You’re blaming “liberals” for something that didn’t even happen. Typical conservative. Were you the person who set fire to Comet Ping Pong because you think they eat babies?

I’m just glad those good ol’ boys found out what happens when you try that in a small town.

Considering there have been countless apologies from all sorts of japanese public officials over the years, I’m not sure japan is the petty party here.

I’m totally okay dismissing women using some pretty classic sexism around sports.

Being successful at a sport does not qualify you to talk about larger issues in that sport. Athletic ability does not equate to the cognitive ability to understand ideas and concepts. Sure, she has personal experience for what it took for her to get there, but “the sport is masculine” and “not normal of a feminine…

I wish I could figure out what the fuck you’re talking about.

I might not be as hip to the music of today as I used to be, but Billie Eilish I get 100%. She’s lightning in a bottle and I hope she’ll enjoy a long and successful career.

That was a weird take.

See I just finished the game as well and now that I'm going after stuff like all the Gleeoks, I'm definitely feeling like I hit a ceiling on my weapons. It seems like I keep topping it at around 40 or 50 when I fuse based on power. I guess I need to start finding better weapons to use as a base.

Everyone has a price. If you offered me $100 million, the things I wouldn’t do could be counted on one hand. However, it’s real easy to say this:

I mean, the premise of this film is that a 30-year-old can and should hit on and try to bang a 19-year-old...but it’s ok! It’s not creepy because she’s a woman. So I’m gonna say...no progress, because that was always a thing. Ask the Oneida Limited cutlery company.

Imagine talk radio only the host and audience can share a live multimedia feed featuring videogames, video clips, entire movies, web content and live broadcasts from outdoors. Instead of “call ins” you have a chat and various avenues for the audience to feel seen and heard. The subject matter of the stream is fluid…

It’s hanging out. It’s the TV on in the background, but its centered around one person who you get to know and occasionally directly interact with. A kingdom of minor celebrities doing interesting-enough content but (among the most popular) mostly just being charismatic and enjoyable to hang around with. And each of…

I’m not even *that* old, and I’ve never understood the appeal of streaming. Looking for a walkthrough or hint on how to solve a puzzle? Totally get it. But just hanging out and watching a streamer play? There’s obviously a hook for a lot of folks, but it seems like games are something you could be actively engaging in…

I’m the same way, but apparently the youths love just sitting and watching a stranger play video games and reacting to other stranger’s reactions. I don’t get it but I’ve accepted than I’m now an old and am no longer with it.

I’d venture a lot of the viewers are kids too, or at least teens. I don’t allow my kids to watch YouTube unsupervised in my house, but my 11 year old has lots of friends who don’t live in houses with that rule, and almost all of them want to be streamers, it’s wild.

Ads, subcriptions, and para-social relationships. I’d bet the vast majority of people don’t sit at a computer and watch a stream all day, but instead have it on a secondary device (tablet, phone etc) while doing other stuff. It’s basically Youtube to an extent, only everything is live.

Sorcerers definitely are into ATM atm.

It’s funny, I would consider the things on that list to be idiomatic expressions, sure, but not jargon. Jargon, as Dr. Wilson notes, is exclusive to a professional field, which forms the discourse community (a bit of jargon from my own profession) for that jargon. It is language used by practitioners and not the…
