That is pretty horrifying and hilarious at the same time

thats an honest game journo opinion right there because i dont care anymore. video games are becoming buggier, glitchier and just overall worse by each release and on top of that we have people throwing fits over trivial issues. yeah sure theres the rare exception of a polished game but 1 good game every blue moon doesnt cut it[/QUOTE]
Indies are going to prevail the crash easily, so the problem of collusion in indie circles would go nowhere.

Watch as somebody finds this and treats the last few seconds as totally unironic endorsement of Hitler.

Pretty sure if she doesn't hire minorities at the top of their field compared to white cis men, that'd be discrimination, wouldn't it?

If 'white cis men' were replaced with 'women', then you would have her kind screaming everyone's ears off because that's supposedly sexist.
But when they do it, then it's 'totes cool brah'.
Yay reverse sexism :downs:
If it's a genuine business venture and it's in Canada (or the usa), then it's illegal.
She isnt hiring them she just wants free resources.

The woman's day remark comes as a response to a series of tweets the Nostalgia Chick (Lindsay Ellis) put out, that AGG has been spreading around.
I mean, he called him a coward.
He was literally daring him to get mad at him.
Do they want totalbiscut to be totally pro-gg or something? Because it's working. They really make no attempts to convince people unless they don't even know what's going on.

Also the 23 hour thing is the dumbest fucking shit I have ever heard.

TB is really not taking their shit anymore. And it is glorious.
I feel like TB feeds off of the salt of other people and each time he does, he delivers more and more powerful zingers.
Genna...I'm already a demon
Some guy mass leaked reddit chats where all the mods from different subreddits come together :

This is probably why so many people banned the topic altogether at the same time. Get some insight to the thought process behind censorship (why they claim it's not!) and other things. Very interesting read, from the start of gamergate to now.
Will post highlights soon.

They purposely put womens day on this day so it'd be 1 hour less and less important!
ffff

Ooooh, it's daily saving time today in USA?

Is that a joking remark or was the Nostalgia Chick actually purporting that?

We need to make this into a mod.
[QUOTE=Keitaro;47282585]I'll you're saying is "stop liking what I don't like". Some people like muscle bound women, some like stacked breasts, other like big butts. They cannot lie. There is no reason for you to become angry that someone else likes the way they look.[/QUOTE]
My [b]main accent[/b] of the post was about "womanly", not "beautiful", which the pictures i posted of, as well as Zarya, has in minimum amount.
I just hope TB doesn't commit some kind of rage-induced faux pas.
[QUOTE=Keitaro;47282850]
Also, Dark raveN's response was he finds women with large muscle mass unattractive, not that the character was; though through extension we can assume the same will apply here.[/QUOTE]
Wrong again. She was added as a woman, but yet she lacks most of woman characteristics due to obvious body biological processes, there is the problem that Blizzard literally slapped tits on a heavy weapons guy and called it a day. They could've done a more feminine female character without the large body, VALVe did the same with changing Legion Commander's character into a female, but she got off by being slimly built, not beefy.
At Staples, we had 10% off for International Woman's Day on the 7th and today. We had to give it to everyone* though because last year apparently people who were not female did not qualify to get the discount and it pissed them off from what I heard.
* (boss said nobody at my work could use the 10% on top of our employee discount even though head office said we could)
"Scrotal Bisquick", I mean, really, how goddamn petty do you have to be?
[QUOTE=Thlis;47284038]Is that a joking remark or was the Nostalgia Chick actually purporting that?[/QUOTE]
I don't know her, but since she's apparently a comedian I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt. Not extending the same courtesy to the people who honestly believe it's an actual conspiracy.
Those IRC logs probably have some bombshells hidden inside of them.

I don't really see what's wrong with having a large body. I think her shoulders are a smidge too broad and her skull is a bit too square, but other than that she follows general female proportions. I will admit that I absolutely thought she was a dude the first time I saw her face.
I don't see why female characters have to be distinctly "feminine".
