I hear you. I do.

You know mostly I think I was just bummed out on a lame pick on COTD.

It must be hundreds of times I’ve skipped past this recurring contribution.

Today I’m just going to put it out there that this is a disgusting and shameful ritual you perpetuate, and you should get your head out of your ass, look at a calendar, and stop treating women like pornographic props.

You already knew this. You…

The first line of my last reply was literally about how I didn’t think your comparison was invalid.

I think you might be trying too hard, and to what end I cannot imagine.

I see the point you are making and I’m not really denying it. I’m just seeing some nuance that seems important and relevant but articulating it feels so very wrong (e.g. Japan wasn’t Germany, atrocities in south east Asia pale in comparison to the holocaust, and the symbolism has contemporary usage that I don’t hear…

Persona 5 won’t be out in South Korea until next year

It is more like the confederate flag in that a legitimate political entity in the modern world still flies it for legitimate political reasons.

Also, no need to Godwin’s Law up this whole thing.

“The uploader has not made this video available in your country.”

What a weird thing to do.

I came in here to mock the obviously impending omission of Odama and now I really don’t know what to do with myself.

I avoided commenting on this story the first time around as it was still too sensitive*. This time the pangs of PTSD are mostly quelled after a few shots of espresso so here is what I can add.

Thank you.

I apologize if this is rude, but I’m not really sure we’d get anywhere if I took the time to do that. I think if we roll back you’ll find my original inquiry was for reading material to expand my awareness of the very literature you speak of. If you want to throw readings my way I assure you I’ll consume them…

We cannot address that we do not accurately identify. I am sharing my struggle so that I can find a means to overcome it. And I mean to identify and label the context that makes such a discussion so perilous and so difficult. And that is evident in how you ascribe to me a number of intentions and desires that I do not…

Well, I feel like I’ve been pretty upfront about awareness of how my comments and underlying beliefs are transphobic. Believe it or not, this is a situation that troubles me and I seek to remedy. But I’m trying to find a mechanism on which to build rational conclusions, not just put on my politically correct pants and…

Oh, I didn’t intend to do that at all. But it is a valid reading of the text so apologies for that. I am trying to find a good way to use language to be genuinely inquisitive on a sensitive subject, and that has it’s challenges.

Go download Spark. It basically is identical to Mailbox with some very very minor tweaks.

I got 5 on PS Plus and gave it a few hours. I watched a really long not very interesting cutscene, and was then instructed to purchase an apology gift and deliver it. The best gift I could find with the paltry help from the GUI was a bottle of Orangina.

That is just not true. The Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta (and comparable Federal superior courts across the country) will hear indictable criminal charges (ok there is some nuance to that but broadly speaking...).

Dear Americans, read “indictable” as “felony” and you’re most of the way there (and we call our…

God I wish I wasn’t greyed on Jezebel because people need to see more than what is typically being reported on this issue, which is what is repackaged here.

Thank you for not throwing rocks at me.

Like I said I’m familiar and comfortable with the harm reduction approach, but feel stuck in that lens which I know is not popular and used by transphobic people all the god damned time. But I also sort that kind of approach as distinct from “medical necessity”. Or at least…
