Society has enough problems with gender stereotypes, entrenched sexism and sexual objectification.

Let’s see, turn based Japanese RPG with anime style character art? Hmm, sounds like the sort of thing Square Enix and the gaming media seem to think is outdated and will never fly in the modern era of action RPGs and realistic CGI graphics. And it’s making a crapton of money... go figure. Seems the experts don’t know…

Seriously, I really believe there’s a case to be made that our present-day teen dystopian ethos owes a lot to 1980s [music] videos.
Why the hell is this even a question? I’m so sick of small-minded people playing the “ZOMG you’re playing god!” card when it comes to science. Who the hell says this should ONLY be acceptable if used to treat infertility? Hell, if you ask me that’s the last problem we actually need to solve, humans as a whole are…
How convenient that you only sleep with overweight “people who don’t hate themselves” in a society that constantly levies judgement against the overweight and teaches them self-hate. Your condition makes the “fat people I fuck” a unicorn, basically, so you can claim to be all progressive and open minded without having…
Not a “lame power” per se, more like a weak power level being more useful than you might think. In the Marvel Superheroes RPG, I took Telekinesis and Telepathy at the TYPICAL rank, which as it implies is pretty darned weak. I turned it into basically a low level Jedi minus the lightsaber, but that can be gotten around…
My advice is don’t learn rules. And if you’re thinking about your writing instead of writing, you’re doing it wrong. The less your conscious mind is involved in the process, the better off you are.
What you should be thinking about is your story. That means daydreaming, fantasizing, imagining, for fun first and…
c-3PO is clearly a standard model protocol droid as evidenced by there being others who look just like him, so I’ve always figured Anakin put him together out fo discarded parts and a broken core frame. Kinda like how Mark Hamil put together a killer custom Corvette out of a junkyard find in another movie..
Perhaps you weren’t paying attention, but the number fluctuates over time with (at best) a slow but steady drop over the course of a decade, which is decidedly NOT what was advertised. If the gun ban was so effective, why would there be four years subsequent that are actually higher, and only one year below 300 from a…
Why is hentai and “imagery like this” a problem, because women’s groups don’t like it? Fuck them. No actual women are being harmed, these radfem women’s groups are rabidly anti-male to begin with so what’s to gain by catering to them? You give up the fantasy women in attempt to please the real ones, and you get…
Hmm, modern feminists are on a man-hating rampage 24/7 and men are avoiding dating / relationships / women and preferring virtual ones... you think there might be some link there? I’ve seen it coming for a while and it might be farther along in Japan than here in the West but it’s coming. When all women ever do is…
Wow you really don’t get it do you? If people WANT to use English or stop speaking French, and you won’t let them, you’re not “preserving” a culture you’re enforcing one. Using the law in a tyrannical fashion to try to fight change is not ok. What makes you think it’s ok for a government to police the speech of its…
Yes JMS did want his name off of it and he was convinced to relent somehow. He still left Marvel immediately thereafter and has expressed that he feels screwed over immensely. Also, the only reason he went through with writing it in the first place was that he was promised he could undo “Sins Past” which was screwed…
He’s also the inspiration for Kano from Mortal Kombat if I’m ot mistaken. At least, he sure as hell looks like him and at the time my friends and I agreed that was where Kano came from.
The only thing redeeming about V: The Series is how they managed to showcase Diana’s fine ass in various form-fitting jumpsuits. For that, as far as I’m concerned all is forgiven.
I don’t get that. Can’t you just, you know, ASK them?
Australia’s homicide rate has not dropped. Gun crimes still happen. Look at the graph, dude. No miracle cure here.
Alcohol prohibition was repealed because it was a disasrter that built criminal empires from scratch and created a vast new black market while failing to stop alcohol consumption, only driving it underground. Same bullshit happened with drugs, and people are finally waking up to that debacle, now reaxctionary idiots…
Does this look like a significant decrease in homicides to you? Note the ban happened in 1997 and in this chart the highest year for homicides is 1999. numerous years remain over 300 (the year before the ban had 354) and in all it’s a mostly flat graph with the kind of mild fluctuation you’d expect from a statistic…
