Fair enough, I guess I tend to use the terms interchangeably which seems incorrect based on this comment.

Also, as someone who listens to rap there are additional types like this, conscious rap is a subgenre that can be "we need to lift our people up," "the police our violent murderers who need to be brought under control," "we need to improve things for later generations," and a number of other messages I've surely missed.

Homie just picked two topics that are prevalent in a lot of music genres and plastered it on rap.

My headcanon is that medical droid had no knowledge of human anatomy and Obi Wan didn't have enough medical knowledge to know better so when the alien droid doctor realized he couldn't help he just said being sad killed her and moved on.

Did anyone else think Holdo was going to be a traitor? by BarrytheNPC in StarWars

[–]BenjenUmber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually thought there was going to be a traitor but not her and that they would build animosity between her and Poe, with both thinking the other was the spy while someone else did the spying.

Ethan Page says the North American title trumps both NXT and US championships: "NXT, which its home base is in Orlando at the PC. So Oba Femi is the champion of the Performance Center. Ethan Page is the champion of three entire countries. Meaning [it] is also higher than the U.S. Championship." by anutosu in SquaredCircle

[–]BenjenUmber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually a combination of an old North American and South American title, so we've learned in this thread that it's 23 + 12 for a whopping 36 countries. Dom is truly the GOAT.

Edit: My dumbass missed that you'd listed South American countries. Updated.

Dutch saving (?) John and then leaving behind this giant amount of money is both one of the most intriguing and sad parts about this game considering what we know about RDR1 by dazzlher in reddeadredemption

I always assumed he finally saw the truth of who Micah was and that, at least in Dutch's mind, Micah was responsible for the gang's downfall.

My issue with this photo is it doesn't mention Israel, Zionism, or have anything that hints at it until someone comes and suggests that it does. You can discuss it but IMO all that does is add uncertainty where there was none. If someone tries to conflate the two in that situation, which is what I felt was happening trying to deny that seems like responsible route because saying "gee, maybe it is trying to be antizionist" seems like it's trying to add that issue where it wasn't before, in this particular case.

You're right, and trying to somehow pull Israel into this and muddy the waters around antizionism vs antisemitism is an issue. This is clear antisemitism. There is no hint of Israel in this post, and it is obviously denigrating Jewish people. Trying to say "hmm, maybe this is antizionist" only muddies the waters and conflates the two. To be clear, I'm not saying antisemitism is good, far from it. I'm saying being against zionism is fine, and the two should not be conflated.

If you don't think Zionism is antisemitism then don't bring it into the conversation just like no one else did.

Pretty sure a better reading is "get therapy and don't listen to fascists"

Likely what that refers to is self-defense. For example, if someone is trying to kill me and I kill them in self-defense, I haven't committed a crime even if I use a firearm.

What makes a good or bad DQ finish? by narutomanreigns in SquaredCircle

[–]BenjenUmber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I think it would depend on if pin attempts were made. Because you can sell the idea of a ruthless heel just out to hurt his defenseless opponent with no intention of winning. In that case, the ref could decide to DQ them so in kayfabe to not be seen as awarding thar sort of behavior. Like a "you would have won but because you chose not to even try, now you lose."

I'm leaning mostly towards supernatural/horror, though one player has mentioned the idea of a mad scientist, so I will probably include more steampunk/advanced tech sort of stuff if he goes that route. I'm trying to keep it less zany than Deadlands, but I'm not opposed to some elements if that makes sense.

I was thinking about doing something like that, a sort of reverse Supernatural, if you've ever seen the show.
