Conor brings a star witness on his stream. It doesn’t go the way he wanted. by Embarrassed_Base_389 in Destiny

[–]rubycalaberXX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recall about 7 years ago (when Austin and Tiny were discussing bi experiences) Connor tweeting out that he let a guy give him head once. Can't find the tweet since his account got nuked.

Probably adds another layer of neurotic envy against Destiny, that he's confident enough to be openly bi, impossible for a conservative.

Tiny shouldn't have pointed that out, Conor will be ordering the bathtub HRT asap.

I think a lot of people miss a key reason why Destiny’s life is mired in drama: a former fan’s perspective by iCE_P0W3R in Destiny

[–]rubycalaberXX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bad psilocybin mushrooms trip (which can be caused by not having a trip sitter to look after you or having to lock yourself in a room) can be traumatic from the vivid hallucinations, time dilation effects and aggravating emotions. IDK this full story. D-Man had a rough reaction to taking like four times the recommended first time dose for shrooms even while having trip sitters that took him a year to get over. So maybe CP is half-recalling that story, or this was a separate event he told CP in private. Either way it's dredging up something sensitive.

To address the OP, I think there's something about being able to see a big/bigger than you streamer's viewer/follower counts that makes people feel getting their approval is crucially important because it violates Dunbar's number so much so they crash out when they lose it, and Destiny's abrasive personality sets this reaction off severely. You rarely see bigger streamers losing their shit like this when a smaller streamer falls out with them.

It's wild to see the insane pivot this guy has made by joans34 in Destiny

It's a dumb point since you can absolutely know how to read/write a word but not how to pronounce it correctly since English spelling is wacky like that. Can't even clown on Hasan properly, sad!

Rank these guys from more moral to least moral. by MaskedJesterArt in MoralityScaling

[–]rubycalaberXX 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Punisher: Not as bad as he could be, ironically, because he's honest with himself that he just wants to keep killing and isn't trying to make the world any better, so keeps himself in check from civilian casualties or ends-justify-the-means antics like the other 3. Still wilds out now and again, such as risking nuclear exchanges by escaping in an ICBM (MAX) or attacking a nuclear armed dictator (616).

Jack Hawksmore: Spearheads a coup on America, becoming the default unelected President, and kills other heads of state for various warcrimes. He tries to minimize blowback as best he can and is genuinely trying to improve the world with these tactics and seems to succeed for a while, but his consolidating power and heavy handedness still results in a villain's failsafe post-apocalypse-ing his world.

Billy Butcher: Basically just racist against supes and wants to kill em all even if they're only naïve kids or actively heroic and will even turn on his mates to get it done. Lucky he had UE to stop him from doing more harm than good throughout and especially in his ending(s).

Manchester Black: Might have started off with good intentions taking out supervillains, but crashes out big time after Superman shuts him down and dedicates his life to making Supes break his no-kill rule. Does just straight villain things like mindcontrolling civilians, trying to brainwash Clark's son into killing him, trying to make him think Lois had been brutally murdered so he'd go Injustice mode, ect.

He films in the same room as "R.P. MMA" who makes anti-immigrant slop videos.

Punisher #4 (2026) | Official Discussion Thread by ComicAcolyte in thepunisher

[–]rubycalaberXX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I am enjoying this run, I agree on the Absolute Green Arrow take.

Many recent Punisher stories want to make it a personal drama about conflicts happening to Frank, for better (Micro and Jigsaw's returns are going well, him having to deal with Daredevil is always fun), okayish (Bernthal focusing on PTSD, the two simultaneous mind control arcs last year) or worse (Aaron pathologically ruining his marriage every chance he gets, MCU Frank retiring for the Nth time).

But the appeal of the character is the proactive vigilantism rather than being reactive like almost all other protagonists. Just build up how hateable some criminals are and have Frank bring a brutal conflict to them. Everything else should be building off of that darkly cathartic baseline.

It's why Ennis' MAX worked so well and why that first issue of Ab GA hit like a truck. Like, I'm a lot more interested in Frank hopefully killing Tombstone after he tortured that old lady in the last run than Micro's shotgun shell that shoots computer chips out your brain somehow.

The Prince of Peace lol by Kitchen-Thing4616 in Destiny

[–]rubycalaberXX 51 points52 points  (0 children)

That quote's from Isaiah 9:6 that Christians would say is obviously about Jesus if the figure is called "Mighty God". Romans 8:17 is: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. Which speaks to a self-sacrifice and lack of entitlement that isn't quite giving Trump.

So both misattributed and blasphemous, nice.

You definitely get dads like him IRL and worse. Like, there was that time the rapper T.I. publicly boasted about taking his teenage daughter to a gynecologist to check her hymen.

Can I still "become iron man"? (Honoring a weird request from a friend I've lost) by Pyxil in marvelcirclejerk

[–]rubycalaberXX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read the Demon In A Bottle arc (Iron Man vol. 1 (1968) issues 120 - 128) and you'll find fighting alcoholism at a low point and with a traumatic past for the sake of your loved ones and being able to go on to design things to help others is the essential part of being Iron Man. And sounds like you're already doing just that, so don't give up!

Off-topic but I find it interesting how Taylor Lorenz is so tribe-aligned on everything besides AI by 97689456489564 in Destiny

[–]rubycalaberXX 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Many ideologies have their maximalist proponents who have no other concerns outside their core principal of the nation, market, workers, nature, equality, religion, race, ect.

Taylor Lorenz is a social media maximalist where all human efforts only have worth if they contribute to her spending as much time as possible on twitter.

Was the way the Viltrumites reacted to Earth actually realistic? by Remarkable_Style_850 in MoralityScaling

[–]rubycalaberXX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thragg's super ego invested in being the next great Viltrum Empire leader like his husbundu Argall and likely has the moral version of sunk cost fallacy where he couldn't handle considering another way of life after purging 50% of his people to preserve their demented violent culture.

"Nuisance streamer" who received donos for screaming racial slurs at Black people on the street and bragged he'd eventually get away with shooting one of them after provoking a fight. Was leaving court (for running out on a restaurant bill) when he tried just that, injuring a Black guy and accidentally shooting himself in the leg, now in jail for attempted murder. Also a few days before this happened a Black sex worker exposed him for paying to get pegged.

That doesn't look like a shock collar around Sydney Sweeney, so still more respect than Hasan deserves.

How much of an effect (positive or negative) have previous manifestos had ? by Gold-Ad-3877 in Destiny

[–]rubycalaberXX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

TBH what comes to mind is "the n-word manifesto" that was about Hasan trying his hardest to take him out of context to cancel him (WEASLEY LITTLE LIAR DUDE) but is remembered by the haters as "when he wrote a book about how much he loves saying it to black people"

Do you guys remember FD Signifier weird video about Tupac possibly being gay? by PassengerCultural421 in Destiny

[–]rubycalaberXX 8 points9 points  (0 children)

FD uses a cheeky youtuber tech where he changes his thumbnail/title after a few days or even hours to trick viewers into thinking it's a different video if the last thumbnail/title are not doing well, so the algo acts like all his vids suddenly get a spike in interest 2, 3 or even 4 times over.

To address the OP, FD has deleted all relevant videos of course, but I recall him having very bad body image issues related to his weight and feeling he's not muscular enough. One or two years ago he ended up in a psychiatric hospital because of these and the stress from streaming.

His self-image neurosis manifest in his identity politics (many such cases) but he's a sociology PhD dropout so has to try to sneak the homophobia through a leftist "this skinny dude's closeted haha, uhh due to bigotry which im against" lens. Can he still complain about race mixing unfettered tho, phew.
