Your sister named her son after him? You are fucking kidding, right?

I have defended Julian Assange for years. My family admired him. My sister named her son after him. “He just a publisher,” I would argue. “He just publishes secrets that the US government doesn’t want published and that he thinks is genuine.” And this was true. Both Bush 43 and Obama wanted him prosecuted. He gave us…

Big fan of the Xbox controller for first person shooters. The main reason why I purchased it honestly...and also, the servers are more stable. Better overall experience. I also like that I don’t have to pay for backwards compatibility.

You could just say you hate fun.

Yeah pretty weird to be like “Ah I was just a kid when I was emotionally manipulating people into sending nudes to me.”

She really doesn’t seem to address the abuse and coercing these women to send naked pictures. A lot of “I felt trapped” but not a lot of “I was really shitty to these people for no discernable reason.”. The deceit isn’t the worst of her actions, but it’s the only one she’s addressing.

Old Man here 100% disagreeing with you. I am pumped for some new stories in Star Wars that aren’t prequels and aren’t part of the Skywalker Saga.

Why do people need to constantly talk about how PC’s run games better than consoles? Everybody already knows that. It’s such a pointless conversation.

Yes, fuck a free society because folks disagree with other folks.

Twitter banning Nazis doesn’t stop society from being free. It stops Nazis from being on Twitter, you fucking idiot.

Only issue with your comment is at the end where you talk about PC. The sales metrics from people in the know for Play-Anywhere is people are not buying MS’s games on PC. Especially from their shitty storefront.

They should have a responsibility to hand over this woman’s information to the police, so they can track her down/charge her.

Firstly, this isn’t Microsoft’s fault, its the developer of these games. Secondly, you can’t seriously be trying to compare Nintendo first party game resolution and texture quality to top triple-A games... Hint: No Nintendo system can even run a game in 4K.

I’d prefer to be shot in a hospital...but that’s just me. As to the church thing:

I know that I should feel bad about this, but I’m having trouble mustering it up. I’m a terrible person.

Holy cow, are we making an issue out of this? I saw the Beyond Stranger Things episode myself and Sadie was embarrassed, but not traumatized. If you get a job in Hollywood you eventually have to pretend to kiss people you don’t love in real life. It’s how acting works. Quit grasping at straws just because you’re…

That’s.... that’s really the only way to approach analysis in the vast majority of cases. While intent often does matter in some context, creators aren’t god, and can’t really foresee all the possible consequences of their creations. And they often don’t tell us much either. How else would you approach analysis?

Ever…

When writing critically, I’m less concerned with intent than with what a work communicates. Whatever MachineGames intentions were are secondary to what the game actually says in and of itself.

I always game but after work and school work are done, never before.

Ganja might be used interchangeably with marijuana and other terms, but that doesn't mean there isn't a technical difference.
