Bit weird the multi-updates per day JKR-Eating-Crackers thread vanishes to the memory hole as soon as someone does a podcast deep diving the claims and exposing what is basically a bad faith coordinated targetted harassment campaign, innit?

(Image removed from quote.)

Link to that podcast?

https://www.thefp.com/witchtrials

It was quite good. The usual places started scouring each episode for wrongthink and taking stuff out of context (e.g. the bit about Milo Yiannopoulos), but that petered out when it started including interviews with allies and what Joanne had actually said rather than what they tell everyone she said.

Being fair, that is how she got as far as she did. :yeshrug

She did try to pursue an Engineer career and even there she was told it was a completely nutty idea (but still made a ton of contacts there).

I dunno if she is a malicious cunt or just a nutcase, but is obvious that she is trying to delay her prison sentence by any means necessary (like getting pregnant and having children), so she is at least a cunt.

:cop User banned (1 month): Using platform wars to concern troll
Quote from: TechnicPuppet
It's worth considering whether this game should even be supported here.

:cop User Banned (2 weeks): advocating for the banning of content
Quote from: Tovarisc
Quote from: TheKupoxBooper
<_< Please don't compare it like that other game that shall not be named, This is Final Fantasy and has its fans worldwide. Just because of what Yoshi-P and his crew said? I dont think its going to stop the majority of people (Max included) from enjoying this game. I remember when some people made a thread about FF7 Remake "being racist" but Barret's performance in that game/the character included has been praised and has been used for cameos for birthdays doing the character's voice from fans worldwide. While I understand people being visibly frustrated, I don't see this game being "banned", let people enjoy and be excited for the game but let people who are outraged by Yoshi-P not support it.
At the end of the day no IP or product should be shielded by being X IP with a lots of fans. It didn't shield that other game.

Quote from: Dark Knight
Some are suggesting we should be banning discussion about any game series that could do much better but currently are not? The criticisms regarding a flagrant lack of representation in XVI are 100% valid, of course, but I dunno if that's a slope we want to start sliding down because you'd end up banning discussion about half of the industry's output. Nintendo alone would have a ton of game series banned here. I feel like there have to be better ways to push the industry in the right direction and none of them involve putting the entire discussion on mute.
ERA is already good ways down that slope. We just have gotten there by banning something either partially or fully, while letting other stuff go.

RE and Twitter bitching about NYT “humanizing ” Elizabeth Holmes  ::)

There was a Transexual media critic from Buzzfed that was bitching about how The Dropout humanize her even if it portrays her as a psycho. Those are the scumbags that regularly bitch about Old Media while promoting online rags like Gawker or Buzzfeed without self awareness.

New York Times' puff piece barely touches on all the malice this woman heaped on anyone who questioned her or her sham business. And it almost wholly omits all the harm Elizabeth did to real human beings with real health concerns.

Elizabeth is scum. She would have gleefully skipped off to Mexico on a one-way trip and then fled to Parts Unknown.

And good for her, birthing up two kids in record time. They can visit mom in jail.

(At least she got rid of her ridiculous fake deep voice.)

Let me just get this out of the way: I've got a poop and puke fetish. I'm disgusted with myself over it and I really wish I could move on. I would never be able to bring this up to a therapist so I've got to do it solo. My wife has no idea and I can't fathom how she would react if she ever found out. It would probably seriously hurt our relationship, and for that reason I want to stop. I think she would probably try to understand but I don't think she ever truly would. She's okay with porn, even some kinky stuff like lactation and spit, but I think this would be too far for her.

The fetish is exclusively porn, no physical stuff thankfully. In fact the thought of doing that grosses me out tremendously.

I don't know why I'm posting this here. I think I just need help. Have any of you successfully gotten rid of a fetish?

Is there a list of banned words perhaps? I virtually never lurk in these parts of the forum so keeping up with updates is tricky, not gonna lie, the C word kinda took me by surprise (not that I used it in my posts). But I just wanna make sure gendered male counterpart that starts with D is safe as well, because that one tends to slip out sometimes.

Quote from: Patsy, post: 105318673, member: 57582
While there isn't a list from what I know, it should be easy to just imagine any & all slurs are off-limits, especially if you're not part of the group of people who reclaimed a specific slur. Like, I'm pretty sure Black people on Era are allowed to use the n-word & I've never gotten in trouble for calling myself a dyke. So I'd personally always go by the rule of just not calling others slurs, even when it's one you reclaimed yourself!

