God I fucking love capitalism, earning money and increasing my quality of life one dollar at a time, all while other people waste more effort complaining about there lack of wealth then actually increasing it.



Do you wanna know what the second best part about having things is, its knowing other people don't have it.

Yeah, I wish they would've talked about safety. Keep hearing folks say it looks like a death trap with no crumble zone.

the company, whose first three cars ever produced are the three of the highest rated cars for safety, are gonna suddenly release a death trap of a car.

Imagine being such a coward you hate your family but still fake it for the turkey tendies.

To be fair, a lot of them still live with their parents, so they can't really afford to piss them off.

I have no idea what the Musk-4WD is made out of or anything but I don't understand how people are so confused and keep using this crumple zone hot take. It's needed in other cars because they're intentionally so thin and light.

They don't build crumple zones into tanks. They angle the armor to take and deflect hits. I assume it will be the other cars problem if they hit the Musk-4WD. Which should have its armor angled to best deflect projectiles such as oncoming traffic and bicyclists.

You don't think this is maybe taking it a bit far? Like, maybe you're right but I doubt most people are afraid to interact with mods or to post if a mod is in a thread. Except maybe Nepenthe with the capoiera stuff, she could be standing in front of someone and dropkick the back of their head somehow, other than that they seem pretty reasonable. I think it's good for the community for mods to be active in posting, it shows there's not just some shadowy cabal who you don't know who they are or anything, and so going back to transparency that's a good thing.

lol, spending all that time sucking up to 2 mods, and only being left with the weakest horse in the race now

Deontay Wilder's one punch power is just insane. I watched the Wilder v Ortiz 2 fight, and Ortiz pretty much bossed the fight up until the 7th round. Won every round pretty much. Wilder hardly threw a punch. Then just one punch. One fucking punch by wilder and it is over. You literally have to have the perfect fight where Wilder's right hand doesn't hit you once. Because if it does it's game over.

Looks like it has more to do with Blue Story, a movie about gang violence that has a scene involving a machete fight. It has been banned from the cinema and ban-happy Era is not pleased.

I don't remember most of my teachers either, from elementary through university. No substance abuse, so that's not necessary.

I still clearly remember a very enthusiastic math teacher (who I must have been a disappointement to) and a physics teacher who was tormented by students because we sensed his weakness or something. He was in his sixties and retired before I started secondary education. One time, half the class chanted some song, complete with baging on tables and everything.

I can picture a few more, but I cannot for the life of me remember their names.

Between this and the lack of merchandise available right after the reveal, does Disney not understand what it has on its hands here? Baby Yoda alone is a billion dollar business. I mentioned Baby Yoda to my mom last night and I kid you not, she had tears of love welling in her eyes at the very thought. More than I’ve ever seen when she looks at me.

Also, can you copyright a GIF? I know it’s their IP but I’ve never heard of a copyright claim against a GIF.

What the fuck is wrong with people? Have we been this fucked up for generations? Our country needs less affordable healthcare, not more.

Hold up, I just realized I should have bolded the next sentence, too. I kinda stopped reading at the one I bolded because I figured the post peaked there. Nope. Shoulda read the next one.

Guys I am on your side. It could be any issue from abortion (I am pro choice) to trans rights (I am for full and equal human rights for all humans). But I feel like we aren’t allowed to interrogate the opposing argument, because any time it comes up it is immediately banned. That isn’t healthy if you’re trying to understand the situation in the real world.

I mean, he's not wrong with any of this.

Let's see what Professor Beef thinks of this...

Quote from: Professor Beef
it's not the job of the oppressed to teach the oppressors

if some dumbdick says something idiotic and hateful about minority groups, even if phrased to make it seem like they're "tRYiNg tO HaVe a DiScUsSiOn," then that shit shouldn't be entertained. not all discussion is worth wasting energy on, and it's laughable that someone would complain that they can't do it on this site.
Right. Ok. Sure. Great discussion forum you've got there Cereal.

Here's a tip. If you want a functioning video game discussion site, ban all of the "militant black dudes" and trans activists, ban all of poliGAF, quarantine political discussion to a separate board and let the people who are there to discuss video games do so without fear of being banned for some ridiculous transgression against the groupthink.

