Box Office shit is boring af, do the corporations even comment on the sales?
That was the best bit about GAF-era NPD sales.

You would get these atrocious numbers for overhyped shit and somewhere a PR mouthpiece would find a way to spin some 'momentum' or 'milestone'  in the turd sandwich.

You had Force Awakens opening weekend numbers which were fun to follow and then Endgame in 2019 but it’s definitely boring otherwise. Marvel movies are going to open big again with things being as normal as they’ve been in the last two years and then you get the occasional smaller movie that’s going to surprise. Rinse and repeat.

As various outlets have reported, the Netflix Culture memo includes a new section called "Artistic Expression," which declares the streamer will not "censor specific artists or voices" even if employees consider the content "harmful."

Quote
Ridiculous framing here to try to equate "censor[ing] specific artists or voices" with not voluntarily entering into business relationships to pay for "harmful" content.

A wave of resignations is like a fucking golden ticket for a company with financial issues  : :lol

You get all the cost savings of a wave of layoffs, but none of the bad press or associated legal risks of people claiming unfair dismissal, and let's be honest about the kind of people who are gonna claim ulterior motives for getting fired are also likely the same kind of people who think they can walk uninvited into an executive meeting and make demands

As an aside I kinda expect the big streaming services to fluctuate from now on going by the big content they supply. 'If there's nothing on Netflix I wanna watch I'll do a couple of months of Disney instead' type shit.

I suspect the next move is trying to get out of the month to month subs and try claiming you have a 12 month contract with them by signing up.

Oh man the arguments.

NPD would release on like thursday(?) and then a big game had dropped like a day or two before.

"It didn't get a week of sales!! It'll chart next week! It was on the Amazon Best Sellers list. NPD doesn't track digital these numbers don't count!"  :lol

Why is this shit even allowed at RE?

Chances are, they were going to have to do a large round of redundancies anyway with their shrinking revenue base, so a bunch of people quitting will save them money in the long run. They also get rid of the least productive and most costly employees.

The full video of the shooting has been posted.

Just giving you all a warning, it's probably gonna spread like wildfire now.

I'd recommend staying off of Twitter & Reddit for a little while.

Edit: Removed mention of where the video was posted. My bad

This has to be a troll. Basically advertising the video while saying, "Oh no, don't watch it!".

The terrorist was also an animal abuser.

He bragged on discord about stabbing a stray kitten that got stuck in his garage and slamming it's head onto concrete. He then posted a video on discord of him decapitating it with an axe.

There are images of the mutilated cat floating around on Twitter, be careful.

If I said how I felt about all this I'd probably get banned for calling for extreme violence, so I'm gonna hold my tongue.

Same guy. Clearly loves his snuff films

They seem to truly believe that bad people only exist because they hear bad ideas. If you stop people from saying the gamer word or dogwhistles then people will stop being racist.

So the only reason anyone would object is because they want a fascist takeover due to too much freedom and democracy.

It's all so simple and reasonable that every problem has the same solution. Only a highly informed intellectual like a ResetERA.com member could recognize this.

Well that's curious. They banned a guy who called out that completely generalizing white people might be a bad idea but then they also decided to lock the thread about a story that's still very present in the news cycle.

Honestly reactions to mass shootings have become kind of fucked. As much as RE hates "both sides" it feels true when the left and right always adjust their reactions depending on what the skin color of the last asshole was.

Hi y'all, I try not to do this but is this thread going to be re-opened? https://www.resetera.com/threads/10-dead-3-wounded-in-mass-shooting-event-in-buffalo-ny-self-identified-white-supremacist-suspect-in-custody.583592/

It feels like it got locked after the discussion on the racism inherent in white america heated up, there are probably a lot of members who have to live this stuff that have some important things to say on that front and it would be great to have a space where they can share their feelings and perspectives. That was also the main thread on a mass shooting that just happened yesterday that is a pretty big story right now so it seems like it should have some representation here. I'm not sure what constitutes a derail as the general conversation was still examining issues that contributed to this and other shootings.

I'm just not sure why this would be locked with the message not saying it would be re-opened after a period of time with such a big story as opposed to using moderator action against any bad-faith actors in the thread, or like can another thread be created for discussion or would that be closed as well?

Anyways thank you for reading and your efforts for the community!

Yo, why was this thread closed? Because it got off topic? Because it derailed? It’s a really important thread. Especially for some of our Black Era members such as myself. A racist lunatic murders a bunch of Black people but we can’t discuss it? Why?

Shouldn’t the proper response given that context be for moderation to be applied via warnings for off topic posts and a thread mark instructing all participants to keep the discussion on topic?

There’s little insight into the decision making process for closing that thread. Will members get banned and have the thread closed immediately if they recreate it? No clue. That’s the problem. I think this is an area of the site that should be improved.

people failing to understand that the litmus test for threads on Era is basically "do mods think it will be more annoying to moderate than fun to browbeat people in"

“Important things to say” we’ve already seen what they have to say on the topic and while plenty of it is more than justified, just as much is just a few words away from essentially saying kill all white people. Nep Nep already says it (as a fucking moderator) and gets away with it. Pretty sure the site wants that evidence buried as much as possible before the one day inevitable FBI search of the site after one of the loonies commits a real world atrocity.

Dear God, how many more years will this go on?

OK so I need some advice and I don't want to be so narcissistic as to make a new thread about it: Basically, I want to move out of my current situation but I have no idea how I'm supposed to do that.