These are just ones I can think of at the moment, but I'm sure I'd be missing some that I just don't really know of:

the n-word, the homophobic f-slur (both short & long version), the lesbophobic slur 'dyke', both of the transphobic t-slurs (one of which a subset of people love using for feminine men, but often gets directed at trans women in a clearly derogatory fashion considering the fucked up notion that they're "trapping" men into sleeping with them), the ableist r-slur & misogynistic slurs like bitch & cunt. Not sure if the former is treated the same as the latter, but I don't see why someone calling someone else that, especially a woman, would somehow not be bannable. I do think the latter is quite more hurtful still, but ymmv.

Misandry isn't, like, an actual problem in our cisheternormative patriarchal society like misogyny, transmisogyny & misogynoir are which is why shit like dick doesn't have any real impact & isn't considered a slur for a group of marginalized people. If men would be told to stay in the kitchen, know their place, to shut up, to just suck it up, to just take some dick when they don't want to, to just ignore & get over inequality that concerns them while being called dicks in the same breath, maybe they'd have a point. But there's no systemic misandry men have to live with their whole lives, so there's no reason to think a harmless word like dick could ever even remotely be as harmful as misogynistic slurs can be. Men may get called pussies, women or homophobic shit for not being toxic masculinity incarnate, but that just wraps around to homophobia & misogyny again.

Fucked thing is, misogynistic slurs don't even just impact women, I've seen my fair share of misogyny directed at feminine men (some of which turn around to be misogynistic themselves, but that's a whole other problem) & lots of non-binary people as well, especially if they're afab & still quite fem like me. I get read as a cis woman in pretty much any cishet space, because it's just hard to hide an hourglass body with 36HH cup boobs lol & I'm mostly okay with it for safety reasons (& ig I still consider myself a women in some situations & on some days, just not cis), which obviously doesn't stop people - mostly men - from being deeply misogynistic fucks towards me. Misogyny is a huge societal problem even in leftist spaces (my country's leftist party had its own sadly short-lived #MeToo movement ffs) while misandry really is not. And I feel like until men actually understand that, we'll never stop getting men here on Era who'll make shitty ass posts making fun about the rules & how it's soooo "Americanized" or whatever. Not talking about you btw, you're good, just saw shit like that a lot in that recent thread.

I don't like how people turn this tragedy into something it's not.

The guy who killed the man didn't set out that day to kill someone. At least we don't think he did. He made a terrible decision. Even if we're angry and disappointed about how this was handled, we can't change the facts. It was a tragedy. We can learn from it as a society or we can continue to play the blame game and use every excuse to further hatred and division. We must seek truth and justice but we also have to agree on the laws that govern us. If the law was broken, he'll be prosecuted. The court of public opinion just causes more confusion, anger and vitriol... which helps no one.

Pretty ancient thread. Amusingly, the guy was still making posts and only got permed 3 months later!

Just that page is a great time capsule with these sorts of gems:

Quote from: Kyuuji, post: 45718403, member: 31943
I’d like to thank the administration staff for continuing to enable the ability for people to fawn over an IP that is directly linked in giving influence to a woman vile enough to put children in hospital, have human rights awards revoked from her, be cited by and bolster the arguments of anti-trans legislators in attempts to strip the rights of trans people in my country and work to diminish vital healthcare access to young trans people here.

What the actual fuck is going on?
What am I supposed to think when we’ll undoubtedly fly a trans Resetera avatar here come Awareness week in November?

$118 domestic isn’t bad, but it is when your sequel cleared $146.2 million and you're an MCU movie. It is.

I think its slowly dawning on them that most people are over keeping up with every MCU movie or project. People keep these numbskulls. that most people jumped off when Endgame finished.

the game looks fun, i hope it's not excessively action and more rpg-oriented

Pretty ancient thread. Amusingly, the guy was still making posts and only got permed 3 months later!

Just that page is a great time capsule with these sorts of gems:

I’d like to thank the administration staff for continuing to enable the ability for people to fawn over an IP that is directly linked in giving influence to a woman vile enough to put children in hospital, have human rights awards revoked from her, be cited by and bolster the arguments of anti-trans legislators in attempts to strip the rights of trans people in my country and work to diminish vital healthcare access to young trans people here.

