Ree gets a job. Immediately attempts to rip off his customers and destroy his reputation -

I am not a bartender by trade, it's just a side hustle.

So I have 2.gigs this weekend and for one of them they asked me about the included liquor for this party. I shoot them a list and while they were cool with the list, they made some request for a fewer high end brands ( Patron, Goose, Dusse, etc)

In my experience, people can not tell the difference in most mixed drinks unless you are using bottom shelf stuff. I don't carry bottom shelf unless I'm making a punch or a limoncello. However, if I need to rebuy more liquor before this gig it will hinder my margins a bit but I will.

I have a gig tomorrow night but they don't give a damn what I make them, long as it's wet.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/bartender-era-does-it-matter-if-you-use-high-end-liquor-in-mixed-drinks.637689/

Good way to find out the difference between people who have preferences in their spirits, and side hustlers out of a job.

Kyuuji went to whine to the Cyberpunk OT because people are getting uppity:

Quote from: DinoLegs
I always find it funny the amount of people who have put zero actual effort into pushing back on thread creation or advocating for limitations on threads about Blizzard, Ubisoft etc. and only raise the topic as a means to whine about Cyberpunk being restricted (which was, fundamentally, a decision based on impact to the community here as opposed to any distinct severity of issue with CDPR, at a time where it was being hype-manned continuously by an unabashed Trump supporter).

Almost like it's more about wanting a new Cyberpunk thread in the main listing than any actual concern for the issues, which would be better presented on their own merits to staff members but no one is actually bothered enough to push for that case in earnest.

Spare me the 'wahh people are so unfair to CDPR' bullshit as well. Threads about the company and The Witcher are fine and have been active for ages now.

“Is like the game had no transphobic issues and we, at TransRE, blowed up of proportion because we are scumbags that want attention and feed on our own victim complex.”

Random RE mod (tankie mod from the dead socialist community) just warned everyone to not bitch about the forum decisions.

Won't happen. Even after CDPR fired an insensitive staff member, apologized for some admittedly stupid insensitive comments and donated a large amount and continues to donate a large amount of money to affected communities, this will never happen. This forum found it's brand new scratching post in CDPR and they will now always be their scratching post for when the need arises. People need enemies to justify their cause and to keep the momentum up, this rule will never, ever be dropped.

[Before we begin this OT, I should make note that Bette Midler stars in this movie. Because of recent comments made back in July, it is understandable that you may not want to watch this movie due to her involvement. I was originally going to link to an ERA thread for more info, however it was locked due to a non-approved ERA source. I'm just going to direct you to google her comments, and others are free to mention her comments as well here.

Regardless, Trans Rights are Human Rights.]

IIRC after he'd been temp banned for saying on a Discord that he was being forced to include Kyuntujis screed - WHICH WAS 100% UNTRUE! NOBODY MADE HIM! HE COULD ALWAYS JUST FUCK OFF AND NOT MAKE A THREAD FOR A GAME HE WAS SUPERHYPED FOR! MISREPRESENTING MODERATOR CUNTISHNESS! - after jumping through every single distinguished mentally-challenged fucking hoop they made him go through to make the OT as shitty as possible, they trawled through his twitter and found a sarcastic "guess I'll vote trump then" to make his ban permanent and 'prove' how widespread the heresy was

The phobic algorithm showed me this tweet from Joanne and it’s relevant to the cyberpunk discourse. In lieu of any evidence, there’s “trust me or you’re pro genocide.”

Somehow "lets please keep calling women women" is now the absolute height of transphobia. And the biggest irony is that the people who are so adamant about calling women "vagina owners" are the very same who will never fail to admonish others about the importance of identity and how it's absolutely crucial how you need to use the right expression, pronoun etc.

I can see the conversation:

"vagina haver is not about what you'd prefer to be called, it's a statement of bodily fact"

"yeah?  it's totally cool if I call a trans person a Y chromosome haver then?"

I already know I'll never be able to remember is calling a woman a "vagina haver," is a good thing for trans people or a bad thing.  When it came to Net Neutrality I knew which side of the issue I was on but didn't know if I was pro or anti given the phrasing.  Like when Bush would make "clean water," laws that let you dump 5% more mercury.

it's supposedly a good thing for trans people

because then you can use the word "woman" to refer to anyone who wants to be called a woman, but use "vagina haver" when you're addressing the concerns specific to the subset of the population who actually menstruate or suffer from cervical/ovarian cancer

you don't talk about "women's greatest cancer risks" because some women don't have to worry about most of those and have to worry about prostate cancer instead

On the podcast in which he talks about this, the topic of whether or not racism played a part in PoC actors being cut from Olivia Wilde's Don't Worry Darling comes up and he, without hesitation, laughs it off and mocks the idea.

