The speedrunning community clearly needs more antifas running events who aren't afraid to openly tell the incels, chuds, and nazis to go gently caress themselves.

"When life gives you ghosts, you make ghost-robots"

I think this is a philosophy we can all aspire to.

they gotta run a PuwP event called "Power Up With Ultra-Pride" or something, reasons to do so:

- "PuwuP" funny to type and say, sounds more like "power up"
- "PuwP" difficult to say with mouth, does not sound much like "power up"
- "PuwP" sounds like "pope", popes are bad
- palindrome
- contains uwu, one of the meme words

thank u for ur time

I’m not sure if this is allowed discussion but it’s gone down in GDQ lore.

Deborah (Tolki) from the infamous cuckholding incident at SGDQ2014 by StivityBobo finally told her story and whoah boy it ain’t good.

https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srahg8

Yeah it wasn’t “haha that guy got cuckholded” it was literal rape.

Rapist #2 GiantWaffle is now back streaming on Twitch, still partnered. Streamlabs is still allowing donations to him through their platform. It's sort of off topic, but sorta really on topic. SGDQ is not that far off, and I do not think it's acceptable right now to be subbing to anyone/anything on Twitch right now. I don't believe GDQ uses Streamlabs for donations, so I think you can have a clear conscience in that direction. It does feel rather icky with a loving lot of people defending stiv and waffle despite this being a fairly clear-cut situation, but you'll have to sort out who stands where for yourself.

It's undeniable, by his own public admissions, that waffle is at least guilty of sexual assault. He's almost certainly guilty of rape, based on his confession of "cheating" to his ex-girlfriend, and his recent confession to a mod. Stiv admitted to loving her, so he's definitely a rapist. This isn't some questionable borderline case, no one has denied that deb/tolki was drunk well beyond the point of being capable of consenting to anything. I know not everyone is going to feel the same way about everything, but this case is so clear-cut and so outrageous that I don't feel right not bringing it up for people to at least consider.

It loving sucks to have a cloud like this hanging over the platform, I think everyone who uses Twitch and/or Streamlabs should be doing everything they can to make sure this is gone and out of mind before a big event like SGDQ starts.

There was the grav/goose thing, where one of the reasons they didn't initially take the ban forward was not trusting the reporter (cyberdemon, who is also banned)

Looks like the Xenogears speedrun is getting blown open. It appears that there's a way to access a debug menu by switching the disks, allowing maximum money, non-implemented items, and multiple full skips. The demonstration run is still ongoing, but this could take the record from around 18 hours to somewhere under 14.

Nah you're right bro. Helping the event be inclusive and safe for everyone is clearly not a job GDQ values, and thusly it was was totally right for him to be fired.

Ben is actually an escaped polar bear, posing as a human.

Unlikely because Polar Bears do not know how to speak.
Also it does not make any sense.
His wording is very deliberate and strange, and while it implies he was fired for his view point, it says something different.
