yes we're talking about video games, it's unsurprising that we're using video games as the basis of comparison. Especially when the conversation was kicked off with "ryza got hornier in its sequel", which is inherently comparative within video games. At no point was anyone even making any claims about the real world, which is what cultivation theory is about

You post in which you nonchalantly handwave away blatant sexism in video games however does exist in the real world

I would both read and post clueless questions in a beat-em-up thread

I'm going to :toxx:

- I'll make a general beat 'em up thread within the next 3 days. There's been cool modern stuff people should check out and a lot of the classic games are getting more accessible and more people should try out beat 'em ups imho. I've said a few times I'd like to see a beat 'em up thread so this is to light a fire under my rear end and get me to do it.

Gearing up for some spicy miso ramen later in the week, made some miso soup

This was relatively simple! The soup was 3/4 cup of water plus 1/4 cup of the fish/chicken stock I had left over from jambalaya, with some hondashi powder. Brought to a boil with a few shrimp, added chopped bok choy, then after a few minutes put it to low and added 18 grams of red miso (I followed the recommendations to press it through a strainer to catch the grit). Topped with some green onion and a piece of nori, had it with some supermarket sushi

Ryza herself is actually one of the more skimpily-dressed.

yeah. not every game needs ladies with big oily cans or anything but i think artists should be able to put sexy stuff in games with age appropriate audiences without everyone flipping out about it

also completely fine and weird to complain about, imo. it's not inherently sexist to have hot characters in your game. if this lady is some bimbo laughingstock whose big boobs are constantly making her gently caress things up, or if other characters make demeaning comments about her appearance, then that would be pretty lovely. but there's nothing objectionable about the simple fact that a character is conventionally attractive

She's a bodyguard and career mercenary who kicks everyone's asses into vague competence at surviving a fight. The character is portrayed as calm and professional.

First of all NSFW that poo poo. I got a freakin probe for sharing a wholesome image of a perfectly natural, god-blessed phenomena-- and here you you are, dumping an image of the more sinful sex, depicted in the most sinful art form, feautring the most sinful sexy body part, the area where a thick thigh meets a tight slightly constricting material.

how bout next time you think of hunting 4 smut, you try thinking about What Would JC Denton Do?

JC had been chosen for UNATCO�s prototype super-soldier program thanks to his stunning physique, and his cock was no exception. The shaft sprung as JC�s jumpsuit fell around his ankles. It hummed softly as the electrical impulses keeping it erect coursed up and down its length.
