Discussing wrestling IRL drama is way more interesting to me than wrestling itself.

[books]

Lol wrassling is serious (carney) business.

[Boredfrom]

Thank god I never got into wrestling. But the IRL drama is fascinating to me than the shows.

[books]

What ree should be getting from this wrestling drama is that you can't just do whatever the eff you want and get away with it. What they will get from this is that you need to push harder.

Seeing Jill and Benedikta DLC requests and imagining how those could possibly go after how they were treated in the main game has me like

You mean the one that was treated with respect throughout the entire storyline and the one that had multiple great boss fights and served as a nice beginning arc villain? What is the problem with these characters?

That one villain didn’t got “redeemed” and got killed to motivate a, otherwise, unsympathetic simp villain that got so humiliated by Clive that he even imagined a cucking. 

That Jill doesn’t does anything even if she is a companion for most of the game and that she gets captured (and immediately released next scene).

More and more the anime fandom is looking and sounding exactly like all the far-right circles that we're familiar with.

I can almost swear the fandom wasn't anything like this in the past.

It's kind of ironic in that gaming communities feel like they're slowly shifting towards more progressive attitudes, while the anime communities inch closer towards inceldom and far-right in general.

[Boredfrom]

Self hating anime fans are the best/worst.

The communities has always been this bad.

Agreed. I’m out. I know real living people stranded there, my ex was big into burning man, and it’s highly misunderstood, and if I raise fists on the internet to die on this sword I’m gonna get banned here. I’m out. My best wishes for the burning man attendees.

For those of you who condemn people to being stranded in the desert just because you don’t like that they enjoy pleasure, drugs, music, art and sex…get help.

Someone said "Burning Man" and Nothing Loud thought they meant another homeless dude with gonorrhea he could fuck behind his husband's back.

Well at least they stopped pretending that the game doesn't have diversity.

Exactly. The wider a leaker’s range becomes, the less believable it is.

I’m speaking as someone who has actually leaked things before when I was a journalist. Sources don’t work like that. You don’t just magically get access to SIX YEARS of a publisher’s upcoming releases and details on all of them. That doesn’t happen without a MASSIVE data breach.

And let me be blunt: a breach that big would be wide enough that it would be coming from more people than just one guy.

I'm sure it was mentioned here he was a journalist but a leaker journalist?

Today on that totally happened on Reddit

Yeah, no… the wealth of illustrated smut throughout history says otherwise. Pin-up art, hentai, Jessica Rabbit…

I remember an incident in middle school where a kid showed me an Xbox magazine ad for DoA Xtreme Beach Volleyball and asked if I thought the girls were hot, to which I said “yeah I guess”. He then promptly began making fun of me by announcing this information to the class. That bully 100% also thought they were hot.

Progressive forum you've got there Cereal BDumbs shady Swedish crypto corp

[Snoopy]

Moderation has claimed that they consult each other, but from the outside it really just feels like bans (and thread locks) are driven by the prejudices of the mod most active in a given thread or forum. You can see it now with anything related to the ABK acquisition. For a while it felt that way with anything related to crypto bullshit. And of course with the constant tire fires in Etc that Hunter would engage with.

It frequently feels like one hand doesn't know what the other is doing. Which is understandable when the mods are, as I understand it, still unpaid volunteers. We don't need the mods to convene a council over every ban, that's clearly unfeasible if not impossible, but I do wish there was more willingness to admit moderation has made a mistake (or just quietly reverse that mistake, I'm not too picky) when a particular mod wilds out. Because having seen Flix's gangster-ass post in this thread, it's impossible to deny that's a thing that happens.

I think we had a really good run for about a year of really quality mods and the site seemed to be really healthy, and then something broke a few months ago. I don't know whether certain mods cycled out (once again, unpaid volunteer work isn't something you can do forever, I know from experience) or if there's just something in the air this summer.

If only more screen nudity was like it is in a Peter Greenaway film, with a genuinely democratic approach to it: everyone gets naked; thin, fat, beautiful, ugly, male, female, young, old, etc.

Yup. I love when men conveniently forget this is part of the conversation.

Cornel West who’s sudden thrust into US electoral politics just oh so mysteriously happens to be touting the Kremlin line word for fucking word.

No ban for conspiracy theorizing that the Black man who has always been a political commentator and saying these exact things for decades (like other Black activists who never gave up on the Soviet utopia and/or heard any anti-Americans they didn't agree with) is some kind of Russian operative out to achieve some unclear sinister Russian goal by running a quixotic third party campaign that will have no effect on the election?

You made a lot of assumptions about me, and I'm going to assume they genuine, even if you didn't reply what I asked.
And no, I'm not emotional invested in this leaks or the future of this companies, the reason why I do so many rumors thread if you want I cant tell you in private, if you that curious and worried about me.

But you might be right that is better drop this thread, before I actually get upset.

Oh god kill me

subpar spatula said:
America's fascination with "good" pizza is funny. You try and it and are never blown away and more like, "that's it?"

I agree. With the exception of some restaurants doing crazy unusual flavor combinations, which can be quite interesting, when it comes to just a basic cheese pizza with red sauce, there's too little potential there for it to really ever be something incredible. The "best" pizza I've ever had (based on friends in New York City and Chicago both telling me "this is the best pizza ever made") is roughly comparable to microwavable pizza. A step up, to be sure, but not an enormous step.
