One of the only posts he didn't reply to is the one with actual good advice: slow cookers.

Also:

Shoot for 155ºF internal temperature on the turkey instead of the recommended 165º. Then take it out of the oven and let it continue to "cook" for half an hour on the counter covered up before you cut into it.

You can thank me after the holiday.
You mean letting it rest? I already apply that same logic for steak, so doing the same for chicken makes sense.
I'm supposed to trust a diversity expert who can't tell turkeys and chickens apart? YIKES!

TOTY in the making

Nexon has to actually make pies.  For eating.  Not pie charts and graphs about the amount of skin darkness each Street Fighter character has. 

https://www.resetera.com/threads/looks-like-im-taking-over-for-my-older-sister-with-cooking-thanksgiving-dinner-any-advice.652833/ Neoxon Thanksgiving special announced!


Will there be enough diversity in food?  Will he get actual yams instead of just sweet potatoes?  Will his entire family leave instead of listen to him preach about how Street Fighter is not diverse enough?

Stay tuned.

I'm not stranger to the kitchen, as I've made breakfast, meats, & pasta for myself as well as my dad in the past.

User Banned (3 Days): Slut Shaming
Quote
A girl I went out on a couple dates with years ago was still on my Facebook friends list. She has RA and has been posting about covid fear and ripping into anti-vaxxers for the past year, fair enough and I agree. But over the past week or so I’ve seen her post countless videos of her at bars and at concerts on dates and shit with no mask and no care in the world.

so tonight she updates her Facebook status and says she thinks she has covid and then goes on to blame anti-vaxxers. So I comment and say, ya know..”Take some responsibility for your actions”, maybe stop going out to bars and shows and posting videos and tons of pics of you maskless in public around dudes you’ve just met.( I didn’t say that last part to her) She quickly deletes the comment, then messages me over messenger asking what’s my problem, I don’t know her and what is she supposed to do, hide at home forever? She then says I’m a dick, tells me to shut the fuck up and then blocks me.

so am I a dick? I don’t think so. While I agree anti-vaxxers are an issue, you can’t lay blame entirely on them if you aren’t doing what it takes to be safe. Vaccination alone doesn’t cut it.
:aah

Quote from: ToadPacShakur
I’m too sober to follow this
Seminal comes from semen, latin for seed. In technical usage, like biology and science in general, it's meant to refer to its seed origin. However, when used popularly it can be easily mistaken with semen. So I personally decided to avoid the term and use alternatives such as pioneering, formative, foundational, groundbreaking, influential. Same with saying "Book A is the bible for this topic", where bible comes from biblio, latin for book, but I'd rather avoid the word due to other popular connotations just to make sure nobody in the conversation might feel uncomfortable.

Well if if Cybergology cancels a word, I guess we all should.
Not everyone, but some of us have made a shift, read for example below:

Quote from: Antrax
It is but there's been a shift in academia at least to stop using that word. I remember talks and conferences first discussing it back in like 2012. But I don't know if that discourse has broken out of academia

I love when someone uses a word above a third grade reading level and there’s a reply like, “huh, learned a new word today”.

Why share that you’re a dumbass? Look it up and move on.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Creating a thread based on inflammatory false equivalencies pertaining to bigoted slurs

Quote from: bumble_pumpkin
Mods: I plan on explicitly referencing some very not-OK words in this post for the sake of illustration. Please let me know if this is unacceptable and I will remove them.

I've been hesitant on asking this question to anyone for years, but as a man born out of wedlock to a single mother, it has been bothering me... a lot. The western world still has a ways to go as far as eliminating bigotry goes, but a lot of progress has been made in the last few years. Generally speaking, if you go out in public especially in a major metropolitan city, shouting the words "cigarillo", "distinguished black fellow", or "distinguished mentally-challenged fellow" will garner some uncomfortable looks, almost guaranteed. These are hateful words with hateful origins and their unfavorable nature has been fairly well acknowledged in western society.

What baffles me however is the total normalization of the term bastard. A term that dehumanizes people, especially men, born out of wedlock to single parents. Even people who claim to be valiant supporters of social justice, frowning on the "r", "n", and "f" words, use it nonchalantly. These same people - who claim to be totally against toxic masculinity - using a word that not only implies men without fathers are less of a "man", but less of a human being.

Again... given the contextual implication of this word, why is this term so heavily acceptable, especially around Resetera, which is one of the biggest proponents of social justice on the internet today? Can someone please honestly explain to me why the same people who see the inarguable ugliness in the aforementioned words and still use the term bastard freely shouldn't - to be utterly frank - go fuck themselves?

It feels legitimately dehumanizing to be apart of a society and a community that claims to practice social justice and still freely uses the term bastard. I expect that behavior for the far right. I expect more from the left and this forum. If actual "bastards" like myself can't turn to the left for solace from toxic terminology like this, who then can we turn to? It feels like I'm robbed of a voice - that my disposition isn't "up to par" enough for people to be sensitive about it.

Some who read this might think I'm stirring up outrage for the sake of outrage, or simply being contrarian. I'm not. And if you truly do think that, how are you any better than the alt right who belittle social justice as "outrage culture"?

Others might think: "but people who use the term bastard aren't actually referring to children born out of wedlock". Fuck off with that bullshit. Do you think half the idiots on 4chan who fling the term "cigarillo" around every corner are actually referring to homosexuals?

