The 2nd was good, the third was excellent and probably one of my favorite games ever.

They probably pulled all his poo poo so fast because they already knew about everything and that there are more and worse stories out there.

I used to listen to Sex Nerd Sandra on nerdist and she dropped away from podcasting a while ago while mentioning needing to deal with some kind of trauma. I hope it wasn’t Hardwick-related.

He did a podcast about nerd stuff with his funnier friends and they interviewed people more famous then him. Somehow he made himself the leader and was very controlling of his friends careers.

You can own pretty much any vehicle made as long as it conforms to highway safety specs and doesn't mount any weapons.

You can own a tank as long as the guns are deactivated, but the cops will poo poo on you from a height if you drive it on a public road.

That's possible, but abusers are really, really good at hiding what they do from the people in their lives. If he's honest he's going to sit down tonight and try to put together some of the pieces. If not, he'll say nothing about it for a month and then just show up on the guy's show like it's nothing. And in that case, definitely gently caress him.

I feel like id know if my best friend was doing that kinda poo poo to women. will is vocal as gently caress about being socialy progressive as poo poo so i hope i am wrong, but sadly it wouldnt surprise me if he is just hoping this goes away. all these other people who were friends with them or worked with them are confirming it so either will is legit ignorent or up his own rear end.

the rest of nerdist has come out in support of her. so where the gently caress is Wesley. There is absolutely no way he doesn't know about his best friend's tendencies or at least have a glimpse into them. I know that people are sometimes completely different behind closed doors, but stuff like this has signs over time when you're that close with someone.

Sometimes the people who are most openly vocal about being progressive are secretly more regressive.

I posted about this in the thread covering all the celebrity sexual assault claims, but my favorite solo music artist recently got outed as basically forming a sex cult/harem of mentally ill women that he could manipulate and coerce into hardcore BDSM relationships and pimp for money (using a screen printing business and faked record sales as a cover for his income). While he was openly part of the lifestyle and a number of his songs are about it, he went so far as to make and sell "gently caress Christian Grey" shirts, defend the use of consent, and didn't even drink or do drugs because he cleaned up his addictions from when he was a teenager.

Turns out he was actually the exact person he talked about not being.

oh yeah, its why i don't trust overtly performative Woke white guys(hell anyone who over the top about something with morality or anything) because they often end up being hypocritical pieces of poo poo. like alot of the evangelicals being hosed up rapists or perverts. like it honestly wouldn't surprise me if wheaton was as abusive as chris, i hope its not true, but it wouldnt surprise me.

interesting if true. and this relates to a proposed plan to protest a pride event (say that three times fast) in knoxville this weekend. an ex-TWP skinhead dude mixed up in it too. shows how small these groups actually are, and in that thread shows the manipulation of local media (again).

edit: ah it's a triskele. looks like he's repping blood & honour on his throat. the skull and tricolor shield are a bit blurry but that's what it is:

I have worked with or known two rapists, and for each one if someone had told me I was working alongside a rapist and asked me to guess who it was, I never would have thought of the rapist. Not in a “no, it couldn’t be them” way, but I simply wouldn’t have thought of them at all. Abusers are extremely good at manipulating everyone in their lives—not just their victims. I’ve never had a best friend be one as far as I know, so I don’t know how that degree of intimacy works, but it’s pathological and hard to notice in everyday life even if you know a little bit about the pathology. I can believe a person could have no idea and think of himself as a “best friend,” especially if he were like a giant dork who likes to talk about space and Game of Thrones or national elections rather than actual lived daily experience.

that swastika comes from the south african neo-nazi group Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging. funny he should have that since during the bophuthatswana coup three of their members were summarily executed by a bophuthatswana defense force member after they'd been driving through the streets firing on civilians. the whole thing was filmed and was a public relations disaster for the group.
