Call me overdramatic, but stuff like this (Yanfei’s story quest to be exact) is why I put the game down and haven’t picked it up again.

Logically speaking, a parking space is smaller and requires more precision than the parking lane, therefore you’re better served pulling into a space nose-first. Better visibility and control. Backing out into the parking lane gives you a (usually) much wider area and can be done in reverse more effectively than…

don’t forget: we also REALLY like money. companies will do asinine shit like this to try and protect a bottom line. Now combine that with the lack of rationality you mentioned, and hoo boy shit gets dumb

Smoking and doing drugs are behaviors, and fatness is the state of someone’s body. It’s disconcerting that you’re a doctor and wouldn’t be aware of the difference

What else do you keep on your phone to remember

If you survive the end of a movie, you get promoted. Rose is gonna be a captain in EP IX, you just wait

Especially as far as Jedi deaths go. He signed up for a miserable ending when he grew that beard, he actually gets off easy imo

I didn’t enjoy the film after watching it. I hated it after thinking about it too hard. I started to like it more while talking to others. I remembered tons of stuff I really liked while reading reviews and critiques. All this to say, it’s been a journey and I have come to the realization that this article is correct,…

There have always been a limited number of animal personality types, but I think the dialog options are a lot thinner in this game

But they wouldn’t have asked openly for tips unless they knew someone knew something. They knew he had done it; they didn’t have anyone willing to say so. You don’t open up for tips for testimony like that without a solid lead.

I think gamer culture is one of the main producers of online culture, though. I don’t have anything to back it up, it just seems that way.

Or abortion restrictions that make no medical sense and are transparent attempts to legislate away something lawmakers don’t like without actually making it illegal? This seems very similar to me

They already have that right, at least for stuff that doesn’t fall under fair use (eg parody or review). They have allowed streamers to use their IP bc they are cool with it, and now they aren’t cool with this particular streamer using their IP any more.

Why?

He’s a man, insisting that he knows more about the woman’s job and place of work and rights than she does. That’s what mansplaining IS. This is both police abuse of power AND mansplaining to boot, why is that controversial?

I say this, as a person with a beard: his beard makes me deeply uncomfortable

Sounds like white fragility at work

See, difficult single-player games I can do, but only if the repetition is a tight loop and not a huge investment of wasted time. Hyper Light Drifter was perfect in this regard. Really well-placed checkpoints made that game challenging and enjoyable. The learning curve was steep, but steady.

“Japanese pop culture’s insistence that trans women stick to comedy that can undermine them made it difficult for Ogigami to find someone to portray Rinko, who is wonderfully played by cis male actor Toma Ikuta.”

Cis is the opposite of trans, and saying “just say male or female instead of cis” implies that only cis people are real. If people are using cis while belittling you, it’s because you’re saying things that are offensive or ignorant, like this comment.
