You get a sense of the mass and weight of all that material

its stupendous

Really cant wait to see flares in kerbals 2

they have put a lot of work into thenm

Well to be honest they just put a lot of work into that game in general

Im guessing a june release next year

right about the time Im hoping to have a trailer and park it in a trailer park

No more damned apartments!

So done with those

At least with a trailer I can pick up and leave lol

Never really crossed my mind in the last 22 years I could do that

Just lived in apartments and didnt consider the other options

A shame too, id have been way better off

ANYWHO! Time for me to head to bed!

Take care and thank you for sharing the solar observations MM! Always a pleasure to talk space talk with you!

[dry copper]

You can look at the exact same jets on the sun relative to one another and clearly observe an almost continental drift of plasma, from left to right along the x axis

I don't mean to confuse that with the satellites position which is circling the sun giving the impression of the exact same thing. This is accounting for that, across multiple days

Here is the 25th

Here is the 27th
https://sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov/assets/img/dailymov/2022/09/27/20220927_1024_0211.mp4

Ignoring the relative appearance of the sun as it relates to the observation satellite, paying only attention to the plasma jets that persist, there's a clear movement of that large mass along the x axis

just a concept but looks neat

imagine a got mmorpg in westeros and essos

[snow zenith]

Umm

why

[idle saffron]

$

[tame cairn]

because i like westeros and the houses etc

why not?

i dont care if its the story of the show

more like id hope its not

at least imo the world is cool

[snow zenith]

GoT's strength is the intrigue and politicking.

You won't have any of that in an MMO.

You'd get a New World with a facelift.

[tame cairn]

idk what that is

but i mean you still can get story elements in a mmorpg

[coarse swift]

GoT, the game
Tons of unnecessary sexual activity, now in Unreal Engine 5

[tame cairn]

might sound odd but when got was big i played roblox, and there was a got one

people made houses and recruited people

map makers made maps from the shows and some that arent

15-20 vs the same amount

had an interactive map to show which houses owned which territories

you could move armies on the map but it took actual real life time (like a few days)

but you can use the kings road to move faster

idk was neat

im still in the discord but dont play roblox anymore but theyre remaking said map

the lines all across the map are for territories

when you move your army you take over more pieces

if theres another army there it’ll be a war

Bloody Gate and Oldtown

basically where wars would take place if they were there

[primal loom]

Sorry just saw this

It's from Death Stranding

[frozen carbon]

well I might have to watch some gameplay just for the visuals

[primal loom]

It's so beautiful

I stop to take pictures all the time lol

[cerulean kite]

i forgot that ryan reynolds and huge jacked man are good buddies, them working together on deadpool is very neat and cool

So, Ryan Reynolds decides to troll some over Deadpool 3 details

In the video I was able to hear the following before it became completely inaudible.

Here's the video

At least more than I did

[dry copper]

I was watching an interesting video from Mary Spender on the subject of success in the music industry

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LP1na4h5srk

She talks about a lot of issues musicians tackle with success

She has several videos where she talks about the culture of labels and the impact of social media on the music industry that are absolutely amazing

Meh. That's nothing. There's only one song worth putting on repeat from that OST.....

I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROOOOOOOOOOOOACHING

[dry dirge]

i prefer devil trigger

bury the light is still good

[sturdy pendant]

Kinda like Zeldas or Skyrim and games like that, with a lot of content. I find a lot of adventure games are 30% of missions and shooting and 70% running from one place to another to have dialogues.

And I mean I love a good story but most times that's not it, you just have repetiveness.

[dry dirge]

ah

[sturdy pendant]

I haven't played SP games in forever and don't know where to start.

[tame cairn]

Witcher 3

[tame cairn]

for this

[dry dirge]

i haven't played witcher 3, but that seems like a good choice yeah

[tame cairn]

you’ll never run out of things to do

or at least itll take you a long time

[sturdy pendant]

I don't like them.

[tame cairn]

Well thats the only game I can think of with something you described

without being elder scrolls

lol

[dry dirge]

you could also try the previous TES games, specifically oblivion
(unless you already played them)

[sturdy pendant]

I've played them, lol.

