You’re missing my point.

If Sandy Hook wouldn’t change their minds on guns, no amount of 10 year old rape victims will change their minds on abortion.   They simply don’t care.  People who aren’t “them” (or in their inner circle of rich old white cronies) don’t matter to them one iota.

When talking about a medical procedure, is it not important to discuss it in medically correct terminology? Saying that the electrical waves produced in the fetus at 6 weeks are a “heartbeat” is MEDICALLY incorrect. Full Stop.

What I’m seeing here is “Fox News host admits on the air that QAnon is a false conspiracy theory.”

For all the hue and cry in these comments about lack of empathy and imagination, there’s not a lot of empathy or imagination in a lot of them. And not enough curiosity to find out more about this woman who’s campaigned for abortion rights since her experience 9 yearish ago (admittedly a detail not here but in the CNN…

This article is not telling the whole story. I read the actual interview. 1. She suffered several miscarriages that resulted in her being hospitalized. In the interview, she stated after a dangerous miscarriage she realized how dangerous pregnancy can be. At that point, she began to support abortion. 2. She was an abo…

This is not the full story, she has been pro-choice since a miscarriage in her early twenties caused her to reconsider her views, and advocated against anti-abortion laws before she needed one herself.

My initial reaction isn’t a nice one. This basic bitch should have known all this before it happened to her. It shouldn’t be necessary for it to happen to her. On the other hand, maybe this basic bitch going on TV is exactly what’s needed to change the minds of people like her?

Is this the same snowflake that had Gawker shut down? He can fuck right off.

Sounds like I should start cooking and selling meth in Wisconsin.

Not just in terms of that but also how US police seems to lack and sort of Federal oversight that stops those who finally get any sort of consequences in one area are able to just hop on over to another jurisdiction and do the same thing there with a clean sheet.

There’s absolutely never a reason for pigs to ever break into a residence with guns drawn having ZERO confirmed intelligence on the situation. This is absolutely on modern day police behavior.

That requires cops to do their jobs and look at those forms before going into “rah-rah” mode, gearing up with military weaponry and pulling out in their 40-ton armored SWAT-mobile.

Just some information to put context behind this story; I was never actually SWATed, but I did go through a 7 year campaign of stalking and harassment over criticism of a Kickstarter scam game, Shroud of the Avatar, which included SWAT threats, 3 days before the fatal SWATing in Wichita, which lead to Reddit having to…

Not hugely. Transphobia and misogyny are broad, oppressive forces, but the combo of transmisogyny is particularly potent. Especially when people of color are involved (guess which women get accused of being trans more often?)

Hurting large numbers of black, brown, and poor people, so they can hurt large numbers of women?  A lot of old, white dicks just got hard for the first time in a long time today.

Counterpoint: the Enix side delivered Dragon Quest 11, which is the most JRPG that any game has ever J’d their RPG.

Final Fantasy XIV Shadowbringers (and later, Endwalker)

I think he's in a good spot for it. But I also think having Nomura in charge of Final Fantasy in the way that he has, has basically stagnated the series overall. In a perfect world, I'd love for Square to do the og Team Silent approach and just have their FF team be a different group of developers for each numbered…

Yoshi-P must have the patience of a saint twice over at this point. I don’t know how he manages to stay sane while dealing with not only the FF14/MMO community but also the heads of SE who are probably badgering him non-stop to add NFT’s, Loot Boxes, and whatever other flavor of the month micro-transactions…