One last anticipatory counter argument - some will likely say "but those other words have way more history/weight to them than the term bastard" - fine. I'm sure they do. Does that mean it's still OK to use the term bastard in a derogatory sense because it doesn't have as much "weight" as the other words? This isn't a pissing contest.

I haven't crafted my argument in this post with very much diplomacy, and for that I apologize. Despite my frustration, I legitimately want to hear counter arguments about why free use of this word is politically OK, especially around these parts. I am open minded enough to hear some arguments.

Mods, if you take some kind of action on my account for this post, I ask that you do so gently and preferably with a warning. This post was crafted with honest intentions.

Edit: and caught my own use of a word with some sensitive weight behind it (idiot) thanks to the posts in this thread. I can eat the shit I serve, gladly even.

Quote from: bumble_pumpkin
Quote from: BuddyDharma
Being born out of wedlock is itself pretty destigmatized and is getting more and more destimatized by the day. I don't know if there is continuing oppression of people born out of wedlock still. Kids don't get harassed at school for being born out of wedlock like they do for being gay, black, or non-neurotypical. Have you faced discrimination or harassment for being born out of wedlock, OP?
Yes I have. As a kid I would get weird looks from other kids when I told them I didn't have a dad, and even weirder looks when I told them he wasn't dead - he just wasn't ever there. Some would even remind me, on a daily basis, that I'm an "actual bastard" - surely an excuse for young children to use a "swear word". Have you ever known what it's like to have a major gaping hole of your adolescence be diminished to an excuse to use a swear word?

Years later, during my first job, my then-boss jovially teases our deficit of "manliness" - "come on guys, where was your dad when you were a kid to throw ball around?"

Being born out of wedlock may be less stigmatized in today's society, but growing up as a boy without any kind of father figure is absolutely still perceived as disadvantageous, especially straight men who have preexisting expectations from society that might not be feasible or natural for them because, well, we never grew up with it. Try living in a more conservative state and the problem/stigma becomes way more apparent.

Yeah, it just really bums me out when the BP cast has all these LEGENDS in it, and the one they choose to catapult to omegastardom is the anti-vaxxer who shares transphobic shit on social media.

The same thing that's happening to Elon Musk happened to people like Joe Rogan and Dave Chappelle, these are guys who could have manipulated the right wing sphere but instead found themselves brain broken by it and becoming enslaved to it.

The richest man in the world is effectively burning his wealth and empire to the ground not in a bid to "create a virtual town square", but to make a guy named "Cat Turd" like him. A 52 year old man with 20 kids is far FAR more terrified of people like Mike Cernovich and Ian Miles Cheong than advertisers. It's bonkers.

Wah

Dave Chappelle has not done anything right winger outside of “both sides” or the alleged “transphobia”. What the fuck with this false equivalences?

Witcher 3 was pretty questionable in this regard IMO. Lots of male gaze moments, and I sort of get the vibe this runs parallel to Geralt.

The argument that "Kratos also kills men!" doesn't really hold water considering how sexualized and objectified the women are, and the fact that God of War 1, 2 and 3 (can't speak to Ascension or the PSP/Vita games) feature QTE segments where Kratos brutally fucks women for red orbs and stuff doesn't help

Cool, lets imply that Kratos is a rapist. Whole thread is like an embarrassing attempt to metoo videogame characters  :lol

didn't know you play tested it already.

I don't why you are being purposefully obtuse about this.
Looks unfun, probably is unfun. Watch SQEX talk about "dissapointing sales" next year and shelf Luminous entirely.

The video claims that the creator of the game worked in the gambling industry and used his knowledge to develop an addictive game. And that the gaming industry has a blind spot when it comes to addictive games, because as long as no real money is involved addictive means the game is good.

That Sculli ban justification being “he trolls MCU threads and is a mean poopy head about it!” when all he did was jokingly say sorry I had to. Sensitive ass man children

*points in the direction of damn near every DC movie thread over there*

At least they are done hiding that it’s ok to troll DC threads and get away with it

What is this ban? How's this trolling? Are Marvel movies sacred cows now? Its fans a protected people? No light ribbing is permitted? Are we not allowed to say negative stuff about the MCU anymore? Or merely post quotes from established film reviewers criticizing an aspect of it in a thread about film reviews?

Relevant questions for me since I post in movie threads a lot.

This is literally untrue. They didn’t whine about their game or even mention its success. They just used a game they designed as something to compare VS to. Also you’re misgendering them.

I was not aware I was misgendering them, I did not see anything about their gender in the video I saw linked before and that is all my engagement with them.
Wasn't a purposeful thing from me.

My personal opinion about them their "it's not a videogame" video remains though.

You shouldn't have to present as female to not get violence against you for your gender identity, stop being transphobic you piece of shit. These are actual people's lives you are putting in danger. You're lucky I don't have a beer can right now.

Found out my fiancé (1.5 year, 10 years dating) had been cheating on me since July, shitty part is I found it was multiple people.

I sort of suspected it a little while back but of course she denied it, I found out when I saw a text on her phone and then the rabbit hole opened up. She is telling me all the stuff I want to hear but it’s hard to buy it, I really love this girl and it’s hard to let it go but I think I should. She’s talking about going to counseling and getting help for infidelity. It’s been a tough year on us both with moving and her Dad dying, really put her in a tailspin.

Reaching out to see if anybody has ever mended their relationship after something like this, is there steps or anything I should do to get trust back?
