Those parts are true, thought.

It doesn't matter if one part is true or not, it's the contradiction.

Oh, I agree. But in the case of Musk, he has actual monetary and political power beyond the other two, so I feel he having a very public meltdown and hissy fit because perceived cultural grievances is a little worrisome... specially since the last sad narcissist loser ended being the president of the US just to spite others.

Also the right wing seems to be capitalizing on this court case with regards to trying to reverse all the progress made by MeToo which is frankly disgusting -- this is why I think this zealous support of Depp should be kept in check because the prevailing narrative atm seems to be see all women are liars when it comes to domestic violence. There is a real chance women's rights could be affected by a huge popular culture phenomenon like this.

Forget Roe v Wade, Depp v Heard is the real battleground for women's rights!

Their next post seals it:

So then maybe Heard shouldn't have invented this whole thing?

so you think all women should suffer because of one woman's (alleged) misbehavior, wtf?

Obviously I don’t think that Elon Musk is a fascist mastermind obsessed  in ending democracy. I just think he is a lonely rich narcissist asshole that misses the time people took seriously his claims of saving the planet with EV and space travel.

People are feeding the troll and I feel we will end with another Trump given how petty the guy is.

It's pretty crazy how often I see those stickers at the gas pump.

I think a key distinction is that Elon's interest in Twitter seems more plausibly explained by other things than political power. (Elon's also restricted in that he can't become President.)

Donald Trump had always desired political power, specifically the Presidency, he just never understood (and probably still doesn't understand) how to acquire it until "owning the libs" became a viable political platform.

This is a guy who wanted to move to Canada after the 2016 election and now he's watching Youtube channels like The Quartering and Doomcock and holds a grudge against Funimation for its "treatment of Vic Mignogna"

The key issues affecting the USA today...

Of course everyone says to cut the friend off lol

Figure out how he’s hurting. That’s what all this shit stems from.

I almost fell down that rabbit hole (didn’t get far, but I browsed /r/kotakuinaction for instance) years ago, when I was in a really bad place. Honestly, my life was shit, and for whatever reason, it angered me to see people getting upset over what I considered non-issues.

I don’t know what snapped me out of it, but at a certain point I realized I wasn’t really angry with them, I was angry with myself and my own life. I finally figured out that people don’t just complain to complain, and these issues were being brought up for very real reasons, and if I didn’t fully understand it, I had two options: either listen, or shut up.

Your friend is either going to have to reconcile his own pain and realize it’s not happening because other people want to be treated better and listened to.

It’s no secret the alt-right preys on vulnerable young men and boys who are in pain and angry. They harness that anger and point at others. They make it seem like it’s all a zero-sum game: if other’s lives improve, your already shitty life will get worse.

Back in 2016 I was in DC for a meeting. Around when The Emails were nonstop covered on CNN. I was walking around and saw this large group all with MAGA hats. Thought “huh, these people are real?” and of course they are but I must live in a liberal minded bubble. Haven’t seen the hats since, or the stickers, or anything of the sort. Once saw a Gary Johnson bumpersticker, though. That was a treat.

I think this all has to do with where you live

though to an extent there may be something to the idea that the right is "old school," physical products, pins and shirts...and also that right wing politicians happily grift and sell to their audience

left wing more readily adopts technology and the internet, makes tons of comics and art to be shared, and its politicians understand that IRL products are cringe

the left also understands that since the right are the ones with guns and prone to violence, outwardly signaling your allegiance is more risky to your person and property; conversely a good pacifist democrat will not vandalize a home for having a trump flag

If I need to guess, you didn’t really changed but now you are getting angry for others non-issues because you are still angry with your own life. The fact that you are still using that shit of “shut up and listen” feels like you are more concerned about feeling you belong somewhere rather than improving your own issues, as you identified you are angry with yourself and your life.

Is also annoying how you know life is not a zero-sum game while encouraging a zero sum rhetoric: “SHUT THE FUCK YOU PRIVILEGED ASSHOLE”.

But that is the point: Why play this game? All people in politics are assholes, some a little more than others. Why identify with a person because perceived cultural agreements when is more likely the guy is just for power. People of both sides that associate “free speech” with Trump when is clear that Trump could care less about it outside of him (and only him) being allowed to say stupid shit at twitter.

Is just gross seeing evangelicals getting wet because Trump while the guy has probably paid a lot of abortions himself.

It's most agitating of all because not only has Trump since the 1980's called for not just freeing of lawsuits against but also actual criminal prosecution of those who don't speak the way he wants but in this specific instance he (well, his cult supporters, he's actually been weirdly restrained about his Twitter ban like he knows he went too far) wants to restrict Twitter's free speech.

I don't do this.

But today while applying gel-based deodorant to my armpits I had a wild idea...using it on the outer rim of your buttcheeks (not going too deep in obviously) to keep it fresh especially during the summer months when buttsweat is a real issue.

Now, obviously you'd want to buy a separate tube of deodorant from the one you use for your armpits, but would this not be kind of smart? Not that people probably smell your bottom as much as they do your armpits, but I feel like the knowledge that hypothetically you smell fresh down there would be pretty reassuring,

I've yet to test this myself because I worry there's some sort of potential rash-based issue I'm overlooking, but like, this doesn't seem like the craziest idea?

Edit: I'd like to say I think I'm pretty hygienic down there as is (I shower and use wet wipes) but you know no harm in doing more.

The purpose of the tool is to gauge whether the game presents diversity to the audience. For that purpose, what you can perceive in the game is all that matters. Whether a character might secretly be gay or secretly have a disability is irrelevant to that if it is not presented in the game.

You may be thinking "It's entirely fine that a character's sexual orientation doesn't come up in a racing game." I can agree with that. However, if you ask "is this game presenting diversity in sexual orientation?" then the correct answer is 'no.' So the tool is correct.
