While I’m not a Harry Potter fan, I do enjoy gaming. This is what made me ask what the fuss is all about so I read her tweets and her essay and I didn’t take it as she’s transphobic. She didn’t come across as being afraid or have hate for the trans community. I see that she did have concerns as a biological woman,…

It’s an amazingly deep and fun game. My 9 year old and 15 year old daughters are having a blast exploring. Even my 43 year old wife, who doesn’t play games at all, loves going around and collecting things, opening up the map, etc. The long and short is, it’s probably one of the best, biggest, most fun, and most…

The hoops were already there, I just moved the marker.

Carolyn, you really need to relax. You are reading WAY too deep into some of this shit. I get it, it’s cool to be on the Rowling hate train and Kotaku loves stirring up unnecessary controversies, but it’s okay to enjoy video games, even controversial ones, without the baggage of social commentary and toxic social…

“A good faith discussion”? Seriously? You’ve been trashing this game to hell for 18 fucking months. Let’s not even get into the unbelievably naïve calls to divest profits from the game from the actual IP holder. A game that Rowling’s assistant’s assistant probably deals with. A game that Rowling probably can’t…

I’m all for standing up for Transgender rights, but if you are going to harass and bully people so aggressively, by even going as far as creating a website to tell you whether a streamer has played said video game, you aren’t exactly creating a healthy narrative.

Yeah, and by that same logic playing a video is not the worst someone can do. Scale matters. Intent matters. Lumping people together into a bin with transphobes and Nazis is throwing the baby out with the bathwater in this case. It is counterproductive and damages the very cause the community and its allies are…

Yes, you nailed it, let’s disregard the disclaimer right above that paragraph. Fucking troglodyte. Clip Chimping 101 right here!

I understand not wanting to support anti-Trans billionaire JK Rowling 1,000%. I’m not defending any part of that revolting cunt’s war on the Trans community.

I don’t think there’s anything racist about it. It’s just a kind of smug looking picture, very meme-ready. 

100% agree that the health issues associated with obesity are a social problem. You’ve left out poverty, though. The “real bread” you mention is a lot more expensive than the less nutritious bread with added sugar.

Two things can be true: obese people should be treated with dignity, respect, love, and validation; and we need to confront the food problems that are causing unhealthy obesity and killing people. The former is a social issue; the latter needs to be led by the agencies who are supposedly built to help combat public…

Part of the problem with your critique is that you might not be considering just how big the financial difference is between Mr Beast and proper lobbyists. If Mr Beast stopped making videos today and took only the millions he had on him now, no new videos or stunts to generate more, he would be a pauper at the…

To be fair, doctors also profit off the sick and disabled, with the best ones making a name for themselves. If you have a problem with this guy, you should have a problem with every single person at Mayo Clinic.

Is there a name for the phenomenon when society takes someone who is very successful, and by all accounts an extremely down-to-earth and well-adjusted human being, and suddenly decides that they suck and don’t deserve their success?

“What if, instead of charity, Mr. Beast used his money to create organizations that could effectively lobby for breaking down the pay-walled access to this simple surgery”

I suspect a video about the years-long slog through lobbying and legislature, with its accompanying failures and setbacks and systemic sabotage, to finally result in a compromise which allows for some mild progress, will not generate the revenue sufficient to fund such an effort.

This guy can give away money because…

Is there no one left in entertainment that isn’t a ginormo-gantuan piece of shit?

Oh get off it. I lost one of my lungs and nearly died in hospital due to Covid. What a society of weak, soft-headed sad sacks that you get “exhausted” of a piece of fiction because it has something that exists in reality. Death, crime, murder, war, all happen tens of thousands of times a day across the world, yet I…

This isn’t even a story nor does it reflect badly on Paul, who is a dipshit.  He rehomed it properly to the horse ranch.  It was the OWNERS of the horse ranch that abandoned the pig.  Paul had nothing to do with the animal after dropping it off at the first ranch.
