Do we know if Nepenthe's Cybertruck driving brother is full, half or step?

Definitely either the most or one of the most important game franchises to me ever. Have been there day 1 for all three games, and it's affected me in multiple ways. What are your thoughts about the series as a whole?

Is this one of the games that turned them trans or what?

No, that was obviously The Last of Us Part 2, you fucking idiot

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

I think discussing unpersoned individuals should also mark you as a bigot, the same as following them on social media.

Hard to keep up with Era lore.

I wish I had the kind of caucasian confidence you need to call a movie co-written by a native Hawaiian "colonizer trash".

Meanwhile the original was all white guys. It's almost like people aren't a monolith and regardless of your ethnicity you can have bad or good ideas or just different opinio-

Listen to Black people. That'd be a good place to start. Because somehow, some way, the shit that leaves y'all constantly Bamboozled is never a mystery nor surprise to us.

When we tell y'all Fetterman is a fraud, listen to us.

When we tell y'all David Hogg is an ineffective showboat, listen to us.

When we tell y'all your leftist movements aren't recognizeable to us, and they really should be, listen to us.

Also, minorities are not a monolith, even as I speak as their unelected representative.

HOLY SHIT FUCK TOPAZ

And fuck worthless deadbeats that trap helpless animals in their neglectful care.  If you can't take care of the animal or yourself, surrender it.

The poor animal will just end up getting euthanised. Better to just euthanise the worthless human instead.

Full. He's only a couple years older. The step dad didn't come into the picture until they were both in their 20s.

This right here is basically the #1 thing I would love to see addressed. The people who are "right" and therefore feel like they can just be toxic as hell has got to stop. Just because you feel like you have the moral high ground does not mean you get to violate the rules and be hostile towards other members.

If I could @ the people this falls under without consequence….

Can we not?

Because I gotta be real: everyone does it. If anyone is thinking this is me saying, "Oh this particular group is really bad" then you misunderstand my point. My point is that it's a problem across the board. Everyone does this to an extent, heck your post is basically saying you would do it if you could avoid a ban. I'm not saying this to attack you, but to punctuate my point.

In your previous post, you lean pretty heavy on the “you”.



It’s pretty easy to see why people would feel you’re pointing your comments at a particular group or subset of the community when you’re using such language.

Heck, in this thread we literally had people argue that they should be allowed to be jerks.

Well. Some of them literally are.

In other words, calling out toxic/hostile members is itself toxic/hostile and just as bad. And then he wonders why people get away with it.

[DavidCroquet]

you would do it if you could avoid a ban…

…so the people who do not need to fear bans should be allowed to do it without restriction?

Review threads continue to attract the absolute worst, most unpleasant posters on this website.

They’re fun to laugh at, but it’s a bit like giving an alcoholic booze so you can watch them stumble around for your amusement. At some point it’s not fun to watch anymore.

Uhhhhh

Um. You good, man?

what the fuck

Hot take of the damn decade

All you have to do is to enforce the rules equally you dumbass. Don't let Nepenthe get away with insulting people while others get banned for "hostility"

So much of their problems stems from their identity politics bullshit where certain groups are allowed more leeway than others. It makes their own jobs harder too because now they need to bring in their gender diverse Asian Pacific Palestine expert to judge if this comment warrants a ban or not. Just ban people for breaking rules and don't ban them if the didn't

[Besticus Maximus]

why do they keep saying heck like they're mormon missionaries or something

Didn't he do something like this to get a "scoop" about something nobody cared about?

Umm, have you seen the burka brigade thread?

Slightly famous guy gets book deal, people mad and for some reason make it specifically about race?

I like how the thread is like "Well, of course the Black people who actually wrote a book are getting fucked over by the white guy who didn't do anything."

what the fuck is a booktok

I really don't think many of them even understand what courts even are. They seem to be thinking of The Punisher.

This really has to be screencapped to appreciate the sheer insanity of this post.




Who the fuck has THIS much time to write THIS much shit, with THIS many pictures??

[HeavenIsAPlaceOnEarth]

Since I can't ignore an admin, please do us both the courtesy of not addressing me anymore.

When people are posting in the community thread about wanting to ignore mods, it's not actually about Slayven, as much as they joke that it is.

Slayven's a big dummy, but he doesn't actually post enough to be that annoying, and it's easy to avoid his goofy comic threads.

Nepenthe is an actual wretched human being whose miserable nonsense is what sets the tone of Era.

SHE'S QUEER QUEER QUEER

An interaction between Tanya and Tremor in Mortal Kombat X in addition to Mileena's Arcade ending in Mortal Kombat 11 suggests that Mileena is the second LGBT character in the Mortal Kombat series, being the first bisexual character. The first LGBT character was Kung Jin. While it is confirmed that Kung Jin is indeed homosexual, it has yet to be confirmed whether or not Mileena is in fact bisexual.

An interaction between Tanya and Tremor, in addition to some interactions with Mileena in Mortal Kombat X, and Mileena's Arcade ending in Mortal Kombat 11 suggests that Tanya is one of three LGBT characters in the Mortal Kombat series, possibly being the second bisexual character, after Mileena. The first LGBT character was Kung Jin. While it is confirmed that Kung Jin is indeed homosexual, it has yet to be confirmed whether or not Tanya is in fact bisexual.

Ah, okay. Queer icons definitely.

Also:

I mentioned in another thread that Morrigan was a childhood crush of mine; the fact that she was Scottish (and her hair is close to my favourite colour of Cyan) probably helped. As I've also mentioned before, her being a canon bisexual helps a lot in me liking her and I like that she's got a good story arc about responsibility and her accepting her role as the Queen of Makai/Hell. That being said, I don't like some of the flanderization she's suffered over the years that focuses on her solely being about sex; or the Udon or Teppen versions of her that just make her an outright villain; both I feel lose a lot of her fun and dorky nature, Morrigan isn't a hero, she's an anti-hero, but to me she's also the type of person gloating she's taking out newbs left or right in SF6's competitive mode and loves to party.

Just come on, dude.
