I’m just here to tell Jim Spanfeller, Paul Maidment and the rest of the cowards to get fucked.

So they wiped all comments from Deadspin this afternoon.

So, he was an absolute moron with terrible judgment. But he confronted his stupidity, accepted his wrongness, and learned. In 2019, that seems like a fucking miracle.

Honestly, I feel like giving this guy a parade.

Sorry to hijack this thread, fellow io9ers, but if you’re as pissed off as I am about the ghouls that run this website unilaterally deleting the posts directing us to make our voices heard about the autoplay vidoes, here’s a good and relevant tweet. I’ve sent some emails already.

Damn Regina King is 48? I never would have guessed! 

Respectfully going to have to disagree. Beginning a series with an over looked massacre, examining how reparations would impact the culture, and casting a 48 year old Black woman as your super hero lead is bold.

If it’s aiming for the realism of war, the part where you abandon the rebels to be ethnically cleansed should be interesting.

This article is so timely for me. I’m playing D&D for the first time for my 32nd birthday party on Saturday  (actual bday Sunday), and myself and several party members have social anxiety. I posted this on the event facebook page and everyone is like omg thank you. so yeah. Oh em gee thank you.

As a DM with anxiety, I heartily endorse talking with your DM before a game. My entire enjoyment is derived from my everyone in the party having fun (and killing things). I would bet that most DM’s feel the same unless they’re just a vindictive prick who wants to abuse his players, in which case I’d recommend trying

As a DM who has a player with severe anxiety, I personally recommend taking regular breaks. Give the players a chance to get up, and move around.

They are contradictory. If you don’t trust corporations, you shouldn’t be lambasting them for not taking a larger role in deciding what speech is acceptable. You should be trying to keep them as far as possible from political speech.

This is very silly of you. AOC demonstrated that Facebook is an untrustworthy arbiter of objective truth. This is a simple concept, which you split into two parts and tried to make them look contradictory. You might as well say AOC believes in gravity and also airplanes.

They brought Jason in from paternity leave just so he could delay a game again? Wow.

Should make it easier for those of us who loved the last movie to see this one without your obnoxious, judgmental presence.

Some ideas:

I’m sorry, but that’s bullshit. This isn’t exclusive with America, and to claim it as such is only diminishing the various shit People of Color have to deal with overseas. Let’s not seriously act like other countries are incapable of this kind of stuff.

She’s still using race as a costume. There are plenty of ways she could’ve done Pyke that didn’t involve race facing.

Fuck this cosplay, fuck blackface (which this is—just don’t fucking alter you apparent race for a costume you ding-dongs), and fuck everyone rallying around her. And if that’s “the community,” then fuck the community, too.

Yeah! She should stop being outraged and just accept the sexism and racism of the old days when they couldn’t speak out! Remember when we didn’t have outrage from minorities and discriminated classes? Ah, those were the days. Now they want “equal rights”. Those complainers.

I think Batman is one of the whiter characters- he’s basically white privilege personified. He gets to dress scary and drive tanks around a city, but the cops still shine a literal spotlight in the sky to work with him because he’s scary, but also rich scary? Honestly every other DC hero could be more easily played by
