I think Square is so on board with NFTs and Crypo gaming because they’ve made A LOT of money off of the scam that is gacha games.

Crime has been dropping since the pandemic. Gun violence is going up. Gun violence has not-coincidentally skyrocketed at the same time as gun sales have hit record highs.

Also Sherri Shepherd and Rachael Ray. Always a rude awakening when the World Cup games would end and I was treated to Rachael Ray’s show. Drew Barrymore has a talk show too, but I love her so I don’t mind that too much.

An award-winning talk show at that. It’s been her big claim to continued fame for the past 3-4 years. I don’t personally watch it because there’s a bunch of spicy honey on my TV remote. 

I’m glad he mentioned not loving mixing Portal and HL into one story. The tone just never really matched and while it was a fun little easter egg for Portal, it’s goofy for Half Life. 

“Seriously, things are going to get very bad for some people in a bunch of US states.”

There were zero signs except that she literally told people she was retiring before any Hogwarts controversy occurred.

Unfortunately, chuds who want to remove trans people from public life will ignore the fact that this vtuber was going to graduate anyway.

After thinking about it, she means the second break she took after the other break. She took a month off already and took a second one after the harassment from announcing to play the game she never did. So she didn’t misspoke, you are misunderstanding.

Catching Amy Adams in S5 always gets me, too.  

End of thread, seems like.

“I can accept wide sweeping legislation that acts to restrict the bodily autonomy of individuals but I draw the line at being mean to a vtuber.”

“Because Pikamee’s Hogwarts Legacy tweets have been deleted, it’s hard to get a holistic view of how strongly people actually opposed her stream, though evidence suggests the criticism was clear in its disappointment but did not seem to escalate to harassment.”

Pomu, from Nijisanji said in a recent stream that pikamee had told her *prior to her break* about her upcoming graduation.

Yah honestly I don't get the hand-wringing from ppl who really want to think of themselves as supportive allies but apparently the thought of not playing the mediocre wizard game and giving JK rowling more attention and money is just too much to bear for them. Play the game if you want but ppl have a right to be…

All the reports I’m seeing from actual trans people is those harassers were, as one person put it, “internet shit stirrers who want to paint the trans communities outrage over JK Rowling as some kind of crusade against everyone”. Most of the trans people I’ve seen comment on others playing/streaming has been along…

I decided to click on the trending tab and take a look at this for myself for some ungodly reason, and holy shit, the amount of people who were “calling for war” as they put it, against trans folks over this and literally hoping people would kill themselves over the harassment was *insane*. It was the most brain…

And if they are named something like Meng Yao, that means they’re evil or support the big bad.

I imagine he’s not saying that European-derived names are the “normal” ones (and I agree with you), but using Shang or Chang or Chen is indeed lazy. It’s never Jinping or Zi Han, for example.  It’s similar to how in movies Asian women characters are frequently named ‘cute’ names like Kim or Mae, never something like…

That whole show was one stereotype after another. Lazy, but unsurprising.
