That TikTok is the most actively moderated social media, they have teams dedicated to stopping harassment and conspiracy theories, and that’s why minorities love TikTok because it’s so safe etc etc etc

Exactly. LARPing at that kind of scale is just unfeasible. Speaking as someone who has contributed to the writing and design of one or two immersive theatre experiences, one of the things you have to account for is the "runtime" of the event.

Jesus, that interior looks EXACTLY like the new Honda we just bought this weekend. I drove it for the first time on Saturday and I was shocked by how much it feels like driving around in a bucket. I don't like the new console very much.

I hope this one is affordable though. I really need a car for myself and it feels absurd buying ANYTHING these days. The last car I owned was an 08 Civic and I still miss how simple and cohesive it was as a car.

Great. Here I am in fucking iowa with no hope at being able to do anything to try and help the situation in gaza (nobody in my state cares lmao, and this state is as red as they come since our 2022 red wave wiped out a lot of dems here) and this genocidal loser refuses to call thousands of deaths the fucking genocide it is even with students all over protesting and gen Z constantly warning him they will not back him if he doesn't use his power to try and do FUCKING ANYTHING about this genocide.

I am not in good faith voting for a man who let tens of thousands of people fucking die and did NOTHING to stop it and seems increasingly desperate to lose the election on purpose.

God I'm so mad. I lurk here often. I barely speak, because I have little to say, I dont think I'm the only one. But this pissed me off enough I can't resist anymore. Really hate having no power to do anything in my state, and i long gave up on donating money once all the aid started getting vandalized/blocked and I felt like the money i did donate near the start of the conflict might as well have been set on fire.

This whole war literally made me lose my ability to pray because prayers do fucking nothing, and each month getting worse and worse. I genuinely don't even feel like going on sometimes because of how depressed I get. I barely escaped dying from an abusive situation in my youth, so hearing so many kids perish just really stings so hard I don't think anyone in this thread would ever be able to fathom just how hard the news like that would hit a near death survivor like me. anytime I hear about something particuarly bad my drive for the entire day just evaporates and now that's almost a daily event. I am sick of fucking everything

I remember in 2021 when the flareup happened that summer, which got me aware of the conflict. I also noticed a bunch of media like some gaming sites and other smaller groups in indie circles were vocal and willing to pledge support and donate to gaza. Kinda pisses me off how now it's worse than ever yet most of those bigger sites that vocally supported the people of gaza back in 2021, are suddenly quiet about the blatant genocide going on now. If action like that could wake me up to the conflict in 2021, there's no excuse for Gamespot and the like to not be rallying together and call attention to this to do something about it on a bigger scale, to let others be aware of the horrors going on. Because quite frankly outside of this thread and reuters I haven't been able to find the best live feeds of this thing...

"seafoam gaming" sounds like a channel name, so I google it

Biden was never going to recognize a genocide even if he hates Netanyahu’s guts. They know that, dunno why they are surprised. The fact that the situation is bad enough to not give Israel a blank check should be something to take to account.

I agree that there's no equivalence between israel and hamas, but probably not in the way he intended

They're threatening to kill the other guy instead, or telling him to commit suicide. That's worse imo

I often wonder how FtM trans people would deal with actual male "locker room" interactions. Like, do they have any idea how awful we are to each other (well, at least the functional ones who weren't breastfed until the age of 12)?

It doesn't need to be swallowed, and this is short term thinking that keeps us in this situation for forever. I can already see how liberals are becoming so much more reactionary under this admin. A strong Biden win and support from the left says that this situation in Israel is okay. Genocide is okay.

Trump would likely be about the same with Israel. The idea that he would have been worse is mostly just cope. Biden is about as bad as it could possibly be, so people just tell themselves it could have been worse.

What exactly did Fiction/Crossing Eden claim? Searched couldn't find.

TikTok is the only place he can watch video of adolescents in skimpy underwear doing provocative dance routines without going on a list truthful content because it is so well moderated of disinformation and all those other social media sites keep peskily trying to offer alternative takes to his world view

also the fact that SOME OF THE STILL HELD HOSTAGES ARE US CITIZENS means he's not gonna be all "awwwww shucks, well, if you say sorry we'll forget all about it then"

[TylenolJones]

If Biden loses....Trump wins. Trump winning will mean an expedited push on Palestinian genocide...as well as Ukrainian genocide, and trans genocide. Biden losing will make things 100% far worsefor 97% people of the world.

I've loved Luca, Soul, Turning Red, and Elemental of the recent Pixar. Elemental even wound up a success story despite how marketing was handled by Disney.

The concern is now if these layoffs will noticeably affect the creative process at Pixar. It's hard to imagine it won't. And let's face it, if they start having big hits again, they are going to want to add staff to future projects. Just a terrible way to treat people.

A lot of stuff on that forum baffles me honestly, but one thing annoys the absolute fuck out of me for some reason. The wholesale posting of articles and news topics without any additional commentary.

Users like DinkyDev, MDCrabCakeFan86 (aka K Sweeley), ContractHolder and the most annoying one of all, Edmond Dantès.

It's like, aren't there rules put in place for that shit? It's low effort and straight up copying paid articles the majority of the time. B-Dumbs is one of the dumbest fucking administrators for a site I've seen.

people do this while decrying AI training, when posting articles from behind subscriptions and paywalls is often the whole reason that such articles get trained on



maybe AI trainers are like oh we don't want to get in trouble so we won't even crawl the Atlantic's website, even if their stuff is posted publicly and should be fine, we don't want to cause issue

but we WILL train from web forum resetera, that should be safe

and then it's full of entire Atlantic articles
