A bunch of well-meaning but under-prepared creative hands in the pot, with nobody guiding the recipe who understands any particular African culture enough to write a fantasy setting as a cultural examination.

Yeah, the fact that people got actively angry over this was pretty stupid. Sure the game was bad and the mistakes were awful, but there’s a definite virtue in being able to simply laugh about it and move on. Besides, remember Pavel’s misplay vs Lifecoach? You never know, maybe Coachtwisted will redeem himself and…

Ah, this makes so much sense. All those black guys who died first in every action or horror movie weren’t pushovers, they were just playing on Legendary.

If that’s indeed “standard rhetoric around these parts”, I’m sure you wouldn’t mind coming up with sources.

Also, this.

I don’t think the painting should be removed but I do think the protesters should be protesting, their protests should be covered, and people should be writing think pieces about it because it opens up an important discussion about art, about the public’s reaction to art and artists, and about appropriation and its…

“Hopefully this will bless your life and change it.” Girl.

And going to find the video of this.

I just love her without limit, she makes me so proud. She knows her stuff and does her research on everyone:

Her first episode aired this Wednesday, and featured an excellent interview with Rep. Maxine Waters, in which they talk about everything from the resurgence of the women’s movement to gangster rap (Waters’s favorite rapper is Tupac).

So those Brazilian soccer players in the shower were providing DNA samples for testing?

No, they can’t. The law specifically says as much. Section 5000A(g)(2)(a) specifically forbids criminal prosecution if you don’t pay the penalty. Section 5000A(g)(2)(b)(i) specifically states, and I quote, “The Secretary shall not file notice of lien with respect to any property of a taxpayer by reason of any failure…

Well, I know I feel safer here in this shining city on the hill, this beacon of freedom, this safe harbor for the wretched and yearning, this symbol that if you work hard you can achieve anything!

Gotta love the deliberate obtuseness of guys worried about “being accused of sexual assault.” This shit isn’t rocket science. It’s pretty easy to tell if someone is enthusiastic about having sex with you. They are active and participating as much as you do. They don’t just lay there like dead wood or try to push you…

It really does go too far. Because only one of them is assured of health insurance in the event.

I disagree that his use of the term was misguided. If we’re working from this definition of concentration camp:

Wait, so have you gotten the sense yet if Andromeda respects the player’s time? Because my biggest hesitance with this game is if it plays like DA:I and sets you up in this big open world with:

Yep. I’ve played games where the majority of players spoke French, and my French is weak. But somehow I didn’t find myself typing “TU EST MERDE!” “JE BAIS TU MERE!” or the like into chat. Funny that. Almost as if being bad at a language had literally nothing to do with how verbally abusive you are.

Britney cannot buy that car. Not on her own.

It’s the 17% problem. If a crowd has 17% women, men believe the gender division is 50/50.
