Jamie Faith posted:So Peter Coffin is having a messy break up with their podcast group. The podcast put out a statement wishing Coffin well, but then Coffin put out a tweet taking the podcast statement out of context to imply they were attacking coffin and acting like theyre the one taking the high ground lol lol. why do they always want to be a victim. like pete, stop picking dumb fights with randos and being a giant moronic rear end in a top hat who self owns worse than cinema robert. i don't even think Bob burned bridges are hard as you do.

Endorph posted:yeah, and that's a lot of it. plus the issue of stuff that isnt morally objectionable but there's no where to put it where you can like, convalesce with people who signed up for it. making art where you explore heavier stuff to deal with your own baggage is pretty normal, but twitter is just a giant pile where some stranger you dont know sees 'this story has sexual assault in it.' no context for how its handled or why is there, just that it exists. yea the 'pro/anti' poo poo is such a mess you really can't make broad statements like 'pro means they support kids getting hosed', even if there absolutely are freaks who use that label who do there's so much weird tangential 'this character pair calls each other 'brother' because they're both soldiers, ergo they're 'sibling coded' and if you ship them you're pro incest' poo poo it means nothing. Like, the My Hero fandom had a little drama explosion because like two or three popular fanfic writers decided one of the teachers at the school, a literal grown man who's said over and over to be a grown rear end man and looks like a grown rear end man, is 'minor coded' because his FANFIC version tends to have his more 'soft' elements played up and all, so shipping him with another grown rear end man who's also a literal teacher who is very physically and mentally a grown rear end man too is 'pro pedo'.

'his nihilism caused his daughter to kill herself' is something some 19th century Russian philosopher would say in a book that's a fictionalized version of a real debate so it's really loving funny seeing someone say it because their favorite comic book movie man called their bigoted clubhouse lovely.

Just the sheer pettiness of it, using a suicide of someone's child to punish them for what exactly? Not liking your lovely podcast or whatever, and your lovely opinions? What a bunch of filth

Dias posted:Separate websites with their own rules can still be fooled. I'unno, there's some poo poo that is pretty dangerous to keep online, queer teenage expression be damned. The whole anti- thing has some interesting figures in it. Not saying it's a panacea, just that the fact that everyone has to be in the same space makes some things completely unfixable.

Damnit sexpig, stop getting into chat here at the same time you're busy getting another sixer in D&D The stuff about Zack Snyder's daughter is just...wow. Like, just when you think there isn't any lower for these arseholes to stoop. I don't have much else to inject into any other topic really. I've been too busy belatedly playing Hollow Knight.

Noted hatemonger and grifter and "comic book professional" Ethan Van Sciver had a video taken down of the post-Zack throws them under a bus episode where he says "they can't stop me from killing Chinese people" although of course his channel is still active because horrible violent racism is a three strike rule I guess.

flatluigi posted:also to be clear Bryan Fuller is a gay dude referencing a pair of star trek characters from deep space 9 who were entirely intended to have a relationship on screen before it got shut down by the notoriously homophobic showrunner and now fuller is making star trek as queer as it should have been this entire time. I dunno how you could consider purple beardo Ira Steven Behr the homophobic showrunner but I know you're talking about Berman.

Quoting the Tyranny wiki: "Glaring silently is one of the most fundamental gameplay elements in Tyranny. As the Fatebinder, you can respond to the chaos with a withering stare, capable of wearing down the fiercest of opponents." More games need non-dialogue as a dialogue option.

I was really disappointed with Tyranny, myself. When it let's you choose to be an evil villain the game feels amazing, but there are so many points where it just doesn't offer you that control.

Archer666 posted:Yeah, that was kind of disappointing. It seemed that at some points the developers were afraid to follow on the premise of the game, which was weird. The start leans a lot more into the idea that weakness leads to death and chaos, but as it goes it it's clear the writers fall into the usual RPG writing trap that rewards you for being "kind" and "reasonable", in open defiance of the nature of the world they've built. It's hard to break decades of RPG tradition, but I still have to give them praise for at least trying and at least managing it in the begining.

Oh definitely respect for them at least trying. I had a lot of fun being an evil rule lawyer that occasionally sent people to get horribly impaled by an insane ghost-totem-man. It's a shame we'll probably never get a sequel, cause I don't think the game sold too well.

egg tats posted:anyway I think folk in here were talking about Falun Gong a few days ago and the eyeball zone pick this week is all about Falun Gong and it's pretty good despite possibly containing zero facts!virtually everyone is always lying about the Falun Gong! even the Falun Gong! I watched this video because of the whole Eyeball Zone thing and while I think it has some interesting stuff going on with it the guy kind of undercuts his own video with the bad comedy bits. Like I don't think the segments with his Chinese friend work all that much.

Dawgstar posted:La'Ron Readus is one of my favorite smaller YouTubers has an interesting look at the more of Raya: The Last Dragon and that it's maybe not so good: https://youtu.be/YidRwB2L0kg The episodes of Avatar after Zuko stands up to his father and Becomes A Good Guy are so incredibly important to the story. Even though the audience already knows Zuko has really changed, it takes time and effort on his part to prove this to the people he has wronged in the past. Aang and Katara aren't made out to be in the wrong for distrusting him, he betrayed their trust once already and caused them very real and lasting harm. Zuko tries and fails several times but only blames himself, because he realizes this is the consequence of his own actions and he's the one who has the responsibility to make things right, not the people he's hurt. The show makes a point to show that forgiveness needs to be earned and healing is a process.
