Jesse would know considering all his own chasing of trans women that Brianna Wu has evidence of but won't release to protect the dignity of the victims.

Now I know what Jordan Peterson is talking about when he mentions lobsters.

When Arday was asked about his claims by the Guardian, he stood by them. “To be honest with you, I thought you’d just believe me,” he said. “Why would I lie?”

Female author on female author violence. 

Very progressive. 

But Maguire writes trans characters, so that's ok.

I'm not watching his retarded bullshit, but please tell me he's not calling Halo, "the greatest franchise of all time"?

The only time watching an Asmongold clip is defensible is when he's talking about someone dumber than him (so... Hasan Piker).

A new Arday lie has hit the towers.

Okay, he might not be lying about the autism

Wrong, bitch. It's never defensible to watch a streamer. You should always kill yourself after watching so you can relieve your family of the shame.

fwiw Halo was huge in the 2000s. If you’re of a certain age, it is formative franchise.

Somehow every major space sci fi franchise from Star Trek to Star Wars, Mass Effect to Halo, just went in the toilet. You may be thinking there’s Dune, but everybody sort of forgot they tried making a bene gesserit tv show.

I love how the point of orders went something like "we're supposed to be like the House of Commons, props aren't allowed." "Palestinian flags were allowed a few debates ago"

Yes, these bags smell and attract rats, but there is no guarantee that the dumpsters will fully alleviate either problem. Instead, they will introduce worse problems.

The bins will contribute to the sense of New York becoming more “sanitized” each day, where it is gentrified and perhaps physically cleaner but losing its character and history.
