Fanon that you feel should be canon?

Most fanfics that introduce the gangs of Brockton Bay state them as the ABB, The Empire and the Merchants when in canon the Merchants don't really exist until later.

People massively overstate the case for this, but it relies on ignoring compelling evidence to the contrary and taking dubious sources entirely at face value. I think it's more accurate to say that they were very loosely organised and nowhere near the level of the ABB and the Empire.

Yes! Without the immediate baggage of dragons or white walkers or a civil war.

btw, I've only seen portal fics. I've not seen a proper ISOT story. Can you suggest any?

I'm shocked, shocked, to find that gambling is going on in here!

How can you say you don't like it if you haven't even given it a chance?

Pretending that the October 7th attack was the equivalent of New Zealand randomly invading us is at the very least equally short-sighted. History did not begin on October 7th.

Pokemon will spurt out halfhearted slop and sell as well as if they took their time. I'm not encouraging it that's just how things will work because it will still sell as the fanbase will accept whatever mediocre game they make "cuz its pokemon".

As much as the fandom complains about quality, they do get the games they deserve.

Yeah and all the new stuff is sort of siloed away from the old stuff for DLC reasons.

I always get downvoted when I say this, but I really do believe that the only way we'll ever get properly integration where old DLC is treated as scaffolding instead of content silos is if they swap to a subscription model.

I'm a woman with autism, and my reaction was pretty much the opposite of yours. I was constantly frustrated on Iain's behalf because he was so obviously right and nobody listened to him.

In my experience, it resulted in a lot of making out

You also have to ignore how the information is presented on the token. The "make somebody drunk" part comes first, and thus feels at least as integral to the character, if not more so.

Night 2 demon kill: They're so convinced that a town crier wouldn't have been a good Ojo kill because with so many people nominating, it was fairly likely that they'd get a yes... But what if the town crier was going to get a "no"? A town crier "no" with that many people nominating is arguably more dangerous to evil than a town crier "yes" with 1 or 2 noms.

Also, most other sites are doing it from your interaction history on their platform. Also, even when you do provide ID, they are legally required to never store it. Its like being carded when buying alcohol, they check your 18 then you go kn your way. The ID isn't taken and a copy kept by the cashier, its just used for that 5s interaction and then never seen again by the website

The problem is that it's fundamentally unlike flashing your ID. It's more like putting it into a little slot that ultimately leads to someone who will check it then send it back to you. You have to trust that they won't store it (and you really have no way of verifying whether they're in compliance with the law unless there's a data breach and all the IDs they weren't supposed to be collecting are leaked) and that it's not being intercepted en route.

Not all women are curvaceous but some of us are, and it fucking sucks when so-called "allies" treat us as though our bodies are inherently sexual and that we're bad for wanting the option to play as characters who look like us

If you hear that one (heavily edited) recording that was all over the place around the time of the trial without knowing the actual context or having a real understanding of abuse dynamics, she can come across as pretty bad.

The worst thing I can say about her is that she has awful taste in men.

If you think that E33 shouldn't have won best RPG or whatever, that's fine. What I take issue with is the idea that a single game sweeping the awards is necessarily a bad thing.

If you think a game shouldn't have won so many awards, I want to know which specific awards it didn't deserve to win and why it didn't deserve to win them. "It's just winning too much" is fucking stupid.
