Besides that she was editor of Kotaku, and is actively trying to sue a YouTuber? Check out this short.
SPOILERS FOR TAKE ME OUT TO THE HOLOSUITE (can we do spoiler tags here?)
Moreover, diversity was not their strength in that episode. Their ragtag band of diverse and lovable misfits, playing a game that has deep cultural significance for (at least some of) them, got absolutely rolled by a racially homogenous team, who just recently took up the sport as a minor diversion. Kind of unusual for Star Trek.
Even "rizz" is just short for "charisma," making "rizzler" a mildly funny portmanteau of "riddler" and "rizz." It may become an enduring part of the language, like "cool" or even "sweet," or it may die off like "groovy" or "a fine how-do-you-do" or "phat."
Anyway, I agree with you. Literally every generation comes up with their own slang. Some of it catches on permanently. Most doesn't. I would advise people not to fall into the boomerism trap of saying, "back in my day we had reasonable slang, why are kids today like this??"
Edit: actually, the zoomer phrase "let's go!!" made me think about this recently. (For any who don't know what I'm talking about, it's used as an exclamation when something good happens, almost exactly like "yes!" or "hurray!") I find that phrase particularly interesting because it uses only the King's English. It literally could have become a thing in Shakespeare's time, but as far as I know, it took all the way until Gen Z to spring up -- and I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being one that catches on for good.
I'm over 100 hours into Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, and it's very fun, with great graphics and an interesting twist on classic turn-based JRPG combat. I've noticed virtually nothing woke, though I guess there could be something in the back half of the game (I've been grinding and doing sidequests). Definitely recommend.
Yes, it turned out that the ideology was being pushed hard by that same cabal, or else we would have won basically overnight. As it is woke company after woke company is failing or struggling, non-woke stuff is doing gangbusters, studios and companies are starting to outright denounce wokeness, the whole world is shifting to the right, and Trump was elected twice.
Gamergate achieved the goals that we set out to achieve. Now it's been folded into the war against the richest and most evil people in the world, which itself is going well. Exposing a second health bar does not mean you are losing.
It could be even more pleasant, true (that's what keeps it from S tier), but it doesn't grate at all. How many American movies are watched around the world, and how many viewers come away distracted by the accent? Not very many.
Trump's saying that these polls sampled something like 35% Trump supporters (a massive undersampling). I bet that's true.
