Appalled at some of the posts here. You'd think a forum that was born because people protested against the owner of the former site and his actions would have more understanding of what the mods in multiple subreddits were trying to do.

I mean reddit and era share a very similar demo of entitled *cough* white *cough* men. And a lot of people have been run off of the site. People are literally throwing a fit about not being able to use reddit. Hopefully more communities continue to hold the line.

in the books it wasn't because she was a woman, I think it was because merry stabbed him in the ankle with a dagger they had extremely luckily picked up in a tomb which happened to be dead people he had been oppressing as their overlord in life, who hade made this superweapon dagger they never got the chance to use on him

Been walking around with a 1st Visit pin and just been soaking it in. Never really been to many amusement parks, Universal Studios being I guess like the only one. But I just did Avatar Flight of Passage and I was in tears with how amazing it was. That, Rise of the Resistance and Haunted Mansion were all amazing. Has anyone else here been on any of these rides?

My fiancé wanted to do Guardians but couldn’t and I missed out on Smugglers Run so maybe next time.

Disney’s Magic Kingdom to Welcome ONLY Adults With Children, Beginning Late Summer 2023

https://www.disneydining.com/magic-kingdom-for-adults-with-children-only-bb1/

Disney World’s decision to bar these Guests from visiting Magic Kingdom on weekends and over the summer, beginning in August.

“DW is a FAMILY amusement park!!!!” she wrote in her post, “yet these IMMATURE millennials THROW AWAY THEIR MONEY ON USELESS CRAP!!!!! They have NO idea the JOY and HAPPINESS it is to MOTHERS WHO BUY THEIR BABIES TREATS AND TOYS!!!!”

But the woman was just getting started. She continued with, “DW is for CHILDREN!!!! People without CHILDREN need to be BANNED!!!!” And, as her sense of entitlement would have it, she went so far as to demand special treatment at Disney World as a mother, writing, “Mothers with children should be allowed to SKIP ALL THE LINE[S]!!!!”

Just on weekends for the summer.  But it's a start.

I don't want to have to explain this to my theoreical child.

There was a prophecy that "not by the hand of man will he fall" in the books, but the way Tolkien writes it can apply to Merry as much as Eowyn.

And I don't think the dagger had any specific strength against the Witch-king, just general spells against Sauron and his servants from a past war.

But anyway,

I don't want to have to explain this to my theoreical child.

Until then, this writer expects an influx of debate and controversy among fans and haters alike over Disney World’s newest restrictions. Especially when they learn that such restrictions are nothing more than a satirical firing-back at the ridiculous public outrage against Disney adults of any age, regardless of their parental status or lack thereof.

You read that correctly. Disney has no plans to restrict any Guest from Magic Kingdom on any day on the basis of whether they have children. At least for now . . .

I think you're still in the clear because there's a theoretical ban to protect the theoretical child, but real children will continue to need the Adult Disney Talk.

Before I even clicked the thread, I asked myself, are they white? Are they rich?

Any other questions?

What confuses me is what even counts as white to Era anymore? From Ezra's wiki:

Miller's father is Jewish; their mother is of Dutch and German descent. Miller identifies as Jewish and "spiritual".

Wouldn't this make him a minority? Or are Jewish people now excluded from their definition when convenient?

Ah now they like to talk about Top selling games,
https://www.resetera.com/threads/starfield-is-already-the-1-top-seller-on-steam-today.728979/

Most wishlisted game on Steam since Feb too.

Wonder what game was most wishlisted back then to give us context on the height of Starfield

That was a banger of a Direct Deep Dive, in their defense.

Still, yeah…

What do you think?

They stan any minority up until they start speaking out against or criticizing another minority. Then it’s fur and feathers flying.

I mean, this is the studio that suggested that girls don't know what it's like to move to the city or some dumb shit. Between this and how they treat gay characters and women, I think I'm being kind.

Something tells me this series/company may not be for you dude. And I don't meant that in a smart ass or disrespectful way so please don't take it as so.

Didn't the mods create an OT for Ezra Miller and his crimespree because they got tired of the mass reports for people not caring about non binary bullshit?

White, rich, attractive, cis-passing…

This feels like a self report

Doesn't "cis-passing" describe literally every non-binary person?

Are these people in their twenties?

Most of them are in their early 20s. Though I work with a few people in their 30s/40s who are are happily married or happily single and still playing the field.

One dude is in his 50s but is much skinnier than I am and has a wife and child.

I think I just missed the boat, honestly, and now I’m the weird single older guy.

Well, you do post on Era.

I mean Booth Babes were a thing since E3's inception and I think they really only went away in the early 2010s.

A friend of mine went to the tech show in Taiwan that was a few weeks ago. They had those there still... Just a bunch of scandily clad women showing off keyboards etc. Blergh.

Definitely some self confidence issues, since my last girlfriend (five years ago) would go on about how she “could have any man she wants” and that “people look at us funny in public because they don’t understand why I would be with you.”

Damn, therapy is sounding more and more necessary.

I literally had to sit down for a few minutes and grab a beer for me to process Dunkirk. The sound was just so goddamn overwhelming that it was the first time my mind had to reset after walking out of the movie theaters. I hope that he stays away from that stuff forever.

also i am shocked that tenet, the worst movie in the history of film, a movie so bad a pandemic was sent from the future to stop people from seeing it, made .07 cents for anyone let alone 7 figures

see this is extremely relevant to current events because the prophecy didn't say a woman would do it, it only said a non-man would
 

So passed the sword of the Barrow-downs, work of Westernesse. But glad would he have been to know its fate who wrought it slowly long ago in the North-kingdom when the Dúnedain were young, and chief among their foes was the dread realm of Angmar and its sorcerer king. No other blade, not though mightier hands had wielded it, would have dealt that foe a wound so bitter, cleaving the undead flesh, breaking the spell that knit his unseen sinews to his will.

so a non-man broke the spell keeping the dude's undead bits together and as a result another non-man was able to kill him, like how they killed barbossa in pirates of the caribbean, or imhotep in the mummy

My family and I are doing a road trip next week and we are going to be stopping in Las Vegas for one night. I was looking for one room at a decent place for a cheap rate. Ideally one with a buffet.

It's just going to be the three of us-not really doing any gambling or anything. It's just the halfway point between Salt Lake City and our home and we just want to checkin, get a good night's sleep, eat breakfast in the morning, maybe walk around a little but and then head out.

What's a good casino/hotel to stay at with a decent rate where I won't be ripped off?

Don't equate that Democrats lacking the power to do something with Democrats hate the LGBTQ community and have no will do help them.

There is no fundamental difference in results though. You don't get cookies for caring and yet failing to protect people. You get cookies for actually protecting people.

If you cannot protect people because of the system in place, that still isn't really the victims' problem.

"Grrrrr we are still so MAD that you cannot act ILLEGALLY to PROTECT US!!!!"

These people want to live in a dictatorship so so badly without realizing what that would mean for them.

Pretty sure she is advocating to dismantle the system to better protect LGBT people. They want a gay revolution basically including overthrowing the system to institute some quasi communist/anarchist government. And think they will be the ones on top of that situation...
