So she was white trash and OD.  

I imagined the OD given how willingly her mother was in blaming the police. I didn’t expect she using the gamer word.

top men™ investigating the issue don't think it was a drug abuse thing, more like the fleet of standard kid meds, anti-anxiety, anti-ADHD, testosterone, that sort of thing, and then a reaction with all that from whatever the hospital gave her too

In today's episode of the asylum, a reeeeeeeseteran holds a 6-7 years grudge:

About 6 years ago maybe 7, watching his stream and he almost lost, he was Diamond league and the Plat player dropped his combo, I said that was close you almost lost that, he went off on me about him almost losing, then the chat attacked me following off his rant, since then I have hated this fucker, he's a vile nasty PoS.

User Banned (Permanent): Buys Club Behaviour; Long History of Inappropriate Commentary

Giving the girls three different bikini options each, while Cloud gets one shirtless options with long boardshorts and one where he's wearing two shirts on top of each other and Barret gets... only the sailor costume... sorry but no, that's a bad look. Especially in a game that fans are absolutely going to replay. There's a lot of focus on the male gaze and everything else feels like an afterthought.

Let's not beat around the bush: the girls are astronomically more popular. If Barret ranked a lot higher he'd probably get more outfits. Him being tragically under-appreciated is a whole other discussion.

The main thing I take umbrage with is the notion that this game is "predominantly" male gaze. That hasn't been the case for any FF game for a long time.

Is it even 100% confirmed he doesn't get more?

"Buys Club"

How is any of that boys club rhetoric?

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – As it stands, Missouri judges cannot legally finalize a divorce if a woman is pregnant.

Three other states have similar laws: Texas, Arizona and Arkansas. While a couple can still file for divorce in Missouri, the court must wait until after a woman gives birth in order to finalize child custody and child support.

When it comes to domestic violence, there are no exceptions.

"It just doesn't make sense in 2024," said State Rep. Ashley Aune, a Democrat representing District 14 in Platte County, and that's where it becomes a problem for her.

Finally, the messenger we have been waiting for.

Free Palestine.

As someone with constant suicidal depression and suicidal ideation people trying to use me or other people like me to silence a message is disgusting. He should not have died, but people also should not be dying in Gaza and the US should not be supporting it. All of these things are true.

This is more complex than a mental health issue, i'd never even imagine taking my life in such a painful way, it was done with purpose, with intent, and you can acknowledge that without condoning the act itself.

I love how they’ll lock a thread about a game or TV show a protected user doesn’t like on the flimsiest pretext but wring their hands over whether to lock that shit all day.

[Rendle]

New info from friend of Benedict:

Ally and Nex's friend group would always get in trouble for laughing too loudly, particularly in art class, Ally said. Nex — who was also known by friends as “Roach” or “Roachie” — was a talented artist and could spend 30 minutes working on something that turned out to be a “masterpiece,” Ally said

Benedict's police statement:

"We were laughing and they had said something like, 'Why do they laugh like that?' And they were talking about us in front of us," the teen said in the 21-minute video about the students they had an altercation with. "And so I went up there and I poured water on them. And then all three of them came at me."

So they attacked these 3 girls because of a perceived slight when they overheard them talking about their distruptive laughing. The girls were strangers to Benedict and their names were unknown to her. If you look at the evidence it like Benedict was an emotionally disturbed bully who got what was coming to them (getting their ass kicked in self-defense, not the fact they died).

[Rendle]

I spent a fucking half hour on that post trying to word it so it was clear whether I was refering to Benedict or the 3 girls when I used "they" or "them", and after all that I still accidentally write "her". I'm going to leave it as is because at this point I could care less about respecting how they/he Nex/Roachie wants to be referred to at this point. There's only so much bending over backwards I can do.

[books]

It's too late for the truth. With this walkout and national vigils happening, she's just another footnote in the official trans genocide as a victim.

[benji]

Couldn't bear to watch the whole video. Rest in power.

Yikes, that's reserved for Black women, chud.

I wish we could do without the dismissal of his courage and protest against genocide, but i wonder if that requires too many to see that genocide for what it is.
Perhaps instead of denying the man his final words, we could be moved to act in his memory and empower his name with a fraction of the courage that moved him, and still mourn not just his passing but also that of the thousands the genocide is taking from us.

He did it to protest Western imperialism and the Palestinian genocide.

I want more people in this thread to openly say that instead of trying to railroad the discussion to be about whether or not he was mentally unwell (likely not) or whether or not his singular action will change the conflict (no singular action will.)

He shouted "Free Palestine" while literally on fire. The least we could all do from the comfort of our keyboards and phones is say the same.

Free Palestine.

I hope one day he is remembered by history properly.

RIP.

I think the best way to honor his memory would be to support the cause he was willing to sacrifice himself for instead of speculating on whether or not he was mentally ill.

Another moderator arrives to the scene

So a man gives his life in form of protest to genocide, and some people's first instincts are:
- Say they shouldn't have done it, lecturing in the usefulness of the protest, very comfy while on a gaming forum
- Question their mental health, armchair diagnosis (as if being aware that thousands are dying, while the country you serve plays quite the part, isn't depressing enough)

If these type of protests gets forgotten and "don't work", its because of people like you.

RIP Aaron.

No, no, no, no, no. Absolutely not. We do not, repeat DO NOT, do what people who commit suicide demand. We can support their cause before and after, we can change our minds from their act, etc. But we do not establish a standard in which the most insane and violent of us can dictate demands to the rest of us.

You want a culture where people constantly suicide bait to get what they want? Oh, that's right, you do want this because you want a free way to get what you want. And it's abhorrent and deplorable, it's beyond disgusting. You are all inhuman, wanting us all to swing on a whim to the demands of the most radial claimants. 

