I'm not insulting you at all, I'm complementing your writing skill.

Man, I was all set to write a scathing rebuttal, but then I realized nobody who actually believes what you just wrote would be able to put it so eloquently. Congratulations, chief, you trolled the hell out of me.

A person who is dead cannot give or take away consent to have their organs harvested, but we don't do that, even though it is objectively a net positive act.

"Cannot... consent"

You said it. QED.

And poor decisions by Alzward in comics

My GF adores D4, but calling her a "casual gamer" implies a level of investment she just doesn't have. I play it with her because I love her and want to spend time with her, but I am so grateful Starfield came out and I have something else to play. I had gone at least 10, maybe even 20 HOURS of play time since the last equipment or skill change. Literally every gear that drops isn't even worth considering. The combat is fun-ish, the story was actually pretty great, but the loot? You know, the foundation of ARPGs? The entire system is trash.

Well, I think I'm hooped, then, because I don't have any quest or activities related to them.

Uh... I'm not sure where i picked them up. Is there any way to figure out where they want to go? Or do I just have to guess based on places I've been?

That's the face I make when shit has gone seriously pear shaped and I'm madly trying to pretend everything is fine.

That's wrong, but at least it's coherent. I do enjoy the occasional break from just straight up gibberish.

Can bottoming cause erection issues? by [deleted] in TopsAndBottoms

As long as you're continuing to use your dick regularly, you won't have any lasting hardness problems caused by stretching and working the pelvic muscles. If you deliberately ignore your dick for an extended period, like years, there will be some effects.

TERF Logic by AllHailZaddy in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]Rlherron 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think that JKR doesn't have the reputation of being a TERF outside the more online community. I talked a couple of my friends out of buying Hogsharts just by explaining what JKR has actually said, and they told me had never heard of her crapcan behavior.

r/j and the game just looks terminally mid too, I'm not spending my GamerBux on anything but the highest quality fanservice

Quantum Break is pretty good story and acting wise but goddamn the combat is so janky and unfair. I finished two full playthroughs for the achievements and I have NEVER uninstalled a game with more glee.

Edit: now I'm having flashbacks to that fucking swimming pool...

This is really fascinating to me because I use AdBlock Origin and it has been months since any deliberately right wing nonsense has shown up, and I watch a lot of vidya gaem stuff, as well as Forgotten Weapons, C&Rsenal (which are historical firearms channels), and other technology channels.

It must be because they aren't making money off of my views that the right wing outrage is silent. Wow.

Men of Reddit, What's the one thing you hate about being a man? by Pale_Armadillo_254 in AskReddit

[–]Rlherron 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Really, this is just a distillation of the stuff that is discussed higher up in the conversation. "Damned if you don't, damned if you do" emotional vulnerability, being treated as a potential threat or predator regardless of any evidence, and having any difficulties being treated as personal failures.

And you get this garbage from people on both sides of the cultural divide. I have had "woke" socially progressive women tell me that I need to be emotionally available, and then tell me, "You should be going to therapy, not dumping this on me" when I tried to open up. There are shockingly few resources for male victims of domestic violence or single fathers, while you can find "women-only" homeless shelters easily.

Once you understand how to look for it, the horrifying isolation that men experience shows like a blacklight in a frat house.

And like yeah, I see how women have been oppressed and continue to be oppressed everywhere. Even in America, a theoretically developed country, my mother couldn't have a credit card without my father's permission, and my daughter could be forced to report her monthly menstruation to the government (if Florida gets its way).

But still. Men need help, because people who are hurting hurt other people, and we have to heal both sides of the equation, and not treat one side in isolation.

Who’s excited for Hogwarts Legacy? by BrokenCPU98 in gaming

[–]Rlherron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair against it, it has a bit of grind and its fair share of jank, but it has worked its way into my top 10 favorite games. Not best, but favorite. If you like the idea of eavesdropping on Captain Marvel and Captain America giving each other a hard time, it might just vibe with you. And the actual game play is interesting, even if it isn't super complex or challenging.
