Thank you. Was going to comment there but since that thread is a day old I'll say it here.

I've seen a disturbing trend of redditards trying to pretend as if this kind of censorship is, and I shit you not, because of "puritanical Christian groups." It's like they know it's bad but desperately try to convince themselves that their retarded mind virus isn't the cause.

The Japan equivalent of an ESG check is unfortunately just an ESG check. I work for a Japanese company and they have a whole team designated as those responsible for ESG. I guarantee it's just for show, but the fact remains that it exists.

Edit: I should clarify this is the Japanese branch. You'll find relatively little mention of ESG at the American branch, but in Japan there are posters on the wall in the office detailing their ESG commitment.

Several weeks ago, I was upvoted quite a bit for saying the exact same thing: that I think she has potential. Not that she was a GOOD character, that she CAN be good and they won't let her be. But now, I get downvotes?

I have no dog in this fight but this earns a downvote from me regardless of context.

It's funny because half the time I open it only to find a comment going with the hivemind. Only to find that the user has posted wrongthink elsewhere at some other time. What a shithole site.

Feelings on that aside, if they just switched it now, they're clearly doing it on purpose for shit reasons.

Personally though, I prefer all common usages of a word be listed.

I was surprised for a moment myself, but then I thought about the types that would vacation/move to the Denmark from the US and its definitely not Tyrone and Deshawn.

If even one person here sees this and shares it with some normie who may still be saved then it's done its job.

Yeah I think the graphics haven't aged the best, but if you're someone like me who doesn't put too much weight on that then they are plenty good enough, just a bit dated.

And ahh, sorry to hear you didn't like Vesperia. I didn't like it as much as Symphonia but I still liked it a good bit. I never delved into it more deeply than a single playthrough though so there may have been more good stuff I missed.

Not entirely sure, haven't played it. I heard the PC port way back when was a little wonky. If all the remaster did was give it a touch up, and if you can still play it with a GameCube controller, I say jump right in, it's an awesome game.

One piece of advice is it's a game where if you are just on autopilot going through it, you will really miss out on tons of cool side quests, optional bosses, entire aspects of the combat system, etc.

I unfortunately haven't touched it in over a decade, but several playthroughs over 2004 to 2013 burned all that stuff into my head. Thinking back, so many of my favorite parts of the game, whether they be sidequests or simply little character interactions are completely optional and therefore missable. There's gotta be some guides out there that can tip you off to some things without spoiling stuff if you aren't against not going in 100% blind.

Tales of Symphonia is my favorite game ever. Rest in Peace.

I feel like most people hate their own voice. The most common reaction to hearing recordings of oneself seems to be "What the hell? I sound like that?" Probably only because it sounds different coming out than it does coming back.

Sure but then it's already happened. If I had a hot celebrity girlfriend I wouldn't want her getting groped and touched by dudes who are drooling over her. Overall these conditions are psychopathic but it's hard for me to find much fault in that one so long as she isn't ridiculously strict about it.

The dude isn't going to get physical with a female fan over a momentary grope or grab.

I know how Bitcoin works. Did you think I thought he just conjured a statement about carbon footprint out of nowhere for no reason? The point is that only leftoids and retards use that as an opening salvo to shit on it, because if you wanted to shit on it there are other ways to go about it. He is very much framing it in an "I'm a leftoid that wants to shit on bitcoin" sort of way. The wording gives it away; a normal person would make essentially the same point with different wordings.

There is some wisdom there, but leading with "obscene amounts of carbon" outs this guy as a run of the mill reddit pseudo intellectual.

Gold can be valued in non-currency methods, such as miles of gold cabling, pounds of gold plating, and actual gold coins that you can just put in a suitcase and fly around the world.

Hahaha so some dude mentions he shits on bitcoin for being valued in USD but things like gold are also valued in USD. And he responds by saying gold can be valued in other ways, like miles of cable, or pounds of plating...in other words, effectively in mass of gold which then is tied back to currency in the end. This guy is retarded.

He then delves into more legit explanations like immutable values that gold has as an element, but this is the creme of the crop when it comes to the thinkers of reddit. Some decent points littered in with complete and utter retardation.

I'm as anti-vax as they come, but I think at least a decent chunk of long covid is simply placebo created by fear mongering from having covid. My mother didn't get the vax but had "long covid" for a couple months.

I've seen more women's sports on TVs in sports bars over the past year than my entire life combined up to that point. I go back and forth thinking it's intentional subversion and then thinking it's just some retarded executives at ESPN thinking they can double profits if they get people to care about women's sports.

If something happened before they were ten years old, no it didn't.

Unless it can be used as a cudgel against my enemies to get what I want, then it happened and it might have happened even more than it did in reality.

Hmm, most of the time I would say I think he's genuine in that he believes what he says. But he's very clearly shifted his personality over the years to fit what will get him more viewers. He can be useful at times but I'll never see him as anything but a grifter.

What info did this whistleblower come out with? Haven't followed this at all.

What the fuck is with these whacky "den" names for boys? Holden? Seriously? That being said I hope his parents take these idiots for all they're worth.

Dude needs to have some common sense and shut the hell up about it. But damn, people have their priorities mixed up if they will let Biden, or someone just as bad, who would push for forced vaxxing, win just because Trump has a bad blind spot on the issue.