What the actual fuck is going on?

I'm pretty sure the game will sell as much as it would have if Rowling weren't a TERF (sadly :/), so at least the devs will get properly paid

Doubtful. Harry Potter has absolutely seen reduced sales over the last 6 months compared to other books.

It will still sell a lot, but between the last movie being bad and the TERF stuff the franchise is at a low.

Is there a list of banned words perhaps? I virtually never lurk in these parts of the forum so keeping up with updates is tricky, not gonna lie, the C word kinda took me by surprise (not that I used it in my posts). But I just wanna make sure gendered male counterpart that starts with D is safe as well, because that one tends to slip out sometimes.

Quote from: Patsy, post: 105318673, member: 57582
While there isn't a list from what I know, it should be easy to just imagine any & all slurs are off-limits, especially if you're not part of the group of people who reclaimed a specific slur. Like, I'm pretty sure Black people on Era are allowed to use the n-word & I've never gotten in trouble for calling myself a dyke. So I'd personally always go by the rule of just not calling others slurs, even when it's one you reclaimed yourself!

These are just ones I can think of at the moment, but I'm sure I'd be missing some that I just don't really know of:

the n-word, the homophobic f-slur (both short & long version), the lesbophobic slur 'dyke', both of the transphobic t-slurs (one of which a subset of people love using for feminine men, but often gets directed at trans women in a clearly derogatory fashion considering the fucked up notion that they're "trapping" men into sleeping with them), the ableist r-slur & misogynistic slurs like bitch & cunt. Not sure if the former is treated the same as the latter, but I don't see why someone calling someone else that, especially a woman, would somehow not be bannable. I do think the latter is quite more hurtful still, but ymmv.

Misandry isn't, like, an actual problem in our cisheternormative patriarchal society like misogyny, transmisogyny & misogynoir are which is why shit like dick doesn't have any real impact & isn't considered a slur for a group of marginalized people. If men would be told to stay in the kitchen, know their place, to shut up, to just suck it up, to just take some dick when they don't want to, to just ignore & get over inequality that concerns them while being called dicks in the same breath, maybe they'd have a point. But there's no systemic misandry men have to live with their whole lives, so there's no reason to think a harmless word like dick could ever even remotely be as harmful as misogynistic slurs can be. Men may get called pussies, women or homophobic shit for not being toxic masculinity incarnate, but that just wraps around to homophobia & misogyny again.

Fucked thing is, misogynistic slurs don't even just impact women, I've seen my fair share of misogyny directed at feminine men (some of which turn around to be misogynistic themselves, but that's a whole other problem) & lots of non-binary people as well, especially if they're afab & still quite fem like me. I get read as a cis woman in pretty much any cishet space, because it's just hard to hide an hourglass body with 36HH cup boobs lol & I'm mostly okay with it for safety reasons (& ig I still consider myself a women in some situations & on some days, just not cis), which obviously doesn't stop people - mostly men - from being deeply misogynistic fucks towards me. Misogyny is a huge societal problem even in leftist spaces (my country's leftist party had its own sadly short-lived #MeToo movement ffs) while misandry really is not. And I feel like until men actually understand that, we'll never stop getting men here on Era who'll make shitty ass posts making fun about the rules & how it's soooo "Americanized" or whatever. Not talking about you btw, you're good, just saw shit like that a lot in that recent thread.

Don't men have an exceptionally higher suicide rate than women? If you tried to virtue signal hard enough you could probably make an argument why making male gendered slurs are harmful too. But of course you can't be a victim if everyone is a victim, so even RE needs a group that's free for all

The Marvels box office thread is going to be delicious. Lots of blaming ‘chuds’ on the horizon.
I've seen positive buzz about this movie considering you know, it's actually a good movie.
Also read up on the budget, apparently it cost $250 million to make and like Ant Man would need to cross about $600 million to be profitable.
It really depends on the legs. Overall though I think Marvel is in the red as movies like this have to make up for other bombs like Ant Man and the upcoming The Marvels.
Unless it captures the Zeitgeist for whatever reason like Black Panther did (Joe Biden rolls over and Kamala becomes first Yas Queen President), I don't see how The Marvels won't flop.

