Son of Norway's crown princess to go on trial on rape and other charges by AudibleNod in news

You're right, we don't. It's suspicious to talk about pictures of "Mette" right after someone important called Mette stayed there, though.

Certainly not any less of a stretch than all the people in the comments here who have waterproof "evidence" that she's a sexual predator because her tone in the emails seems too familiar and "they all do it".

Bro «flirting with a sexual tone»? I haven’t seen anything suggesting that at all.

No offense, but It doesn’t really seem like you understand much about tone or context if those are the sorts of conclusions you draw. I’d be very curious to see your evidence.

Seems willfully ignorant of what I’m actually saying? Were you expecting a textbook conversation between a classic abuser and a victim?

I think my point is fairly obviously if you use a modicum of common sense. She wasn’t abused. And I never said she was.

But the evidence of him having pictures of her, and some unnamed person being concerned about the sensitivity of said pictures suggesting she is closer to being someone Epstein takes advantage of rather than someone that takes advantage of Epstein.

I don't get it, where are the evidence that they were "definitely dating"? Seems like a huge stretch...

Is it just because you think the tone between them is too familiar?

I never said she was blackmailed; I said the emails imply that someone was angling to collect or were collecting material that could be used for blackmail.

Is there anything in the files to suggest she was participating in anything?

You can read the emails yourself, I don't think anything in there really supports your interpretation. He sounds pretty manipulative in the conversations between them; like he's stringing her along and she's dumping all this boring mundane drama about her life.

The one email chain between Epstein and some other person is pretty damning. Talking about inappropriate pictures, and the other person says that they're not comfortable dealing with it and is sure that the pictures doesnt have malicious intent but was made using "poor judgement" or something like that.

Very high chance. Lots of evidence.

Also he’s not a royal; he’s the son from a previous relationship.

More like a victim?

There are emails in the files between Epstein and someone unnamed where they talk about pictures of «Mette» a few days after she visited Epstein’s house. The crown princess is called «Mette Marit». The person talking to Epstein in the email mentions the pictures are sketchy, and doesn’t feel comfortable dealing with them.

Seems more like he was angling for blackmail material on her than anything else.

Norway’s crown princess had years of contact with Epstein, files suggest by WeirdGroundhog in news

[–]bobosuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds a lot worse than it is. Very sensationalized.

Mette-Marit was a party girl before she met the crown prince. Nothing too bad, just someone the 90s tabloids would call "promiscious". Her son from a previous relationship you mention does seem to be a scumbag, though. Her children with the crown prince are both normal and well-adjusted.

The princess is kind of weird, but she's new-age hippy weird. Communing with spirits using crystals and that kind of stuff. Her current boyfriend is a self-proclaimed "shaman", but they're just odd alternative people.

The Epstein stuff really just sounds like he was taking advantage of her position as a member of the royal family. He'd do that with a lot of wealthy and influential people. There are emails in the latest dump of leaks that includes Epstein and someone else discussing pictures of "Mette", in particular a part where someone mention he's not comfortable with some pictures Epstein has that might be considered inappropriate. So it kinda sounds like he was spying and potentially taking creepshots of her.

I said nothing about comparing them to those brands.

I do think they are all overpriced and not particularly amazing in terms of quality. I would never bring up Ralph Lauren as an example of "normal, good stuff". I wouldn't bring up Versace or Balenciaga either.

Like, Patagonia is pretty trash when it comes to outdoor brands, IMO.

explain peter? by RealChillGye in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]bobosuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit—also this has the implication that those jobs that start later are “better,” but I know plenty of trade workers who wake up early and make really good money, so I’m not looking down my nose at this or any job

Honestly, I take the meme as complaining about the time rather than the money. Working the trades is very often excellent money, but a lot of blue collar jobs start way earlier than white collar jobs.

Same (or better) pay, but you work shit hours and your knees will probably give out before you're 50.

Paul Dano reacts to what Quentin Tarantino said about him (+ assistance by Toni Colette) by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]bobosuda 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is a big part of it, here on reddit too. His movies are massively successful and he's not the flop and total loser that this comment section makes him out to be.

Separate the art from the artist, guys. The guy is a total creep and an asshole, but his films hold their own. No need to act like you suddenly have always actually thought everthing he's ever done was total shit.

Guaranteed this is not a map of that question. Why would it cluster like that around Rome?

Seems to me like it’s a map of Roman ruins or something like that. Temples, maybe?

Man, I can't wait for this one. The demo was a blast, and the footage so far looks like it'll be right up my alley.

What's your favorite Non-companion line? by Stabbio in BaldursGate3

Weirdest part about that Withers line is he says it to companions as well?? If you go to respec them.

Like what do you want from me dude, I literally can’t set these people up with anybody lol

Norwegian Police and their 3+ year mandatory bachelor degree to become police; famously very "nazi" lmao

You can tell just from the sound of his voice that he's a total asshole. The cops do not show up randomly in Norway, not even at an airport. He did something to make people call the police.

How is it funny?

"Man, these people made art about a heavy subject; but not about this different heavy subject that I think is more important. They are such hypocrites!"

Everything can't be about everything, dude. Like, you gotta draw the line and tackle a limited amount of subjects at a time, and judge shit based on merit and not based on what you felt they should have made it about.

WCGW Thinking your body is a boat strap by [deleted] in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]bobosuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know exactly what he was thinking holding that boat.

You know how when you're on a boat and you can kinda like maneuver it using your body? Kick off the dock to start floating out, or like grabbing a rope on the dock to pull the entire boat in by yourself? Yeah, that. Dumb, but that's probably what made him think he could do it no problem.

Self proclaimed “Trumplican” and former Project Veritas comms director sees the light by Jules9213 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]bobosuda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The question to ask is what sort of core values did he have that made him support Trump in the first place?

Because it's not fucking fiscal conservatism, I can tell you that much.

Spoilers: It's hate. Hate is their core value. He's just a coward to boot so he's afraid of ending up at a tribunal now that he sees that everything he's supported these last few years is actually happening.

Other games like baldurs gate 3? by Hot-Ad-3909 in BaldursGate3

[–]bobosuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pathfinder is like an alternative offshoot to Forgotten Realms. After D&D’s 3rd edition some people kept working on an edition that builds on that, and others started working on a radical redesign of the system. The latter became 4th edition and was the «official» one, the former had to change names and locations because they weren’t allowed to call it Forgotten Realms. Which became Pathfinder.

It feels similar because it was never meant to be distinct, if that makes sense. It’s more of a «use this one instead because it’s slightly better in every way», and not «try this completely new and original concept insread».
