The Eye of the Storm

@RaeTheJet @ozsarchive @azarias416 You're silencing queer voices that disagree with you by completely ignoring my response. You don't have to like the song, nobody's forcing you to listen to it, and I disagree with you on the song's impact. It's a thoughtful story about a man becoming an ally.

@ozsarchive @eyeofthestorm95 @azarias416 If that’s your take away then cool.Keep silencing queer people to listen to how a straight man feels. Cause whys he singing the shit in the song no.Still no response about that.He didn’t and isn’t changing shit. No straight man is gonna change cause he listened to auntie diaries.

Kendrick wrote this song to confront prejudice in the LGBTQ+ community. He openly admits he used to say that word without understanding the harm it caused a close transgender relative, showing his own growth from ignorance to empathy. The song is a nuanced story about how language shapes us and the courage it takes to unlearn it. Meanwhile, braindead idiots online post isolated lyrics out of context to stir fake outrage and miss the entire point.

@B4xMx I don't know how this ended up in my feed, but it's interesting to see an entire discourse on whether or not it's okay to wear shorts from a different culture 😂. They're not typically worn at work indoors in the USA, but anytime else they're normal in hot weather.

おっさんのハーフパンツを不快に感じる人は多いと思う。私は妻から「私服でもやめて」と言われてる。ひどい話だと思う でも「不快だからダメ」を基準にすると、中年女性の短いスカートなどにも同じ理屈が向く。実際、それを気にして好きな服装を諦める人もいるはず。 「誰かが不快だからダメ」を基準にしすぎると、結局は外見の良し悪しで許される範囲が変わってしまう。見た目が良ければ許され、そうでなければ何を着ても責められる、という歪みが出やすい。

@RaeTheJet @azarias416 I'm married to a dude and agree that you're talking out of your ass. The song is not an excuse to do anything, it's him coming to terms with and accepting his LGBT family members. You're allowed to have an opinion, but we can also tell you it's terrible.

@azarias416 Crazy I can’t have an actual opinion when your ass isn’t even gay you just like Kendrick 😭

@chanwalrus @fandompulse If you're using DLSS, turn it off. Apparently it's causing FPS issues compared to running it native or with TSR.

@fandompulse The thing that killed it for me is my PC should be able to run it fine on medium. It can't even handle low at 720. Their specs are completely off.

Subnautica 2 sold 2 million copies in 12 hours. Now the EULA is generating a major backlash. Players discovered the agreement prohibits VPN use, bans streaming without a Krafton disclaimer, blocks monetized content, allows remote access to the game without user consent, collects full name, address, phone number and gender with no anonymization guarantee, passes data to third parties, and waives class action rights in favor of California arbitration. Unknown Worlds says it is reviewing player feedback on the terms. EU players are filing consumer protection reports citing GDPR violations. Is this going to kill the game?

@Ruletonga @L0FI_beasts @ProtoMadd @jenny2x4 No shit it's not healthy for kids. This conversation is about adults making it into a bigger deal than it needs to be, and it's weird to demonize it wholesale.

@L0FI_beasts @ProtoMadd @jenny2x4 Oops, I guess I might be on the dangerous end then, although I don't proselytise too much. In all seriousness, I think you're overdoing it, cuz porn does leave a major negative blueprint on a young kid mind, it's not like there isn't a major demolishing job to do.. I get you thou

Congrats to this girl for doing the impossible and getting my entire timeline to defend the man in the relationship

@mightydudbolt @gakamsky @Thegenrlstaff @Trutown Because it was. The false flag was the flimsy justification to pursue the already proceeding genocide even faster. Remember, this is all about sucking a resource from the planet that would literally destroy it.

@gakamsky @Thegenrlstaff @Trutown "What took place yesterday… what happened yesterday on Ghorman was unprovoked genocide!"

The "brilliance" of this scene is overhyped garbage. With the usual suspects soyjacking over this scene, it just really hammered home for me that none of them get how violence or the rules of engagement works. If you put yourself in the shoes of the guys on the crowd control line, the simple reality here is that the rank and file Imperials did *nothing* wrong and were totally justified. What that officer knew: - He took fire during a volatile event - One of his guys got killed He then proceeded to order his men to open fire, firing in the direction he believed he was receiving fire from. Immediately on the first shots from his line, his men started taking fire from ununiformed, armed rebel agents *inside of the crowd*, killing more of his men. This led to a firefight where the Imperials were opening fire in all directions and were taking return fire that was causing them further casualties. At no point were the Imperials *not* in mortal danger. It really doesn't work to try and show some atrocity, but then immediately when the False Flag happens have the actual enemies you wanted to pin it on open fire from inside a crowd and turn it into a street fight. If you really want this scene to work, you have to have some stones as a writer and show the Imperials opening fire on a truly unarmed crowd then when they realize there isn't further fire coming from the crowd, have an order be issued to continue firing as an extrajudicial punishment on the crowd as a whole. It's not "cool", it won't be a battle, it'll be grim, but it'll be a lot better than this crap.

