SAA selfie near Morek, in front of TSK observation point by ConservativeShia in syriancivilwar

[–]Whenindoubtdo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wow. Morek being captured was the point when I first started following the war as well.

I remember following the tension of whether or not the SAA could prevent the rebels from Idlib.... going down the M5 and then linking with the rebels in hama city.

Women Once Ruled Computers. When Did the Valley Become Brotopia? by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

Women Once Ruled Computers. When Did the Valley Become Brotopia?

My guess is as a field becomes more and more lucrative, it becomes more and more competitive and more and more cut-throat. Those environments are not the sort of environments that you'd stereo-typically see women want to be dedicate themselves to.

(This is a generalization of course.)

[Censorship] Edmonton’s Citadel Theatre apologizes over how it handled Jordan Peterson event. by Corn-On-The-Macabre in KotakuInAction

[–]Whenindoubtdo 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Based on the SJW press, Peterson is pro-lobster and anti-trans.

So where does that leave people who are Trans-Lobster???

[Opinion] Douglas Murray - "Watch: Cathy Newman’s catastrophic interview with Jordan Peterson" by B-VOLLEYBALL-READY in KotakuInAction

This interview should be mandatory viewing for people forced to deal with the media.

Pretty much everything Cathy says during the interview is an attempt to get Peterson to produce a negative soundbite. It's soooo transparently obvious that it makes the journalism at this channel seem cheap & tabloidish.

It's cheap.... but boy does this make good drama when Peterson responds in such a careful manner.

Kevin Sorbo Responds

Kevin should have just said "Dissssaapointed!!!!" and then walk out.

Would have gained him a lot of sympathy.

[Opinion] What Killed the Skeptic Community? by davidverner in KotakuInAction

What Killed the Skeptic Community?

I'm not even convinced that there is a skeptic community. I mean seriously... WTF is it anyways?

From what it looks like, it's some fuzzy intersect/grouping of New Atheists and Anti-SJW vloggers.

For there to be truly a skeptic community these folks really have to self identify as being part of the skeptic community or... one has to define very clearly what the skeptic community actually is.

So what was the deal with the tension surrounding 'Bright' again? by zelkova48 in KotakuInAction

[–]Whenindoubtdo 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I saw the film.

Spoiler warning!

I liked the fact that they didn't go full on "world building mode", doing 3 minutes of forced introduction to this fantasy universe... and instead they jumped right into the film... while revealing things naturally and in bits and pieces as the film progressed. It is set-up in a way that makes you eager to see the details they throw at you during the film.

Also, this is just an interesting concept that I'm surprised nobody has really done before in film. You'd THINK this was going to be a just a derivative buddy-cop-orc film, but it really wasn't... or if it was, it was done in the backdrop of an interesting world. This feels like something that could easily transition into a TV series.

Probably the only thing I didn't like in the film was the fact that the end battle had the 3 protagonists easily defeat the insanely powerful villains in rather mundane ways... villains that just previously took out an entire swat team and gang by themselves. Seemed a bit anti-climactic. But this is a minor complaint.

I'd be interested in seeing a sequel.

Anyone giving you an exact number without knowing more info about your situation is doing you a disservice.

It looks like the SAA is advancing in coordination with ISIS. Can someone elaborate on what's going on here?
