The Reesistance Grows Strongerhttps://www.resetera.com/threads/if-you-still-have-a-nyt-subscription-please-consider-cancelling-it.70579/
Texted my wife to cancel her sub.
I cancelled my sub months ago when they started to kiss the administrations ass and give platforms to shitheads. Fuck the Times for bending the knee.
I'm glad we're done with the whole "support NY Times because Trump is tough on them!" shtick. They don't deserve everyone's cheer-leading.
Hitting them where it hurts makes them wake the fuck up and realize they have a responsibility they've been neglecting on occasion. For such a reputable, wide reaching, influential outlet that should happen only once in a blue moon.
Yeah I finally cancelled earlier this year after a string of irresponsible reporting and shitty op-eds and that trend seems to have not stopped. They absolutely do some good stuff over there, but I didn't feel comfortable giving them money anymore with some of their shit, which is unfortunate since I really believe in paying for sites etc to support them.
NYT had historically been shitty, because they are the status quo Mag. And when you are talking issues like:Nazis pre and during WW2VietnamThe Iraq WarEtc.They have messed up a lot. It's partially why the Post is so important.
Please stop making inflammatory generalisations about games journalism or particular media outlets. Please bear in mind that this is part of our FAQ:QuoteThe same goes for people who are covering the video games industry: vilifying an entire media outlet for any reason is typically unhelpful. It is crucial to understand that these people share a similar high passion for this hobby as you do and try their best to do their jobs. These outlets are not monoliths but groups of people that keep changing over the years. None of them are perfect and while reasoned discussion is always welcome, try to refrain from dismissing a website or magazine for petty reasons.

Back to attacking Smithsonian ladies.
I posted on twitter but I'm not working today and have nothing to walk out of, I can't find anyone organizing near me, that rapid response had a lot around me. I'll look and see if I can find something in the city though!
One country's army massacres 61 foreign civilians under its custody.How do you cover that,if you're @NYtimes? You ask *the perpetrators* how THEY feel.Front page article:"Israelis reflect: I hope at least that each bullet was justified".
Cancelled a few months ago when they defended hiring that idiot Sarah Jeong.
And just like Chris Jericho, we're sick of you showing up
User banned (duration pending review) - sexist concern trolling and inflammatory false equivalences + severe prior infractionThe success of books and movies like fifty shades of grey shows that less mainstream sexual options are not entirely niche. I would expect a lot of women will be into things like submission/domination, fantasy role play including subject matters that perhaps the majority would find tasteless.That doesn’t make it wrong.If someone is into submission for example - does that make them a weak person? Or simply someone that chooses to enact that during sex play?Those in here decrying this as demeaning to women are effectively deciding what is best for them
"People who choose to submit sexually are powerful and strong and do not deserve to be demeaned. That's why I'm going to compare them to rape and slavery forced on someone without a choice. Because they're exactly the same thing and you guys are the ones who are demeaning their kink."Please explain.
Yes there maybe women aroused in this hypothetical fantasy, and what you enjoy kink wise is nothing that people should take umbridge with but using that to justify something that represents severe oppression and violence under sex sells? However stating that because your hypothetical women enjoys it is completely a non issue. Which is clearly false given it was pulled based on response from the public. Please see Morri's post below:Quote from: MorrisonIt's funny how eager some of you are to staunchly defend the hypothetical women (none of which have come forward yet) wanting to wear this costume, all whilst subtly criticizing all of us actually chiming in here saying this costume is awful (and making sure to tell us we don't speak for all women, of course) when in fact there was enough of an uproar that the store itself actually removed the costume.Hell, if there was such a demand for those free-thinking women, you'd think they would have kept the costume in their store anyway for all that $$$.

As someone who is submissive, the fact that you're trying to tie this costume to BDSM is ridiculous. There's a large difference between something meant for kink wear and a company mass marketing a symbol of women's oppression as a sexy Halloween costume.
I'd say there's bit of a difference what people do in their personal bedrooms compared to partying in public.
One of the reasons I go into work so early is so I could get my foulest work of the day done privately in a toilet that isn’t my own. Leave it to the Hispanics to handle that one, you know? I’ve never cleaned my bathroom and I don’t plan on ever doing so, so let’s leave the nukes to the people that do clean their bathrooms.
Hahahahahaha. So they are no longer #resistance? What about WaPo? Are they the resistance now?This place is fucking dumb as shit sometimes.
this is where your reckless disregard for the people's desires leads:spoiler (click to show/hide)THESE ARE THE KIND OF PSA'S CANADA MAKES [close]

Miyamoto would puke if he saw this thread.
It's interesting how they're slowly starting to hate on media and the press.

Sympathy for Disney and Marvel is their main compass in the political spectrum.

Quote from: Philip Cardgage on September 24, 2018, 11:25:22 AMSo... we can't post deviant artwork here? I didn't see that in the TOS.What does the TOS say about having a NSFW avatar? There are no NSFW avatars. You can turn off avatar displays in your profile settings so that's not a work issue.

Wow! They are actually doing it!!!
Either make Bowser canonically trans or don't botherAnd considering how Nintendo has delt with Birdetta/Catherine in the past....If it is not canon would just be a way to make a game with a woman as protagonist without actually using a woman as protagonist.
The Bowsette stuff is kind of fascinating if only because makes it clear that Nintendo stans are as perverted as any sonic fans.
Is there enough time to mass produce slutty Bowsette costumes before Halloween?
need a chibi bowsette "resist" avatar
