Few prior threads I've made on this subject matter:

They're worth skimming to see attitudes and points brought up them for comparison.

This article was very interesting as they're being fairly explicit about their agenda on financial 'equity':

Then there’s the $10 million. It had seemed a smart idea to use the marijuana sales tax to pay for reparations. It’s such a convenient, tidy model that other communities might copy it. That’s the problem, Brown says. “I kind of call it reparations on the cheap. There’s no pain involved. I think it would be a different dynamic if reparations became an element of the city budget—of the core city budget—and the city government was saying, ‘We’re going to allocate a hundred million dollars over this period of time to fund the reparations budget.’” The city’s annual budget, for reference, is about $300 million. “This is just not costing anyone anything. So they’re OK.”

Rest of it doubles down on reparee attitudes. Never enough!

If I was a high school student today with my current socio-political knowledge, I'd definitely look into a trade skill instead of college: skip crippling debt, make reasonable wages, and avoid this cancer.

It's unfortunately hopeless. Lots of faggots support this cretin as an expert, it hasn't changed that much since the beginning.

Worse, like everything, it's strongly divided among party lines: Democrats have a lot of confidence, while Republicans have visibly less but I think it's still about half of them or more in favor.

With the vax and "opening up" or "return to normal", all of this is naturally going to be swept under the rug. I'm pretty sure this news is fairly old, if it's being publicized more in mainstream media, you know they know it's safe to mention these topics or Murdoch & Co. would have it strictly muzzled.

Good post. Saw this on Half-KIA earlier, a link to Bounding Into Comics is warranted here because they covered more of mentally deficient PR manager and attempted damage control - https://boundingintocomics.com/2021/05/27/heavy-metal-magazine-mocks-fans-not-happy-with-new-armored-taarna-cover/

Just to be clear, 'Q' is referring to the 4-chan poster, right? I tapped out of the Q-conspiracy immediately after it appeared and involved fucking riddles. Whole thing seemed too retarded to take seriously.

How did it deprogram boomers? What is 'it', if not forum posts? Legitimately have no idea how that would spread outside extremely niche circles, or have relevance to sentiments the last 4-5 years in any shape or form.

Is any change in public sentiment really attributable to Q?

Masculine face, clown makeup, distorted skin, unappealing severe hair style when not worn down, and in this mod's case, too much sag.

For a horror character she's fine. But in terms of being either attractive or a femme fatale, she's neither, even if better than some of the dreck that comes out these days (particularly big publishers). Lacks sufficient feminity and aesthetical finesse.

I think it's a combination of things:

  1. Type of implants. Rounder ones have fuller breasts.
  2. Cost: I've always assumed the tear-drop ones cost more.
  3. Surgical quality, which pairs with cost.

My estimation was always that cost was the main component, but there are definitely those whose aesthetics or - new motivation from this thread, desire to flaunt social status - leads to intentionally seeking these types of implants.

The biggest evidence of a botched job is nipple appearance and placement, and scars. Not necessarily the naturalness of the boob job, because some try to inflate their breasts in ways that no surgeon can make it look real.

Deleted my earlier response, it was uncalled for. This is better than that, but not by much.

This character being considered attractive and having so many mods is an indicator of the mental illness that is modern gaming.

Interesting point, I didn't think of it from the perspective of wanting to flaunt wealth. Seems retarded but so is everything else today.

Nothing new to say about the thottery, but I'm always surprised the women who get implants don't seek tear-shaped ones.

For these people whose livelihoods and vanity critically depends on their breasts, it's surprising they cheapen out for basketball tits.

They're idiots for embracing SJWism, but that's all of sports for you. Their low ratings will be even worse without their stars. And, remember that NBA is an extremely individualistic sport, so 1 player makes a massive competition (and hence, viewership) difference.

It's NBA playoffs time, not really surprising that they wouldn't suspend their best (?) athlete. Too much money on the line.

Sterilize all of the commoners!! Population control might very well be an 'unintended' consequence from this scamdemic. Any thoughts on this 'conspiracy theory'?

Lol @ 0:38's misogyny mention. Kurt was undeniably a feminist cuck.

That said, MTV: Unplugged in New York is still a banger and I enjoy a bunch of their songs (from Nevermind and In Utero, of course).

I was writing out a note when you responded with the same sentiment. Yes, it's a good thing, just not in the way they envision.

Being Twitch, you can trust them not to implement such a feature, and if it was, they'd prevent certain tags from exclusion 'cuz muh diversity.

This came out around the same time news about the Hot Tub meta, but has been overlooked. I think it merits mention.

If you want to support mental illness, they have several such categories:

Next week, streamers will be able to select from over 350 new tags related to gender, sexual orientation, race, nationality, ability, mental health, and more. The list of tags include transgender, Black, disabled, veteran, and Vtuber, among many others. We will also remove references to “ally” from the LGBTQIA+ tag, and are instead creating a standalone ally tag. These additions won’t change how tagging works and are completely optional. They simply give creators more choices.

Note the very pozzed Black with a capitalized B. How brave and inclusive.

I don't really use Twitch much, but looking into it, you can't exclude tags today, but you can include them. Based on Twitch's past, I doubt they'll add that feature, and definitely would expect them to restrict what you could exclude even if they did.

However, there are certain extensions that apparently support this, so if you are an avid Twitch user, rejoice! Amazon is helping you blacklist all of their mental illness.

I don't know, but thanks to them I'm not purchasing much either these days. Entire consoles (e.g. PS5) have been rendered obsolete, and many companies I would rather just pirate than support in any shape, provided their games even merit pirating in the first place. My wallet is happy, and my hefty backlog of games no longer growing at an unsustainable pace (life longevity).

This is a very long-term, perseverant strategy to normalize cicadas and other bugs as a food source in parallel to soy products. We don't consider a lot of sea-faring creatures as gross but if you consider their objective appearances, of course they are. Especially lobsters.

However, the issue with this is the agenda pushing. It's one thing to seek out different cuisines out of personal choice, and such bugs are completely normal in some societies, and another to be told by our wealthy superiors that cattle and other high-premium food is not fit for peasants.

In many years, society may place cicadas or other bugs in the same tier as shrimp, crab, octopus, or whatever aquatic lifeforms that are not personally identified as repulsive. Few saw the full craziness of CRT and the like, but it's not a short-term task on their part.

Won't they change it with the new Hot Tub category, though? It'll probably be endorsed by specific sponsors, and she'll get her ad revenue enabled later...even if a smaller amount.

The fact that you and so many still watch this type of content today is kind of a black pill though.

Taste like shrimp, but these tacos had to be smothered with so many other ingredients that the diner can't even taste the protein? Right...

Enjoy your organic, free range cicada at hippie prices! I'll stick to beef and the under-water bugs.

Fair enough. I read a lot of stuff, so even though I don't use social media (in the vein of Twitter, Facebook), these things naturally make their way through. For the longest time, I either didn't use Reddit or occasionally read it for news aggregation...most of my time was either on work or sports (gave that up eventually).

You've never seen strange media or social attention given to a given book, game, movie, etc., and either based on the description or curiosity, performed a cursory check and ended up liking it? Really? I have my doubts.

Good names. Still haven't checked out Uzaki, but the recent recommendation of Dungeon Builder by Gerry Conway prompted this thread - https://www.sankakucomplex.com/2021/05/17/power-girl-co-creator-labels-manga-as-sexist-misogynistic/

The manga was decent, not earth shatteringly good but definitely not a bad read. Unlike modern comics.

It made me think about all of the stuff over the years they've been screeching about, and which names held up.