If you have no interest in being a video game discussion board (and your personal post history across both NeoGAF and your own personal Frankenstein's monster suggests this is the case), then grow a set of balls, stop exploiting the capital G Gamers and delete the gaming board.

I’m trying to update the old neoGaf slogan for ResetEra in light of recent developments. Does anyone want to see if they can do better than me?

Original:

“NeoGAF is a nexus of hardcore gamers, enthusiast press, and video game industry developers and publishers.”

Mine:

“ResetEra is a nexus of hardcore acephobes, DUI enthusiasts, and a scant few video game industry developers and publishers with longstanding internet addiction issues.”

I am a black woman. I am also a moderator.

This bit of intersectionality has been one of the hardest weeks I as an individual have had to deal with in my life. Right now I'm sitting in my car with a cry-headache trying to leave to go to my brother's house. I barely have the energy.

It's been interesting to see both sides of the spectrum, where on one end my input in threads concerning black representation and issues is valuable because I can speak from life experience and knowledge, and then on the other end I get called a cop with all of the pain and irony that entails simply because I was the fool who said "yes" to volunteering.

I have simultaneously felt valued and valueless throughout this endeavor, and it's made me question whether or not I'm even a good person. I don't know how to parse the emotional toll, other than to just ignore it and make do with what I have and serve the community with the powe rand knowledge I myself have. Because I want this place to succeed. But I admit, my emotions have been all over the place.

That's all. I figured the most appropriate thread to open up in would be this one. To anyone who has given me and the other staff members a kind word, thank you. To anyone else who is dissatisfied with our performance: I understand, and I still apologize. Just remember we are human too.

I will be taking a break. I'm not leaving the forum, or my position, but I think I've exhausted myself to the point where my basic mental and even physical faculties are beginning to degrade. Continuing in my state right now is not fair to myself or to the people who want better.

I don't know how long it'll be either. I guess just long enough to bounce back. I love you guys. See you later!

Hahaha, the jokes never stop! Red Mercury’s response to this dumb pity party calls Nepenthe “smart and perceptive.” What a punchline! These are the kind of people that somehow fuck up making a basic Taco Bell taco. Like, Nepenthe is objectively not smart or perceptive by multiple measures observed in just the past 10 days. Give them that participation trophy, Red!

Quote from: 7 Year Lease on a Versa
I am a black woman. I am also a moderator.

This bit of intersectionality has been one of the hardest weeks I as an individual have had to deal with in my life. Right now I'm sitting in my car with a cry-headache trying to leave to go to my brother's house. I barely have the energy.

It's been interesting to see both sides of the spectrum, where on one end my input in threads concerning black representation and issues is valuable because I can speak from life experience and knowledge, and then on the other end I get called a cop with all of the pain and irony that entails simply because I was the fool who said "yes" to volunteering.

I have simultaneously felt valued and valueless throughout this endeavor, and it's made me question whether or not I'm even a good person. I don't know how to parse the emotional toll, other than to just ignore it and make do with what I have and serve the community with the powe rand knowledge I myself have. Because I want this place to succeed. But I admit, my emotions have been all over the place.

That's all. I figured the most appropriate thread to open up in would be this one. To anyone who has given me and the other staff members a kind word, thank you. To anyone else who is dissatisfied with our performance: I understand, and I still apologize. Just remember we are human too.

I will be taking a break. I'm not leaving the forum, or my position, but I think I've exhausted myself to the point where my basic mental and even physical faculties are beginning to degrade. Continuing in my state right now is not fair to myself or to the people who want better.

I don't know how long it'll be either. I guess just long enough to bounce back. I love you guys. See you later!

Nepenthe got dunked on so hard and thoroughly in that roofie thread that she decided to take a "hiatus." Don't really understand why these people think them being online janitors on a small to medium sized forum is so hard and taxing to their psyche and that we plebs couldn't possibly understand their daily plight. No one's forcing you to be a mod, and 95% of your "issues" would be solved if you all just follow you own TOS and apply it to everyone evenly. Playing favorites for certain cliques and not others is why you're in this mess with your audience.

Also notice that she says all the spiel about how hard it is for her as a mod and yet made a point to say she's not resigning her modship despite going on a hiatus. Apparently being an online jannie supersedes her mental health.
