I love how the response to 

"everyone having the same stupid clown avatar makes it hard to distinguish who is who and is fucking annoying" 

is 
"OH SO YOU HATE PERSONAL EXPRESSION? HOW ABOUT NO AVATARS THEN?? WANT TO BE A BARCODE RETARD???"

which is like... the exact opposite of what he wanted

[benji]

Look, I have no idea how rampant avatar swapping is (like I said upthread, my brain didn't even register it was happening) but if it was a massive thing in this community I'd probably just turn avatars off and move on. I do think it's silly, but it's not deal breaking.

What? How is that the best solution instead of gently suggesting that people do something else for bets?

to this day one of the funniest examples of getting caught, just absolutely disappearing completely once people figure out you're white and not black as you've been pretending to be

not even any feeble excuses like "that was a photo of my friend's hand, not me" or "don't shame my vitiligo," nothing

Fucking zaslav starting this shitty trend. What a fucker.

It's Zaslav's fault that Disney did this.

It's sad, really. It's sad and frustrating. One major decision is already starting to have a massive influence and effect on the streaming industry and who knows how far it'll go at this rate

Suddenly disappeared from the entertainment industry?  No, I can't say I've ever done that to an apple.

Yeah, mocking women who age out of being offered anything in Hollywood is definitely the way to go here.

DrCrybabyForester

Didn't mean to mock at all. Love her work and wish she had done more.

To be honest, I never considered her not being offered roles, and always thought it might be something personal, kind of like Rick Moranis.

[benji]

Why are we not just assuming she sucks at picking projects? Looking at her Wikipedia page she spent most of the 2010s picking TV series (often by friends) that universally did not make it. Looks like before that she was doing similar picking for her movies. Men do this all the time, have people not seen what Al Pacino was starring in the last few decades? You think him and DeNiro would still be in big movies if they were still trying to play their old roles instead of gently making that an inside joke of whatever they're in now?

edit: lmao she already did the kind of movie that older women have done more successfully in recent years:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Women_(2008_film)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_Club_(film)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/80_for_Brady
And had done even before her:

I think he's lost complete control over his campaign. It's been reduced to 4chan level trolling.

please do not call deliberate and obvious deployment of fascist aesthetics trolling. just because trans people don't bother to post in here much (why could this be it is a real mystery) doesn't mean they don't read this shit.

 

[benji]

Really, it's the biggest problem on ResetERA.com. Trans people just not wanting to post in the threads about different topics.

The best way to fight genocide is to be a fucking insufferable cunt.

Where is this from?

BlueSky literally has a leaderboard where you can see which accounts are most blocked, people have been posting it on Twitter and Keffals apparently moved into the top two humans recently as the first two are bots of some kind.

edit: Another horrific BlueSky leaderboard thing: https://vqv.app/stats

I have a bluesky account but ill have to look around for it, the site is so fucking confusing to navigate

[benji]

No idea where to see it because I'm not on it, but you can see lots of examples on Twitter, looks like Vaush has surpassed Keffals since:

Typically I'm on the side of someone the tips 25%.  But scrolled through her videos and she's a Trump supporter, so this time I'm saying she didn't tip enough.

[Snoopy]

Millennial here, but i share the sentiment of the kids Mr. Forbes/fortune or whatever.

I would rather have a nice vacation than to have a Volvo so an asshole with a BMW crashes it while it's parked. All of it so another asshole with an Audi tells me that my Volvo is not getting insurance covering because some dumb reason.

I had a Volvo once. None of this happened to me. Maybe it's only a feature on the millennial model.

Um no? Check food insecurity stats of late.
And this is a “rich” country.

Do you even know what hunger is ? There is no hunger in US

In developing countries the number of hungry people is way down compared to 1970 : https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/prevalence-of-undernourishment-in-developing-countries-since-1970

"why could this be it is a real mystery" 

1) what fucked up kind of grammar is that? 2) poli is probably one of the places in that forum with actual logic (and that's being generous).
