“How you do anything is how you do everything,”

The last one was Waves forcing subscriptions for their audio plugins. That was a complete shitshow. 

The damage is already done. They have lost the trust of developers and won’t be likely to get it back any time soon.

I think the complaints about having options for pronouns are dumb. I also think removing the mod is dumb. 

Reparations aren’t in any way connected to the economic rights King was advocating for. There is a clear difference between advocating for equal access to economic opportunity and asking for a cash payment.

It seems a little ridiculous to complain about the movie’s representation of trans people when Harris modeled the character on real life serial killers who had the same behaviours. Or are we not allowed to acknowledge the fact that several real life characters had sexual fetishes related to dressing up as women

Really? Can you actually point out anything to show that what I said was wrong? It should be easy for the first point. Provide one thing King said that even tacitly supports reparations. 

Everything about this article is ridiculous.

Nope. But parents also are the ones who have the primary legal responsibility and liability that goes with having the child until they give up parental rights or have them taken away.

I didn’t say that this particular law is making a differentiation, though I believe it should if it does not. I was speaking more generally about it.

I think you’re wrong on both counts. All of the outrage surrounding this that I’ve seen has been focused on young children. There aren’t many people talking about 16-18 year olds. The laws being put in place in Canada about this all stipulate it’s for children under the age of 16.

I’m pretty leery of any adult that agrees to keep a secret from a child’s parents. This obviously isn’t a black and white issue. I think it’s reasonable to say that a 16 year old can choose to use different pronouns without parental consent. I think that anyone who says a 5 year old should be able to do the same is

Nope. That’s BS. There are currently about 20,000 writers in the WGA and about 450 movies made last year and about 560 scripted shows. So there were about 1000 available projects for 20,000 writers. Granted some of those writers will be not working of their own accord, but even if you say that half of them aren’t

This honestly doesn’t look much different from what I would expect a man to pay for child support who made as much money as she does. I’m not sure why this ridiculous double standard exists that women shouldn’t have to pay as much as men do for child support. Given her wealth and earnings this agreement seems to be

I don’t think it’s better at face value but I think it is better in the long run. I think people are far more likely to stop being trolls than to continue with something they consider to be good faith criticism.

What a horrific way to go. That poor child.

Why are people so obsessed with knowing the sexuality of celebrities? It’s none of your damn business. Whoopi Goldberg has addressed this question many times before so why push the issue.

Those are all ridiculous bad faith arguments though.

I said right wing people do it AND they don’t justify their behaviour as being anything but trolling typically. Conjunctions are hard, I know but you’ll get there some day.

That’s not a compensation issue. That’s an issue of oversaturation of writers. Those are two different things.
