It’s a bit old, but here’s some insight into someone who truly believes that white (read: white male) should be the default for all stories, and it’s every bit of awful that you’d expect:
YES! Though I did manage to get PotG as Mercy one time, when I revived two teammates, healed and boosted the rest. It was glorious. But another time, I revived FOUR teammates at the same time, and I swear I would get it... but an opponent Bastion got it. Yup.
Wow, sounds like the same guy I’ve encountered. Yes, please mansplain to me how I should bask in the glow of any attention given to me by a man, whether unwanted or not. Then dick has the nerve to call me a fat bitch when I don’t graciously accept his offer of a drink after my friends and I try to ignore his rant. Get…
Glad I could help! This kind of “logic” really only shows up when people want to make excuses, instead of questioning and thinking critically.
To which I would reply: Under that logic, Daisy Ridley shouldn’t be paid as much as Harrison Ford in The Force Awakens since she wasn’t as famous, even though she is undoubtedly the lead in that film.
These are book proofs - a rough draft meant for press releases and such. You can see on the cover it says “final cover to be revealed.”
This! It’s mind-numbingly stupid the hoops some games put you through just to team up with friends. Overwatch has been a breath of fresh air.
Nice checklist! Also, yes to all things D.Va! She’s been my go-to and I love her cheeky attitude and kick-assery.
Fantastic observation! Both artists were/are known for their strong work ethic at the peak of their success. It’ll be interesting to see how Taylor does down the road, especially since she seemingly has some business savvy. Lifestyle app, anyone?
Your story made me super weepy (at work!). I’m sorry you had to go through that. That’s terrible and unacceptable behavior. I’m so happy you’ve found a wonderful OB, though.
Something about food makes certain people irrationally passionate about telling others the right and wrong ways to eat. Assholery knows no bounds. I’ve had multiple (!) lectures from (white) guys about “authentic Asian cuisine.” I’m fucking Vietnamese. Stop telling me the “proper way to eat pho,” that shit runs…
I agree, it’s not great PR. But I can see it as a “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” kind of situation. If they chose not to say anything at all, and it comes out later... I can see the headline already: Vegan Restauranteurs Secretly Meat-Eaters!!!!
Thank you! I have family in the Mekong Delta who live in organic fruit and veg splendor, and people in that village would do anything to have access to healthcare available in America.
