I guess that’s why it’s regulated as gambling in the US, much like happy meals, trading card packs, loot crates, liquidation pallets, toy blind bags, social casinos, and other MTX which get their full value out of a degree of luck (like, for instance, buying time charges on a Match 3, or buying a vehicle in GTAO for a…

The only form of pizza reheated pizza is superior to is cold pizza. Fresh pizza can be improved, but once it goes cold, then it’s never right again.

It’s not gambling any more than buying a gun to maybe make a few bucks with is gambling. “Real money at any point” and “chances at any point” are not the only aspects that make up gambling, and claiming it is opens a whole slew of unrelated stuff up to a needlessly broad definition. People really need to stop using…

As someone from Italy, who then spent years in NYC, followed by years in Chicago, it isn’t absolutely not pizza.

I mean, no she didn’t. She bilked banks - like any ol’ bank robber - and her friends, who were working normal jobs. The only rich person who actually gave her anything was some Chinese art prick who she scammed a free flight from. 

You haven’t had In-N-Out fries. The worst food item I have ever eaten; as if they were sadness given form. Absolutely god awful. 

Whereas I’m not interested in your attempts to run away from nonsense sayings like “audiences aren’t racist” and “outcomes which work out mean there was absolutely no additional risk at all regardless of the fact that I don’t know what was discussed or how these projects were approached”. It was a contradictory…

You said the general audience wouldn’t be racist. This is obviously incorrect, and since we don’t have any internal dialogue about the risk assessment of those movies before they were made, you can’t say they weren’t risks, only that they turned out going well...which doesn’t mean they didn’t have additional risks…

Wrong. The general audience is racist. They *might* come if it’s built, and again the risk should be taken, but the general audience is still racist, which is a risk non PoC movies do not face.

So the success of those movies means the larger general audience isn’t racist, and there was no additional risk there?

It better be expensive. Not because money makes things better, but rather that considering how wild things get and how massive the scope of the series, it would be a real kick in the pants if they toned it down in any way.

Well that sucks. Do you have any sense of why your levels seem to be uniquely targeted for mass reporting? Best I can tell, Panga, Barb, etc etc don’t seem to suffer the same fate, despite being at the same level of difficulty and complexity. 

It was very clearly the level name. The “Pile Of” makes a “it’s an Earthbound reference” a real reach; as I recall, when he was naming this, he was worried about this exact same thing. If it was mass reporting, any of the other equally hard kaizos would have suffered the same fate.

Pretty much. Somewhere down the value creation chain in everything I use, someone is getting the short end of the stick - crunch, underpaid, bad conditions, you name it, it’s happening in everything I use. Everything. This being the case, I don’t really care anymore about any of this. I’m not going to adversely affect…

Less chat more cat.

The tapioca is not a transparent white color, because being transparent means it has no color by strict definition. It’s clear, ie, transparent. Even stretching it a bit to allow for coloration means that things need to be able to be seen clearly through the substance. The word is translucent.

See, I’m at a crossroads. While I would definitely like to see more representation generally, I have trouble telling specific people they aren’t allowed to take specific jobs because of how those people identify. Now, when it’s something, like, for instance, someone suggesting that she shouldn’t play Harriet Tubman,…

Conversely, I think she looks *exactly* like her mom. 

Hey, you’re not God, or his father. Or his boss!
