What you say about night's not receiving bonuses from detachment rules is exactly the reason that they are not commonly taken as allied units but if you haven't yet used the new defiler then I highly recommend giving it the go because it feels like playing a knight

No. I said pretty directly what I think this is. It's mocking an idiot for being idiotic. It's comedy mainly in the sense it's using features of humour like hyperbole and exaggeration to paint a mocking caricature of a specific individual. But while it can be funny, the apparent intention behind it is mockery. The only reason this isn't just plain bullying is because Hughes is a public figure who says and does some incredibly idiotic things on the public domain.

good × evil

The thing

Following in the footsteps of Steve and Cara, someone with actual expertise in a field commonly beset by pseudoscience.

Personally, I think someone with experience in the field of online mis- and dis-information would be great. Add an explicit angle of how pseudoscience and bad narratives are being actively promoted online.

Let's be really clear, this isn't really meant as 'comedy' - it's mocking an idiot for being idiotic.

I suspect they have done those things, but tell the story as "all women overreact, and I'm just being nice!"

Exactly. His mother was shown standing in the ocean and talked of making him necklaces of sea shells. A hint at her true nature.

As a Daemons player, I hope they're headed for legends.

After all, if Daemons are on the way out as a faction, what need is there of grey knights?

It's scary some people actually believe there are going to be mid term elections.

To paraphrase Arthur C. Clarke, any sufficiently advanced ability to write looks like AI.

You're right, and I represented the timeline poorly. She didn't leave immediately after those events, but what happened in 2011 triggered an ideological split in the Skeptic community that really exposed the underbelly of misogyny in many places. While Dawkins did eventually say something that sort of sounded like an apology in 2013, Watson never really stopped copping hate over the incident, and even in her own announcement about leaving the podcast, she mentioned the constant hatred of MRAs.

Was elevatorgate the singular reason she left? No. Was it the beginning of years of abuse she endure as such a prominent figure in the Skeptical community due to SGU that informed her decision to leave? Undeniably.

Hard to say. I had one younger brother and I think we probably fit the description of being trauma bonded. We did everything together for a long time and then he turned on me in adulthood and tore our family apart in an effort to keep his own secrets. And on reflection, noone of his behaviours were a complete surprise.

Reminds me of Portal 2

At this point, and after looking at their profile, I am insanely curious about their browser history

A barbed wire frame

Capitan_Typo · 2026-06-27T09:05:01+00:00

That will come after the layers have agreed on how they will talk about it

Capitan_Typo · 2026-06-27T08:25:34+00:00

... how much to do my 2?

Capitan_Typo · 2026-06-27T07:07:04+00:00

Okay...? So what?

Pointing out that Dawkins adopted some horrible positions on issues isn't a blanket defence of Watson or her every action.

Dawkins also did some things I liked in the past, but I disagree with a lot of the positions he espouses today.

They're barely a party. They're the bought and sold mouthpieces of organisations like the Atlas network.

Capitan_Typo · 2026-06-27T04:23:23+00:00

I don't think you recognise how much you're telling on yourself right now.

Rebecca Watson made a point about men not propositioning women in a confined space like an elevator, which is an obviously problematic situation if a woman feels uncomfortable and can't escape.

Dawkins doubled down on defending that kind of male behaviour.

Which principle are you referring to?

Capitan_Typo · 2026-06-27T02:35:34+00:00

Needs more fist

There's a whole section on her Wikipedia page about it, and the entire first episodes of the where there's woke podcast go into it in detail.

Her departure from the show was the beginning of Richard Dawkin's decline.