@hammer_peen @LillianBelle2 Prove me wrong, then. Show me your data on what states are the most gerrymandered

@eyeofthestorm95 @LillianBelle2 The best part is you honestly believe this. No matter, people are moving out of libtard states in droves. The 2030 census will be eye opening. That’s why Dementia Joe opened the border to illegal aliens. Libtard states need them badly

This is wild

@hammer_peen @LillianBelle2 7 out of the top ten most gerrymandered states are republican strongholds. They've been doing it far longer than the democrats and to more extreme lengths.

@LillianBelle2 Now go look at how Illinois is gerrymandered - for DECADES. Good to see Republicans pushing back! BAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA

@mr_say @StasisGame That's not true. I've replayed MGS 2 and 3 more than 20 times combined and those are linear experiences, while I can barely bring myself to start a second RDR 2 playthrough.

@StasisGame 20 hours is great but in linear story games like uncharted is great but when you finish it you aren’t gonna go back as much as other games like rdr2

20 hours of content for a single player experience is insane. Every Star Wars movie back to back is 25 hours. The LOTR extended cuts are 11 hours total. Throw in The Hobbit to get to the 20 hour mark. 10 average James Bond films will get you to 20 hours. That’s just under half the entire catalog. Open world games really did a number on the perception of expected play time with games.

@armyWVgirl @micyoung75 @DrBLK00 I don't need to read what amounts to an uncritical acceptance of his words in the second sentence. His actions do not match his stated intent, otherwise those four Colonels would have been made one-stars by now. Their track records are exceptional, and deserved the merit.

@eyeofthestorm95 @micyoung75 @DrBLK00 Read. Make up your own minds, ya piranhas. Be good! x.com/armywvgirl/sta…

Hegseth fired the first Black Joint Chiefs chairman, the first female CNO, the Army chief in the middle of a war. No charges. No explanation. Each replaced by a white man. The Joint Chiefs is now all-white, all-male. His staff calls him "Dumb McNamara." The Atlantic named it right.

@armyWVgirl @micyoung75 @DrBLK00 If they didn't make the cut then why did every single person involved other than SecDef try and keep them on the list? Hegseth was the only person that had an issue with those specific officers, and none of the other ones who were white cis men.

They were selected by the prior administration’s boards. Guarantee. SecWar can review those lists prior to this administration’s approval and referral for promotion. It’s that simple. These officers didn’t make the cut. They were unfit for duty. That’s all folks outside of the uniform need to know.

@armyWVgirl @micyoung75 @DrBLK00 They were already selected for promotion and he unilaterally blocked it. The scenario is completely different from what you're talking about.

@micyoung75 @DrBLK00 Lived the tale for more than 20 years. Bottom line, if they don’t make the cut, they don’t. End of bullshit. Stop the lies, media. From, a female combat Vet. x.com/armywvgirl/sta…

@BoboBearDragon @team_dan_69 @tonygabagool26 @Gleebus34 I'm genuinely confused as to how anybody can claim there's high morale anywhere in the military right now, let alone retention being because people like being in.

@BoboBearDragon @team_dan_69 @tonygabagool26 @Gleebus34 Not even close, have you talked to anybody that's in? 90% of it is because there's little hope to find well paying jobs outside of the military. Medical is a joke, housing is ass, the work sucks, leadership sucks, we're gearing up for wars that nobody's interested in fighting...

@BoboBearDragon @team_dan_69 @tonygabagool26 @Gleebus34 Retention is better explained by the economy being absolute dogshit for the majority of Americans, and I'd love to see where you pulled high morale out of your ass.

@team_dan_69 @tonygabagool26 @Gleebus34 Yet, somehow, military retention and morale is through the roof since he took over.

@ThomasY68722523 @niccruzpatane I'm pretty sure BYD massively out-sells Tesla in every market they operate in. Like, it's not even close.

@niccruzpatane They are really possed that Tesla keeps out selling them, huh.

In 2027, China will be effectively banning vehicles from having: • Fully flush (pop-out) or power-dependent exterior door handles. • Yoke-style Steering Wheels Additionally, China says essential features like: • Turn signals • Hazard lights • Gear selection/shifting • Windshield wipers/defrosters/defoggers • Power windows • Horn • ADAS (advanced driver assistance) activation Must have a physical way of activating, to prevent over-reliance on touchscreens/voice commands for critical functions.

@DDyack @GrahamGeekEire @YorchTorchGames Yorch's main "opinion" is that women and assorted minority groups he doesn't like don't belong in gaming. He's racist and stupidly homophobic, which by any reasonable metric should be indefensible unless you implicitly agree with that.

@GrahamGeekEire @YorchTorchGames I assure you, calling people names because they disagree with you is not being a "good person." It only shows a lack of thoughtfulness and understanding for people to hold diverse opinions. I think you need to reconsider your position.

Three of the four games you believe have lost sight of what works for gamers are award-winning & have sold millions on the platforms they're on. They're successful because of the quality of the team & what they know what works for gamers.

@durandalcomplex If it's what I think and it's based off of Arma's KOTH game mode, the objective space is much smaller and more concentrated. The reason the game mode never fully blocked off the rest of the map was to allow longer range vehicles and weapons to be viable from outside the circle.

once again another milsim that doesn't understand massive maps are fucking pointless if you can only have 100 players to fill it

@compiledpixel @Danus30 @Mpiloe_Cabeka @stitchiot @ThomasSowell Nobody's telling them to do that, and it's not wrong to educate children about people who are different.
