What did Drake even do to Kendrick though? I'm not buying any "it's just hip-hop" talk, this is past personal. You only hear people getting this crazy in battle rap.

🤣
I was good with Euphoria. Didn't need all the other stuff. I need to know what inspired this level of hate. Kendrick is emptying the WHOLE clip, to the point even I'm like "slow down".

It's crazy how it's EXACTLY like this.

No. He's been sending subliminals since Pusha T. Or maybe before. Whatever the case, he thought he could win against Push and found out "NOPE" in the worst way. Haven't seen him do direct back and forth since then.

It's minor, but the first "you don't know nunn boud 'dat" had me rolling.

Yeah, I don't play SF6 (I keep chickening out and playing other stuff), but that Demon is cinema. If it looks like that in game, that's amazing. I don't remember any of the other supers looking like that.

I'm sorry, but 🤣. These are the people on Mark Kern's "free stellar blade" petition actually voicing their opinion.
The thread is gold and the tweet he's quoting is gold.
EDIT: I found the actual feed where people are submitting their videos, but beware, the feed's been infiltrated with obvious trolls now.

Stellar Blade reviews and sales seem to be great. I still have little interest, but it's good to see it doing good (if it's as good as the reviews say).

....Did this dude serious?
And to be clear I'm talking about Grummz not Omni, Omni is clearly being sarcastic. That graffiti was the only thing censoref about the game and while I didn't find it offensive I also don't care that its gone. This really has no impact on the game whether its there or not lol.
He (Grummz) is as serious as a grifter can be. As in, whatever brings any shine to him. In terms of digging into his grifts for entertainment, he seems to be a gift that keeps on giving. According to this tweet, dude's selling "founders packs" for his "totally going to come out at some point" game EM-8ER at insane prices:
It's fun to laugh at the grifters, but I sometimes get sad (or laugh harder, it's a mixed bag) at people he milks who take that kinda shit seriously.
EDIT: BTW, he goes all the way in on the game/grift in the thread that tweet is a part of. That's not it by a long shot.

Am I being an idiot with Ticketmaster? They recently changed their site to ONLY show stuff in your location. Nothing x miles out if there's nothing by you. Instead, in the "nothing by you" case, you get a list of EVERYTHING in a category, and you have to search stuff down. Am I missing a button somewhere? Only way around this is to just pick different locations by me.
I have no clue why they thought this would be a good idea (assuming I'm not doing anything wrong).

^This dude is like 60 years old lmao.
And has a game he's (allegedly) working on and got kickstarter money for. Yet, he spends all day on this shit. It's hilarious.
I was looking for a new "make me feel better by just existing" dude to laugh at ever since the dude who led the charge against Shane Gillis (Seth Simons) went private years ago. This Grummz guy is filling those shoes nicely.

No. I guess my area's just bad. My insurance went up 60 bucks the second I moved. Been steadily going up since then, and I haven't even been here a year yet.
-
My insurance (Progressive) just raised their monthly rate yet again by 60 bucks.
Is every insurance blowing up thanks to inflation or is it just them?

I'm not a fan of how much this made me laugh:
-
Ever since the last little kerfuffle we had over digital faces here, I've been peeking in on this guy just to laugh here and there. He hasn't let me down; he talks about dumb shit like this all day. But this feels like gold. If you EVER want to know what a persecution fetish is, it's like god/the universe shaped the perfect example above.
I feel sad for anyone waiting on whatever game he's working on. Even if he was closing in on a release date, there's no way this terminally-on-twitter dude is giving you something good.

DSP getting upset over casual matchmaking and blocking anyone that beats him.
He HAS to be playing to the crowd at this point, right? This is intentional, right? There's no way you're this ass and making up excuses for this long just on your own. His audience probably doesn't even want him to get good anymore.

That's Harry Potter though. People know and love Harry Potter no matter what JK Rowling did. All I see about Stellar Blade is ass/titties and a bunch of clowns praising it just because the MC is hot.

I wonder if this retarded-ass "debate" is going to impact Stellar Blade's sales at all. I'm like 95% "no", but having your game get mostly talked about by a bunch of losers b/c titties and ass can't have a good effect. Seems like that shit is all I hear about this game, and it seems like the devs had nothing to do with it besides designing a hot MC.

I WANNA be super happy about that, as I loved Hades 1. But we're still years away from 2 coming out for consoles at this rate. Maybe I'll do a first and try it on PC.

I like he calls it stupid, says "Imagine if" like we have to imagine when we know what it's like to have the entire season drop at once, and then never explains why it's dumb, least not in that tweet, can't see the thread.
Stuff tends to do better and stay in public consciousness more when it's week to week. Binge shows are forgotten about soon after, unless they're really good.
That's my take on it anyway.

It didn't get a why does it matter because Birdie is dude. Let's be honest here. If an existing fit female character showed up overweight anyone said something about it the discourse would completely different. "Why does matter" "You are fat shaming" etc. would be tossed around ad anaseum. Stop being disengenous.
There would be a big negative reaction to, say, Chun-Li or Cammy showing up fat the next game. You would get "fat shaming", I'll admit, but a whole lot of "why does it matter" would be replaced with "I'm going to wait until the game drops" or similar stuff. There is a certain beauty or coolness standard for certain established characters, and drastic changes like adding 1-200 pounds just cause is crazy. And it's also not at all what's happening.
What's happening now would be the equivalent of a bitch fit over the scar on Cammy's face being a slight bit bigger the next game. Hell, that might be a bigger concern, because then at least it's obvious what the change was. That's why I'm asking "why does it matter"? You going into all these other examples (like Birdie) and making it bigger than what it is still doesn't get at that. I disagree that there's this wide concerted campaign to make women less beautiful in western games. But even if there were, how do the "changes" people are claiming (either between games or between model to game) make any differences? You're acting like this is some real "slippery slope" shit or a big problem when it's not.

It will never end because it isn't an honest discussion. I talked about how much I hated Birdie being fat in SFV. I never got "why does it matter" comment for it. In fact, none of the vitiriol and puerile nonsense came up then. When it comes to male characters you can have real discussion on appearance. The "why does matter crowd " only holds that belief when it comes female characters being made less attractive. If it's an attractive female character they lose their minds. See the absurd Stellar Blade discourse along with the 2B and Bayonetta revisionist history. If it's a male character's appearance the reaction is either crickets or the type of articles that would make them "REEEE" if the subject was female. Hot Ryu wasn't an issue at all and to be clear, it shouldn't be one. So what if people want post thirsty articles or comments about him. There is no consistency at all. While it wasn't perfect, the discussion around BG3 was at least more reasonable. People frothing at the mouth for Astarion weren't bitching about people drooling over Shadowheart.
You never got "why does it matter" for Birdie because it's a drastic change. It's understandable if people are split on his look.
The shit these face-gaters are on is not drastic at all. They're acting like it's Birdie in SFV when it's not even close. That's why you get "why does it matter" there.

I think I can feel a little of what you're talking about. Different profession, but I have a team lead at my job who makes me grit my teeth whenever I have a task from him. He's new and kinda dumb. So it feels like I have to do double the work sometimes. Some tasks will turn out to be alright, but some are like "people just leave you at home with the pilot light on?"
Thing is, he's nice as all hell so I can't really say what I feel. But just like your captain and his deplorable food, I'm like "who sent you to make my life harder? Can I punch them?"
