Is Azeroth a First One?
Azeroth is the Prime Worldsoul, but what does that mean? Is it just that she’s destined to become a very powerful Titan, or is it possible that she is something more…
#IStandAgainstJKRowling
In her crusade against trans people, there has not been a single woman's right JK Rowling won't throw under the bus. She allies with anti-abortionists, homophobes, MRAs, and the far right. She is a threat to women's rights. Transphobia is NOT feminism.
How the FUCK do you blame WoW devs for toxicity in the World of Warcraft community when the bulk of the toxic shit literally comes from you and YOUR PERSONAL MOB. Fucking beyond belief.
Politicians should be afraid of accepting anything that could be interpreted as a bribe and adjust their behaviour accordingly, even if it means turning down free stuff they really kinda want
Toxic positivity is when people insist you don't acknowledge real negative emotions or depression. It's not when someone is enjoying a video game in public I am begging people to get a grip.
See this nonsense is why I find gender essentialists the weirdest of all. Entire philosophies built around made up differences between women and men until you've convinced yourself it's feminine to call someone weird. Why can't you just be normal.
Calling people "weird" is such feminine behavior. Textbook sex difference: Men engage in open conflict; women police conformity. It's honestly disorienting to hear male politicians use the line.
It's hard for conservatives when they get bullied because they specifically chose the ideology that's supposed to allow them to be the bullies who trample all over everyone else. Thoughts and prayers though.
I've seen Christie Golden dismissed as some new, woke influence, the sort of "new crowd" that's causing Blizzard's "devolution".
Her first WoW book came out in 2001. "old crowd" Alex Afrasiabi only joined Blizz in 2004.
So the whole narrative is nonsense.
Imagine a female streamer saying this. It would be taken as the ultimate proof that women are bad at video games because biologically we're designed to gather berries while the men hunt or some rubbish.
Feminist and lesbian icon Sandi Toksvig is once again undergoing harassment from "Gender Criticals".
Toksvig outlined the absurdity of the trans bathroom panic and criticised self-proclaimed "feminists" for prioritising their hatred for trans ppl over real women's rights issues.
Men telling each other how it's so weird women are getting more and more progressive and then publicly concluding it's because we're allowed too much education, lmao
Gee, I wonder why women don't agree with male conservative opinions more, such a mystery
@hena_yan
She is harming women by perpetuating the damaging myth that we are defined by our genitals and our reproductive value under the patriarchy. This is why every single right-wing organization and figurehead in the world is transphobic. She and you are anti-feminist and anti-women.
Called a feminazi for years, never became a Nazi. Men not being able to help becoming far right because they saw someone say something nasty about them a few times sounds like a skill issue, tbh

There really is no right or wrong to you lot, just sides. If someone is on your side you protect, if they're not, you attack, and you couldn't be more confused when not everyone is as blindly tribalistic as you are.
Just Stop Oil protesters broke into a private airfield to vandalize Taylor Swift’s private jet.
Neither of the two aircraft that were actually vandalized are owned by Swift.
If you read Harry Potter there is a streak of unnecessary nastiness, particularly bullying of people for their looks, that absolutely doesn't exist in say, the Discworld books. This isn't an attack on the OP, just saying better books have been out there all along.
It's really kinda weird how we've normalized creating entire human beings who are then given, without asking, 60+ of having to work and struggle and strive just to survive, for little other reason than "I want a baby".
The idea that wowhead are the parasites as if 90% of wow content creators would be able to exist at all if it wasn't for the resources, news, and information wowhead supplies. My god.
I miss forums. Like I remember them with the fondness older generations express for life before cellphones. Reddit doesn't cut it. Discord? Don't make me laugh BITTERLY.
I see we've reached the "abortion rights are actually something men want, not a real feminist issue" stage of using transphobia to completely dismantle and destroy feminism.
TERFs are the biggest threat to women's rights of our lifetime.
The "superior gender" who are so convinced they're biologically designed to be the rulers of the universe and best at everything can't convince women to marry them and have their children if women have literally any other option
There are two major conflicting definitions of a woman. "A woman is who she says she is", and "A woman is who I say she is". The first believes people and their bodies belong to themselves, the second that people and their bodies belong to society.
It's actually ok to see a teenage girl standing up to a misogynist who's not only attacking her, he's actively making the world a more dangerous place for her and all girls, and decide that what this situation doesn't need is for you to lecture her about her response
It's honestly astounding how easily people are fooled by assertive language. LLMs speak with a tone of confidence, and it's just incredible watching people absolutely fall over impressed. Doglike behaviour.
I can't believe I still have to say this, but LLMs are OBVIOUSLY capable of reasoning.
You can literally watch them reason IN PLAIN ENGLISH in front of your very own eyes.
The cope around this is unreal.

