This seems like a bad idea because it would probably be impossible for tech companies to keep up with these standards. Evnetually they'll have to leave the country or else risk being endlessly fined or sued, no?

At the same time, I fucking hate bullies, they plague the internet and cause so much damage and harm to others.

If so, then the Republicans have been right the whole time about his mental facilities.

what a shitty fucking post.

Right back at ya.

That doesn't even make sense...but ok....

Great job with the ageism.

Your post was a shitty fucking post as well.

WTF ageism are you talking about? People can stop thinking critically at any age. Plenty of people his age that are able to discern reality from whatever world they've created in their mind.

LOL calling you out for a shitty post? Ok buddy.

I'm SO sure you'd have said that about say Obama at 47 even though he also tried to work with Repubs. Your transparency is obvious. Just stop.

You LITERALLY defended Republicans conspiracy theories which are based on ageism. Congrats.

I'm not going to argue a stupid hypothetical with you bro. Maybe the loss of his son hit him harder than he's let on, maybe he's always been stupid but has stopped caring enough to put on a facade, maybe it is age. If he really believed that he could reach across the aisle, there's something wrong with his brain.

Again, Obama also believed it and there were no accusations of dementia. Congrats on giving credence to a bullshit Republican conspiracy theory, one pushed by Trump and company. What a great group to be part of.

I remember pretty clearly a lot of them on ERA openly advocated for such online conduct laws because: 
01.) They are reactionary
02.) Naive enough to think it will only apply to "bad" people they tar and feather as Nazis/GamerGators/Incels.

Now that a right-leaning government is instituting the kinds of online conduct laws they cheered for--and still do on many occasions--they are now having second thoughts, which would have branded you "not a good ally" and have sarcastic and condescending "freeze peach" remarks thrown your way not too long ago.

You hate to see it folks.

Nintendo fans have started to leave and are on different boards now. Lately its been hard to express any positivity towards Nintendo without someone who probably has no intent or interest in playing the games anyway just coming and bashing you. The trolling is quite subtle but tiring. It's better to just stick to boards that are Nintendo based, where topics about stuff like Mario Party thrive without dozens of comments putting the series down.

Look how far back we’ve gone in civil rights for Nintendo fans.

Dude, further down that page

Yeah sounds like that might be the problem unfortunately, I believe you need NAT type A or B for most games. This might be one of those games. Last year with my previous IP I had the same issue, and used my phone's 4G as a hotspot which had NAT type B. It's not convenient but if you have an unlimited plan or a lot of GB per month, it will get the job done. I never had connection issues that way honestly, it will depend on how good your plan is.

There's other testing you can do with your router configuration as well to potentially solve the issue, but it's a bit tricky and won't guarantee you results.

Fucking nintendies.

This is why you shouldn't advocate for more government control of the internet or forcing online users to use their real identity while online. It fucking sucks having to deal with racist and sexist trolls constantly online, but even as a black man, I'd rather deal with that than have fascist right-wing governments control online discourse.

How the fuck is psychological harm defined?

If you have to ask, seems to me you havent experienced it. There are some sickos out there.

On another MMO videogame community [ed: MOBA Network owned?] I had a staff member threaten me with murder in a vividly detailed described way (I mean it, made them sound as if they had done that before). That itself was already enough, but it didnt have consequences for that persons position as a staff member. They didnt take him off the moderation team or anything, they wrote a half hearted apology and that was it. The entire team was fine with it.

A few month later (2-3) they announced that they'd quit the team for other reasons. Afterwards there was a huge shitstorm within the community. Everyone blamed me, because it was my fault that they had written a murder threat to a, at that time ~18 year old young woman. People would harrass me ingame, ignore me, call me slurs and/or names. It was a huge thing. I was not welcome anywhere. I had like 1-3 friends left that'd still hang out with me, but they were treated the same cuz of it.

As a woman you are already paranoid in dark streets as it is, you dont need some fuck head to make it even more of a nightmare.

I would have loved for this to have a direct impact on said person (real) life/career.

Should go after the companies that make money from it. The quickest way to stop it is to make it no longer profitable.

Censorship is a concern, clearly. We have had many cases of cyber bullying that drove people into suicide. There must be possibilities for consequences in cases like these. I am not saying all this is perfect, but we must find a betrer way to handle it.

As the wording goes, wouldnt even instagram qualify for a shut down? Is has been proven it does cause psychological harm.

Saying “well i dont see you coming up with an alternative!” might be the shittiest form of argument on the internet

Saying victims of cyber bullying shouldn't have means to defend seems more shitty to me.

Regulating online hate speech is a good thing.

Should be used to action people like Rowling and other TERFs with a proven connection between the hate she outputs and the affect it has on people. As others have said though, it'll be used on trans people and allies calling them out for their shit because they had to endure scrolling a little faster during their Wednesday afternoon wine session.

Meanwhile in PollingERA:

Yeah; it's called the results. Maybe you've heard of them? Tells you who voted for whom based upon race, age, religion, gender, etc. The results will tell you more than the polls could ever hope to do.

The results don't tell you any of that because we have secret ballots, the exit polls do.

[Nintex]

Is the polling average trend looking horrible for McAuliffe? Absolutely. Can McAuliffe potentially win anyway, despite that? Yes, he can. Will that happen? I have no idea. Either candidate has a decent chance of winning. That's all.

Youngkin is doing a fantastic job as a big league winner we call him winkin. Because he wins so big just like we did and we put him over the top.

Although I endorsed him because Kevin begged me to do it. Grandstanding Glitter Glenn is a complete and total loser and couldn't have beaten the perverts even if there was no fraud.

