Oh, and just to add:
These games aren’t marketed solely to the United States, either.

You have to advertise in dozens of counties, in dozens of languages

She’s a clone of a lesbian. I don’t understand how anybody is shocked by Aloy kissing a girl.

There was also Disney’s very milquetoast opposition of the Don’t Say Gay bill.

I’m overweight and I found it needlessly offensive.  So that’s 2:1.

came here to say the same thing.  Also, have you ever had a fresh-grown orange, like right off the tree? That shit is not to be underestimated. It’s the 4K version of frozen Sunkist concentrate’s CRTV image.

“Orlando would still be swamps and orange groves.”

Please don’t fat shame. No matter how vile Chris Christie is, fat shaming him hurts people reading who have done nothing wrong. 

Between none of the reporting describing the “prank” and a cursory view of their channel, in addition to their statement that they’ll continue “pranking”, I’m more than inclined to believe that there was no actual “prank” and it was likely just straight up harassment at the minimum.

Every word I’ve read that Anthony Broadwater has said has made me see him as a man who, though brutalized, somehow came through it with a generous heart

...and how many of those millions are coming from her and her book sales??
She is directly responsible for this mans incarceration and needs to be held accountable for it.
The police also, of course have their demons to attend to, in this case but if she hadn’t incorrectly identified the wrong person and got low enforce…

Courts don’t declare people innocent. They declare them “not guilty,” meaning the case wasn’t proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

I don’t have any of these issues, but I’ve had to deal with the fallout from them.

Yeah i agree but all situations require tact along with honesty. Give it a day or two and then gently bring it up. To bring it up probably within an hour of playing is obviously gonna hurt. At least if you do it after a day or two it will feel like you gave it a fair shake and they would understand.

Personally I’ve always considered Sanderson more of the shonen manga of fantasy books, since stuff like DBZ and One Piece is very much about power progression.  The whole connected universe of cosmere does make it very similar to the MCU of fantasy books.

Oh, and I forgot to add: of course you’re a real girl (though I’m sure you don’t need a stranger to tell you that) and your ex can to hell for being such a piece of shit.

And ruining a great movie!

Calling Sanderson’s work the MCU of fantasy books is wildly overgenerous, yet does have some truth in it.

Not a game, but I can’t enjoy Howl’s Moving Castle anymore as it was followed up immediately mere minutes after with my abusive ex emotionally abusing me and telling me I’ll never be a real girl and she was kicking me out of her apartment (I was 6 hours by plane from my home state). Luckily one of my besties let me…

I like Sanderson’s books, they’re definitely popular because they’re accessible and competently delivered as opposed to dazzling the reader with prose but there’s no shame in being the MCU of fantasy books.
