Islam? :thinking

I see Morrigan hasn't changed her views on Islam :lol She use to be pretty vocal and open about her feelings on Islam before GAF's implosion. She wisely kept that contempt to herself when the zeitgeist of the board made being openly critical of Islam untenable and perma ban worthy.

May i say "God pless piracy for keeping it available then" or is it bannable to say?
If it is bannable, i will not condone it. I'm just asking, is all. obviously.

Lock if old. This is the first time I've ever seen this happening with something already out there.

I remember Sym-Bionic Titan was a tax write-off. It is possible to undo that, but it would take someone like Jason Demarco on the inside advocating for it tirelessly (and years of time).

IGPX (meh) and Megas XLR (yooooo!!) were also both Warner Bros. tax write-offs.



But this new wave is #UNPRECEDENTED, apparently.

Now I wonder if cutting the D&D episode from community affected the residuals of that guy who played "Fat Neil". I don't think he had many (speaking) appearances besides that one.

He had a couple but not many, less than 5 I think.

By the way, they left the episode in where Pierce is pretending to be a Persian and seems to have a fake tan.



Either because other races don't matter, or because this episode is necessary for continuity lol.

Whatever change that is to come, must happen from within and Iranian Regime will be a part of it. You cant just topple a government and not expect a civil war ESPECIALLY in a country like Iran with military backing it's Supreme Council, plus all the different feared paramilitary units it has. Iranian government still enjoys support outside urban centers, and it will be easy for the regime to rile that population segment. It's like we've learned nothing.
So RustyNails actually doesn't know anything about the Islamic Revolution in Iran that he's caping so hard for?

The Revolution toppled the Iranian government and no civil war resulted. The military looked the other way rather than back the Shah. No civil war resulted even after the Revolution turned on and suppressed all its allies to seize absolute power and never delivered the promised democracy instead turning the whole thing into the ISLAMIC Revolution. This didn't happen over time due to America/Israel ostracizing it either, it happened like immediately!

I don't need someone with zero knowledge of life in Iran, who happens to sympathize with a regime just because it has the word "Islamic" in its name, to tell me how we should proceed. The regime has shown countless times that it refuses to back off an inch on any societal or political change because it sees itself falling apart like a domino after the slightest perceived retreat. So no, so long as this regime holds the power no change is possible

In the "elections" they banned everyone that wasn't a religious fundamentalist too. So how can you reason with people like this?

It's the US' fault for ostracizing these repressive, theocratic, governments but also if you level *any* criticism whatsoever against this religion in the same way you can criticize any other religion because there's no low expectations for the logical faculties and behavior of their adherents, we'll deem you Islamophobic aka racist aka having a complete disregard for Islam.  Contemplate that on the tree of woe, and have a nice day.

Imagine calling yourself a progressive and caping for "elections" where the government can strike anyone off the ballot even if they meet all the requirements and the government just gets leery about you. They knocked that one previously allowed Islamic dude off the ballot because his campaign for teeny tiny reforms was gaining too much popular traction. :lol

And these elections are for positions that don't even really mean anything because all power is concentrated into an unelected "religious" body anyway.

Pizza delivery guy on the road had his phone in a stand on the dash and he was watching shit while driving. One of the dumbest things I've seen in a while.

Debating whether to call the pizza place and report it. Honestly if they does this stuff on the clock I'm sure they do it all the time, so I don't know what practical purpose narcing him out would serve. I could have just as easily seen the same thing in a car not marked for pizza delivery.

On the other hand, him getting into trouble at work might cause him to see the error of his ways and straighten out and fly right. Hmm.

What would modern day Black people (I'm assuming they don't actually mean all non-white people should be able to write about it) inherently know about writing about slavery? Are they saying they think the knowledge of slavery is embedded in their genes? What if they're like Barack Obama and have no ancestors in American chattel slavery?

Who would they recommend Americans go to for discussions about politics? YouTubers? Politicians? Journalists? Political scientists?

Do they really think people watch comedians to "get informed" and not to be entertained? Many comedians are sociocultural commentators so those kinds of topics will just come up, but it's a niche class that goes to them for information purposes. People watch Tucker for the same reason, it's a show, it just happens that they feel informed by it because our modern society has a very shallow notion about what it takes to be informed on a topic. (See how effortlessly everyone on Twitter/ResetERA.com talks immediately as they've always known about the latest topic ala viruses or vaccines or Ukraine or making financial decisions for international conglomerates or judging the true nature of reality based on the first reports about a potential criminal chaotic event...)

 :lol  Thread is amazing.  Crossing Eden is the one who thought mario 1 was political because there is a king.  Media literacy is not her thing.  What a choad.

Day's Gone promotes, supports, and defends slavery.  Amazing resetera.


Also, if it supports slavery why wasn't it better received?  Don't gamers like that?

mario 1 is political because it reinforces man's tendency to tread on and destroy anything in his path in pursuit of money and sexual desires

we believe ourselves to have mastery over nature, and care nothing for living organisms we deem beneath us, such as turtles and fungi

additionally, we are all-too-eager to exploit any natural resources we find that can enhance our power, even in subtle ways, when we could've just as easily left well enough alone

in a way, the rich among us have already gathered their 100 coins and enjoy the benefits of having extra lives in reserve, while the rest of us only have one life to live and cannot behave in such cavalier ways

Is the game spooky? Good for the spooky season?
The characters aren't scared of the zombies due to familiarity and that's definitely reflected in the gameplay. The "freakers" as they call them aren't very intimidating at all. And yea the characters casually calling them "freakers" without a hint of irony definitely contributes to that.

Please go into what you think "irony" means.  Please, please, please.

