If you put your height on your profile, you'll weed out the heightists. I'm 5'6" and it made much easier to avoid that awkward discussion. Only one time someone rejected me after a date due to my height and that's because they didn't read my profile.

Abc news was the first to publish the photo since i see them getting credit for it, you can do a search and find it pretty easily. Apparently this assailant according to neighbors and his incarcerated gf was mentally unstable and for the most part progressive. Though using political affiliations with any one that isn't in their right mind doesn't seem to help. Black lives matters sign, 9/11 was an inside job, positive definition of a liberal from Websters sticker, pot leaves all on the outside of his home. Broken down school bus. Thought he was Jesus at one point.

What proportion of those seniors dying are Black and Brown folks caught in the crossfire of the culture war versus white folks who refuse to get vaccinated because liberals or whatever?

:wut  :mindblown

What proportion of those Black and Brown seniors dying also didn't trust doctors with their unsubstantiated vaccines and history of racist medicines? Much like butchers and their unclean meat.

I was once given the plot of the show Dope Fiend and told pill mills weren’t a thing when I reasoned that a lot of bumpkins weren’t getting vaccinated due a distrust of medical professionals because of the big part they played in the opioid crisis.

But what do I know, I only grew up in rural West Virginia when this was all starting.

New God of War review thread predictably cringe. Bunch of tears because one review gave it a 6/10 god forbid. For some reason mocking those who thought it would score an 88 or so. Getting upset because someone dared say Elden Ring will likely run away with GOTY awards, which is a fairly easy guess to make.

But hey they aren’t brainwashed over there though. FUCK JIM RYAN feels like years ago already.

To anyone who said under 90... lol.

The arguments never made sense. Uncharted 2 perfected everything Uncharted 1 set up, wasn't drastically different and released on the same console/generation... It recieved a 96 metacritic average.

The follow-up to the GotY of 2018, a game which now has sold 23 million copies, was never getting anything but raving reviews.

There's no way in hell SMS would ever fuck this up.

Welcome to every review thread of the last 15 years.

When a game 'underperforms', it's all about "thinking for yourself", "never trusting numbers to begin with lol", "these reviews are attention whoring", "umm actually play it for yourself?!". The same goons will be back jizzing themselves over those 10s a few weeks later. Any skepticism that something might be overhyped instead of underrated? No, because shilling is in the DNA of manbabies. Same reason to stay away from sales threads anywhere.

It's over, period. America lost their last ace, and that's the end of their democracy hopes and dreams.

It's not hyperbole, it's not fanboy drivel. It is LITERALLY it for democracy. America has nothing left, nothing they can reveal tomorrow would fix the hole now created. There is no reason left for any one, hardcore or casual, to substantively invest in democracy.

The age of America is done.

Good, I'm ready for the Age of Aquarius.

I take offense at the term mediocre.

The vast major of films and TV, especially gears toward men exclusively are mediocre. Yet those are given a pass because it is okay men to like dumb, pulpy stuff.

Where as women/minority works have to hit a higher bar than male dominated media in order to even exist. Labeling Disney shows as mediocre is gate keeping- saying it is not real media.

PSSS. Women like dumb, pulpy stuff too. Even better when the acknowledge women power fantasies and shit they deal with on a daily bases. "Mediocre" stuff is a valid form of escapism.

There is also the bias of why something is mediocre, by MALE standards. There are plenty of women who like shows like Miss Marvel and She Hulk for exactly what they are and don't see them as mediocre. They are perfectly fine shows, to a dare say good. They are not trying to be an art house films.

I agree that you shouldn't call She-Hulk mediocre. It wasn't good enough to be mediocre.

Gets weirder with the ways men infantilize women and tell them what they should like. Like the discussion over women liking true crime. But guys will crawl up and yell how it’s dangerous and their feeble female brains should only consume empowering content like Miss Turbo Teen.

He quoted the original AEW tweet, which had them tagged. But that shouldn't even be the issue. The real issue is that instead of taking the high road (and the professional one, mind you) Jade, Britt and the gang decided to gang up on the dude because he said what 99% of us are thinking but are too afraid to say it because of this very same reaction by everyone.

Do they realize how insane they sound for anyone not into the internet drama?

"We're going to focus on franchises," Zaslav said during an investor's call Thursday. "We haven't had a Superman movie in 13 years. We haven't done a Harry Potter in 15 years. The DC movies and the Harry Potter movies provided a lot of the profits for Warner Bros. … over the past 25 years."
Run your profitable franchises into the ground, then decide to focus on the franchises you ran into the ground. Corporations can be funny like that.

5 years from now: "Audiences did not flock to our highly anticipated line-up of the Snyder directed Harry Potter and James Gunn Superman movies as we expected. Clearly showing the need for new original IP's and innovation!"

Nintex, breh, you need to read better. He got dates wrong (Man of Steel was nine years ago not thirteen) but his examples were specifically things they haven't run into the ground. He's saying DC has been very good to Warner but they haven't touched Superman enough. Same with letting Joanne (TERF BITCH BTW) do a spin-off instead of more direct Harry Potter stuff.

An online posting with antisemitic comments in a forum that is frequented by extremists is what prompted the FBI's alert, a law enforcement source told CNN.

Which Era thread was that?

It's the FBI, how do they not know who these "online" posters are, and go after the source?

Because it's not a federal crime to post antisemitic comments? And it is against the law for the FBI to persecute Americans for their speech?

Never got into Harry Potter but is anything stopping them from making a Boruto movie? A sequel with Harry and Harmony’s kid. Seems an easy way to cash in on nostalgia. Or is it too soon for those actors to play parents. Somehow Voldemort returned.

Well this doesn't make me feel comfortable going to New York for the first time ever this weekend. Literally staying right next to New Jersey at times square. A Google search says there are a lot of synagogues near where I'm staying.

All of NYC is "literally right next to New Jersey" as that's what's across the river. :lol

Does he think they're going to nuke a synagogue and the FBI's just going to let it happen?

These dudes all cry constantly about the cops and disinformation, FBI announces a terror alert something that has never been followed by a terrorist attack let alone the one that the FBI threatened, they all wail and SOMEONE SHOULD DO SOMETHING just like the white women they despise watching "4chan" blowing up a van on the local news.

Look out for a terrorist by the name of Samir Hydenko

He was last seen listening to Kanye West playing the murder simulator Counter-Strike and he played as a terrorist.
If that isn't a smoking gun and a clear and present danger to democracy I don't know what is.

He also has a VHS tape of The Apprentice and a Tumblr blog.

All this information has been confirmed by law enforcement officials who wish to remain anonymous for national security reasons but know sources who are familiar with the matter.

Sometimes I feel like people on Era must be actively looking for controversy as I don’t run into half the negative discourse people are talking about. And even when promos start getting released for whatever it is, discussions here get overrun with the anticipation of controversy before it even happens. It just seems like a miserable way to consume the media you love.

None of the actors want to do it (yet... *cough$$$cough*) and Cursed Child is semi-canon dreck Rowling wrote for theatre which advances the continuity in unfortunate ways. And I don't think Rowling will retcon her own stuff so blatantly (cue laugh track), but who knows...

They are going to celebrate that China bans a film just because WB/DC.

Why is this getting so much hate again? :lol It's been The Rock's passion project since like 2008.
