Meanwhile on Gaf -


Quote
People in Europe are working their damn asses off and can't make ends meet, and aren't having children because they can't afford to. Immigrants from North Africa and west Asia very often fail to integrate, live off of welfare, and have half a dozen children. A slow but steady population replacement is clearly happening in Europe, and everyone is looking away and/or pretending it's a lie, but it's not. European leaders are letting our western"Leitkultur" get pushed aside more and more because we don't want to offend anyone and want to be inclusive etc. Like, how many businesses don't put up a Christmas tree anymore because some muslim dude might feel offended? Just fuck off with that shit, man.

I'm starting to feel a bit sorry for Lore.

Yeah at the end of the day I’ll take Era’s obnoxious progressive hate over the pretty frankly scary disgusting stuff on GAF.

If there's room for Transformers under good then there's room for The Legend of Korra.

Quote from: Mifec, post: 85300312, member: 1435
Fuck no. People actually loved Transformers and were pleasantly surprised. No one thought the same for Korra.

Quote from: Liam Allen-Miller, post: 85301872, member: 29785
Plenty of people enjoyed Korra and it’s absurd to suggest that ”no one” did. Obviously it’s not their greatest title but I don’t know why you need to swear at a fellow user in some attempt to hammer down people liking a video game.

Quote from: Mifec, post: 85303072, member: 1435
It was an absurd statement to prove a point. I know that it's statistically impossible for "no one" to have liked Korra, that doesn't diminish the fact that the reception to both games in online communities was vastly different and that Korra just is not anywhere as liked or should be put on the same pedestal as Transformers by that virtue alone. Like this isn't hard to grasp right anyone should be able to? Now if you disagree with that then I can't help nor do I want to waste my time with your pathological need to try and defend even the worst of games, which is most of what I see when I see you post.

What I do want to address however is you trying to frame my post as "swearing at" or "hammering down people".  Fuck no is just me reacting to what I perceived as an absurd statement. Saying that vast amount of people prefer Transformer to Korra right after doesn't mean I was hammering down people who enjoy Korra. Go enjoy what you want but don't twist around reality because you like something.

Now for the last thing. The fact that you tried to so disgustingly misinterpret my post is truly some heinous shit. You my friend respectfully of course are truly and undeniably, unequivocally a horrible person for it. Enjoy the rest of your day knowing this fact.

Kyuuji kept trying to ban bait people in that box office thread, capped off with that “look at all of you not letting us get in cathartic jabs without saying something about it” whiny ass post. No one really took the bait  :lol

Also, the movie didn’t do well because it just didn’t look that interesting, not because of your invented boogeyman Rowling.

I bought flowers from a local florist in her area in cali(I live in AZ) and a cute stuffed animal from amazon, they both are set to be delivered today. I knew this girl since high school and she moved to cali a couple of months ago. we talk sometimes still but I miss her and wanna show her I like her...

would you send a nice good morning text and tell her to look out for the mail today? or just wait it out and wait till I get a text to surprise her completely? I kind of wanna tell her so she can try to get them before she goes to work late afternoon. But also wanna surprise her where she has no idea its coming.

this is the stuffed animal I got her :)

I was heading up to work on a stop light. Guy on a motorcycle kept giving me the finger at a stop light. I give one back to him and he pulled his pistol and pointed at me and made a right turn and drove off. Don't know what I did for him to give me the finger. Couldn’t make out his license plate. :/

Sorry I’m a little shocked up what happened to me. Have something similar happened to anyone here? Can’t wait until I move out of this city.

Quote
"It is a brand-new way of human exploration where our human entity is able to travel off the planet," Schmid said in a statement. "Our physical body is not there, but our human entity absolutely is there."

Basically, high-quality 3D models of the holoporters were developed, digitally compressed, transmitted and reconstructed in the spaceborne lab -- all in real time.

Meanwhile, a mixed reality display aboard the ISS, namely Microsoft's HoloLens, allowed both the holoporters and astronauts to see, hear and interact with one another as though they were in the same physical space. Astronaut Thomas Pesquet, for instance, had a two-way conversation with Schmid and De La Pena right in the middle of the ISS despite being miles upon miles away from the holoporters.

The takeaway?

That one. Hence why it's a really bad idea to say "everyone should be forced to display their face and real name."

I get most of the people saying this just aren't thinking through all the implications, which is all the more reason to point it out.

Yeah I wonder why people on Era are terrified of having to do that. Can’t fathom why. Could it be all the psychotic posts? No, can’t be that. Could it be seeing some of you would shatter the internet tough guy personas? No can’t be that either.  :thinking

I’m naive, but take 80% of era and gaf users, join them, and it’ll be a reasonable forum talking dorky hobbies. Or simpler to get rid of the 20% of era and bring those 16 gaf users there.

Replace the moderators with actual humans and Resetera/Neogaf would be fun. Letting mentally unstable unemployed shut-ins who spend 90% of their time on a video game forum moderate the community is where both of those places have gone wrong.

The difference is in the actions of each. Unless this guy commits war crimes or terrorizes civilians there's a huge difference.

after my texts they sent a long email whining that all their friends are vaccinated and they still let them see them.

