Yesterday, for our final session of our campaign at level 20, I played #dnd with my friends in person for the first time since the pandemic started. It was so great getting to see them all again. I can’t wait until this is all over and we can go back to doing this every week 😢❤️
What do you even say. Every qualitative and quantitative metric shows that “trans women in men’s prisons” is a policy that, materially, creates a culture of systematic sexual assault. And they laugh, and as they call us perverts, fantasize about us being raped
This is one of the AI things that bugs me the most. Search always understood that if I input a bunch of key words in I just want those words repeated back to me from results. Now it does this
@poe_collector@agent_duckman I think he’d bounce off it. The mtg player base doesn’t care about slabs, and so many players are sick of WotC’s shit that many proxy anyway already. Combine that with high value cards mainly having value due to playability instead of collectibility, he’d have diminishing returns
I don’t really care if this makes me look like the out of touch Zillennial I am - there is something deeply fucking fascistic in the state of the youth culture. The 4chan guys at least actively recognize it. Most people don’t! They think they’re not falling into it!
it’s this idea that awful/morally disgusting people also must be ugly, unappealing, unskilled, anything undesirable or considered negative by social acceptability norms. and by extension to maintain your "goodness" you must suddenly see all their work as terrible, them as ugly, +
@poe_collector I’ve been replaying this and 100% agree. My most hardcore souls friend picked Proud on KH1 (the hardest difficulty) and regretted it almost immediately bc he assumed it didn’t have teeth. We keep joking that we can’t believe it’s a game for children
I’m sorry, but giving a character an unmistakable child-like face, only to attach it to an adult’s body – and a sexualised adult body at that – is a weird choice. End of discussion.
Insane to think that all through the 90s we were told we absolutely had to let the Klan march in American cities to protect free speech and now they're withholding diplomas, firing people, imposing travel bans, qmd running weekslong smear campaigns for saying the word genocide.
@lyhyolanda@crazygooseygoos@benshotonfilm Cause nobody else replied, and the best way to get a right answer on the internet is to give a wrong one. Best case I’m right, worst case someone corrects me
@crazygooseygoos@benshotonfilm As someone completely out of the loop myself (and has only seen In the Mood for Love from WKW), my base assumption is just that since he’s thought of as a Hong Kong filmmaker, that’s probably enough for them, given historical relations between HK and China
@spaceghost The Love Witch is so good. Insane to me more movies don’t look like this when we do, in fact, have the technology. Though it’s clear from the acting that they put every dollar this movie had into its cinematography lmao
