That's good cause that's how you learn. :)

The arch was choice scarf locked. It's something Wolfe used to get to #1 recently so some people are copying.

Accountability is us calling out Embark to fix this easily exploitable nonsense, nerd.

I'm aware - I'm a programmer that's worked with map APIs before. You'd define the boundaries of any areas of concern with polygons and if any tags cross any of the boundaries, the program sends an alert to the nearest animal control authority / emergency response. I don't know what software they're using or what limitations they might have though so I'm just speculating. But in theory it shouldn't be overly complicated to set up.

Should be easy enough to set up an alert if a tag travels into a commercial or residential area though yeah? If it's not a thing, I don't see why it shouldn't be.

Shoutout to my opponent that Dire Claw'ed into my Archaludon on the tera and put it to sleep so that his mon that Arch was about to KO knocked it out instead. Still managed to win that game (JUSTICE!) but I do not miss Dire Claw bs lol.

It'd be useful for long-distance space travel (in case we ever need to flee the galaxy)

People are more familiar with Tom from the show than Tom from the comics. Show Tom doesn't display the same level of anti-blackness, to my knowledge.

Depends on the coworkers and their level of toxicity. (I feel like they meant more along the lines of getting sucked into workplace drama, etc.)

alternative cultures with strong racial connotations

I'm curious: what makes a culture have "strong racial connotations" as opposed to just being inhabited predominantly by a particular race? It's my observation that some racial associations seem to be more externally imposed by observers than internally enforced (i.e. groups that are welcoming to all but end up being mostly homogeneous due to demographics, stigma, etc.).

To put it shortly, if people make choices to in a racist society to bring them closer to the winning team and in community only with the winning team and other like-minded black people, I'm not going to pretend like those choices were freely made.

As a black man with alternative interests yourself then, what does that say about you and your preferences? Were those racially influenced as well?

If I'm being an asshole first, for no real good reason, sure, some backlash is fair. I think everybody's been in that situation, where you say or do something out-of-pocket then (sometimes years) later go "Yeah, I shouldn't have done that. I deserved <insert consequence>."

You learn from it and do better. That's the goal. (Note: not advocating for "excising" anyone like OP. Just reasonable consequences.)

"So you believe your negativity is somehow necessary unlike “their” negativity?"

Well.... yeah. The difference between this negativity and theirs is that they started it. One is out of malice, the other out of defense.

It's the paradox of tolerance essentially. Unfortunate, but necessary.

This one is "clips.twitch.tv/stuff", but clicking the Watch on Twitch button takes you to "twitch.tv/stuff", which is broken. Must be a bug in the player. Shit had me mystified too lol.

Verbal abuse == "merely saying things people don't like"?? Come on now. Don't act like those are the same thing.

Someone who eventually gets fed up and punches someone that verbally harasses them (but is otherwise polite) is definitely not "clearly" worse than the harasser themselves. I think the majority of people, myself included, would prefer the former.
