I formally ID’d as lesbian, now mostly consider myself bi, and am honestly still in conversation with myself wrt my sexual identity daily, so I’d say it’s totally normal for your understanding of your identity to evolve.

I think it's because he's attracted to female genitalia, he would be bi. I too am not an expert.

I don't think anybody on Ree is an expert in female genitalia, son.

If you started questioning because of porn, maybe move towards porn with women and see if you’re still getting turned on, etc, or if the guy element is still crucial to your attraction.
Quote
Yeh, OP, exploring porn with women would be the most obvious first step here imo.
Exploiting women for a man's pleasure. :wag

Quote
Personally I do not feel pornography is adequate to answer this question. There are straight men who enjoy gay porn and vice versa. That wouldn't be unusual.

I definitely wouldn't go uprooting your life around this just based on your reaction to pornography either
"Slut" shaming or dismissing sex work. :wag

You're wasting your time with corporate apologists and bootlickers. There's a defense force for everything.
People have said about violence being targeted too in specific titles, yet you have people saying "b-but it's because western games don't have problematic content" which isn't even the point.

It’s really sad what’s been done to the people of Cuba for standing up to imperialism, racism, and exploitation. These people stood up for each other and ensured that every single person in their community was taken care of, and the propaganda has called this nation-wide solidarity, “authoritarianism.”

I’m really looking forward to reading more about Cuba, and Fidel’s visit to Harlem (as a current and future resident of East Harlem) in our downtime during my partner and I’s honeymoon next week.

Shy has been permed again.

Quote
User banned (permanent): Uncalled for hostility. Extremely long history of similar behavior.

Quote from: Shy
If that was the case, you would have directly quoted me about Rex, instead of talking past me. Just like Drewton did. Just like you all do. Within my first few posts since coming back from a month long ban. And you're jumping on it.

Isn't it enough i walked away from the SW OT? You fuckers gotta follow me around other SW threads as well. It's. so. fucking. tiresome

You wanna have a nice SW convo. I'm more than happy too. But keep your little bitchy ass bullshit to your Discord. Where i know you all love to take the piss.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissing concerns about dictatorships. Dissent is often suppressed in dictatorships, so the lack of popular movements is not evidence that the government is not tyrannical.

If the regime is so tyrannous, why are these movements a minority instead of a majority?
User banned (1 month): Dismissing concerns and attempting to shut down criticism of dictatorships. Previous ban for advocating for violence.

You have two paths open to you as a US citizen, support boots on the ground or support lifting of sanctions/embargos. Griping about "tyrannical regimes" in your media or on social networks does literally nothing for anyone.

Make a material difference or shut it.

Anyway, I see this thing spreading all across twitter and the usual crowd is now advocating US military intervention. Excuse me if this does not strike me as extremely suspect.
User Banned (2 weeks): Antagonization, Hostility, Whataboutism over a series of posts

I don't have to defend that at all. I can support the revolution that kicked out a US. backed mass murdering dictator and still criticise it for poor subsequent decisions.

So, are we going to pretend that Slayvens spoiler thread never happened now that it's been deleted?

That'd be a handy feature for members to have, pruning mistakes.


I cannot believe that it seems acceptable for a moderator to post an open spoiler for a show a day after it aired in a thread subject.

Spoiler and Cross Tags

Many members like to experience entertainment without knowing what to expect from it. This is something that everyone should be mindful of, within reason. For example if you are in a thread about a recently released game and want to discuss information that could only have been acquired by playing it, please hide that information behind tags. Do not include such spoilers in thread titles. We offer two different bbcode tags that can be used for this purpose. Examples and syntax are available below.
Emphasis mine.

And is probably also what prompted this post shortly before:
Quote from: GoemonTheNinja
Any way we could get a way to ignore some mods/admins like other members?

Obviously there's staff communications are always on the page even when you don't see the actual posts, and I'm pretty sure there's ways to bypass the ignores for important stuff. I'm in no way implying I should be able to ignore staff comm, etc.

