While I'd expect Trump to be a petty bitch about it, I don't think even he's stupid enough to go that far. It's a funny meme, but it's kind of silly to turn him into even more of an evil caricature than he already displays.

Heaven definitely. As long as it's not the "everyone sheds all human thoughts and become a hivemind with god" interpretation, there is literally no reason to go with the other two.

Unless there's more context being left out like the shorts somehow being yanked up as she's exercising to expose some cheek, no idea how any one would ever complain about that.

They still want to harvest the fur? Lol just shows how stupid and greedy humans are

Why wouldn't you? Not like you can't let it sit for X days and disinfect it multiple times just to be absolutely sure.

Watching some streams, I think I'll absolutely pass. The full tilt into the paper stuff being the main driving force of the game isn't as charming as they want it to be, and it doesn't particularly look appealing as a "Paper Mario action adventure." If everything was like that Gooper Blooper fight, I might have been more interested. I don't get why they ever stuck to random battles if they wanted to innovate. It just feels like a lazy half measure.

Odyssey definitely felt like a game made for DLC. You could easily tack on entire worlds for 5-10 bucks each.

Random stealth segments are the worst. Games based around it are fine. Games where both run and gun and stealth are viable options are the best, like Riddick or MGS5.

Is there even a particular endpoint to this? I really dislike the idea of quotas when it comes to this stuff. Fostering an environment in which they feel welcomed to act and people can feel free to pitch stories involving them is more important than some particular percentage.

I was on the fence about giving the new game a shot, but that tipped me into the firm no category. It's just a damn joke at this point.

For those calling if a political stance:

Saying "black lives matter" is not a political statement. It is declaration of reality. It happens to stand in definiance of systemic racism which can make it feel political, but someone saying BLM is not meant to be about politics, its literally "stop treating black (Americans) as second and third rate citizens".

There is nothing political about that and if your gut reaction to such a thing is "well now, let's not get political here..." it does not reflect well on your core worldview. It is time for society to change and people continuously sweeping these issues under the rug are what has led to protests and riots. Yes it should be in the work place because it needs to be forced into the brain of every person that BLM and if you can't accept that you don't deserve to be part of this society.

Whether someone means it or not, the phrase is now inherently linked to an existing organization seeking political change. Wearing a shirt that has a similar phrase like "black lives are important" would be different in my opinion.

Do that many people at McDonald's even make minimum wage? It may be a state by state thing, but I've see the ones around here hiring starting at $11.

I hate everything about their development process. I know not every internal development team is the same, but fucking New Super Mario Bros would like to have a talk about the same formula working a dozen times.

How many full-time working adults even making minimum wage in the first place?

I'd say of the uglier ones, they all share that trait, but the trait in itself doesn't make them ugly.

I think some people forget that even the people who commit the most horrible acts are still human at the end of the day. Some can even change for the better. The issue with OJ is that he never served a day for his crime. If he had served his time, I wouldn't see any particular issue with it.

If the company allows political statements associated with their uniforms, no. If they do not, then yes. I would say personal opinions, political or not, really shouldn't be expressed at all while on the clock, but each company can make their own rules.

All currency is founded on an innate trust it has value. People just value it as something with worth, with people behind the scenes trying to best manipulate its flow (as with all currency).

Not currently, but the right impetuous could certainly drive them that way. It probably wouldn't be on race lines, but they're not above purging "undesirables" going by the whole Muslim thing.

There are definite ways to apply a racist view to things. Like all the shit about IQs or people who use crime statistics to act like Group X is inherently bad because they make up XX% of crimes and that kind of shit.

It's insane that her business model is at all sustainable, but I guess staying in the news for stupid shit just brings in the obsessed.

It's morally a dick move, but the one who is doing the cheating holds much more blame.

Excluding all the people affected by the inevitable chaos, I don't think I'd feel anything in particular.

It just shows any ideology is open to cult-like behavior and otherism. Just gotta hope it never becomes truly mainstream.

It's quite superb. If you like the normal dungeon formula, I can see not liking it as much, but I think it's an acceptable deviation from the norm while still retaining the core identity of the series. Though I would certainly have no issues with the shrines being condensed into a more typical dungeon experience in the squeal or a spiritual follow up.

That is completely fake. Everyone knows dinosaurs escaped to the far side of the moon in the 1850s.

Pretty neutral. I don't think I'd ever get married, but I also don't scorn people who do.

What threats lol

The statement of coming to his house in KKK garb. I don't in a million years think the kid would have ever done anything like that, but a threat is a threat. Those should be pretty zero tolerance in our current society. I think a very stern visit from the police would be a suitable enough punishment.

So there shouldn't be any rules on the internet? You should be able to say any racist/homophobic/violent thing you want as other people "should be able to take it or gtfo the internet"?