My wife wanted to respond as a team but then we never did, so they sent me a passive agressive text "so our email doesnt merit a response"

so i just went ahead and responded:

"We are not the Smiths or any of your other friends. What they are willing to risk is none of our concern.

vaccinated people are less likely to get covid19 and less likely to spread it. should they get a breakthrough case Vaccinated who get breakthrough infections less contagious – Harvard Gazette
see also this chart from NY during the omicron wave Charts: Vaccines Protected New Yorkers From Omicron Variant (businessinsider.com)
They're also less likely to develop long covid if they get a breakthrough case Vaccination Reduces Chance of Getting Long COVID, Studies Say (webmd.com) have you read anything about long covid? Its not something you want.
While all immunity wanes with time, immunity from having the virus wanes faster than vaccines.
Additionally having covid and getting vaccinated remains the best immunity you can have COVID Natural Immunity: What You Need to Know | Johns Hopkins Medicine
Vaccines Plus Prior Infection Provided Best Protection From COVID: Study (webmd.com)

we have told you repeatedly in the clearest terms possible that we're not fucking around with this. our answer is not changing, and will not change. Get vaccinated."



its wild to me that apparently everyone they know, except for probably my brother and his family, are vaccinated and they're still like, nah we're good.

That's cool and all bro, but the threat is more to them, not you, as all your links/sources explain if you bothered to read them. The probability that they bring you COVID compared to the thousands of other guests is so small as to be imperceptible. You're making the argument that them evaluating their own personal risk in a manner not maximally beneficial to themselves is somehow a threat to you and yours. (I'm especially not sure what them getting Havana Syndrome or Morgellons from being unvaccinated has to do with any of this but you decided it was a top three important point.)

I presume the thread will be locked and the user banned for spreading medical and scientific misinformation during a pandemic during a Russian invasion of a sovereign nation.

Quote from: Darkstorne
Quote from: SuperBanana
It won't ever go. We need to focus on making it more efficient or move to lab grown beef.
It will when the older generations who think "my tastebuds are more important than a habitable planet for future generations" start dying off.

Meat eating is quickly becoming the future's homophobia. It used to be illegal to be gay, and now we have a generation of pensioners who often still struggle to come to terms with accepting LGBTQI+ issues, because for the majority of their lives they were told it was both a sin and a criminal activity. Speak to enough young people and you'll see the tidal surge coming for veganism, with a future where meat eating is considered as abhorrent as homophobia is today.

Quitting red meat is a triple win. Better for the planet, better for your health, and better for your wallet. There is no good defence for meat eating today. I know it's still a bit taboo, and a lot of people still hate being told meat eating is a problem, but put any level of rational thought into it (for first world countries at least) and it's blatantly obvious that choosing to eat meat like beef today is just kind of a dick move.

shit on me, but that's a completely fair reasoning.  In the future, we'll wonder how we ever rationalized supporting the conditions of factory farms, just like it's abhorrent to us today that homosexuality was criminalized.

I know it may be difficult to fathom but whether or not the planet will be habitable for the rest of the century is unlikely to come down to whether or not the entire human population immediately subscribes to your personal moral or dietary choices that are shared with only 0.1% of the global and 0.5% of the national population.

Plus this is the quickest way to kill off the yts who don't wash the toxins and gravel out of their meat before eating it.

In a way yes. Opposite ends of the spectrum. Other side of the coin.

But Era just annoys me. Gaf disgusts me.

I mean they're the same people. They went from Gaf to Ree, got banned, went back to Gaf. The only difference being instead of ranting about Nazis and transphobes, they're ranting about immigrants and wokes. Obviously there's going to be a lot of normal ree exiles who got unfair bans and went back to Gaf just to post about video games or whatever. Still, I'd put good money down the posters like that idiot screeching about Xmas trees were on Ree screeching about pronouns.

Too much Chris Pratt. Otherwise, fun trailer.

if you're wondering how much Chris Pratt is too much Chris Pratt, the answer is "any amount of Chris Pratt"

Ironically, this is more commonly known as the 'Planetsmasher rule', not because he invented it but for how many people hold this view about him

How are we to square the hatred of Chris Pratt, a prominent MCU veteran, for not abandoning his religion with the extremely recent kerfuffle about the ResetERA.com staff's horrific Islamophobia including a request by a member that people saying "religion sucks" not be allowed which the staff indicated they would take under advisement for some of their ceaseless meetings?

On today’s Joanne watch. Ree decides Hermione was black or Asian or something, whatever, whitewashing was somehow definitely involved because that’s just how Jo Jo rolls

Quote
i am just saying that Joanne put herself in such a corner that the iconic hermione casting is now whitewashing.

Quote
Doesn't mean she couldn't be Asian though, but again, J.K. Rowling is not at all good at subtlety.)

Quote
Joanne's word is that she was ALWAYS black.

So she was just defending the race blind casting of the stage play and that Hermione's skin color never played a role anyway. This is the very kind of thing they usually love whenever a characters skin color is changed but now it's bad cause Joanne

I don't actually see anything wrong with this

a normal person will just react with confusion or ignore it, not understanding that you're referring to them

if the student's work suffers because they can't get the professor to respond, that's on them for being a poor communicator

if the prof's name is jim smith, it's not his fault if an indignant student insists on trying to email samantha.smith@college.edu
