I mean, I personally don’t feel Taylor Swift is beyond reproach there are things worth criticizing her over.

She’s talked often about her issues with mental health in the past, including suicidal ideation. I do not know if she’s ever disclosed what, if anything, she has and I wouldn’t want to guess at that.

I don’t want to speak for anyone, but the women/men here seem to be saying, it’s a nice thing to have/find out about. It’s certainly not something where they’re making a profile on tinder and go, “Instead of a hickie, I would like one crick in my neck everyday.” or “To relive my childhood dreams of being a flying…

Holy shit.

This kind of makes me sad that Everquest:Next: never ended up working out.

Yeah, honestly, I hear that. I didn’t want to drag this out too far, because I know that it takes up a lot of both of our time.

I will say, there’s a different onus on WoC than on white women to shoulder burdens of social justice more often while simultaneously being erased for it, so while you could say, as you did,…

Yeah, I’m not saying that.

This perhaps sold me on the game in a way no review ever could.

“Fuck if I care.” As in, in this situation, I don’t think it’s a reason to not criticize her. (I do in fact think there’s merit in that discussion, but no I do not think it’s reason enough to dismiss criticism here. )

And check back my first comment, I clearly said I’m glad she did this shit, but I don’t think it’s…

You’re right, she’s not. She’s just a massive personality who only spoke out when things affected her, and now no one is allowed to point it out apparently.

Honestly, Jez’s overall opinion of her is irrelevant to me. Can they come down on her too hard in other areas? Sure, fuck if I care.

Doesn’t mean it’s not right to…

It’s also possible to be a proud woman of color and call out fair weather civil rights activists, who very often happen to be white women.

It’s also completely okay to recognize that this is a good thing, while offering critique. What’s that phrase people say? “It’s okay to love something and also criticize it. That’s…

This needs more attention because I’m tired of seeing other comments buying into the false narrative that she began the #metoo movement.

Patricia can probably tell you this better than myself. But look at where you’re commenting and what articles she writes.

To be fair, neither did they.

Who stole his bottom lip.

I’m going to be honest, I shelved Destiny 2 a while back and I’m not sure if I’ll ever go back to it, there’s just so much on my plate and so many great, for sure, games out there.

oh no.

Your last line “ As a woman who grew up with video games, I am not only misjudged today, but, back then, I would have been misjudged by you.” really speaks to me as a minority.

I think it’s so easy for white boys/men to look back at these times as being so inclusive, but the reality was? It wasn’t. I was a Black nerd…

It appears it’s more like Lucio’s, not including her CD distance healing, and only by attacking.

Back in the early 2000s, I used to go to one in town called Digital Ops. Each computer was pretty much its own enclosed system complete with headset and even side pieces that blocked out the view from everywhere else except the glow of your monitor.

But the thing was, we’d go with friends, have $10 each. Additionally,…
