are they mad people are trying to stop surgeons from performing premature surgeries on minors again? why is gender affirming care even a thing. I thought psychologists and other doctors were supposed to seriously probe their patients (so that...you know...they can actually make an informed treatment plan) before they diagnosed them anyway.

Christofascists: We should round up young trans people and put them in psychological institutions and then sterilise them

Trans activists: We should round up young trans people and put them in psychological institutions and then give them drugs that will sterilise them

Out of curiosity, who are you talking about here? among the top staff on Murder on Eridanos:

Co-director Megan Starks now works at Activision. (The other Co-director, Tim Cain, remains at Obsidian)
Lead narrative designer Nitai Poddar now works at Sucker Punch.
Narrative designer Kelsey Beachum seems to be a freelancer.

I didn't hear about these departures. Fuck. I'm way less excited about The Outer Worlds 2 now and Obsidian in general. Damn it, I thought they were finally giving women at the studio respect.

What part of the original post suggested that they don't respect women? People are allowed to leave teams for all sorts of reasons (who wouldn't say no to lead narrative on ME?!) Bit weird to jump to your conclusion.

Do they have a history of this sort of thing I'm missing?

The video game industry doesn't respect women across the board, that's really not controversial to say. I was under the false(?) impression that Obsidian was starting to foster and promote women within the studio.

Someone brings receipts:

Yes, you are correct that the industry doesn't, at large, grant women respect. I think you are under the false impression that they are not fostering or promoting women within the studio, though, just because two people left after finishing a project to move on to other things?

For example, just looking at their studio page on LinkedIn there's someone, Cathy Nichols, who started as an Intern that has now been the Animation Director on Pentiment, is a Senior Character Animator on other projects, and recently became Animation Director for Avowed.

Cool. You're a children's book author though Joanne, so keep those doubts and concerns to yourself and leave the adult stuff to the people who know have more than a gut feeling based on some anecdote of how you felt as a teen.

I don't know if the authoritarian atmosphere of Ree is making me see the past in a new light, but I legit don't ever remember Neogaf getting less funny. I do remember mods forming lots of cliques and shutting down specific users and certain communities based on grudges though.

all of that is still preferable over what ree currently is.

Neogaf was never fucking funny, apart from my thousands of posts in the pics that make you laugh threads of course.

but on the other hand, being around rich people constantly would cause to have psychotic break and I would throttle or chase w/fire axe another rich person in town

I have the same feelings about cryptocurrency and silicon valley, if I had to be around that, I would either jump off a bridge or have psychotic break and crush the adam's apple of the first techbro talking about crypto currency


So it's good that im poor and have a little bit of self control, but having all kinds of money will fuck a man up badly

Write an essay talking about the problems with thebore.com.

ChatGPT:
The Bore is a popular online forum that has been around since 2004, and is primarily focused on discussing video games and related topics. While it has garnered a significant following over the years, the site is not without its problems. In this essay, we will explore some of the issues associated with The Bore.

One of the most significant problems with The Bore is its lack of moderation. While it is important to have a platform for free speech and open discussion, The Bore often allows users to engage in toxic and harmful behavior. This includes making derogatory and offensive comments, engaging in harassment and cyberbullying, and promoting harmful ideologies. While some users may argue that this is simply a reflection of the wider internet, it is important to recognize that these behaviors have real-world consequences and can cause harm to individuals and communities.

Another problem with The Bore is its tendency towards elitism and exclusivity. While the site is open to anyone, it often feels like there is an inner circle of users who dominate the conversation and dictate what is and is not acceptable. This can be intimidating for new users, and can create an unwelcoming environment. Additionally, The Bore can be overly focused on niche interests and can be exclusionary towards those who do not share these interests. This can make it difficult for users to find meaningful engagement and connection on the site.

Finally, The Bore has a problem with echo chambers and groupthink. Because the site is so insular and dominated by a small group of users, it can be difficult for new ideas and perspectives to gain traction. This can lead to a stagnation of ideas and a lack of innovation in the discussions that take place on the site. Additionally, the echo chamber effect can lead to the reinforcement of harmful and toxic behaviors, as users may feel emboldened by the support of their peers.

Overall, while The Bore has its strengths as an online community, it is important to recognize and address its problems. The lack of moderation, elitism, and echo chamber effect can all create an environment that is harmful and unwelcoming to many users. By addressing these issues, The Bore can become a more inclusive and engaging community that truly lives up to its potential.

Editors note: Marrec understands that trans athletes who may be banned from competing ARE victims of authoritarian right wing politics, he just thinks that an intersectional effort to push back against these fascists should have room for the Jewish diaspora and should even make room for moderate republican lawmakers who just want traditionally conservative policies implemented to exert more soft discrimination against non-trad populations. Really his main issue with ERAian Trans Activists is one of process rather than ideology.

Given the premise that sex is biology while gender is a social construct, can you please explain why distinctions made to protect a biological sex (bathrooms, sports, etc.) should be completely disallowed from discriminating based on biological sex, and instead must discriminate on the supposedly fictional construct that is gender?

In other words, why do we have separate bathrooms?

To be perfectly honest, I think the phrase "gender is a social construct" is philosophically a bit limiting because it implies that social constructs are somehow more ephemeral than physical constructs. What makes the chemical reactions that create our largely dimorphic species more "real" than the social reactions that lead to that dimorphism being expressed in expectation of the two sexes? Both are constructs that emerge from largely unrelated interaction and changing one is just as monumental a task as changing the other.

