Yes, yes, we see you Messy you were also concerned and upset about Tom Cruise before everyone else. Maybe Nepenthe will show up and say, "As I've been saying about Scientology . . . "

Yeah, imagine if members started calling everyone they didn't like a Nazi? I can't imagine it, it's so improbable.
Some guy posted a quote from Bronson Pinochet about how homophobic Tom was and riotous couldn't allow that.

Not trying to derail, or defend Tom at all, but just funny to see this dude's name brought up as a source of anything.
You inserted yourself with something completely irrelevant just to throw it around. Clearly he wanted to shit on someone and weren't fast enough to make a Cruise thread.
Quote:Yeah, Digger flopped, the most recent Mission Impossible films disappointed at the box office, and Days of Thunder might flop too (but if it's successful, it will likely be more due to Anne Hathway than Cruise).

There are many subtle signs your online community might have got to a point where it's probably a good idea to just shut it down and start again.
However, if a prominent portion of your online community is in any way openly arguing that astrology should not be ridiculed and NOT receiving significant pushback, then that isn't even a subtle sign...that should be ringing alarm bells.

Yeah, no. Good way to wake up one day in a Nazi community, it's like you learned nothing from how atheism led to Gamergate led to global fascism.

You cissies really do not understanding shutting up and listening when trans people are speaking. Your favorite artist might be an asshole and you didn't know, not knowing is part of why trans people voices need to be heard, because still in 2026 transphobia is normalized and even championed thanks to the rise of fascism.
there's no such thing as being trans in my communist utopia. Sex and Gender do not matter, comrade.

She has a Wikipedia page, where it mentions getting fired by Hans Zimmer (using her tweet as a source  )… and people still not care.

Since her earliest releases as Nero's Day at Disneyland, Bousfield has cited a fascination with North American amusement culture as inspiration for her work; in particular, she is "pretty obsessed" with Disneyland.[18][3] While in college Bousfield studied the sociology of amusement parks.[3]
Bousfield's queer identity also plays an important role in her art, and she has stated that she wants to make music for “young, upset, specifically trans kids”.[3]

From the halo studios thread, I mean they're all terrible and no one will miss that studio but what the fuck is this supposed to be because it isn't halo?

Quote:Ok, I finally looked into this to see what the fuss is all about. I was expecting to see an actual parallel to the Petra Parker, character is transitioning type narrative, or hell, even a force fem variant. All I see is fucking Rule 63! Are we (as a community) getting bent out of shape over one of a nearly infinite Rule 63'd problematic characters/properties?
I am so disappointed in us. Had we just stuck to our guns and not engaged with this property, we would have been better off. But no, we need to Streisand Effect this, make it a big deal when it isn't (in so much as general Rule 63 is an issue.) You know there is going to be (and likely has been for a while) Rule 34 of this very concept right? Want to draw attention to that to?
Look, you are but one voice in this shitstorm and I am not saying your discomfort is invalid. But learn from history a bit. Every time a group makes a stink about a thing, the world reacts by doing the opposite and making it more popular.
What do we generally tell people that take issue with the current Petra Parker craze? Don't like it, don't look at it. Same rules apply to us. One better, let's make quality Petra Parker content that has depth and meaning instead of catering to thirst trap mentality that seems to start dominating any fan generated content. That way we have something that can outlast the Rule 63 Malfoy blip.

It's the same way that you should always believe the science unless it says something you don't like then it's okay to believe something because you really wish it were true.

Consolidation is fucking gross but Netflix would've been infinitely better than this shitshow.
But congrats, I guess. Basically every form of media is owned by fascists now and with the crippling debt (not to mention Ellison's Oracle bubble popping), I can only hope these properties survive until Netflix and others can pick up the pieces in a few years time.
haha can you imagine RE celebrating these giant corporate mergers? oh wait