Whether or not Baldwin is guilty of murder has literally nothing to do with him being wrong about Palestine. Being wrong about something doesn't automatically make you guilty of everything else. Genuinely what is wrong with you.
In the original Hercules story, he murders his wife and children in a drunken rage and has to complete the 12 tasks to make up for it. But sure, let's all pretend the 90s Disney version was some pure, non-woke version, and that changes in messaging is a new thing in 2022

@TheCriticalDri2
As drinker has said a million times it’s not about colour or sexual orientation those are fine clearly the issue is “the message” and that every remake has to be a vehicle for it
I want to believe Rowling is going to get sued and that Musk is going to get into trouble for election tampering but unfortunately I'm pretty convinced we don't live in a universe where billionaires face consequences.
One of the most successful strategies the right has had for a long time is to convince people - particularly people who lean left - not to vote. It's really important to recognize the propaganda that is "leftist" accounts that sneer at voting for what it is already.
Kotick may be gone but his philosophy has clearly won. They did entirely gut customer service, they keep getting rid of valuable people like Christie Golden, and who knows when there will be a Blizzcon again.
Is it actually possible that the reason Biden seemed so adamant for so long is because they wanted the Republicans to waste their entire RNC focused on attacking Biden with little thought to Kamala. Because that'd make his behavior these past few weeks go from baffling to genius.
30 years ago we sat in school classrooms quietly. No ADHD anywhere
Kids ate peanuts and had zero food allergies
Almost no kids were obese.
Autism simply didn’t exist in children.
Any ideas??
It's not leftists who are constantly complaining that people don't want to be their friends / date them "just because of their politics" or having to rely on unbalanced systems that favours them because they can never win a popular vote
The amount of people saying they shouldn't have criticized him in public makes me despair. Vimes was right when he said humanity had a flawed tendency to bend at the knee.
I absolutely 100% promise you not a single person on Twitter is someone you *should* follow, especially if you find they have a negative effect on you.
So basically the worst possible joke - combining all the wit and originality of a dad joke with the nasty vindictiveness of a horrible and bitter person punching down. Hilarious. How my sides split.
The right: Don't be gay, don't be trans, don't do drag, don't have pronouns, don't be atheist, don't be weird, don't be fat, don't be different, don't dye your hair, do look & sound exactly like us
The left: Wow you suck
The right: WOW YOU WANT TO LIVE IN AN ECHO CHAMBER WOW
Everyone who reads these headlines is just going to assume she's a trans woman. And they're all like this.
It is dystopian to watch the entire media target a marginalized group like this, purposefully and knowingly inciting more hatred, and misinformation violence against them.
We've already reached the stage where being anti-abortion has been reframed as a "feminist" stance. In the name of trans-exclusionism, body expectations for women are getting even worse.
I love it when billionaires are like 'all my sycophants agree with me' with zero self-awareness. Like this is the exact same method Elon Musk used to conclude he is a meme lord.
I've read too many disappointing books lately. It's been years since I read my way through the Discworld books so I think I'm gonna just go ahead and marathon the whole lot, starting with the tragically underappreciated Colour of Magic
@mustachetoilet
Do you think they mean a parent drove them to their interview? Because that's the only way it makes sense. Also what is "unreasonable" compensation - asking to be paid for work? And "inappropriate" clothing - THAT is a phrase I don't trust for a moment
Look I don't know a whole lot about the IT outage but I do think if you've reached the stage where you're blaming it on woke code, you might want to at least consider therapy
Re: "Yes harassment is bad but what about valid criticism".
Tweeting a dev on Twitter about something you don't like in a game that dev works on is not valid criticism. It's akin to accosting someone in a restaurant. You are not using the appropriate avenue to provide feedback.
The older I get the more I realize stuff like "basic humanity" and "entry-level morals you learn when you're in kindergarten" are considered radical if you still stand by them as an adult.
Son's PC is broken and he's still saving for a new one.
Me: Do you want to borrow my toy? It's not much but it has old Mario games on it
Son: Super Mario Galaxy?
Me, hair going white: No, *really old* Mario games
Son: Super Mario Galaxy is really old
Me: *Crumbling to dust*
Celebrating making TWITCH AFFILIATE!! I can't believe it happened so quickly, thank you everyone who has stopped by the stream and I can't wait to see you more often! 🎉🥳
The right are trained to argue in ways that allows them to frame the narrative from the start (I know this because I was raised on the right). Rejecting the question rejects their framing. It absolutely works and is the best response and that's why you're so hopping mad about it.
The Haus argument is fascinating because it turns out a lot of people honest to god think a blue tick weirdo who does things like draw big red X's over someone else's comic is actually one of the biggest intellectuals of our time - because they sent a tweet
The fact that people are going "no but really the charges against t*te are very serious" as if all the content where he actively encourages violently abusing women was just high spirits good fun really does bother me a lot more than any jokes people are making.
This is just when my very religious parents used to hand around lists about what cartoons you shouldn't allow your kids to watch because of communism (care bears) satanism (my little pony) or witchcraft (gummie bears) but for angry 19-year-old boys
And it’s worth coming back to the original chart:
This trend can not just be palmed off as the sole responsibility of one gender. Young women and young men have both played their part in the divergence.
When Dragon Age Inquisition came out, a lot of straights complained that some characters were gay and it stopped you from romancing them. I remember how angry they were that one was lesbian.
In the BARBIE commentary on MAX, Greta Gerwig says that "everyone" told her to cut this line because it was "too obscure."
We should revoke execs permission to give line notes. Like, honestly, what's the worst outcome here?
OH NO! ONE LINE IS CONFUSING! THE WORLD IS OVER