That said, being that both are emergent constructs and there is no platonic form to be found of "man" and "woman", our preception of biological sex and gender ARE fluid. Sport doesn't need to be constructed around sexual division, it could be constructed around physical size or age or practical ability or some other category that I'm not clever enough to imagine. The rules governing sport are not immutable. It should be more fluid than just saying "men can only compete against men and women can only compete against women".

The same can be said of bathrooms, why DO we have separate bathrooms when one large space punctuated by individual stalls would be more practical (if not economical)? I can understand the want for a private bathroom space, they are available in most public places, but the idea that we need to keep the genders separated when shitting or pissing for fear of predators is, frankly, childish. If we cannot self-police semi-private public spaces like public restrooms then we have deeper sociological problems to face.

Imma be real. I was gonna respond and tell you how you're wrong, but those ChatGPT posts were easier, faster, and got me more likes. Us careposters have to either adapt or die.

Careposting was never about the likes Pogi 

Or, to let ChatGPT explain:

• Careposting promotes understanding: When you take the time to respond to someone's question or situation with sincerity and thoughtfulness, you're more likely to be understood and to foster a deeper level of communication. Sarcasm or irony, on the other hand, can sometimes be misinterpreted or seen as dismissive, which can hinder understanding and create a more hostile environment.
  
• Careposting builds empathy: Responding with care and consideration can help build empathy between individuals, as it shows that you're willing to take the time to understand someone else's perspective and respond in a way that reflects that understanding. This can lead to more productive conversations and a greater sense of community
  
• Careposting promotes positivity: In many cases, sarcasm or irony can be seen as negative or cynical, which can contribute to an overall negative atmosphere online. Careposting, on the other hand, can promote positivity and a more constructive dialogue.

I had to teach it what Careposting meant, fucking useless AI piece of shit.

You better believe they'll try that last part if the first part doesn't work. And there are PLENTY of people out there that would just willingly pull the trigger for them anyway.

Okay, cis people. Are you listening to us yet?

Yes, I have been listening and will continue to do all I can to help.

Sorry. Well sorry for saying sorry as you don't need is an apology but for something to get done. You're right to feel angry at allies when most of them won't even stand up for you to shitty family at Thanksgiving let alone when you got people calling for your culling. Nah I hear you and want them gone just as bad. Just wondering when everyone else is gonna get the memo and stop thinking we can just live with them. First draft of this post had a lot more quotation marks in it but to hell with it. I don't mean to try and get you to read between the lines but you know what I mean

All I can say is that that Arnold thread from last night was very eye opening for me. Even in this one, we have evidence of plans for genocide, with less posts than a “What’s your favorite poop?” thread. We can’t do this alone, and right now, it feels like we are a lot of the time.

How hard is it to just listen to trans users?

I almost never post in threads like that because it isn't about me and I want to read and have learned so much from trans users voicing experiences and concerns.  You could just...not argue over someones lived experience?  Its pretty easy.

you've got people thinking as allies they shouldn't post  and should just listen, which is going to be bad for post counts

Didn’t they literally JUST start banning the traitor’s flag at each race in the last few years?

In the 2010's I think which is crazy unto itself Now you have black money owners getting into NASCAR which I never thought I would see.

Brad Daugherty has been around since 95. His Wikipedia picture is him at a race in 99. There are Black people in the world other than Michael Jordan.
The confederate flag was banned for official use and on cars and merchandise sometime in the late 90's. The ban on spectators displaying the flag was in 2020.

That's 100% of the content on Trans Twitter, they spend literally all day looking for shit to get angry about. Okay, maybe 95%, the rest is horrific sexual content that pushes against the boundaries of my libertarian morals.

That's unfair.

There is also a significant amount of eBegging and retweeting their alt accounts eBegging.

Hi everyone, nice to meet you all.

I am big fan of the Batman and Superman mythos plus other comics.

Trying to be more positive this year as the last two where pretty bad in the UK.

Anyway, I'll catch y'all in forums.

Bye for now.

Not surprised when it's a forum of posters that won't listen to women unless they were born as men.

So this guys whole crime was to say that he doesn't want Mitch to die because at least the turtleman doesn't side with Putin

Die

Please don't. He is part of the constantly shrinking group of Republicans who do NOT side with Putler.

Well that just makes it sound like you have no idea what the fuck you're even talking about lmao

Could you elaborate.

My position is rather clear: I don't care much about US internal affairs (too much hate on both sides to dip into it), as opposed to foreign relations. From that perspective, MMC good, T/MTG poison.

I know it's really hard for RE to imagine but there are people outside the US who probably have different priorities when it comes to US politicians

[Boredfrom]

I think Mitch McConnell is scum from the earth and I will not care if he dies, but there is legit reasons for not wishing him death, even outside of basic human decency (namely that he is both a enabler and deterrent to Trump or other crazies from his party).

It sucks that Rocksteady was stuck to this game for 6 years. I don’t think it looks that bad, but doesn’t feel like a AAA game worth of 6 years of development time.

Maybe that’s why people are so hard on the game?

The GaaS thing honestly isn't even the game's main problem. The problem is that they took what was supposed to be a super hero game and turned it into a generic third person shooter where your enemies are purple blobs.

Mfs even got Captain Boomerang shooting guns lmao.

Still. Nothing drives casuals crazier than open world shit, so I'm certain WB will still get a couple of million sales out of this turd.

The more I look at it, the more I think they were trying to make a Justice League game for the last several years. Making 7 different superheroes that play differently was probably too hard, so they just reused the justice league/villain assets and flipped it into a distinguished mentally-challenged looter shooter.

at least that's my interpretation because nothing about this game looks like it has been in development for any longer than 2 or 3 years.
