do with Israel being an ally to the US, in an area that is largely anti-West and always has been. Of course, having a buffer between the West and these hostiles, plus having an embassy that provides a forward military and diplomatic presence, is kind of a big deal.

Oh, wait, you were hoping for a different answer, amirite?

Get Out

I liked that movie a lot, but does it count as horror? It felt like suspense to me and it was predictable that the protagonist wins at the end by killing all the psycho family members. Plus, it ends on a comedic note.

If they kept the alternate ending, I think it would help the argument of it being horror.

Edit: Heriditarys scene at the end with the daughters decomposed head, the headless mother and headless grandmother was fucked up, in the best sense of the word for horror. If nothing else, I did not see any other movies that were overall as disturbing.

Generalizing a group of people based on the actions of a mostly anonymous few. Thats a bold move.

You sure you want to double down on TCs bullshit? You best remember it then the next time you get upset because somebody pulled out statistics for their own generalizations.

why? their primary problem is lack of social acceptance, not an imaginary milestone like having sex

If by "lack of social acceptance," you mean lack of sex, then I stand by it. You can extrapolate sex to eventually include having a wife and having kids of your own, that are actually your own biologically, and these are all classic examples of having a successful, stable life. Incels don't believe there is hope for them to have any of that. At the very least, prostitutes would help alleviate the social pressures and anxieties that apply to men who have not had sex yet. I know it's not ideal, so I'm open to hearing someone suggest actual practical solutions, and not just the same old tired insults of "hah, they're losers." We already know that, so now what?

I wish you guys would just watch the video instead of talking out of your asses

Ok, I watched the video. Thanks for that. I did not disagree with much, except I do think giving incels prostitutes is perhaps the best solution available. Yes, money is again being exchanged and it would probably come from taxes, which sucks, but society is already paying women to raise their father-less offspring. Incels might as well lobby to get some of that money back to them, whether it be a refund to be used for sex or an actual escort showing up at your doorstep. We can't fix the breakdown of the traditional family at this point, mainly because I don't think most people want to go back to that anyway.

Why does skin color matter?

because if in reality he's dark toned, that makes Christianity pathetic for making the believers think he was the same tone as them

Lol, what?

Christianity spread through Europe and eventually to places like the US, so nobody should be surprised that artists and preachers would have appropriated him to represent their own interests. We dont even know if he truly existed and there arent any definitive descriptions anyway, so you can picture him however you want.

How you could say "Defending yourself from a man trying to kill you is wrong but if someone disagrees with you it's okay to attack them!" is madness to me.

Are we now accepting that regular citizens (i.e. not law enforcement) can or even should perform physical violence against others, if they feel threatened by words? Im asking because Im seeing a lot of names here who still despise George Zimmerman, for example, for literally defending himself from bodily harm that could have been life-threatening, but now theyre here saying its Ok to attack someone who is running his mouth or had an offensive sticker on his car.

How the fuck you guys going to justify that double standard?

It's bizarre that for years conservatives on the internet have gladly come out and told me for years that they'd love to shoot burglars in the back running away with their blue ray player or mow into a crowd of protesters with a car but all of a sudden are up in arms about some people possibly or not possibly beating up a guy who is described as a "proud" member of an ideology that wants to line people against walls and put bullets in their head

Ehh, the first guy is literally taking things you own away from you and is violating the sanctity of your home as a potential physical threat. The other guy, the old racist, is just a dumbass spouting offensive words. If the latter actually tries to line people against walls, as you put it, then Id want to shoot him, too. Not sure why you brought up the guy who killed a person with his car. I heard that criminal is facing life in prison. We should shoot him as well.

asking for clarification one time is provoking now?

Yes, it can be. It really depends on what the employee, in this example, saw, heard, and basically was experiencing with regards to his boss, Musk, as it all pertains to the context of his job, that particular projects specifications and desired results, their relevant business culture, what happened before all of this incident, and so much more. I mean it sounds like a lot to process, but our brains receive and go through all this information and calculate for a wide range of responses in seconds.

So all there is in a conversation is words? No visual clues?

I think a lot of these guys dont understand that communication includes a lot more than just the actual words being said. Body language, timing, tone, and other cues give us context for interactions, which we can either ignore or use at our discretion. That engineer was also presumably making more pay than a burger flipper at McDonalds, so I would like to think hed be smart enough to not provoke his boss beyond his already agitated state.

people trying to cash fraudulent checks seems like it'd be a common thing. the demographics of who is doing it seems unimportant....in this case, WHY they thought this was also Fraud is the important detail. what about that check made them second guess it? It was legitimate...you'd think a bank would know. If all the other cases led to arrests how do they not know what to look for in THIS case?

Yeah, unfortunately we dont have enough from the article to know the answer to those questions. Personally, I think they probably are a bunch of asshole racists. They made this customer jump through hoops with providing two ID and fingerprints, then still called the police on him. That really pisses me off and I agree with the guy when he responded:

"I want an apology, a sincere apology, mainly from the person who called the cops on me."

maybe it's just a shitty bank

Yes, and thats what Im getting at. Did they mess with the black guy because theyre racist, which is definitely shitty, or did they mess with him because the bank is shitty and theyre just shitty to everyone? Right now, it feels like BBC News is pushing something, or maybe people are just seeing what they want to see.

According to Brooklyn police, there have been over 10 calls to police about fraudulent cheques from that bank branch alone in the past few months - all of which ended in arrests.

I wish they had provided more information about that. If its all black people, or at least minorities, then that would be a disturbing trend. If its a mixed group, well... the news headline would be implying something that is inaccurate.

Dead Cells is addicting. Its heavy on combat and I like the options it gives you for different play styles. It does have an old-school feel to it, with how punishing a death can be, but that just took me a little while to get used to. Anyway, its the most fun I have had in a while, although Im just starting to get into Smash Ultimate now.

I mean, since everyone wants to compare it to Robin Williams already...He basically just did his own voice and sprinkled in celebrity impersonations in the cartoon (which was great, don't get me wrong, it worked perfect). Will Smith's charismatic voice gives off the same energy and has the same humor to it...I don't understand why people are worried about that lol. I highly doubt he goes full Bad Boys Mike Lowrey (which outside of Fresh Prince of Bel Air is as close to "Will Smith playing Will Smith" as he's performed IMO)

Yeah, those are fair points. I started thinking about Robin Williams' performance after my post

Check out this quote from Smith (from your link):

"I think it'll stand out as unique even in the Disney world," he said. "There hasn't been a lot of that hip-hop flavor in Disney history."

Well, one way or another, as in good or bad, I think he's right that it will be unique for Disney.

You guys are crazy. Naomi Scott is very pretty. People saying she looks plain. Wtf?! Ok, so she's not a super model, but she doesn't have to be that. She just has to be a believable princess. I am more surprised you guys aren't criticizing that she looks white, which she gets from her British father.

Will Smith will be fine. There's going to be a lot of CGI anyway because of his spells and different form. He's got the energy for it, but I admit I'm a little worried about what his accent will sound like.
