What are they supposed to do? You have to look at it from their perspective. You can’t just not do your job because there will always be that small chance that the one time you let a person off easy is the time you got played and they go off to commit a crime. That’s why we have protocols. The blame is completely on…

I had one friend tell me he “isn’t going to bother” with black girls anymore because of one bad experience. He was with this girl for a few weeks and they got into an argument over something and she said something to the effect of “you’re probably just one of those black men who prefers white women anyway”. He said he…

Right now black people are desperate for a hero. You have Kanye the idiot taking up the spotlight and bringing all kinds of negative attention/press, so the natural thing to do is to latch onto what the people see as the antidote. Donald Glover just happened to be at the right place at the right time. It’s a natural…

I’ll never understand this need to “justify” a black dude not dating a black woman. The thinking just seems so backward and tribal to me. As if women exist only as political tools and as if men should only date within their own race. It’s some petty stuff and I usually don’t bother to get into arguments with people…

I do think Gorman overreacted a bit here, saying her life was in danger and being terrified. But I also think it’s somewhat fair to believe that if you’re not used to flying. I haven’t flown anywhere yet and I think if my first trip on a plane involved an intoxicated flight attendant I’d be pretty concerned. I don’t…

On the one hand I don’t blame cops for over preparing when going into rallies like this. On the other hand, these cops seem pretty stupid and the police force in this country is just generally not well-trained. Certainly not trained enough to deal with this kind of situation. They’re like children playing dress-up.…

You don’t simply base the punishment for a crime on the outcome. That’s ridiculous. If somebody cuts the strings on a persons parachute but the person survives a jump because the offender didn’t know about the back-up parachute, it’s still attempted murder. In this case they also seem to be taking into account this…

“Nigga” is not a slur and including it in a list of other slurs is just insulting.

Honestly I think it’s a mistake to try and rope this character into anything political and stamping a “trans” label on them. Rin is simply a trap. The whole trap fetish niche revolves around feminine guys and some people into that genre are totally into the idea of traps tricking unsuspecting people. It’s a trope…

Doesn’t complaining about concept of being “transracial” but not being transgender seem a tad hypocritical? I’m not defending the idea just playing devil’s advocate. But philosophically what’s the real difference? If you boil things down to their basic element of “I was born this, but on the inside I’ve always felt…

It’s only been 100 years though. Long term, the island existed without rats for far longer. The rats are devastating to the habitat in more ways than simply eating some bugs. They’re a problem with nothing to check them. That’s how invasive species work. By removing the rats we’d be allowing the ecosystem to recover.…

Can we just agree that both Taylor Swift and Kanye West suck? They have more in common than they realize. I just wish people didn’t make everything didn’t get so racially charged for no reason.

Because of the cover picture I was imagining this all happening in an old timey setting like the 1920's or 30's and was just nodding along like “yea it must have been pretty back then with all that organized crime.” Then I got to the part with the dates and that threw me for a loop.

If the data collected isn’t too invasive, I wouldn’t mind. I like to go to the movies a lot and if the price could be this cheap I’d save a lot of money. I wouldn’t care if anyone knew how often I went and what movies I saw.

A foot fetish? That’s practically vanilla. This is some shit.

I think he has a point. Some games just do not age well. I’d much rather they spend their efforts doing remasters like FFXII than simply giving us backward compatibility. 2D games are a different beast though as a lot of those age gracefully because the art/graphical style is timeless. And honestly the modern day low…

Iirc each episode will also be much longer and they’re working with the same budget. Meaning there’ll be a bunch of episodes that feel as big as Battle of the Bastards.

Activision owns Blizzard. Destiny is an Activision game developed by Bungie. They’re keeping it all in the family.

Something can be inclusive and not be political. The word political has taken on a lot of ugliness and divisiveness in recent times. And just like we condemn words based on their common meanings (like queer or midget or retarded) I don’t like when people try and slap the “political” label on something just because it…

Milo sounds like a victim of abuse trying to make themselves feel better about their own abuse. Rationalizing it in a way so that he doesn’t feel like a victim. I actually feel sorry for him. He’s not right in the head.
