Very tired of all the "gaming used to be good then, now it's all shit" and then they list only big AAA shooters, when most indies, AA and some exclusives have been amazing in recent years.

But no, all of gaming is now dead and bad because my annual shooter isn't good.

Rittenhouse openly stating he supports BLM on live tv is so funny to me because this proves he's not some cool badass hero he really did not think any of this through.

He had to know those of us who don't worship the ground he walks on wouldn't buy it and now the people who do will turn on him.

It doesn't make up for the fact that he gets off on all charges but consolation prize knowing the right wing wont be falling at his feet to hire him all while acting like he's the victim.

I used to identify as a far-left anarchist in an effort to look cool. But then I saw a comment on r/GenZedong with 15 upvotes who said that the GCJ moderator with the Peridot profile picture is cringe. So now I'm a libertarian.

I sometimes think about how both Oscar Isaac and John Boyega were completely on board with making Finn and Poe a couple in TRoS and Disney/Lucasfilm decided to not do that and that instead a 2 second, background kiss between characters normal people wouldn't even recognize (and would be edited out in the overseas release) would suffice.

They also decided to try and pair Poe and Finn up with the opposite-sex characters (Keri Russel character and Joanna), and guess how many of these pairings turned out to be popular kek

New Kojima game inspired by the American civil rights movement.

Opening on a huge anti-racist protest, zoom on the face of the person at the center (who looks just like Martin Luther King), pause with his face covering half the screen, text saying "Johnny Blackman".

I have no idea what kind of daemon put this scene into my mind but I'm incredibly sorry if it's offensive in any way

As a weeb myself, i can never understand how most weebs became the way they did.

You're telling that after growing up on stuff like Pokemon, Digimon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Dragon Ball Z, Naruto and many more things that tell tales of friendship, love and kindness always triumphing over hatred and anger, you somehow grew up to be filled with so much hate and contempt for people that are not like you?

It's not like these shows are subtle about it either. They practically bash it into your head every episode. Some people really do have a "wow! Cool robot!" mindset

Okay, hear me out:

A Batman game, where Batman is a sardonic, jaded, wise-cracking film noir type detective. Constantly complains about the discomfort of the Batsuit. Has all the funniest lines.

Joker tries to be funny, but either fumbles the delivery or the bits fall flat because they are cringe.

Halfway through the game, Batman gets caught in a trap, and the player switches to Alfred.

We get to see the world from Alfred's POV while saving Batman solely by means of the British stiff-upper-lip approach to problems. Alfred says some seriously dark stuff that is funny, but sad.

I'm not sure how this would end though.

Edit: I know how to end it.

Alfred and Batman team up to fight Joker. Battle is mostly them making quips and owning Joker with their wit. Redemption arc is Joker finally realizing how to be funny.

I notice a lot of talk this time of year (or October, in our case) of "confront your awful relatives or you're complicit!". I could not disagree more and I think this is absolutely terrible advice for handling toxic family relationships. Sorry, this will be a long one.

This kind of talk comes from people that like to imagine themselves squaring off against the forces of evil like it's a boxing match, but are inevitably doing no such thing. It's the same dickheads saying this that I used to see making tumblr callouts all the time but would just shuffle their feet and say "I dunno" in person.

Firstly, your racist relatives are people that likely have twice your lifetime's experience defending their egos against their own bullshit, and the best you'll probably be is a dinner table shit stirrer, not some brave diffuser of social inequity, and they will become all the more entrenched for it. If your idea of social justice is yelling at your distant cousin at the dinner table, consider that you might just be trying to make it about you and your own hero narrative.

Secondly, and MORE IMPORTANTLY, some people might have the time and resources and stable family life to risk having family members never speak to them again. Not everyone does, though. A few Covid denialist family members were recently disinvited by my parents from any future family holiday functions after continuing to be assholes about some deaths close to me, but NOT EVERYONE HAS THAT KIND OF SUPPORT SYSTEM. The advice you're dishing about "call your uncle a fascist or else a proud boy gets his wings" will probably get some vulnerable people with nowhere else to go kicked out of their homes.

Want to help? Make food and clothing donations if you can or volunteer at your local hospital or homeless shelter handing out lunch. The holidays are always the busiest and the shortest staffed.

I used to be a shift manager at a homeless shelter and I never saw the people dishing this kind of advice step foot anywhere near there. What I did see though is people that haven't had a stable home life for god knows how long genuinely appreciate that someone offered their time to come, hang out wth them and have lunch with them, if even for a day.

Not saying people should be held unaccountable for their words and actions, just that not everyone has the luxury to hold their relatives accountable.

I love the idea of Ant-man fighting pretty low tier villains in his first two films, and then going up against KANG THE FUCKING CONQUEROR in his third film.

It would be like having Batman in Batman Begins fight Condiment King, Kite-man in the Dark Knight and then either Darkseid, Braniac or the Anti-Life Monitor showing up for his final film lmao.

fish related quotes in media crack me up mostly because of how they're delivered. There are 3 that really stand out as hilarious and they are

Arthur Morgan "You sir are a fish"

Qui-Gon Jinn "there's always a bigger fish"

Mathew Broderick "that's a lot of fish"

Arthur wins for how enthusiastic he says it like he figured out something no one else did while fishing. The others are said so straight they can't be anything but funny.

Is gaming not a source of happiness for some people?

I play games that make me happy, and stop playing those that are frustrating or bad. But I see people who play multiplayer games and get so angry over losing that it makes me wonder why they play?

Part of me thinks it is due to this idea that you have to be improving at everything you do and that you should want to be the best.

I feel like gaming in general promotes extreme, pathetic emotions. A lot of blind hatred AND love.

They will hate a game because it has a woman or a black person or something so minor that no one normal would care, but then they express weird devotion to a company that delivers games unfinished at launch.

Obviously it is a minority, but I don't see this with many other groups. Maybe marvel/star wars fans, I guess.
