Shitting on TMZ because they confirm where celebrities were and when quicker is petty

Era getting back to it.

I bet families love to hear that their loved one died before they were even informed by the police

Isn't she just saying that it's kind of bad so many people believed a fake tweet? Forgive me if I don't understand.

She's basically saying that those who'd believe a fake tweet about a noted transphobe are literally Nazis

no, but I can see why you of all people might have this interpretation

But wait, there's more:



I feel so bad for her- tweeting out a rape case allegation story, from THREE FUCKING YEARS AGO, on someone who just died, and getting shit on for it.  Boo-hoo.  :'(

It's insanity. She didn't even bother to Tweet a 'RIP but' first but went straight in.
All while the emergency services are still working at the scene. 

Literally posted someone else's story and then went "BUT I DIDN'T WRITE THAT AND IT WAS FROM THREE YEARS AGO WHY U MAD THO??"  I'd almost think it was a troll.

She deleted the tweets and went back to her regularly scheduled programming

A Hotwife is a married woman who has the freedom in her marriage to pursue sexual relationships with men other than her husband. Her husband has full knowledge of her activities and consents to them.

If yes has it improved your sex life dramatically? How do you manage jealousy? And do you see other women as well with her consent?

From the RedLetterMedia thread:

.  Yeah...even if they ignored the movies, Picard was always a mentor to Data on the ways of humanity. So much Shakespeare on the holodeck. They were definitely good friends, though I think the movies and the show always wanted them to be akin to Kirk and Spock, which really doesn't fit the characters.

Man, Rich really loves his post racial utopia too much, without exploring the logistics to get there. He basically wants his golden-age Federation back without reflecting on whether it was 1.) sustainable (it wasn't, was cracking at the seams from the very beginning) or 2.) truly was a utopia for the people who inhabited it (it wasn't, and the plight of the marginalized even within the Federation was a major focus of so many great episodes). He basically wants cozy fantasy, not science-fiction. And it's so strange for them to be praising Gene so much when TNG only became consistently great when it stepped out from his outdated vision.

Is Picard the show that will usher in more optimistic sci-fiction? I don't know yet. But I think Picard the character on a journey to remind the Federation of its lost ways and to hopefully a better future is by far the most compelling aspect of the show. It's a shame they can't see that.

Lol. This is like when Mike and Jay though the Force Awakens was just a initial Launching point and the nostalgia fest will stop in the next films (or Mike believing Star Trek Reboot will become less dumb after the first film). They are just learning that this is not going to happen as long of the Bad Robot alumni is involved on this stuff. I seriously doubt this will happen, even if the actually are attempting this, given their incompetence.

While I feel their review was kind of nitpicking and Rich is truly mostly an idiot about racial issues, it weird me out when RE defends this types of updates to famous franchises when they despise DC films so much (that do this exact thing as bad).

Well, he actually made a pretty decent ‘apology’ while not admitting the assault. Probably better than most sport personalities.

[benjipwns]

https://www.resetera.com/threads/japanese-media-and-homo-transphobia-and-queer-issues-video-games-live-action-anime-manga-etc.166808/

First off, this is partially related to the issue that recently cropped up in the Goemon Fan Translation thread which is why I'm making this thread, so might be best to keep the whole discussion there for now, though feel free to discuss the issue here (of course)

Second, given my experience watching a lot of anime (and playing a ton of Japanese video games) as a Gay man, it's been an interesting experience, to say the least. Both good and bad, and largely the latter. I felt we could have a discussion about the issues present in Japanese media in this thread and specifically talk about the problems that come up here. While I believe we've had focus more on the Western side, I wanted to talk about some issues that have cropped up over the decades (and some as recent as within the last decade).

That said, there's actually a reason I wanted to make this thread in the first place.

I recently watched the first episode of Ultimate Zero Battle Spirits, which is a long ongoing Card Game series by Bandai and Sunrise/BN Pictures. While the anime has been on break for a bit now (with a new project this year), I decided to check out one particular series I always had interest in, due to it's unique art style (which isn't nearly as common place in anymore anymore).