You are not good people. You are not progressive. You are sociopaths.

Again, this poster didnt get a warning or anybody calling them off.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/aaron-bushnell-us-airman-sets-himself-on-fire-in-protest-of-palestinian-genocide-outside-israeli-embassy.821301/page-2?post=119720661#post-119720661

I don't want to derail this thread into a discussion of whether or not suicide is acceptable, specially not any more than it's already been derailed, but I legitimately don't understand posts like this.
If your first reaction upon reading this story is to simply shout SUICIDE BAD and end your thought there without having enough empathy to understand the reasoning behind why Aaron did what he did, I dunno what you tell you.

It's like some posters have an extreme averse reaction to the entire concept of suicide in general and I don't get it at all.
Nobody in this thread is endorsing what he did or is saying it's good that he died. We just have enough respect for the man to understand the reasoning behind why he did it.

The simple fact of the matter is that it already happened and we couldn't have prevented it.
How do we fix the root cause that led to this?

You don't care about mental illness. Neither of you or anyone else making these types of statements.

Society, "root causes", etc. are not simple things that are to be destroyed and/or remade on whims and especially not for the "mental health" of a single individual. What you want is a true hellscape that will make all our mental health worse. You want all of us to end our lives whenever a single individual is unhappy. This is narcissism run amok. I rarely get offended by your abject stupidity but your sociopathic culture always makes me so.

For a reprieve from the lionizing of a suicide by fire retard, there’s a new development in the Nex Saga 

So why isn't she considered to be inciting terrorism or something?

Honestly at this point because I believe just because we live in a cruel world.

Going by some exchanges with white lawyers online, the First Amendment is worth more than the lives of minorities.

Ken White, aka Pope Hat, will insult people suggesting that we look at removing protection of hate speech as free speech.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/libs-of-tiktok-targeted-a-district-then-an-indigenous-non-binary-student-was-killed-on-campus.818712/page-6?post=119733885#post-119733885

This is the same shortsighted shit as above. These people are willing to destroy our culture, our democracy, our way of life, due process itself. To establish a totalitarian state where the police they hate and the politicians they hate can throw us all in prison whenever they want. All because they're butthurt about a woman on Twitter who reposts stuff.

Worth more than the lives of minorities? You fucking idiot that's what's protecting the lives of minorities. Do you think any minorities will be able to advocate for their causes, to speak about their lived experiences or to even tell people to stop killing them under your demand that the majority or elite be allowed to imprison or kill anyone who says something they don't like? Have you for even one fucking second considered how in the world you could possibly defend yourself from charges of "inciting terrorism" like this? No, you haven't. You don't care about due process for minorities, you just want to see someone you dislike harmed through violence. Except you're too much of a fucking coward to do it yourself so you want to outsource it to the state.

These people are so desperate to have their lives ruled by constant violence in hopes that it gives it some kind of meaning that they literally refuse to stop being sociopaths calling for deliberate harm to everyone.

[benji]

As always it's obvious how there's nothing progressive about these losers, how they're reactionaries worse than chuds if you take just a few minutes to think about what the world they advocate for would look like. A panopticon state that deploys state-backed mob violence against minorities constantly demanding state-backed struggle sessions and lurches to the whims of anyone willing to claim they'll selfgenocide. Where nobody owns anything but their fetish art.

The Cultural Revolution would look tame compared to what they spend every day inbetween binge Disney programming sessions advocating for.

There's twitter communities dedicated to screenshot and mock Era posts out there. You already know what kind of people do that, of course. I'm sure this thread is a (if not the) prime target. I think making the thread members only would be the right thing to do.

 

[benji]

The narcissism they want established as law in society is how they want to do whatever they feel they want to do in the moment and never suffer anything but positive consequences for it. This is why they salivate at the idea of "fuck around and find out" when it happens to others but want it literally prohibited for themselves. They don't want "freedom of speech" but do want "freedom from consequences" so all their focus is on establishing a scaffolding that protects them from them.

But it always only works one-way. Hence why nobody will call out a freak trans little or even ban them for being a troll. Instead they have to hide it so they don't have to feel ashamed that others can critique their stupidity.

They spurn the very conceptual basis of civil society and then wonder why society doesn't coddle them. So they get angry. Then violent. Anything to refuse self-reflection.

It is among the largest high schools in Oklahoma by enrollment with nearly 3,000 students.

So a little over 1% of their school "walked out" to support Nex...

If people want to screenshot stuff and they're on Windows press Shift+Windows Key+S and the snip tool overlay will come up and then you can draw a box around anything on your screen. It will copy this to the clipboard. Go to imgur or whatever* and you can just paste it (Ctrl+V) which will automatically upload it and you can post it on here. (You can do this on Linux and Mac too, I just don't know the keyboard shortcuts without looking them up.)

I may turn on uploading images here if people use it almost entirely for that (or emotes) considering we use almost none of our hosting space.

I personally like just quoting the text but if they're going to be little bitches about it I might as well help us get screenshots of member's only threads.

*
Another place you can upload images if you really need to is Steam. If you use the Friends IMs or chats you can paste into them and it'll upload images to Gabe's servers. You can also go to your username->content and "upload screenshots" but just upload whatever you want, make the image private and it won't show for other people but you can still paste the url in img tags here.

40 students? So two class rooms tops.

School bullying policies are a bunch of bullshit. Also had to endure a bunch of bullying all the way through elementary and middle school for my autism and being "different", to the point where it only stopped in high-school because I started retaliating and stopped being an easy target.

Cenauru, known supporter of Zoophiles, was bullied for being "different"? Maybe bullying worked in this case!
