Y’know, part of the series premise is that Link is repeatedly reincarnated. Link has been shorter and taller, had red hair, had different facial features, etc.. Gender and ethnicity are just other features that they have every excuse to change up.

The problem is the experts never said that. What happens is one or two studies will find some small link, and the experts involved inevitably say more research is needed and the relationship is not necessarily causal, and journalists have no idea what the f*ck that means because they majored in journalism—but hey,…

Use safe toys, kids!

Re: that Cloud: Something is weird about it to me. He has the same generic, supersoft bishie face as always but there’s huge overemphasis on the arm muscles. Makes it look like the head is on the wrong body.

Dude, all fiction has the potential to affect people’s actions in real life, and writers and content creators have to start being responsible and acknowledge this. Look up the satanic panic, what happens to pet markets when a new kid’s movie comes out, why UFO sightings went from 0 to near-constant in the united…

Ooh ooh! Don’t forget the problems with sexual harassment, child sexual abuse, and human trafficking!

I’m a bisexual woman. I point that out because theoretically, the nonstop bouncing boobs should be aimed at me, too... and yet I quit watching anime, because fuck that.

This game is excellent and (I feel the need to point out, like the snobby hipster I am) came out well before Undertale, just not on Steam.

Why are people like this? Why are GAMERS like this? What is with the continually spreading skin-rash of textwalling faux-deep dudebros who think they’re the only functioning brain in the room because they don’t buy remakes/play PC/are slaves to this or that manufacturer/have a better fucking video card than you/insert…

I don’t get it. If I’m reading you right, you added the definition of “career” as an argument that making youtube videos isn’t one. But I can’t for the life of me figure out what part of it contradicts that very definition. A lot of these people have been at this for a long time, have built these huge consumer bases…

Nah, they actually do make shinies way easier even without the charm. I was able to get a shiny machop surprisingly quickly with the chaining method (went through 280~ calls, which is chicken feed compared to regular shiny hunting.)

Now why would you take a perfectly good eldritch abomination and say that it’s just a pissed-off porygon? Seems kind of boring and pedestrian.

I know it was 2001, but oh my god that character looks like a douche.

Hax.

One concern is that it tends to punish the customer without significantly slowing down the pirates; you can permanently lose access to something you bought, or have a fiddly and jacked-up experience trying to use it, while pirates are simply delayed.

Took me 282 machops to find a shiny one. He is now my new best friend.

I would argue that the conspiracy theory is not exactly built on nothing. Cops in the deep south are notoriously awful. People have very good reasons for not trusting law enforcement whenever a person of a minority group is involved.

Bud. If you elect a candidate who uses his power to get away with sexual assault, you are legitimizing that action.
