nah, we’ll just hire a saudi crown prince...

I had a manager years ago that tried making fun of me for going to play video games. I had to remind him that I was going to the home I own where my wife and child live, driving in a car I paid off to play games. I asked how is apartment was and how rough the dating scene had become. He did not have a response oddly…

What do you mean? As a lawyer with a full-time job and live-in girlfriend, I can see that playing video games and watching porn has completely ruined my life and masculinity, and marked me as a failure to everyone around me.

As someone who spends at least a little time each week playing video games and watching porn, it does my heart good to know that I’m a disappointment to Josh Hawley.

I’m rarely in the comment section but this is my take, too.

It’s part of my “Conscious Rapper” theory: That we think great artists are smart because art hides their lack of depth. But when you take away the art, you realize you don’t want to hear them talk.

See: Ice Cube, Erykah Badu, David Banner, Jill Scott, Killer…

“It’s funny you should mention that, because Chappelle left his very successful sketch show at the height of its popularity because he saw that his humor has having an adverse effect on how black people were represented.

No, and let’s be real: you aren’t interested in getting anything “right.”

It’s mindblowing that a guy who quit his show because he felt the audience was laughing with the racism and not at it has now thrown in his lot exclusively with the people that drove him to quit in the first place.

That he quit as one of the most celebrated comics of his era, and returned to comedy as generic boomer…

Yeah I’d give Dave a bit of leeway on the jokes. That’s not to say they aren’t offensive to people. Heck I watched the special and at times looked at the audience and could tell from their faces they were, at the very least, unimpressed with them. That’s jokes; some work, some don’t.

Yep. This is where people who think violence in video games is a problem get it wrong too. It’s not simulated violence that creates bad behavior. It’s actual competition. Whether that’s on a computer screen or a football field.

Porting and or remastering is not the same as remaking/making a game from the ground up. It’s a question of who’s on their staff that has experience making games. They very may well have made some hires and built up that skill set among their work force, but I’m not aware of that. So they have to prove it.

Pretty sure Wrestlefire is referring to the Christians who constantly reference Old Testament punishments for sins, despite Jesus specifically saying that shit doesn’t apply anymore.

Excellent parody of a True Gamer™ 10/10

Good news! It is not, in fact, a “baby,” so you have no issue.

You don’t get it.

See the thing is, most of the disputes around the definition of “freedom” lie in the fact that the US is, for better or worse, really the only meaningfully interracial liberal democracy in the world. You ask anybody who ISN’T part of the majority in the countries rated higher than the US, and you’ll get a strong and…

This is just a start. Pitting half your citizen against the other half with threat of narcing them out is the basis of all fascist government. 

Which unfortunately means there are states that, if they were listed separately, would be ranked even worse than the national rank.

This is really easy: as a consumer, I have the right to spend my money how I want, for any reasons I want. If I decide that I don’t want to spend money on a game because of the political opinion the man who owns the company that made it, that’s my choice. You may think my reasons are not good, but why should I care?…
