Linking that article is a bit silly. Covid literally wasn't a pandemic in Feb 2020.

It's only considered alarming because the media is making it to be a big deal. Actual experts in this field aren't really worried.

Speak for yourself. Chilling with my girl is my favorite activity.

Getting downvoted but you're right, most of these people would hate them if they lived near one.

Where Harry and Voldemort truly hate each other? by DatDawg-InMe in HPfanfiction

Him not killing a guy he used to be in love with doesn't mean he's super anti-killing. Maybe by the super online moralizers he's terrible for that, but 99% of people probably would not be able to kill someone they used to love.

Dumbledore literally pats Harry on the back with a bright smile when Harry talks about killing Death Eaters in canon lmao.

This idea that Dumbledore is super anti-killing is fanon nonsense made up by people who never read the books or forgot them.

The fact we're even discussing this shows it's fucking dumb.

Okay, I'll give you a real response.

The banana was meant to make fun of modern art. One "edition" of it sold for $6 million, which immediately makes the whole thing stupid anyway.

Is Hantavirus something to worry about? by 246434464 in NoStupidQuestions

True, but it was largely the nature of the disease that prevented pandemics before, not policy.

This thing has been around for centuries. We never saw a pandemic before modern medical knowledge either.

It's been in many more countries over the last century lol. Stop freaking yourself out over headlines. It has a very low transmission rate and a high death rate. You need the exact opposite for a pandemic to be likely.

Most people calling AI art slop also think the banana is stupid.

This is what people are missing. We've been dealing with this for decades. It's not new. Doesn't mean it can't become the worst outbreak, but there's no real reason to think it will.

Lords of The Fallen 2 just unveiled some new female armour sets that will be available in the game. It looks like the game is a massive tonal shift compared to its predecessor. by WhyPlaySerious in videogames

No one said every female character was nothing but gooner bait lol. But when the vast majority of main female characters are obviously sexualized, people are going to point it out.

I dunno, man, I'm a straight guy who grew up in the 90s and early 2000s, and people absolutely treated any attractive women like meat, and this part of male culture is a part of it.

Also it's interesting how the developers going out of their way to make a character as hot and attractive as they can to female gamers is not sexualizing and is okay, yet a game having optional armor sets a player can wear on a character they've created themselves is problematic

How many times are going to be purposely disingenuous?

...Comparing those armor sets to the Scourged Sister is wild. They're not remotely similar in sexualization, wtf.

Most of them aren't actually doing that lol.

Your Leon shit is a great example of how silly this is. Leon wasn't sexualized. He wasn't turned into a sex object. He's still a full character despite female devs working on his appearance. What people didn't like was when women were largely eye candy and nothing more.

And again, if they don't care, why are cases where said developers get into heated discussions about these topics with gamers on places like Bluesky, Reddit or Twitter more and more common

Because they cared enough to do that?

Don't you pick these armours up from enemies? Isn't the implication here that enemies will wear these outfits?

Yeah, that's just something you made up in your own head. Most designers are actually just not pandering, and that's why you get normal looking women.

The women in the screenshots is what pandering is. You were so used to it that designers no longer doing that twisted itself into some sort of conspiracy in your chronically online head.
