I've seen the word 'mecca' (lowercase) used in sci-fi works over the years. I always assumed it was kind of like 'God' vs 'a god', etc.

YouTube is very copyright-strike happy if the commentator doesn't do exactly that.

D&D used to be a great and robust way for nerds to use a fantasy settings to enjoy math. Then they took the math out so that theater/drama class dropouts could wear its dead skin like a costume to signal their various lifestyle fetishes to each other. I doubt anything could bring me back to it.

Same way I celebrate every holiday; fireworks and booze.

Jesus, that's debatedly as much as there was 'good' Star Treks.

"I know GDQ was created for people speedrunning games as fast as possible, but what i really care about is what the participants like to have sex with."

That's the exact order I'd rank them, too.

People who think consuming the same things nerds of 30 years ago liked makes them nerds, too.

I had to walk away from everything in the divorce. I just didn't have the stamina of spirit to fight so tooth and nail against someone I once loved so much just for some stuff. So, I've been dealing with rebuilding and replacing in addition to everything else these past couple of years. It's been incredibly hard; every dilemma and setback that inevitably comes up in life feels piled on and insurmountable. But I make progress as I can, where I can, and I know I'm getting somewhere. Anyone can look at how much I've done with nothing and know that I can't stay down much longer.

Those stares and barrages of jealousy envelope these ladies' entire functioning lives, but those same multitudes will gladly claim it's okay to mistreat them to any level imaginable because of their [insert qualifier here] privilege.

So, if it draws a picture, it's breaking copyright of thousands of artists simultaneously, and is liable for damages, but if it says something wrong, it's wholly responsible, and is liable for damages. Got it.

I really enjoyed those Craption Contests.

Odd that B just stayed out of the conflict.

Oh, so a nice, family comic for the kids by lefty standards.

There's lots of trash-level, failed comic book lines out there. This is just one that didn't have to last as long before failing.

Being a white superhero is about being a superhero. Being a black superhero is about making certain viewers know you're black.

I hope the impacted sites sue the everloving piss out of them over it.

I sure hope she was over 18 when she filmed all those midnight releases.

It was never about the money; it was about sending a message.

Has nobody told them phones have decent resolutions now?

Let's go tooo the mall!

Rhode Island Red

I used to follow J.J. as, despite obviously being a leftist, he kept his shows fairly honest and representative of every view, and talked about interesting subjects, like vintage campaign trinkets or the history behind countries' flags. Then last summer he just said "Yeah, screw that" and went full TDS. This is literally the first time I've so much as heard his name, since.

It was like watching a group of kobolds failing to take down a troll.

But what about all the things she said?
