Too many hot takes in that thread 

My favourite is the people saying it's a PR stunt for Sega.

some people have managed to convince themselves that the rumured upcoming google console is a stealth sega partnership, and sega are returning to console gaming in a big way, with a slew of all favorite ips being googlebox exclusive.

some people are fucking idiots living in a dreamworld of their own making.

It’s going to be a lackluster android box with an emulator running the same 50 genesis titles included in every retro compilation.

yeah, thats pretty much whatever involvement sega are going to have with the googlebox. That and the Football Manager port.

I don't know whether to trust Hurd or Depp, but I 100% believe that blind item. Anyone who has scanned twitter in the last 24 hours should be able to tell that the dozens (or hundreds?) of accounts tweeting in support of Depp seem suspicious. I haven't seen this level of (presumed) bot activity on twitter since Trump's 2016 campaign.

It's like that joke about the Photoshop expert saying that it is Photoshopped, you can see the pixels are wrong.

I can't really blame them. They're 20 year olds that have been indoctrinated with it their whole life. It was like me and nuclear war in 80's. I was convinced that the world was going to end in a nuclear winter because it's all I knew.


But then there's other cunts who are just miserable people that want the world to end because they  hate themselves and blame modern society for their lot.

Cream took the perm from here really hard

A woman has been charged with multiple hate crime felonies and misdemeanors following a series of pepper spray attacks in New York City.

In one alleged incident, Heard, who is black is accused of approaching a white couple in their 50s on Friday afternoon while they shopped in the Bronx. She reportedly told the couple she hated white people before assaulting them.

"They were approached by the defendant who kicked both victims and sprayed a substance in their face," an NYPD spokesperson stated in an email. "The victims suffered minor injuries."

The other alleged incident for which Heard has been charged is similar in nature and occurred Saturday in the Bronx.

"The defendant approached a 30-year-old male and a 24-year-old female, asked them if they were white and displayed a sharp object causing fear," the NYPD stated. "The female victim was sprayed in the face with an unknown substance causing redness, burning and discomfort."

Court documents did not list an attorney for Heard, who is transgender and referred to in official documents and police reports by her legal first name, Thomas.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

The sticky part about all of this that she has a point, but she’s making it extremely poorly. So criticism of her making these points poorly turns in to “well you’re just being misogynistic.”

This is honestly horseshit. What about her point is made poorly? You can criticize her if you can stick to a facts based argument that doesn't obtusely lose the point to harp on minor details.

The issue is people are not doing that. If these people can give legit criticism of film then they are not allowed to lose plainly obvious points that aren't spoon fed to them without getting called out. This extends to all critics who do this surfave level examination.

I just want to hear a criticism that isn't reductive horseshit and tone policing. If people cant express that then they have nothing of value to add to the discussion.

Brie Larsons right, nobody cares what 40 year old white dudes have to say. Thats why I'm so mad about what these 40 year old white dudes said.

I straight up told Maria that Im used to it. Its 100% not right for sure.... But it is what it is. This wasn't my first rodeo, Ive had cops called on me before for no reason. Its just a reality of the country we live in and a sign of the times basically.

She said "this country has always been like this"

I explained to her that people come with judgments and preconceived notions. Everything is about pushing fear nowadays. The blond lady didn't know me. She doesn't know Im waiting for the library, She doesn't know I have law enforcement family, just that something about me bothered her, and she followed her instinct. Maria told me again that "it doesnt make her right".

Maria is clearly torn up about it. I told her again not to internalize it, and to don't let it ruin her day or take over her thoughts. Again she told me "Im going to do the opposite Digital, Im going to find a way to share this because I never thought Id see it up close... you hear about it... but to see it? Its already stuck in my mind. When the lady comes to get her kid, Im going to tell her about this."

Maria isn't black, but she also isn't white and makes a perfect token ally in this fanfic. We could all learn to be a little but more like Maria.

Maria seems like an awesome person, definitely get her some gifts next time you're there.

Maria watches that woman's kid.

She knows her name.

The woman needs to be turned in for a false police report. Whoever the "law enforcement" in your family is, needs to address this.

Good on Maria for recognising what it was and opening up about it.