Nintendo's Mario movie only had a budget of 100 million, split 50/50 between Nintendo and Universal. Nintendo's own marketing effort was basically only a bunch of Nintendo Directs and an eShop sale of existing Mario games.
They've made a massive profit.

Quote from: MetalGearZed
As someone else with a *ahem* niche fetish, I would like to say that as long as it is not exploitaive, harmful etc., you should never be ashamed of it. I'm not therapist, but I don't think it's good to maintain an antagonistic relationship with one's sexuality. Instead you should accept that you have this particular fetish and develop a healthy relationship with it.

Also, "getting rid" of a fetish may not be a realistic goal. Outside of some A Clockwork Orange style association experiment, you will likely always be into poop/puking. However, you can control your exposure to it and that is what you should focus on.

In my experience, the more I "feed" my fetish, the hungrier it gets. Which is to say that the more I watch that style of porn, the more difficult it becomes to stay away from or stop thinking about. So, if you want to make your enjoyment of the fetish less prominent, you should ignore it. Which, I know, is easier said than done, but it will get easier the longer you stay away from it. If the urge gets bad, try watching some non-fetish porn just to relieve yourself, and hopefully the desire will go away with it.

Also from reading your OP, it seems that what you are most concerned with is your SO finding out. Obviously, you don't have to tell her that you have the fetish, but it is still worth finding out for sure, in some discreet way, how she would feel about it. Especially if her being supportive of it would make you happy.

It's tough man, I never really had that kind of fetish, but at least porn in itself had me disgraced with myself. I had to quit it completely because every time I watched it, I just felt gross. I know I didn't want that as part of me anymore. I fought and fought, for years, to break that curse on my life. It's weird though, for me, I didn't stop watching porn until I had a manic episode and my cravings for it kind of just disappeared completely. I don't want to bring up Jesus or anything and shove it down your throat, but praying to Jesus has helped me keep the cravings at pretty much 0% for the past 2 months, which is weird I know, but it's helped me.

I hope that you can find what helps you though. Don't be too hard on yourself for it, things like this plague millions and you are not alone. Just keep fighting those urges every day with all your might. Anytime your mind tells you that you want to watch that stuff or think about it, tell it to shut the hell up and that you don't care what it tells you, that you won't fall for it's trap. Fight the mind as much as you can! You are in control, not the mind.

I don't like how people turn this tragedy into something it's not.

The guy who killed the man didn't set out that day to kill someone. At least we don't think he did. He made a terrible decision. Even if we're angry and disappointed about how this was handled, we can't change the facts. It was a tragedy. We can learn from it as a society or we can continue to play the blame game and use every excuse to further hatred and division. We must seek truth and justice but we also have to agree on the laws that govern us. If the law was broken, he'll be prosecuted. The court of public opinion just causes more confusion, anger and vitriol... which helps no one.

My father and his father before him was a fucker of pussies. It has been a long held family secret and I'm finally done hanging my head in shame. I, myself, have a predilection towards fucking pussies. I don't know if it's hereditary or some unresolved trauma in my childhood.

It started of simple. I would court a woman. We would walk about a garden estate and then I would fuck her in the pussy. This went on for years, with none being the wiser as to my sexual deviancy, save the woman I was fucking in the pussy.

Eventually we had a child, who we named Chrysler Sebring Dirtroad. My parents still have no idea how he came to be. I told them we had ordered a frozen cake and that Schwanns ice cream had flubbed the order and had somehow delivered an unfrozen baby. I can't keep up the ruse for much longer. The baby is not melting, nor is it made of cake.

The twins keep gnawing on the child about the elbows and shins when I'm not looking. It's too much. How do I tell my parents that I fuck pussies? How do I "come out"? It's already an open secret that some in my family are "cisgendered" who just happened upon mysterious children of thier own.

Any adivce would be appreciated.

Don't men have an exceptionally higher suicide rate than women?

A therapist would not judge you

And yes, go talk to a therapist. That's literally their job i.e. to listen without judgement and help.

Lol. Fucking right they'll be judging. Maybe not to the guy's face but they'll definitely be saving that one for laffs down the pub.

As I understand it, yeah, they absolutely are judging you, and most of their job is just spending long enough getting to know you, get you to comprehend, and to correctly sugar coat the ways in which you are fucked / fucking up and what you need to change to stop that.