I'm sure ZeoVGM has seen the movie and his opinion is more valid than the guy laughing at a laughable premise.  The guy says, "lets listen to what the black actor says."  ZeoVGM calls that bigotry.

This is depressing to hear but not entirely surprising. This sort of thing seems baked into internet culture. I've seen it manifest in different ways in just about every community I've ever really taken a part in.
It's just called culture. This is naturally human, people like to gossip dude. What do you think popular entertainment was before the increase of literacy and democratization of technology that is super modern?

I find it ironic that the chuds on TheBoreHateSiteDotCom highlight ree’s antics for entertainment purposes. While the progressives use discord to target and harass them.
Yes, strange how one group does it all publicly where everyone can see and object and also publicly debates things among themselves. While another group operates in private to align their stories, make sure nobody deviates from doctrine and the targets aren't provided the grounds of an equal defense. Very odd.

How has Fox News not been removed from the air yet in the US? Even if the government can't, surely at this point the cable networks would remove them from their packages or Tucker Carlson and the Murdoch's investigated at this point
The cable companies don't remove money makers from their packages. You want to see a shit storm? Have the giant cable companies who all hold local monopolies announce they're removing some of the most popular channels (not just Fox News, it'd be the entire Fox package) because they don't like the content and don't want anyone to be able to watch them.

As for why they aren't being investigated, because it's not a crime to just say shit in America. Yet.

Also, you don't start criminal investigations of people because one of their employees said something you didn't like you fucking cop. Literally what shitty local cops do to harass people. ACAB.

Most of the thread is people complaining about spoilers for a movie released in 1993. :lol

Best necro bumb, Era can be really naive (see Stadia for the video game equivalent).

Well off the bat. This money should go to education. Plenty of teachers spending their own money to supply classes. 1 billion… No 200 million would go a long way and be more than enough to get things started.

Really is embarrassing that billionaires could easily solve a lot of problems in this world, but then I realize an uneducated populace is more in line with shareholder interest.
Last year the United States spent $767 billion on just public school education.

The total assets of Amazon Inc. are $420 billion.

It's been a while since I made one of these but this month is so jam packed I just had to let everyone know about it. And it seems like every other streaming service gets one of these now for some reason, even peacock. The 70s Horror collection two years ago was a real big hit and this one looks just as fun. And no I'm not being paid.

After reading all pages... There's people that really believe Nintendo and Sony are poor as fuck companies that would never be able to afford a big company acquisition like Activision if they wanted?
Let's be entirely honest, this thread is 100% pure console warring. Had Imran said Sony instead, this thread would be 30+ pages of celebrations and cheerleading.

that's a mass generalization plus a hypothetical, you don't know how people are gonna react. I, for one, am not okay with Sony buying any publisher either. Both companies can survive without dropping a fuck load of money on them.
BS, this user was hoping Jim Ryan would buy Square Enix solely for Final Fantasy series

I'm watching the local news right now and county officials are literally telling people to stay at home and off the streets because of downed power lines and flooded streets. The Florida Turnpike is shut down because it's under 4 feet of water.

Disney is such a terrible company.

I've never been a big theme park person. I'm not one of those Disney fanatics that has treasured childhood memories of Disney and goes to the parks 20 times a year. However, as a resident of Florida, I have in years past had an annual pass to the parks so that I could spontaneously visit for a day or two with friends/family whenever they wanted to go. Just ~5 trips per year and the annual pass paid for itself, so it was worth it financially.

That one thread here still blows my mind. Took near the whole forum questioning that dude for him to finally crack and run off to fascist safety zones. And he was hyping the game for what… months? Years? And about to run a massive OT

Surreal just watching it all go down

Whole forum or a gang of power tripping bullies? As for "questioning" it looked a lot more like orchestrated harassment to me.

Did he crack and run off to TheBoreHateSiteDotCom? Or was he forced off Resetera by these lunatics and their pet mod?

Trevor was much better than people give him credit for and honestly, it makes me side eye some folks that are aggressively negative towards his run.

As I recall, Jon Stewart wasn’t exactly the most receptive guy behind the scenes to his POC writers and contributors.

It’s weird for me, I’ve followed him on Twitter for ages and think he’s often hilarious there. But whenever I see clips of his actual show or in commercials I think they’re painfully unfunny.

Good for him. I've honestly never really love him as The Daily Show host but his future is absolutely bright.

I gave him many tries, but he never grew into the role IMO. Wish him the best, but someone new could be good for the show

Trevor's content during the pandemic was my favorite, among late night hosts. He was super relatable in those days, in a way that surpassed Colbert, Seth, etc.

It did smack of a lot of untapped potential, though.
