diet probably has a lot to do with it (not to mention excellent skin, too), regardless of career choice or success. not trying to make assumptions based on stereotypes, just pointing out that such as omega 3s seem to be more common among the staples.

and tbf, these same skin/hair benefits can often be seen in other…

yes, the seeming complete lack of self-awareness by these types, especially in regards to their own hypersensitivity, is jaw-dropping. as is their mostly constructed, largely echolalic worldview dripping with anachrocynicism- sad, crass cynicism about phenomenons that no longer exist or never did in the first place.

it also happened in the 90s, and the 70s, and probably plenty times more on a pretty regular 20-ish year cycle. basically, just long enough for old people to forget the message again and for younger people to have never been taught it.

that’s part of what makes the conversation so fucking intolerable to me: it’s been…

but if you accept that, you won’t be able to complain. and how better to complain than redefining the boundaries of a word and expecting something to fit said redefinition?

why not both, which is already largely the case? especially now that we’re fairly well and clear of last generation’s (KEY WORD INCOMING) experimental approaches to DLC. many of these experiments failed, and notes were taken by both publishers and buyers. yeah, there will be exceptions but they’re increasingly less…

you missed a rather key nuance there, which i’m sure will come as a shock to many.

this image gets paraded around a lot and is very old, btw. was in that initial period when people still fell for bait like the ol’ ethics in game journalism line. many have since come to their senses.

These aren’t acceptable sources. I’m not trying to be difficult, you just need to provide something that isn’t some Rando Calrissian’s personal blog or an obviously slanted Reddit.

If there was a real story behind any of the things you’re trying to wedge in here, they would have been picked up on. They haven’t been,…

What list? Is this another one of your unicorns? All I’ve seen so far is stuff that others have already summarily handed you your ass on.

Show us the evil social justice unicorns. Again, you can’t.

JFC, did you really think that would be an acceptable rebuttal? Reliable, primary sources. Not a Tumblr post or a Reddit thread. Don’t be denser than a bag of sand, please.

show, don’t tell. we have seen this claim made many times but never backed up, so please, enlighten us. show us actually-similar harassment by those wily ess jay dubs, please, i beg you.

if the contract was illegal, it’s easy to take to court and nullify. literally happens all the time, as most non-competes are in fact effectively illegal. this is especially true for entry-level or similar positions.

here’s how asking for money in court works: whatever you ask for, you will get less. There are exceptions (Hulk/Gawker), but almost exclusively you ask for more than you deserve so that when the number is inevitably negotiated down, you still get what you deserve.

that makes sense, as to how the sequel system got greenlit.

well, they did sell them, but they didn’t sell.

“getting offended doesn’t do anything” is an enormously shitty, and absolutely untrue, lesson.

the word “controversy” kinda needs to die for a while, i think. it currently appears to encompass everything from “minor disagreement over pizza toppings” to “elementary school adds new statue of the pope that shits loudly and realistically every hour on the hour”.