I just don't see any reason they should be above that considering a lot interact with the community as regular posters.

Since there's slim chance they'll engage with the discussion directly (no responses in there since late June), maybe they should just revoke Slayven's thread making permissions  or make them require permission from an adult.

They didn't even name the character by his usual name or have him in his iconic costume, so its not like you're not already balls deep in comic lore knowing who the character in the show happens to also be in the comics

The spoiler nutters do that shit all the time. Start freaking out because an out-of-context reference is a familiar character or from the ending when the only people who could possibly know that are the ones who know the source material, thus ruining it for everyone.

Yeah I'm highly considering getting one for the cool tech factor. Only use I could see is if I hang out with friends at their place or when I travel for work, but I also own a gaming laptop so it may be pointless.

Well there you have it folks, the reviews have come in. The Steam Deck is not worth your time.

Purchase a Nintendo Switch (OLED model) instead

Could they have possibly made it any uglier short of painting it like WW2 dazzle camouflage?

Nintards definitely getting their feathers ruffled.

It better outperform the Switch since it’s releasing four years later and at $100 more

I mean, why should it, the Switch Pro OLED is $50 more and releasing 4 years later, after all :teehee

If there wasn't already evidence for it, the way some on the left talk about Cuba is prime horseshoe theory shit.  It's no wonder so many in Florida vote Republican when there's not a single public person associated with the right that refuse to place some of the blame on Cuba's government.

I never expected posters on ERA to spit on the views of the BLM movement and embrace the views of the Proud Boys, but here we are.

The simple fact is that the United States wants to overthrow the Cuban government in order to install their own puppet government. They want to return to the days where US interests owned 75% of the arable land, 50% of the sugar industry, and 90% of the electric and transportation industry. Plus significant ownership over other industries such as mining, tobacco, timber and others. It is part of a broader program for American sumpremcy, which nearly ties into white supremacy, as it has historically. That is why you see BLM oppose US backed regime change and why the Proud Boys support it. You can have issues with the Cuban government. It does have many, many issues. BUT, so long as the United States is constantly breathing down their neck, the existing Cuban government is the only thing standing in the way of Cuba becoming a US colony again. That is why it is most important to fight for the US to stop intervening in Cuba before attempting to fight against the Cuban government. Those posters who ignore this fact are basically carrying water for US imperialism, and stating that they do not give a shit if Cuba becomes a US colony again so long as the current government is ousted.

Specifically talking about Cuban Americans here, which of course aren't immune to brain rot either.

I think this post in that thread sums it up well:  https://www.resetera.com/threads/miami-herald-%E2%80%98we-are-not-afraid-%E2%80%99-cubans-take-to-the-streets-to-demand-freedom-food-vaccines.455587/page-11#post-69526387

Also I want to note these kinds of BLM posts all the whataboutism blaming america makes it impossible to change the minds of these Republican voters. A lot of the younger generation born from Cuban parents are more open, plenty are democrats. We try yo have discussions with our elders, many times it’s about as pointless as talking to wall BUT some do listen. But when the left starts to put out statements like that, and continuously downplay the atrocities of the the Cuban government, or worse celebrate it, that ends any argument I can give. I’m done, I got nothing, they will use that till the end of time and now you just created more Republican voters. Some younger Cubans that maybe can be swayed are going to be lost. It’s such easy ammo for the Republicans to use. And I know Republicans will use this and twist it around for their gain just as much, but let’s not get down to their level.

I guess it is finally OK to openly shit on terrible games journalism again. Seems like the "Gamer Gate pass" games journalism enjoyed over the pass 7 years has finally started expiring, at least on Ree.

Many of the takes in that thread would have gotten you banned for "dismissive gamer gate rhetoric" not too long ago.

A lot of lefties have soft spot for the Cuba Revolution and Castro even when people point out that is still an authoritarian dynasty. One of the biggest lefty newspapers in my country published columns written by Fidel Castro regularly until his death.

Leftist really tend to forget that people escaped from that country for a reason.
