I love this, it’s one thing when a game adds content that ends up affecting the entire gameworld and it’s storyline, like with the various events that have happened in Fortnite, but it’s quite another when it’s tied to players actively triggering said event.Congrats to Clan Redeem for being the first.

Replace the word ‘instance’ with ‘echo-chamber’ and you’ll see why this is only going to be more problematic in the long run. This is the same thing Facebook groups do and it’s proven to be a breeding ground for extremist ideologies. This kind of things is largely why society is so politically polarized these days:…

It’s Discord with a character limit

Sounds kind of like Discord.

I want an edge transit that shoots edge transits.

Oh god my sides, the funny thing is in spite of getting my Nth Edge Transit, I still get a little excited to see what the roll was and swap it out for my existing one to get a feel for it and see if it compliments my play style. Who would’ve thought the simple solution to the “how do we make your 10th Legendary…

The worst/saddest thing is that the basketball itself is so good this year.

He’s actually done a few cool indie-ish things. Good Time was very good. I was surprised when I came to the realization early in that movie that he actually did a really great job in it. Lost City of Z was solid too. He might even be *gasp* a decent actor.

Alan Wake uses the “light” to fight off the “darkness” and the “Taken.” Hmm maybe Destiny has been an Alan Wake sequel all along and we never noticed.

Like, virtually all men can have an overreaction (and yeah, I think she did kinda overreact) without it being in headlines for fucking days. Part of that is due to Serena’s star power, but most of that is due to the front-page sexism/racism she’s encountered.

I was an athlete for 20 years. There are certain bedrock principles that we all internalize. Sportsmanship is prized above all in every sport, each thing Serena did would have gotten her penalized, if not thrown out, in every sport, regardless of gender. Trashing your gear is a huge deal, mouthing off at the ref is a…

Excellent quote to reference. Martina has always been a class act and fought stereotypes, sexism and the hatred brought on by being a dominant tennis player.

Did you even read Navratilova’s article? Do you know the rules of the game? Until it’s proven that there’s a double standard, I’d bite my tongue on that claim. I’ve seen FAR more men’s matches where warnings/penalties were issued (and note that I watch tennis on TV damn near every day of the week). And since when is…

Martina Navratilova’s take is far more thoughtful and measured, with this point at the heart of it:

Okay, and here’s all the times he did penalize them:

Then there’s Martina’s take: _{https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/10/opinion/martina-navratilova-serena-williams-us-open.html “}Just because the guys might be able to get away with it doesn’t mean it’s acceptable.”

She lost the game because the other player was better, not because she was throwing a fit about the ref.

Most refs don’t make this call. But this ref DOES consistently do so. And he has taken on many men in similar circumstances. You can search for his interactions with Djokovic.

The umpire was a dick, but he’s a pretty consistent dick (to the great men’s players as well), and Serena came back to yell at him about the same issue 3 separate times before calling out the tournament umpire and WTA ref. What was she hoping to gain? If a basketball or football player went off on a ref because of an…
