I want to see that with terms like “Social Justice Warrior” and “Woke” too.

Help them realize what they think of as an insult is…actually kind of a positive thing.

I definitely play a few horny games, and don’t recommend them to anyone. In the other hand, I have actually skipped certain games, and hated some others, because they were trying to tell an engaging story and got hung up on cringey sexualization of their female leads.

As you said, it’s all up to consumer preference. It isn’t just watch-dogging and shaming of sexualization, it’s also that there’s a lot of people that find lazy sexualization to be disengaging and hardly unique. Plenty of the time getting the characters to look unique and interesting is also a challenge; and diversity often helps with that.

This same person will claim that Dead Rising, a series that’s had hot twin sisters battle you with katanas, is not sexualized.

I’ve stopped using my Xbox entirely since Tango Gameworks was murdered.

Problem is, an individual computer user often isn’t the victim of that computer’s lack of updates.

Any time a site you like has been DDOSed, it’s often from thousands of zombie computers infected by some malware that their owners aren’t aware of. Those infections are generally made possible by unclosed security holes. So, you know…not updating.

You can ask him, if you’d like…

The working theory is that he was part of Project 2025, and felt betrayed (as all of Trump’s former supporters have been) when he disavowed himself of involvement in it (as he pretty much had to since it was terrorism).

It’s a stupid pattern. Trump claims he supports X with no plan to support X, then when talking to X’s opponents, says he opposes X; then does nothing either way unless it benefits him. Millions of people are only slowly figuring this out.

Being on a bike makes you closer to fulfilling your impulses. You can get off your bike, and toss that road sign off the street into the grass where it belongs.

Probably worth doing a study on why buses arrive late. I’d expect it’s mainly because of traffic. Which, ironically, is best remedied with more buses.

They interviewed his colleagues at school and they were adamant that he was very much on the conservative side.

I’ve previously been converted off free trials that way. So it can definitely work.

It would be really funny if in the last month of his presidency, he put together a “bit” with a local corner store owner, coordinated beforehand, where he “robs the store” using a wooden gun under full observation of the Secret Service - and then explains the skit to a press conference for everyone who doesn’t get it, and allows a 9-year-old kid with a police badge “arrest” him for committing a crime.

Even Fox was calling out the tone after Trump was shot. They acknowledged Trump himself has used language akin to encouraging violence on many occasions, while the worst the left has done is label him a fascist - a mostly accurate term. Yet, people had been praising those violent remarks while calling out democrats, even after discovering the shooter was a devout Republican.

There is no introspection among them.

If you don’t care about them, don’t police our positive thoughts.

Laughing at hypocritical bastards and the morons who support them is our positivity. It’s not “doom and gloom”.

I don’t even really blame the furries themselves though. They’re not hurting anyone. In some ways I just blame the high phobia of viewing anything they might theoretically find any interest in.

I have a small group of them that I play Final Fantasy XIV with on occasion, and they’re decent guys.

For the past three months, the Republicans and every disinformation campaign has pointed to Biden’s (non-age-related) speaking stutters and 2-year age difference and said “old bad”.

This is not immaturity. This is bipartisanship. We’re just mockingly saying “Yes.”

Let’s…Uh…Fucking Go!

Joe Biden has dropped out of the race for US President, endorsing Kamala Harris. There’s a large disinformation campaign against Biden focused on things like his age, that now have to pivot to finding things wrong with Harris.

On that note, now Trump is only 2 years away from what they said was too old.

As someone who grew up with the Redwall books I’m a bit sad all instances of anthropomorphic animals are met with that thought, which immediately assumes sexual deviancy.

Like, there’s some anthro visual novels out there that seem really cool, get a more stylistic look to each character by being animals, and yet they’re probably more associated to furries.

It’s a lot easier to criticize the Democratic Party if the GOP is first discarded as useless trash and gets no votes in an election. Then we can decide who among our progressive candidates actually has the best approach forward.

Yet I keep seeing this thought assumed, that a 100% blue vote would “give them too much unchecked power”. This is the difference: We have a party while the GOP has a person. A bullet 2 inches to the right would have destroyed their whole movement.

We should remove humans from Earth so that cars can navigate streets without having stupid drivers at their wheel making bad decisions.