I’m talking about an Of Montreal song, Bunny Ain’t No Kind Of Rider. The album (Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?) is legit in my top 20 of all time, maybe top 10.

The line is

Eva, I’m sorry,
but you will never have me
To me you’re just some f*ggy girl
and I need a lover with soul power
And you ain’t got no soul power

Kevin Barnes is the singer/songwriter, and they identify as bisexual, non-binary, and genderqueer.

Any thoughts? I adore this person and everything they have created. This album came out in 2007 and things have changed since then, but even in 2007 I certainly wasn’t using “gay” or “f*g” as an insult. But I have to admit I didn’t have a problem with this at the time because of who was singing it. Kevin’s sexuality and gender were intentionally vague at the time, but regularly alluded to as being fluid.


(I realize this whole thread could be about Kevin’s alter ego, Georgie Fruit, but Kevin has apologized for this, and I think everyone can agree it was offensive. And this isn’t a Georgie song anyway.)

Yea, it’s absolutely a great song and album. I kinda wondered if Kevin would revisit any other lyrics after removing “She-male” from Skeletal Lamping. They use “r*tard” in another song and that’s still a bit shocking.

On the other hand I don’t know that self-censoring your decade old lyrics is the way to go. I don’t love it, but that seems like a cop out that absolves you of responsibility long after your songs are out of the public consciousness.

Time to cancel!

Barnes performs as many different alter egos or personas, once including a glam rock alter ego, Georgie Fruit, first mentioned in "The Past Is a Grotesque Animal." They described Georgie Fruit as a black man in his forties who has undergone multiple sex changes, and this is likely the persona they retroactively described as "very problematic" in 2020.

I am the guy who made the thread about having to do a bunch of essays in a very short time to get from second year university into third, which I did, hooray.

Now my term started on the 23rd September and so far I have attended zero classes. This semester is 12 weeks, so its 5 weeks of classes so far. All my lectures and reading material are online now, so I am doing my best to keep up online, though not well tbh. My mental health isn’t great, my mum has been really sick and still is, and I’ve been finding it next to impossible to motivate myself to do university work. I have 3 modules this semester, and so far only one of the class tutors has been emailing me about my non attendance, which is my special subject.

Basically, i don’t know what the fuck to do, i feel exhausted even though I’ve done very very little work on it. I have no social contacts on campus at all, i haven’t made any friends or even people i know. I have Asperger’s which makes social stuff difficult anyway, and honestly lockdown made it much much worse. It’s a long commute as well, more than an hour, and i find it difficult to even think about. I fucking dread the idea of going anywhere near the campus.

So anyway, I could use some advice on what to do. I know in theory i should take a break from uni for now, but i don’t want to. For financial reasons, and the fact I’m 28 years old, nearly 29, and I feel like a big stupid idiot who took so long to get to university and can’t handle 3 classes a week like a fucking idiot. I’m considering asking to do online classes, but i suppose i want to know, am I too late to pull it back for my work? I didn’t feel like i did, but now i can’t decide, i just feel shit about it.

I'm so tired of starting fights with a professor.

They're nearly 30 approaching 50!

It's right next to the sugar, and the "maple" syrups.


Also dumbass OP doesn't know how to make simple syrup.

This is not really the case for sugar as sugar hates being a non-solid and you have to essentially very carefully trick it into not being a solid and even then, it will be somewhat of a solid.

Solutions, how they do work? holy shit, this is making me mad for some reason.

See... for me its been salt. I have noticed the more I start cooking that without any salt I often dont enjoy the taste of stuff. And I have started expanding my seasoning approached big time to try and find ways to use less salt.

edit: Butter is another one. But to a lesser degree.

Ree getting up on their high pony about Musk is hilarious considering how many times they have freaked out when some homeless has asked them for spare change

Fictional character definitely does have greater-than-or-equal-to friends as OP

Incelchief jealous of a comic book character having friends.

 

Especially when you realize said character is one of the worst in the X-Men "universe"  Like literally Jubilee (90s rave reject) and Dazzler (70s disco reject) are cooler.

S1 User Banned (1 Month): Excusing Racism

I apologize if this has been answered but why is the Atlanta team racist? Did i miss something?

Southern accents and the Tomahawk Chop.

(they aren't racist, but you know. Internet.).

"S1" some kind of internal code for the type of ban?

If your charity is conditional, it isn't charity

Can't help but feel there's some kind of "I'll help you with your tuition fees as long as you're spending it on tuition and not fucking comic books" backstory here

To be fair, his charity to cerium appears to be unconditional.

I literally don't even know where to buy corn syrup in my country, let alone consider it a kitchen staple

It's right next to the sugar, and the "maple" syrups.


Also dumbass OP doesn't know how to make simple syrup.

This is not really the case for sugar as sugar hates being a non-solid and you have to essentially very carefully trick it into not being a solid and even then, it will be somewhat of a solid.

Solutions, how they do work? holy shit, this is making me mad for some reason.

See... for me its been salt. I have noticed the more I start cooking that without any salt I often dont enjoy the taste of stuff. And I have started expanding my seasoning approached big time to try and find ways to use less salt.

edit: Butter is another one. But to a lesser degree.

I refuse to believe anyone other than a 6 year old child who has never cooked or prepared their own food would write this.  How can the fact that salt is basically required in food be a revelation to anyone over that age??

User Warned: Antagonism

If you want to experience it as close to the original vision as possible, Japanese voice overs with English subtitles is as good as it gets.

If you are an illiterate manchild, watching the English dub is an option that's open to you.

  Slayven watches dubs confirmed.

Sorry... either I got Venus Sickness, or my eyes rolled right out of their sockets.

At least if she finds out, she won't hold a grudge.