Anyways, a little over halfway, we get introduced to the Time Bokan style gang (think Team Rocket for those unfamiliar), Ginga Sanba Garasu, who attempt to steal this kid's compass. One of the characters, Hashibuto, is an extremely effeminate and non-binary character, who is... I'll be blunt, problematic in various ways.

Character in Question:


I knew about them going into the series, but I'd been hoping they'd avoid some of the more serious issues. Anyways, they do their song and dance (literally), similar to the various trio introductions, and then it ends with probably the most tasteless and offensive joke they could make.

I'm just gonna link to my tweet in question, which includes the video and follow up scene:

https://twitter.com/Mendinso/status/1221303482927312897


Not only does "Mugen" (the red monster creature) say "You know, that's kinda gay.", it also works as a pun, using the word "Gei" (芸), meaning "Performance" "Artistic Skill". It's a double whammy and it's absolutely the worst tasteless thing that they could do.

This is a show, targeted to kids, aired next to Super Sentai, at 7AM on Sunday mornings. It also aired arguably fairly recent (between September 2013 to September 2014). The fact they got away with this, especially given networks had banned the word "Homo" from broadcasts due to it's derogatory nature, really irritates me to no end, especially when the queer community now uses the English word "Gay" in Japan, rather than the older term.

While there's becoming more and more LGBTQ+ friendly shows/series in Japan, over the years, there's obviously still issues present in media there.

Anyways, does anyone have any examples (both positive and negative) to share here? Would absolutely like to hear it.

Okay dude, you are going kind of RE on this.

[Transhuman]

Tbh I don't care about Kobe either way but I hate seeing people being told how to feel

You know the brilliant thing about Ari's tweet is that it won't reach mainstream media, because that would force them to talk about the rape case (which no-one is willing to do). It's sort of perfect.

[railGUN]

"R.I.P. to those whose names aren't being mentioned. Your life was equally important and blessings to the families for all parties included."

I keep seeing this reposted and shared on my Facebook. Not sure what to make of it -- seems nice on the surface, but the only people reposting are those that frequently share vaguely racist or right-wing content. Like they're vaguely resentful that this one black guy's death might somehow overshadow the deaths of some anonymous white folks.

  hmmm how can I turn this into a discussion about racism.

 

[Boredfrom]

Don’t care that much about Kobe either, but I don’t like to speak ill of the recently deceased, specially since one of his daughters also died with him. Is bad taste all around.

I could argue that you are also telling us how people should feel by saying: “he was a rapist, don’t celebrate him”.
Is silly how the media is trying to make him a saint but he was a genuinely beloved figure.

[Lonewulfeus]

That rape case was hardly some slam dunk Trans.  The girl refused to testify after admitting to weirdly lying about some details.

He cheated on his wife but that’s hardly some shocking thing for someone thrust into fame so young.

TIL Kobe’s accuser’s name is fame

[benjipwns]

Is it too soon to post Kobe's police interview transcript about what happened?

[railGUN]

I am honestly surprised at how REE is handling this, allowing for a RIP thread and banning any chatter about his rape accusation.

I'm glad they are going that route, but it flies in the face of SO MANY threads on REE where bans with messages like "dismissing serious rape allegations" or "supporting rape" or "undermining the experiences of rape victims" would be getting handed out like tic-tacs.

I googled a few Kobe REE threads, from the past couple of years, and yeah, there is a bunch of posters who are probably raging at that thread (KetKat in particular).

 

[Boredfrom]

Unlike Potato or NegativeCrepe, I don’t think RE acting classy about this death is particularly because Kobe is black and more about he being a iconic figure, being relatively clean for years and getting a lot of spotlight before this incident.

They superficial pricks, is what I’m trying to say, nobody is willing to shit on him like he was total biscuit because normal people actually care about this death celebrity.
