To explain further for fellow Americans, apparently "Jez" is a nickname for "Jeremy" in the UK, because the UK doesn't understand abbreviating. Seriously, someone justify "Crimbo" to me.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone lead with their Myers-Briggs before who wasn't an INTJ, aka the sociopath genius archetype, so I'm not sure where I fall on this. Like obviously it's just astrology for nerds, but when you're a teenager trying to figure out your identity, you do tend to lean on this poo poo as well as media fandom, so I find it hard to get too judgmental about it.

gently caress it, I'm goin' in. I could take 2024, I can take this. Best way to take a swing at this is to break it into individual pieces and see if we can glean any meaning out of it. "Left wing people want to homogenize and depersonalize people for some warped greater good" - Notch doesn't like being put in the same box as the evil rich. "and eroding the stereotypical foundation as represented in classical media and power structures" - Notch is here bemoaning that lefties criticise what is usually referred to in the literature as The Patriarchy. "Is a direct way to undermine existing cultural resistance against traditional values" - Notch is here complaining that this criticism works against attempts to be progressive by- oh I got it Notch is saying "Don't criticise people who massively benefit from existing power structures as if they're all part of the same group, because maybe they're being progressive in secret and they'll stop out of spite."

Some lovely local band got rightfully called out for being a bunch of pricks, and are having a right sob over it in their breakup post. I’ve seen the posts the guy has made, and he’s a right prick. quote:It is with a heavy heart that we have decided to announce the end of Tumblr Girls. After consultation with the venue and promoter we agreed we would pull out of Friday’s show after constant harassment against the venue + ourselves from far left agitators and Cardiff Feminist Network.

Tiggum posted:Even so, what is her actual point? Who is she arguing with? Is someone saying that tall women don't exist? I’ve not read any of her posts other than the one quoted in this thread, so this could be a million miles from right, but it reads to me like she’s sarcastically airing a typical TERF argument. TERFs like to claim that they “always know” who is trans and who isn’t, based on just looking at them and deciding that they have “male” characteristics, like “being tall”. The fact that a tall woman exists would suggest that TERFs are full of poo poo. My guess is that the “being short” part of the tweet would be a nod towards a TERF argument that while this woman is tall (a male characteristic) she’s still a cis-woman because she has the mystical female essence of being short, which is innate to all cis-women and therefore something that trans-women can never have which obviously makes them tall men in dresses*. More people would see this if they hadn’t been brainwashed by the PC police to accept that there’s no such thing as magical innate cis-shortness. Yes, it’s incredibly dumb and reductive. But we are talking about TERFs. *just to be absolutely clear, this is 100% not what I think, it’s what the TERFs think. Cultural Marxist has a new favorite as of 12:17 on Dec 23, 2018 |

Imagine if Notch had died back at Mojang (but before the later phase where he instinctively started avoiding Minecraft and Minecraft development to focus on anything but Minecraft to prove that he was a game developer genius and that Minecraft wasn't a fluke) He would have turned into Indie Jesus and been revered for decades. Now we get to watch him do the Howard Hughes speed run that's probably going to see him through multiple trophy wives, a stomach staple to turn him into basically a fedora wearing Edward Furlong with a fat head. He 100% will make multiple attempts to return to game development and they will be cringy as gently caress as nazis begin to fawn over him and the games he will inevitably support/buy and release.

I'll never forgive the universe for making Notch ultra rich and famous, while the other guy who worked on Wurm Online, Rolf, is still fairly obscure and is a genuinely nice dude also Wurm is better than Minecraft and looks gorgeous now that Notch's contributions have been systematically replaced by a team of people that arent talentless hacks.

It wasn’t that he got rich, lots of fuckshits get rich, it’s that Microsoft decided to throw multiple billions at him. Billions. For a Java game where you place a limited choice of blocks in a badly optimised randomly generated map. Did they make the same mistake random idiots on the internet do and think notch owned the concept of ‘world made of meter squared blocks’? They could have just ripped the idea off. In a brand new engine. In about a week. Billions!

Biplane posted:Notch will never score a trophy wife dude. That cheevo will forever be beyond him. Yeah, like 60% of the reason Notch is this way is that he totally bought into the "women only like guys that have wealth and means" poo poo, and then he became a person with immense wealth and means, and it turned out not to be true, and he never reconciled with that mentally because he's an idiot.

There's a poo poo ton of Minecraft knock-offs already and none of them have a fraction of the market share. I went Christmas shopping for my nephew the other day at a bookstore and there were about as many books about Minecraft as there were about dinosaurs in the children's section.

Yeah, I swear I remember that he had an issue with spending his money throwing parties to try and be social and it just never worked because he’s a terrible person. And rather than work on himself to become someone that others like, he’s radicalizing.

I think part of his problem may have been him deciding to just show up in Beverly Hills with his ridiclous amount of money and start throwing parties at his lovely mansion. There's plenty of parties thrown by rich people to choose from in LA, and the folks who chase money are most likely to choose someone in the film industry who might get them in the business. Some weird dude who used to be a game designer and now does literally nothing but go on reddit isn't really a huge draw.

That's literally what he's saying. The transition of the meaning of the word is really creepy. Like I've not checked the book as to why we're supposed to hate Joss Weadon today but that is a hell of a reach. Maybe if he said nubile meant really sexy feet or something. Maybe you can help though, I was talking to my wife and we remembered we were supposed to hate E. O. Wilson but we can't remember why. Aramoro has a new favorite as of 19:08 on Dec 23, 2018 |