Yes, you should be able to say whatever you want, with the exclusion of threats of harm, on the internet without facing legal consequences. People can block people. Platforms can ban people based on their ToS. Though in this case, there is a potential threat of harm, so it's not as cut and dry as if the kid had simply left it at racist insults. I think all threats should be taken seriously considering what some kids have done.

I think it's kind of impossible at this point. Even if things manage to be of better quality, they screwed up from the get go. They'll have individual successes for sure, but this interconnected universe is never going to pull together.

I assume they have to follow fairly strict disinfection routines at this point, so likely not an issue so long as they have a good rating. I've never used one in my life though, so no idea how it works.

I think most cars are standardized. I think it mostly comes down to focus, using proper spacing, timing on when to pit, and most of all, not crashing. It seems to be more of a social gathering thing than anything else, just chilling out, getting drunk, and watching the pretty cars go round and round. Ultimately, seems boring as fuck, but to each his own.

I don't think I'd stay in such a place for decades, but I could certainly put up with it for a while if it was really worth it.

If it was just an insult, racist or not, I'd say unfair, but the implied threat of violence should definitely be taken seriously. I don't know if "taken seriously" should result in a pre-teen being actually arrested over a very stern house visit from police, but eh, I guess it's not like a pre-teen would be incapable of harming someone if they actually tired.

Why GTA? Out of all open worlds, they're usually the most boring because they're realistic cities.

maybe im missing it but where was this politicized? also yea people are allowed to be dicks and others are allowed to call them out for such

Turning it into some kind of race thing like in the second tweet in the OP and his stupid likely lawyer-approved and written apology. It's a man calling a woman unattractive. The proper response should be to call him a dick, not act like this is some kind of racially biased shit.

On one hand, it's a dick move to publicly blast someone. On the other hand, it's a fucking joke Tweet, so shut the fuck up. People are allowed to be dicks. Just blast him back based on some personal characteristic instead of turning this into some political shit.

Yeah, next they'll be saying the Jesons weren't called the Jesons.

Can't you just outright catch most of them in the most recent games? Though the Wonder Trade system makes it super easy anyway.

It's entirely possible they're happy, but I really doubt it if it took eight months of therapy.

Seems kind of dumb to act like the name itself is in any way generic when it's a real name. It seems the primary issue would be that it seems to be a Korean name.

Any majority is going to have a problem with some minority. Western countries seem to have more of a focus on race than others due to the "melting pot" effect. Other countries seem more heavily focused religious discrimination or caste discrimination. Though race discrimination still exists obviously.

Any kind of unprovoked outburst warrants a major reprimand at least. I think everyone these days instantly being fired it a bit much though.

Hollow Knight is superb. Dead Cells is fun but I hand to savescum the Hand because I was starting to get bored. I think there's other content beyond that, but honestly didn't seem worth it. I liked Rogue Legacy's approach better because the progression allows you to either be a true Roguelike minimalist if you want or just keep gaining strength until you can push through.

I think its mostly his wifes fortune.

In the world of $50k purses, Ill never understand why people are surprised with random, overinflated shit.

Yes, clearly someone evil and smart enough to smuggle children would indeed put the name of the children directly on merchandise for the world to see.

Nah, it just looked like it was going to be an average experience that deviated too much from a working formula for my taste. I doubt I would hate playing it, but I can spend my 40 hours on a game I'm actually hyped to play instead.

First off, I don't. It's second nature for me to not put myself or the lives of others in danger from my actions, let alone driving. But that's besides the point. What the fuck does any of this have to do with me being a hypocrite according to you?

The chance of you killing someone in your car (assuming you're an average, attentive driver) and the chance of a police interaction ending in the death of an innocent are both some sub 0.1% action. If you seriously think calling the police is a matter of incredible scrutiny, then you driving also deserves that same scrutiny. Murder by police is tragic, but don't overinflate it. As you will most likely in your life never accidentally kill someone while driving, you will most likely in your life never be killed by a cop even if the frequency in which you dealt with them increased by ten fold.

ThisGuyAreSick posted...

Yes, as you should. Driving a car can be incredibly dangerous for you and other people on the road, which means you should always be focused as much as possible and make sure to adhere to traffic safety laws.

I don't know what backwards ass place is suggesting to you otherwise.

I guarantee you you have paid with a fake $20 unknowingly at one point in your life and had they questioned you, you would not be able to tell them how you received it.

That's evading the question. Do you, every time you sit in your vehicle, seriously consider that you're performing an action that has a potential chance of death? If not, then your statement about calling the police is hypocritical.

ThisGuyAreSick posted...

This

This is why people need to think long and hard before they call the police on someone. It should be treated as something serious, since it can be easily serious.

Do you think about how you're going to potentially negligently murder someone with your car every time you drive?
