Wow, I did not know that. I thought Yahtzee has alright based on stuff he's said about Trump and his opinions on military shooters, but I didn't pay much attention to anything he did outside of ZP, to be honest. Should have figured he was poo poo since he stayed on at The Escapist after Jim Sterling and bunch of other people left. Nobody should be doing anything with Ian Miles Cheong other than telling him to gently caress off.

That's surprising considering how consistently he has shat on the right in his videos. You could take any CoD video and find at least a paragraph about the lovely politics in those games. Even in the last one which barely features CoD because he praised Disco Elysium for most of it instead. It's disappointing, too…welp.

Yeah same here. Wow, his ex wife is really not going out of her way to look good there... Anyway, one of the funniest government gently caress ups lately here in blighty was an attempt to release a guide for people wanting to retrain. However, the questions are ridiculous and the answers are bizarre. Here's one my friend got...  My top suggestion was the following,a field I have zero interest or knowledge about :  Whereas my other half, with a background in chemistry and computing, had the suggestion of nail technician. Unrelated, here's a wild terf. Public Post and everything.

Aw man  I had no idea it was that dire. sugar mouse posted:Yeah same here. Wow, his ex wife is really not going out of her way to look good there... That reminds me of a career quiz one of my classes took in high school, where if you said you had interest in any kind of creative work, it suggested you should be a milliner.

I did that poo poo in high school too. It suggested I go to school to learn how to be an X-ray Technician then suggested I become a Lawn Mower Mechanic as a career. I hope my parents didn't pay anything for it.

China is honestly pretty similar to the USA these days, they're both nuclear-armed imperialist capitalist police states who use their financial and military might to bully other nations into doing what they want. But somehow a bunch of people seem to think they're profoundly different and nothing alike.

Vib Rib posted:Any reviewer, critic, etc who does those dumb skits makes me close the video almost immediately. They're not why I clicked, but I'd be willing to be pleasantly surprised if they were literally ever funny. The only reviewer from that era I still keep up with is Todd in the Shadows. He's also never done that kind of skit or plot or whatever. Definitely not any kind of coincidence, no sir.

If what he means by that is “People will willfully misunderstand history if the alternative is presented entertainingly,” maybe. Here’s my scorching hot take: the governments of China, the United States, and several other large and powerful countries are very bad.

Beyond the racism, there's a huge difference between saying "I've never bought a human skull" and "I never said I bought a human skull."

They're literally not saying they aren't buying a human skull. They're saying that they are not buying a skull from India nor are they buying any skulls without going through the proper legal channels and paperwork.
