You know, I wish we could go back to old fashioned racism where Scots and Welsh were considered among the "swarthy" races and we could trip these idiots up by explaining that "actually, he was born in Cardiff, so no one is white in this!"

Assuming by "mixed race" they mean a couple where one spouse is white and the other spouse isn't I completely agree. Get rid of all the white people on television. We got 10 seasons of Friends, 11 of Frasier, that's really enough.

What do CDs have to do with anything here? Does she not know that old computers used tapes and is somehow confused by the term "compact cassettes"? She's, like, 33 - too young for the reference to computers saving to tape to really be about anything she has first-hand experience with, but old enough that she probably should be aware that CDs don't qualify as "early days of home computing".

Brace yourself for lovely “cancel culture” tweets: Basically: chud films himself being a homophobe, people say he’s a homophobe on Twitter, then he kills himself the day after. This is gonna be worse than when Alec Holowka killed himself.

*looking at early humans* lmao what's with all this rock banging, steam engines too hard to figure out dipshit? lol buddy, intensive cultivation of calorie rich plants too hard for you, just gonna eat some women-gathered because they have red periods berries and chase down prey over long distances like a loser. Just gonna sit there on your rear end, not even *bothering* to refine metal for use, it's call land based trade networks, a little tin a little copper, in minecraft (with mods) that's all you need to get a macerator, rear end in a top hat. It's not that hard. Oh look at Mr. Big Brain over here, figuring out how sticks work, how about you put some leeches on that there, Hero of Alexandrea rear end loser.

The thing is this dude was openly gay. He didn’t kill himself bc he was bullied on twitter, he killed himself bc internalised narratives about how femininity is weak directly clashed with his lived experiences as a gay dude. Guy lived with that festering wound his entire life and then became the main character on twitter for it. Maybe if he had better support he wouldn’t have killed himself but if he had better support he wouldn’t have been in a group disavowed from the right wing party for being too fash screaming at drag queens reading children’s books. It’s hosed up and George Christensen can gently caress himself for using it as his excuse to log off bc he hosed a 15 yo in the Philippines or we

Like, Alec Holowka didn’t kill himself because he was called out either, but that didn’t stop all of the Ethics In Video Games Journalism people screaming at Zoe Quinn that she’s a murderer.

Apropos of that, I was talking with my wife about what the guy that killed himself's "friends" are doing right now. I think she hit it on the head when she said "they're probably in their 4chan chat room laughing and calling him homophobic slurs".
