It’s interesting, the 5E PHB emphasizes that humans are extremely diverse, whereas the other races aren’t. It gives nine separate human cultures (all based on real-world cultures), each of which has its own example names listed, but no statistical differences (allowing you to pick which one you want without having to…

OOOOOH STFU, some of us dont have the luxury of simply leaving a job and not being able to pay for our daily/weekly/monthy/yearly expenses because of some racist POS prick asshole slime bucket trash rat that works there and happens to be your boss thinks it’s perfectly ok to say and do racist stuff. He encountered a…

“Who’s gonna buy it, fucking Aquaman?”

The cynic in me just keeps thinking “it’s too late for this, that company already closed it’s doors, and the people at the top that fed that atmosphere will move from that cushy job to the next one on another company, and the cycle will continue”.

Way to live out the “Yet you participate in society” comic without irony. You should feel very foolish for doing this.

If you subject yourself to something you know doesn’t respect you its harder for me to have sympathy, especially when the only time you choose to comment about it is after you’ve stopped being paid.

I repeat, nearly every major company is housing racists.

Thank you Ian for reporting on this story and bringing it to a wider audience..

Not everybody has the luxury of just quitting their job. Do…do you somehow not know that?

I was about to say, they not only already created their first VR game—it’s one of the most immersive and greatest VR games ever made. 

They already made a VR game, Lone Echo, and it is amazing. 

Pulling you out of the grays just to tell you how wrong you are.

Ok, great, now the kissing + chair-whacking will make more sense to you.

Sure, but we’re not talking about whether Ansel Elgort is just gross or unethical, we’re talking about if he’s a rapist. So discussing whether what he did amounts to rape seems to be at the heart of the whole conversation. For the record, what he did was clearly gross and unethical, and he shouldn’t have behaved like…

Oh I mean, legally absolutely that should be looked at, I don’t disagree. I just mean for the average commentariat, focusing on that really just comes across as an attempt to minimize what is definitely gross and unethical at the very least.

“Focusing on the technicalities of legality when a dude who had way more power has painful intercourse with a girl just over the age of consent is also a shitty thing.”

Since nobody else has said it, this is why the call is for engaged and enthusiastic consent. Not implied consent, or assumed consent. The girl was 17, and he obviously wielded a substantial and outsized power and influence comparatively, regardless of the age of consent. If your partner seems uncomfortable or in pain…

just for everyone in the back: the issue isn’t that it-might-possibly-technically not be statutory rape. the issue is that what she’s describing is regular rape, including the phrase ‘we need to break you in’ while deflowering a 17 year old.

Her story hinges on her being sexually fucking assaulted, idiot. She’s not saying her age is the thing that made it legally assault, but saying that it contributed to the power dynamic of the rape and her own processing of it. He literally said “We need to break you in.”

That’s a much better proposition than untangling my USB cable from my keys and fumbling around to plug in both ends, failing several tries along the way because I’m miserably dexterity-challenged. I might even accidentally drop my phone or the battery pack if I don’t have a surface to work on.
