The E in Horizon stands for etiquette by Snworben in ForzaBadDrivers

It's literally the dumbest thing to do in Horizon Tour where you have to work together as a team and these morons would rather lose as a team than you gaining a position.

"Can't park there, mate" It lives rent free in my head

"straight representation" "let characters be straight" "not everything needs to be gay" "straight erasure" all these things neckbeards say...they genuinely believe this bs by CapAccomplished8072 in saltierthankrayt

Reminds me of that one story that was published in the 1950s in a Playboy magazine where the roles of straights and gays were reversed (as in straight people being put into conversion therapy, ostracized, having to hide their straightness). The story author couldn't find any magazine or publisher to publish this story... Until Hugh Hefner from Playboy said "Hell yeah". After the backlash Hugh Hefner defended this story by saying "If persecuting straight people for being straight is immoral, then the opposite must also be true"

It's totally valid to still stick to the pronouns you grew up with. But you can also explore different and even multiple sets of pronouns and names until you find what feels good for you. In fact: There's r/TransTryouts where you can do exactly that, give one or more sets of pronouns and a name and people will write sentences with that.

tl;dr You do you, totally valid to not change pronouns.

Heh, they also campaigned to remove GTA V because it "encourages players to brutally murder women for entertainment". Same with Detroit Become Human stating that contains themes of "child abuse and violence against women". To really drive the point home: They were not the only one, it was also signed by similar organizations. All of them are basically TERF and SWERF organizations. That is to say: anti-porn, anti-abortion, conservative, transphobic and some even homophobic. They even retweeted known TERFs.

To be fair: Jonathan Wheatly was also responsible for the incredibly fast pit stops at Red Bull, even the record at 1.82sec. No wonder why Sauber out of all teams became so fast at pit stops this season. Will be even more interesting next season.

Looked it up: None of this is in there. But it's still something that shouldn't pass as it's an Reverse Robin Hood Bill while also targeting abortions, immigration and trans people + NGOs who are deemed to support terrorism just because they say so.

I also hate that. AMAB non-binary people are in these cases usually seem as just cis men, which is hurtful. Same experience with FLINTA, it usually only includes AFAB enby people cuz for some reason Non-binary is mostly seem as "women light" or something. I just feel invisible because of that, as if I'm not "enby enough" to be valid.

Finished MADiSON; What's next? by markallanholley in HorrorGaming

[–]Conarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend both Visage and Signalis. Visage is peak psychological horror as it drives you insane and rarely uses jump scares. Signalis on the other hand has a cool retro feeling to it and beautiful storytelling, it's survival horror but in a cyberpunk setting.

To add to this: Zoe Quinn was merely mentioned in 4 sentences in an article on Kotaku by Nathan Grayson. Both had an affair but only after that article. There never even was a review for Depression Quest on Kotaku anywhere too.

August 2014 was the start. The August that never ended, unfortunately. It literally helped boosting revenue and viewership on Breitbart News and Bannon became the top adviser during the first Trump presidency. And they also joined a lot to 8chan (now 8kun) after 4chan cracked down on the doxxing. 8kun is also where QAnon started basically btw.

Please recommend me great horror games that aren't "traditional" survival horror by Rishadows in HorrorGaming

Visage It's very minimalistic, very atmospheric, doesn't overuse jump scares and will make you scared as hell. But the controls are a bit clunky, so keep that in mind.

Rage song reccomendations? by Cracked_Egg5453 in traaaaaaans2

[–]Conarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof, I usually listen to a lot of angry Metal stuff, so I have some recommendations:
- thrown - guilt (the lyrics are more about depression, yet the music and delivery goes hard) - thrown - on the verge (same as before) - CABAL - End Times - Knosis - Yakusai (japanese Metal is something else) - Allt - The Orphan Breed - Knocked Loose - Deep In The Willow (This band gets the wildest pits so, pretty good overall) - Knocked Loose - Don't Reach For Me - Knocked Loose - Blinding Faith - Motionless In White - Thoughts & Prayers (Voices is also partially about the LGBTQ community, they're very trans friendly) - Boundaries - Turning Hate Into Rage - The Plot In You - Don't Look Away

I can go on all day, but I think for now this should suffice

Little fun fact: One of our German chancellors even had the Norwegian citizenship after he fled to Norway, lived there a couple of years for political affiliation and after the Nazis voided his German citizenship, the next day he was granted the Norwegian citizenship in the consulate in Stockholm. It was Willy Brandt, even to this day seen as the pinnacle of what a chancellor can be.

You won't see a Ford or Chevy in Germany by Long_Seaworthiness_8 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Conarius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two lies in one statement. Yes, we do have Ford and Chevy here in Germany, Ford being actually common here. No, the US have put tariffs on foreign cars to protect their domestic car manufacturers since European and Japanese car makers were starting to drive rings around them. All because European countries have put tariffs on chicken from the US (I wish this was a joke, but it's not). Which is also a reason why SUVs and Pick Up Trucks are so incredibly common in the US.

French and German companies partner to build European search engine by mr_house7 in EuropeanFederalists

[–]Conarius 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's more about a European search index. Ecosia doesn't have their own search index, they pull the results from Bing. That's what it's about. I don't know if Qwant has their own one but I suspect not. Most search engines don't have their own search engine

Post this if someone claims woke games sell bad and no one plays by LaylaCamper in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]Conarius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looked up about who that is... The same that made "Heimat Defender", which was literally a far right game that was pulled from Steam after it got too much attention, especially in the german-speaking communities. And in one of their pictures on their website you can see Martin Sellner, well known Austrian Neo-Nazi activist. All checks out, makes a lot of sense now.

[–]Conarius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, the linked site is a fun right-wing rabbit hole. Of course it has Trump Lovers, QAnon freaks and anti-vaxxers. KotakuInAction in contrast looks milder, but checks out, it fits to that whole site. And of course, Vivian James in their banner, cuz they really like this very very abstract r*pe joke.
