That too.

Btw, do you remember an article written by a queer Black person who critiqued the first special? I've been looking for it for a while because it was the most succulent I had found on the matter. One of their criticisms was that Chappelle said that trans was a white person problem.

Being a professional athlete is terrible for long term health, but for different reasons. Sometimes there's overlap like joint health though.

When I think of Chapelle now, I think of the time he had Musk on stage and call his audience poor for booing Musk.

How many of those are bots or alts?

His accusers started dying shortly after he uploaded those videos. Enough so, that the rest dropped their lawsuits.

He just chooses not to. Not sure that's any better.

That's impressive. Normally, it's media-illiterate rightwingers who like RAtM because they aren't listening to the lyrics. Not the other way around.

Let's see: go to a war zone with a busload of religious lame-os, in a country with no pork and a desert with no casinos. Where do I sign up?

What did I say that was a threat?

We're just talking about history here. No one's calling for violence.

“Violence is never the answer” types are just controlled opposition. Any and every peaceful protest that doesn't have the risk of escalating to violence can and is just ignored. Did those anti war protests against Bush II's wars ever amount to anything?

Because they liked them or because they didn't like them?

Those look good. I'll post my questions there before cluttering up this one.

I don't want to clutter up a general purpose community with tech support questions. I think of the general topic ones to be more about News or history topics.

The tone of the movies always felt off. Someone, anyone should have called out Storm and sided with Rogue's choice. Even if they disapprove of what Storm is saying, they just silently sat there.

I always hated this plot line in these movies. No one has any empathy for the struggles Rogue is going though. Everyone else can be both a living weapon and have a normal life, but Rogue has to choose. If you wanted to framed this as trans metaphor, everyone else looks like a bunch of bigots. Honestly, the more and more you breakdown what Xavier is doing, the more and more he just looks like a different kind of villain. Seriously, how many of the mutants powers ever get explored for non-combat reasons? If this was just about adults, it'd be one thing, but this guy is in charge of children who are being kept away from their parents.

But nope, in Storm's eyes, Rogue is perfect just the way she is. As a living weapon.

I think this may have been were I started thinking there's something wrong with Hollywood and comic book writers.

Halo 1 was never difficult with Cortana telling you were to go and the waypoint on screen. Assault on the Control/Two Betrayals has arrows on the hallway floors and I never got turned around in The Library.

If you really want labyrinth level design from Bungie, the Marathon series is were it's at and completely explains why there's so much hand holding in Halo CE.
