That's nothing. You can drive for 6 hours on any highway 10 miles out from San Fran, and still not make it into San Francisco.
why do I have to, out of the major studios, only have faith in Nintendo?
It's the only one whose headquarters isn't in Cali.
Or in other words, your corpse has value! Your loved ones should be paid 5-10k for it, otherwise, into the woods it goes!
We gonna need to start breeding more lions.
Step 4: Be invaded in the name of DEI and bombed to hell because Blackrock wanted a bit of your space-land on the cheap.
It's true, it was. But it was a different brand of it, focused on fiscal inequality (regardless of your thoughts on the merits of the complaints), which was actually a small bit successful at their "job", right up until they fell, suddenly and mysteriously, into race-and-sex-socialism and collapsed in a purity spiral.
A tiger and a lion may both be giant predatory cats you wouldn't want near your home, but it's still useful to know the distinction between the two as they have very different natures, and a lion suddenly becoming a tiger for some reason is something worth noting. The transformation from fiscal to racial socialism changed the beast entirely.
Don't bandy about "apparently" too liberally. For all we know, they wanted to make sure Queen Elizabeth wasn't black and so were fired because they didn't meet the DEI quota. The error is on Firaxis that console players didn't have access to bugfixes or DLC for firing the game's support company without having a replacement ready, not on the company that was providing it and then fired. Of course they aren't going to continue fixing bugs for it if they were fired.
I'm sure they're a plenty disfunctional company, all companies are and they did make the statue Modern Audiences-friendly and defaced in the first place, but your premise all on a "apparently" is not the best way to go about things.
Isn't this the guy who shot that chick in the face because he was pissed off, and then defended himself by saying someone else loaded his gun so it was totally legal and somehow that defense stood?
I did Masters' research on this well more than a decade ago, how diversity injection is best used to break up unions and solidarily of a workforce leading to a cheaper and less demanding human resource to be used in greater excesses. Even back then, basically all the research was in basic agreement on this, "yup, you want to have employees at each-other's throats over their low pay, not at your throat, so you do lots of diversity initiatives!", it was standard knowledge. It also reduced productivity, but most workforces were overstaffed a bit anyways so a bit of lost theoretical maximum didn't really hurt.
Employees worried that there's a gender or race pay gap don't worry that you're paying them piss-all, and they don't trust their coworkers so they won't unionize as readily.
This was BEFORE Occupy Wall Street, mind you, so the sudden obsession during that for the Left to be race-and-gender-baiting isn't really mysterious, it's simple injection of a philosophy that they knew worked really well to sabotage and break down the movement. Alas, I don't think the Powers That Be realized just how effective their agent's sabotage was, given the damages it is causing now.
RFK has a horrific health injury as an excuse. Kamala changes her accent several times a day if need be, she's able to control her voice, she actively chooses that tone.
Japan's low crime rate comes from an aggressively monocultural society. Adding "diversity" will increase crime rate, not lower it, even in as token an effort as animated cartoons.
Look at the shounen anime this season: Work hard, nose to the grindstone and you'll do well, just don't make waves (Healer is the strongest). Do make waves, but only to harshly as possible harm those who are societal dissidents (talker). It is more important to fit into society than to be strong (dragon rebirth).
All their youth-oriented shows, even if they're harem ecchi wish fulfillment, still echo and repeat a sentiment of "a strong and stable society is more important than individual merit". It's not their preached message, just subtly in the background. Hell, Arifureta is all about one guy being the bestest strongest ever, but the last entire story arch is about taking down a kingdom ruled on such a premise, and reaffirming that the MC's an outlier, that society shouldn't run on his systems. They actively celebrate societal cohesion and monoculturalism, because of the myriad benefits it brings them.
Even if that platoon was the 1st Drone Strike platoon, where all the platoon does is sit at computers pressing buttons to initiate or not initiate drone strikes, well... The top Starcraft esports players are even all bio-male. I can see wanting to m'lady the women, I can see grasping for a theoretical singular edge case where probabilities align to allow an outlier... But on-average, platoon vs platoon combat? That's peak delulu.
The police is siding with whatever group is the most likely to do the violence, as long as they aren't White.
You don't need the second part of that sentence. Whites are basically the most placid, pacifistic, nonviolent "group" out there, so they're just naturally on the bottom of the totem pole. Canada had a whole-ass riot and capital city takeover by whites, and the biggest complaint was food shelters were losing business because the truckers were giving away food to the homeless.
They'd push it even if it only had a yaoi couple side-characters in it.
Just look at Cardcaptor Sakura. Because that IS the series being described: Some young girl being put in fetish outfits by her best friend (who likes to film it) while her older brother and his gay lover watch over them.
And they love it.
Clearly tourist tastes. Everyone knows 6th was peak cinema, the best blend of surrealist humor and inside references to the past 3 cours, it was a love letter to the franchise! 7th was just a lousy cash grab, the series wrapped up nicely.
They should sit through the cold open, first 50 seconds of episode 1 of "A Little Sister Is All You Need" (this scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xS9tp-TuJtA ), have it pause right before the 3rd-wall-break of the editor asking "what the fuck is this degenerate shit?", and asked their opinions on how the show will progress.
Anyone with any opinion at all there is welcome, any views as to the story progression. Anyone who simply blindly castigates the scene/series/medium should be filtered out. Anyone who either accurately predicts a fake open or who instead just wants to know the story about the resurrected girl should be welcomed with open arms.
I'll never begrudge Japan for that. If anything, more people should be thinking that Christianity looks cool.
They need to just make new superheros.
Well, they would, but every time they try, they fail. I wonder why... Japan manages to do it every single season, so it can't be the market that's at fault, market's working just fine...
The kitten isn't alive either, so it works as a comparison.
Just explain to the kid that kids are very much like dogs and cats, so they can't walk alone in the parks anymore.
That's a debunked conspiracy theory. And even if it was true, it would be a good thing.
"Water and hydrochloric acid are the same thing, because both of them are clear liquids! They both even have oxygen in their ingredient lists! Checkmate, drumpftards!" -The NYT.
And we're over-eating that poison.
Nah, that's just a good ol' original O-G comma needed there; it is(n't) linking two sentences, not a list.
Bearer, seek seek lest.