It's ok to not like a game without creating a political reason for it.

Crossing Eden is the one who thought mario 1 was political because there is a king.

mario 1 is political because it reinforces man's tendency to tread on and destroy anything in his path in pursuit of money and sexual desires

we believe ourselves to have mastery over nature, and care nothing for living organisms we deem beneath us, such as turtles and fungi

additionally, we are all-too-eager to exploit any natural resources we find that can enhance our power, even in subtle ways, when we could've just as easily left well enough alone

in a way, the rich among us have already gathered their 100 coins and enjoy the benefits of having extra lives in reserve, while the rest of us only have one life to live and cannot behave in such cavalier ways
:piss :mario :piss2
It gets worse, Mario always runs to the far right to progress. Miyamoto knew exactly what he was doing.

I am 50 hours into Days Gone, and all the camps require their people to contribute. I didn't think Tucker's camp was any worse than the rest. Even your brother Boozer who loses an arm is required to work on Iron Mikes farm.

Also, this is the leader of The camp in question:



Crossing Eden is distinguished mentally challenged.

From the wiki:

Quote
Before the apocalypse, Tucker was the head of the female ward at a penitentiary. She believed that everyone had to work in order to earn their keep.

Ah, i see the problem. Ree doesn't believe in earning your keep. Even in the zombie apocalypse they think they should be able to leech off of everyone else's hard work

Either because other races don't matter, or because this episode is necessary for continuity lol.

There's a literal follow up to the D&D episode that makes no sense without knowledge the first one happens :idont

There's also the fact nobody is pulling Borat, Bruno or The Dictator, where its difficult to claim Sacha Baron Cohen isn't explicitly mocking other cultures as part of the bit.

But Kazakhstan / Austria / Fictitious Stereotypical Middle Eastern Dictatorship aren't having race riots #BLM protests in Murica that US corporations feel the need to Say Something Important about

Say like you the person that comes in says does their job and leaves? You not rude or anything but the most you do is say "Hi" or "whats up". But you don't ask Barbara how her weekend went because you don't care and can't be assed to fake it. Nor do you do non mandatory work social things, you do your time and go home.

But this kinda of think can end with you being passed on permotions, or getting lower scores on performance reviews.

It's like that time that Ororo lost leadership of the Morlocks to Callisto, because she preferred to spend time in Westchester rather than with the people she was supposed to be leader of

It's also 100% my version as I purposefully made in very low-res if anyone sniped it, but good to know.

This dude absolutely loves attention. I wonder if he came out of leaker retirement because it bothered him to see Grubb getting all the attention  8)

I think a discussion about what teachers should and shouldn't be allowed to wear is an interesting one to have.

If you don't that's fine, no one is forcing you post here.

Kinda sad how hollow support for Batgirl is. There’s a clip of some movie press asking Michael Keaton about it at the Emmys. He couldn’t give less of a shit. Some footage has leaked and nobody noticed. Not helping how the handful who pretend to care spent years saying don’t be mean to corporations. Be it Sonic or JL.

Even the campaign to get the actress in a marvel movie lasted all of one afternoon. I’m reminded of the casting mix up with the Hellboy reboot. They hired Ed Skrein, a white fella, to play a Japanese character. After brief outrage, guy voluntarily stepped away and Johnny Gat got the role (Korean, close enough for them). Twitter people were hyping up Ed Skrein, including some writers and directors, saying they have his back for doing what Scarlett Johansson and others didn’t. This was in 2017. The promised support went about as well as you can expect. His biggest role since will be in, you guessed it, a Zack Snyder movie.

(trying to wrap it all up in a bow aside, Barry Jenkins had him in If Beale Street Could Talk)

If any of the Usual Cuntspects on era had bothered to actually fucking watch the Ghost In The Shell film, the fact that ScarJos own mother doesn't recognise her anymore after the extensive cosmetic and reconstructive surgery to transform her from an asian woman into ScarJo hits extra hard.

Still shows that the movie completely misses the point. In the original, her body is designed to look like a common, off-the-shelf model, same face and all. The Major looks exactly like a ton of other cyborgs, which makes sense given her line of work. That alone is a good enough excuse to cast any attractive, popular actress regardless of ethnicity, even though I think ScarJo looks a bit too distinct. And the Major is not sure she even has parents, or if she's entirely artificial like the Puppet Master, so showing her mother is stupid because it answers a question the manga deliberately leaves unanswered.

Scarlett Johansson has played a sexy alien siren from a 4th dimensional civilization, a AI voice interface who causes a man to fall in love with her, a women who develops super powers becoming an omnipresent universal computer who rules reality and also the ultimate super soldier in a world with God's, monsters, and Groot.  She's basically too beautiful to play a normal human. 

That's the Major.  A badass, sentient, neo-trans-human, cyborg.  Just say that description and ScarJo is the first one in mind.

What's this about a mother? Major having a mother?! Did GITS lvie action fuck up one of GITS' biggest themes?

He has a meltdown every couple of weeks, cries about being unappreciated, announces his “retirement” then comes back a week later with more super secret Twitter info

I like Russell, but ohmigod I hate the faux-naif thing that's inevitable when quirk meets ambition (see Gervais, R). Just be honest about it, you fuckers. Don't give us "who me?" bullshit.
Even Rickman hated Gervais.

Planetsmashers reading comprehension is as good as his understanding of comedy then.

He is saying that people who have achieved celebrity through their own talent, hard work and ambition should not be afraid to take credit for doing do, instead of feigning it as an innocent accident so as not to appear they have 'sold out' or 'betrayed their roots' or whatever, and this quote is specifically about Russell Brand.
