They’re selling their actual preorders - you HAVE to have the receipt in order to claim it. It seems like you didn’t read any of the article at all, man. It’s not unenforceable - it’s dead easy to enforce. Can they catch every person doing this? Of course not. Literally no one made that claim.

It’s right in the article: “some are writing or messaging that they have Gamewoori pre-orders, showing their receipts with claim info as proof.”

I did. Literally no one accused people who mess this up of “hating trans people.” If you deadname on accident, you’ve committed an extremely hurtful but fixable mistake. That’s not the same as accusing you of being hateful.

Nope, I just actually experience empathy, unlike a lot of y’all. I pity you.

Yuck. Cold pizza is garbage.

That’s why the convention is to include multiple identifiers for a person of note in these situations: “Danny Lavery, co-founder of The Toast and current author of Slate’s ‘Dear Prudence’ advice column” for example.
If that doesn’t identify the person for you, then you probably weren’t familiar with them under their…

Nothing like setting up a total strawman to excuse your bad behavior.

Netflix has already announced that their casting won’t change in any way, so rest easy.

This is all pretty fucking simple. If you’re confused by it, you must have a LOT of trouble using public transit, or washing your hands - both of those are significantly more complicated.

You don’t get to tell people what they can and can’t be upset by, especially after you (theoretically) just read a whole article explaining exactly why it’s so hurtful. So by enforcing your own values, you’re declaring that other people’s actual pain is less valuable to you than the very tiny possibility of your…

You went to a shitty j-school, then. It’s perfectly possible to cover this story without deadnaming Elliot, as evidenced by the HUNDREDS of outlets that properly covered it that way.

Suuuure. Just like beautiful natural rock formations “cause” morons to go out and tear up the wilderness to climb on them. People have agency - stop pretending they don’t. It makes you look like a moron.

“No cellphones” is not in any way a reasonable request. You should try spending 8 hours a day with your own boring-ass children without any phone or TV. You ain’t gonna make it, Karen.

“Worth” is an utterly imaginary concept that exists only in the minds of each consumer. Pretending that you understand some magical “absolute worth” that other people do not is asinine. An Apple product is worth its retail price because that is what consumers will pay for it. A babysitter is worth what she charges…

Agreed. Classic pedo guy.

Wow, you’re a whiny, entitled little brat. I can’t believe no one asked for your boring opinion on this. Grow up!

Your only point of reference is a cartoon depiction - this is the real thing! So blame the cartoonists for getting her wrong.

How hilarious and quintessentially British to pretend y’all don’t have WAY more hot takes about the US government than we do about yours. Come back to reality, blokes and lady blokes.

As a man myself, it’s not in any way an “unnecessary dig at all men.” It’s an utterly necessary critique that all men MUST internalize. Accepting perfectly valid criticism of the way “most” or “many” men behave is essential to good allyship. It’s disingenuous in the extreme to pretend there’s some unicorn man out…

I think this is awfully picky. I was super dubious about AirPods Pro before I got them, but I now use the noise-cancelling feature every day. And it performs way better than I thought it would. Even something as simple as washing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen - their ANC is more than adequate to remove the sound…