Quote
  I want to lose weight, but with my Mum making dinners for 8pm most nights - and making dinners for 4 people at that (my portion control is abysmal) - it's almost impossible to do so without something drastic like One Meal a Day

Quote
Outside of that the fact that I live in a relatively small town filled with nothing but older Boomers/Gen X people and schoolkids makes me feel out-of-place almost all the time. It's very rare that I see someone my own age, and even rarer that I see someone my own age who I'd realistically want to be friends with

Quote
Why would I willingly go from about £100/m for 'Everything', living in a relatively large (though still small) house with a nice garden... to spending over £1,000/m for the bare essentials, whilst living in a shitty, mouldy flat with no outside space? Sure I could move out but, I mean, would I be able to actually do anything when I do? I'd be trading one of my easiest living situations practically for one of the hardest, and there's no signs that anything is ever going to get easier.

I’d have a UFC bod but mum keeps making my dinners.

I’d be a Hilton socialite but who’d want to be friends with those people.

I could move out but the only available house in the entire country is a shitty, mouldy flat.

I could be independent but it’s hard.

Great look for the progressive forum to have everyone who supports "women rights" (by staff edict) posting "abortion" instead of "support the mother." (While multiple former moderators instead complain that the thread's premise isn't inclusive enough of women posters.)

Also:

In all seriousness, in the event she didn't have an abortion, likely suicide.

I was deathly afraid of the idea of having children for a long time. I still under no circumstances ever want kids, but I'm at least in a better place so that I wouldn't consider killing myself over it.
Quote
Yep. Abortion is her call, and I'd wait until it was born to be sure, but no way would I have handled that. I don't want kids ever, so I would've taken my own life for sure.
Quote
It's different for people who do want to be parents for sure. I personally never do, so a kid would be a life-changing thing and not in a good way for me.

Also also boomers posting:

Love when the site just turns into more of a shitshow than usual when it's two minority groups clashing and nobody knows which side to take without getting banned.

User banned (2 weeks): continuing thread derail, a long history of prior infractions

Quote
Making lists are fun. Dems tried to codify and it failed thanks to the fact that there are bad actors. Saying Biden has control of the Senate is almost laughable.
Quote
It‘s so simple. Yet people are willing to actively vote against their interests, and even to vote for an enemy who will try to make their lives more miserable, in order to make a statement.
"Democrats can‘t get shit done, I‘m so sick of them, so let me vote for the other guys!“

Hence this photo (sorry that I can't make it smaller):

(Image removed from quote.)

I used to think most Democrats in Congress cared about me too, & I've been voting for 22 years. What's the point of voting for any Democrat when this happens? You're throwing away your vote, anyway. They just keep taking our votes for granted. "Vote Blue No Matter Who?" Bullshit.

User Banned (Permanent): Dismissing concerns around women's rights; prior severe ban for dismissing minority issues and workplace abuse

The stakes are pretty high for both sides of the abortion debate. I'm pro-abortion, but I also don't see how this is an issue that's worth coercively reinforcing the "correct" opinion on in a workplace. If you take even a fraction of the anti-abortion side at their word, that's millions that believe fetal life is human life worth protecting. Some of these people work at PlayStation, and every mid- or large-size gaming company. There's no consistent and respectable way you can shut up these people while expecting your "right" to express your sincerely held beliefs in other contexts be upheld.

Ryan should've just said nothing probably, but beyond the weird pet shit, the main idea of the statement is fine.

Prior severe ban:
User Banned (3 Months): Dismissing and antagonising minority members and perspectives in regards to bigotry.

Quote from: astro
You keep avoiding the point I'm trying to raise here... I'm not sure if you agree with it or disagree at this point.

Do you stand by your "pathetic" comment? Honestly asking.
The reason I'm avoiding the point is because I can try to illustrate my thinking but if I directly try to answer your question it'll come off as virtue signaling.

I stand by my pathetic comment in the context of a narrow subset of people, more narrow than my original comment implied: people that shirk the responsibility of engaging with bigots because they're sick of doing it (fine on its own), but then ALSO run in the other direction of calling bigots out with vitriol are pathetic. Why? Because it reveals you were either disingenuous about acknowledging the validity of the science in the first place or more concerned with getting a short-term emotional catharsis of calling someone out then letting the white liberals talking to the racists play out and produce better outcomes.

I think that both those scenarios rise to the level of pathetic. But not all that come out and so no thanks, I'm not interested are pathetic.

Quote from: Nepenthe
And yet you decided to attack the thread.
I don't think the thread is above reproach because I'm not directly affected. This is an ad hominem.

Is it really the culture of hip hop now to still have songs with people saying feg? I don't think I've heard it much if at all in stuff from say 2010 onwards :thinking

Please just make it a frontpage issue? It's no less of a crisis than the Russian war of aggression to Ukraine.
Yes, people in Ukraine are losing their lives RIGHT now.
But you (as in the USA) are walking towards a path that will only lose lives. No life will be saved.

Probably could have made your case without saying that this is the same as literal war

I mean how much is an actual “ erosion “ and just we never had them beside lip service?

Ask minorities about “human rights” and how they’ve enjoyed them for the last century or 100

Holy shit, asshole. At least now we are considered human and don’t need the Catholic Church discussing if the brown creatures at the new world have souls.

I would have gotten an abortion, no question. I would have gotten one regardless of age. Just got sterilized a month and a half ago and thankfully don't have to worry about that sort of thing anymore.
