It doesn’t seem like a cult so much as a self-harm group. They seem to be proud of their pain, encourage members to hurt themselves, and build their identity around hurting themselves. It’s not unlike a group for cutters.

Hm. This self-harm group is getting a pretty sympathetic take. I thought the best thing to do about self-harm communities was not to advertise them like this, but I’m no expert. Well, if there’s room on the internet for starving and cutting groups I guess there’s room for encouraging pregnancy to be as difficult,…

Rein. Horses have reins but seldom reigns, outside imperial Rome.

Also, this: https://www.doesthedogdie.com/ - they have trackers for all kinds of triggers, not just good dogs going to heaven.

There are plenty of Christian review sites that do this exact thing. They might have more triggers than you would on their list, but they go through the quantitative gamut of each scene from cursing to nudity to suicide, giving the movies minus points for each infraction.

Elite media orgs, mainstream pubs. Are you writing from your phone?

She meant to write elite medium porgs.

“It’s the latest, most exaggerated version of a gaming-flavored narrative woven by elite media orgs” - oh those elite media orgs. More like N-P-AREN’T! Take that, cuckstream media elites 

Nancy Drew... no audience.

Are you not listening here? The point was that DT Jr took what was a statistic and replaced it with nazi code. It’s not a difference of 5%; it’s taking something that has the cover of statistics and replacing it with a non-statistic that is built on nazi imagery. He might as well have said “King votes with Schumer…

Why would a 14-year old today know anything about niche entertainment from 8 years ago? I really don’t see what this article is actually about... Pop culture ages; topical niche pop culture ages rapidly. There were games back then that didn’t assume the player was a man; there are games now that assume the player is a…

Can’t people just tell, by virtue of you looking like an old nerd? Do you have to tell them?

I always say I hate children. Look how they react to bugs, to bedtime, etc.

Encourage every child to become a a heavy gamer, because then they will become spindly nerds and my self esteem requires that I be able to beat up every generation after me on this earth.

“this is brilliant - it’s simultaneously something you’re controlling and interacting with in real time while also being the playback of an old video tape.” Wow. Let me welcome you to the world of every made-on-the-cheap indie horror game of the last three years... 

“apparently equates whiteness with being racist” well where on earth would she get that from. 

If you can classify waiting as interaction?

Read the article- the point is that the question is asked, not the answer, which is simply disappointing. The question is asked, pointedly, so that Fox, knowing the obvious answer, can get the pull quote they want: “DHS cannot rule out armed conflict with potentially violent caravan ‘army’”. The decent answer to their…

You can’t see why it’s troubling that the question is being asked? Repeatedly? “Here are some unarmed people. Will you shoot them? How likely are you to shoot them? How much would you shoot them? And if theoretically you would shoot them a lot, would you then shoot them some more? I mean, are we talking a war here or…

Good playground retort, kudos. I on the other hand am happy for you that you took away a good joke from what was actually pretty shitty material; that must make your life less demanding!
