Era: The thread

https://www.resetera.com/threads/i-dont-understand-people-satisfied-to-be-at-work-never-felt-that-way.679123/


Quote
I see coworkers smiling and having fun, I've heard stories from coworkers that they come to work to keep busy and get out of the house, and they genuinely (not masked) seem at least satisfied to spend time there. They enjoy being busy, they like their jobs, ect.

I feel like I've never felt this way. I hate getting up, I hate scheduling around work, I hate not having control of my time, and I hate being there. It feels like a massive waste of my time and I always just want to go home asap, I don't care if we are getting a "free day", just talking with eachother, having cake, laughing, ect. I wanna go home, I have stuff to do and I wanna hang out with my friends.

Quote
Maybe they have an annoying spouse or kids at home that they want some reprieve from?
Quote

The entire concept of work goes against my entire being and if I didn't need money to love and enjoy the things I like I would instantly quit.

I have never understood the people who win the lottery or are super rich and still feel the need to work. To me you must just be a super boring fuck with no interests to not be able to be happy without working.
 
Quote

I hate work and am actively working on a way to not have to do it anymore.




Quote
I'm the same way, OP. I would rather be home/not working 100% of the time. Doesn't matter the job.

I hear people at work complain all the time after a vacation or long weekend: "So happy to be back at work, I was losing my mind with nothing to do!"

Fuck all that shit, how miserable is your life outside of work to have that attitude? Lol.

I have enough games, movies/TV, and books I'd like to experience to last a lifetime. Additionally, if I didn't work I'd have time/energy to improve myself with working out more, learning to cook better meals and having the time to prepare them, picking up additional hobbies, etc. I would never "get bored" and miss working if I could just never work again.

Ah, very clever tactical protest experts knowing exactly the right ways to behave and how to 'win' a battle (usually without attending the protest, or any protests). Boring and meek as fuck every time.

Also, again, I support the sign sincerely.

Some of the rhetoric and dismissive attitude they have for women concerns would have them be labeled alt-right/incels and insta-banned if they were any other group.

That one post agreeing with the sign should get the thread closed as mods realize how far gone these lunatics are. Instead it will get met with some laughs and they’ll carry on since they have the power over the mods, having now two separate games banned from being discussed.

It is still ludicrous they let the people who aren’t moderators tell them what to do. And at the first sign of a protected member being treated like everyone else, or everyone ignoring their ban bait attempts and talking around them, they throw tantrums until they get their way.

If anyone reported it there would probably be a 50% chance they'd get banned themselves while the chance of the looney getting banned is pretty much zero

The upside is that users appear to have taken the news reasonably well. There are no obvious examples of users bombarding other threads in complaint. No spam campaigns rapidly posting new threads on the game to give the mods a hard time. An unexpected result, given the amount of back-and-forth online certainly, but nice to see.

People as a whole have “taken the news well” because they don’t see the point in arguing. They’ll be dog piled and banned for questioning the decision, so they just roll their eyes and are no doubt just going to discuss the game with others in a Discord or something. All you have to do is look at the locked thread where numerous people said the game was going to be one they pick up in February to see how many on the site will be playing it.

:cop User Banned (1 Month): Concern Trolling; History of Dismissive Commentary around Race
Quote from: SilentRob
Don't know if putting a random festival worker on blast openly like this for likely doing what he is being told by his superior is, uh, a great idea?

Why not just thank the actor/publicist, or at least protect the privacy of the festival representative in any way by blurring his face for example? You absolutely know the dude is going to be harassed to no end for this and that reddit is about 2 minutes away from identifying him and his home address. Maybe you can even see his name in his laynard?

That's fucked up.

:cop User Banned (Duration Pending): Dismissive commentary in a sensitive thread, previous severe ban for concern trolling around transphobia and racism
Quote from: SneakersSO
Again to folks wanting to use her sidelining as a springboard towards Gege being inherently sexist, you have to completely factor out what Gege did with Naoya and Maki, and not just once but twice. For a story that wants to be lean and wrap up quickly, Gege has given a fuck ton of screen time to a character who was not considered a primary cast member, gave them incredible badass moments, and from a feminist point of view, has drawn her in completely non-sexualized ways and even left her fully scarred from her previous fights.

