Wait, you prefer someone who’s willfully ignorant and intentionality hampers their ability to communicate with most of the world?
Do you also prefer someone who proudly proclaims that they don’t read books?

Wishful thinking? Fortnite. Pleeeeeease let’s forget about Fortnite.
While I do agree that unity is the way to go in the fight for rights, I can understand why one would want to separate the T from the LGB. It’s an issue of consistency - L, G, and B all describe sexuality, while T describes gender. The two are related, but ultimately separate concepts - one does not inform the other, and grouping them can hypothetically lead ignorant people to think that they are directly related, which could hypothetically lead to non-straight cisfolk experiencing more oppression than they would have otherwise experienced due to the perceived association with transfolk, as non-conforming sexuality is more generally accepted today than non-conforming gender.
That being said, it’s all hypothetical, and what matters is the reality that people from all spectra of nonconformity are regularly oppressed, and in many places, the oppressors treat anyone LGBT+ with the same disdain. So grouping them is vital for the sake of the most oppressed.
The creator of the format is documented as having confirmed the pronunciation is “jif”, but I don’t care. Once he created it and put it into the world, he relinquished his control.
Like we did with Occupy Wall Street or are doing now for Palestine?
Oh, we’ve known. There just isn’t anything we can do about it.
Oh, did GTA IV have multiplayer? That’s the one I’m least familiar with. Must not have been nearly as robust as GTA V’s.
GTA V made online the core component of it’s game. So much so, that they innitially considered GTA Online to be a seperate game included with GTA V.
You contradicted yourself there. GTA Online can’t be both a core component of GTA V and a standalone game.
So Rockstar, who already had the most financially successful game of all time in GTA V from game sales alone, put its resources into the online component in order to fund the development of its sequel. It’s not like they needed to attract new players to the single player game, being, again, that it was the most successful game of all time. Technically it was the most successful media venture of all time (it made more money than any movie, music, or game ever).
If they hadn’t done that, GTA VI and RDR 2 would’ve had smaller budgets and likely wouldn’t have been as good.
I see nothing wrong with this.
Only one GTA game has had an online component. Every GTA game since 3 has been a best-in-class, genre/generation-defining singleplayer experience.
You pay for the singleplayer. The online bit is just gravy. Some people like said gravy enough to fund the development of Rockstar’s next game. I see nothing wrong with this.
I, for one, welcome our new cyborg mushroom overlords.
Oh no, the regulators are actually regulating?! What a horrible hindrance to unfettered, unsustainable growth innovation. They must be stopped!
Of course. He’s a US politician. Can’t get into US politics without being a zionist. Sure, there are some who pay lip service to basic human decency by suggesting that maybe genocide isn’t okay, but I suspect they’re acting as controlled opposition, just to show the mostly-anti-genocide populace that not all politicians are zionists, that maybe it’s okay to do nothing since there are at least some people in power who acknowledge reality.
Gestures broadly
It’s always so sad to see someone fall victim to propaganda. Fortunately, we’re on the internet, so that can easily be remedied. If you consider yourself a thinking individual with the ability to change your opinion based on new information, this is the best site I’ve found that covers all sides with little to no bias.
Israel can stop Hamas by pulling out of Palestine and leaving its people alone. That’s the only reason Hamas exists. No more oppression, no more need for freedom fighters. Easy peasy.
Oh no! Yamcha got Yamcha’d!
Sounds like something someone who hasn’t actually watched the show would say.
Most modern Trek is not worth watching, IMO, but Lower Decks is so much more than just another modern Trek show. It’s a perfect blend of old Trek nostalgia and modern comedy. Its writers are clearly huge Trek fans, as the show is very respectful of Trek tropes and often references fairly obscure lore.
In short: your opinion is wrong. /s
Try watching it with an open mind (as any person who truly appreciates the core of Star Trek philosophy would) and you’ll probably find that you really like it.
Four more years! Four more years!
Seriously, though, can we just stop giving Biden his heart pills (or whatever pharmaceutical and/or occult concoction is keeping him alive) and let him go quietly into the night?
“The issue” that needs addressing is the obsession our governments have with spying on us.
Later on…
But, ya know, with more genocide.
Fuck Netanyahu.
It was the “refusal to learn” bit that threw me.
Nothing wrong with not liking a language or having no use for it, but “refusing to learn” implies that there are good reasons to learn and resources to do so, but they refuse to, regardless. Or maybe that’s just my own inference.
Anyway, sorry for being presumptuous. Hard day at work followed by a hard day at home. It’s safer to be rude to strangers online than to people I have to deal with regularly IRL.