Maki is not a pretty character. She has done heinous things, including killing off her own family members, and has directly destroyed the narrative incarnation of misogyny twice. Gege did all this while taking precious screen time away from all of their other story threads, in a story that he is purposefully trying to keep lean. I get it, you want Nobara as well, and i'm sure she will be returning, which is going to make this thread seem as pointless as it is.

One of the main female characters is out of commission (people don’t know if death or alive) and the plot is in a nosedive after last arc (not mention that the Author has said he is ending the series soon).

But…

Like the banned user mentioned, one part of the current act was about another female character destroying her abusive patriarchal clan, whose head was an outright misogynist even by Japan standards. That character is muscular girl that ended with a ton of scars after previous arc.

You could still argue that the current arc focuses to much in male characters and people are disappointed because the plot has become more confusing and rushed so everyone suffers, but is clear it isn’t because the author lack of trying (has a lot of health issues).

Hence, some trigger happy mod banned someone for essentially nothing.

Won't somebody think of the children and PLAYSTATION™??? As if it wasn't clear that these allegations are nothing but fanboy fabrications. There was ZERO outrage over this game, not even "as jay dubjah" quips. The truth is: no one cares about this game. If anything, the main character design was probably the only saving grace for most.

Either way, since I don't want anyone to minsunderstand me, a quick reminder that I sincerely support the decapitation of Nintex and all Nintendo fans.

If multimillionaire game developer and former PlayStation employee David Jaffe does eventually purchase the PlayStation exclusive FORESPOKEN at the $70 initial asking price it’ll be a huge endorsement of that product. Sources say after withdrawing his finger from the X button he suspended the PS Store app on his PS5 to tweet about social justice slacktivism in gaming, but he is considering re-opening the app to think about the purchase a bit more if his Twitter replies start slowing down.

Noted Pros of purchasing FORSPOKEN include owning all the haters and supporting black women. Implied Cons include parting with $70 and having to play FORESPOKEN. Updates to follow.

He made some apology video in 2020 and then jumped on the "progressive" bandwagon.

Nowhere in the article does Chappelle mention the n-word, much less compares it to the term TERF. He talks blithely and ignorantly about his protestors, which is worthy of condemnation on its own without callously weaponizing anti-Black racism as clickbait.

Nep reminding trans members to step lightly when it comes to anti-Black racism.

Because he can't fathom of other people being oppressed. He's singularly focused on his own particular experience and the idea that trans people are suffering makes him super mad. He doesn't even acknowledge the fact that black trans women have been forerunners for just about every bit of social progress we've had in this country over the past century, he just paints all trans folks with the same brush and writes them all off at once.

The best part of this is her not reading the fucking thread before making the post and banning OP. Responses to her post immediately note that that information was there, Variety edited it out after-the-fact, and post #7 in the thread includes the actual quote making the comparison:

Quote from: BWoog

"These were grown people of various genders and gender identities," Chappelle said. "They threw eggs. They threw eggs at the [fans] who were lined up to see the show… They was doing all that shit. Throwing eggs and they had this rallying cry: they go, 'Go home transphobe.' They kept saying that: 'Go home, transphobe,' and 'fuck you, transphobe.' It was really confusing, but if you replace the word transphobe for n—– it makes perfect sense."

So it was people from all walks of life...calling you the n-word. Got it. Makes total sense.

Being called out a lot in the thread so I assume the ban will get reversed, but glad 3 mods approved the ban after carefully not reading to post 7 in the thread.

(I don't expect full walk-back; I expect OP to still be chastised for not quoting the right things directly in their post/making a content-free post. Because mods are _never_ all the way wrong.)

My manager was talking about how she and her boyfriend was going to see his standup with Chris Rock for her birthday over a group Teams chat and I just.... I unfortunately stayed quiet. Because what do I say? She's black, so is it my position for my cis-white-ass to try to speak up about it and tell a black fan to not go see a black comedian? Our black colleagues in our team were gushing about how much fun she'll have too.

Feel like if I said something I'd play right into what was mentioned earlier in this thread: with Chappelle having stated trans people are only white people trying to paint themselves as minorities.....

It's an understandable mistake that I'm sure will be fixed now that people have pointed out that the article was edited after the OP posted it.

 :neogaf :mueller :show

Expecting ERA mods--and Nep at that--to admit to a mistake and making a correction.

Article was edited to remove key parts, so mods didnt see the original, simple mistake
right but they could have also read 7 posts into the thread instead of jumping to a wild ass conclusion and firing off a ban lmao