[tame cairn]

oblivion is 👌

[sturdy pendant]

Morrowind is my favourite.

[dry dirge]

daggerfall for me

[tame cairn]

why not if i might ask?

its basically everything you said you wanted

[dry dirge]

hmm, i've heard good things about FFXV, which seems to fit your description

[sturdy pendant]

Not interested in having that conversation :)

[tame cairn]

alright

[dry dirge]

i've only played the demo, but it was great

[coarse swift]

Can't make your own character in Witcher

[sturdy pendant]

Heyyy, someone else did recommend that some time ago! How did I forget

[tame cairn]

thankfully

[coarse swift]

And I don't really like Geralt as a character myself

[sturdy pendant]

I don't even care about not being able to make your own character.

[tame cairn]

but new one people are suspecting it will be created

[sturdy pendant]

I loved RDR2.

Witcher is just full of sexual content and stuff that is such a huge bore for me in video games personally.

[dry copper]

Question is: Why

[coarse swift]

Same

[glass plinth]

Welp Grounded finally released! EEEEEEEEEEEEE! I cant wait to squash spiders!

[sturdy pendant]

Grounded is fun.

[dry copper]

Witcher is full of sexual content? I mean, sure if you chase that element it can be but there's so much more

[tame cairn]

you dont have to do anything sexual except for the ones that are part of the story

[dry dirge]

*get squashed by spiders

[tame cairn]

which is two scenes

lmao

[coarse swift]

Being forced into any sexual content is kinda cringe tbh

[glass plinth]

Yeah, always loved Grounded and more like skewered Pickle*

[sturdy pendant]

Not everyone likes it, okay? It's there plenty in the main story too.

[tame cairn]

but theres a reason for it?

its not like geralt is forced

[sturdy pendant]

No reason to get butthurt if some people don't like sexual content, wtf?

[coarse swift]

Idgaf lol.

[dry copper]

Geralt isn't real.

[tame cairn]

cringe tbh

[coarse swift]

Sure a character can be forced into sexual stuff, but you can also just... not animate the stuff too

[dry copper]

The concept of force does not apply to fictional characters. Force as it applies to this situation is in how the game forces you into adult situations.

[sturdy pendant]

It forces it on you as a player if you can't avoid it.

[tame cairn]

to each their own

but two scenes isnt ruining an amazing game for me

[dry dirge]

oh, i'd recommend trying the fable games as well @sturdy pendant

[dry copper]

Fable is a fantastic game

[sturdy pendant]

I've played them! They were okay.

[coarse swift]

I don't like sexual content, so I just tend to avoid games with it. Big reason I haven't played Cyberpunk

[sturdy pendant]

A little too much running around to be my favourites but they were definitely playable.

[dry copper]

I started fable 4 but couldn't get into it

[coarse swift]

Fable 1 is great

[dry dirge]

👀

mumble from the future confirmed??

[dry copper]

Sorry I meant Fable 3

[sturdy pendant]

Same, I really would love to play it, but nah. Even today watched some gameplay of it just to see if I'd be into it, but nah. It's there and it's cringe.

[coarse swift]

Fable 3 kinda the worst Fable tbh

[dry dirge]

fable 3 is my favorite, but i haven't played 2

[sturdy pendant]

I think I've only played 1 & 2

[coarse swift]

Gameplay wise it was neat but wow was the story direction bad

If you didn't just save up gold in the beginning and do nothing else, you're screwed in the end

[dry dirge]

i think the "Living weapons" concept is great

[dry copper]

Ooooh if you don't mind cute beyond imagination, I highly recommend "Grow: Song of the Evertree". It's a sort of fantasy RPG life sim in an INSANELY cute world full of tons of unique characters where you build up a town, meet new people and help restore a dying world that was abandoned.

[coarse swift]

Grow looked neat, forgot about that

[dry copper]

Greatest cute game I've ever played

[dry dirge]

eek, i looked it up
i can't mind the graphical style

[dry copper]

100% kid friendly

Every approach to every situation is carefully designed around an audience assumed to be children

[sturdy pendant]

Ohhh, the one game is gonna be out soon, the...

Plaque: Tale of Innocense sequel?

[tame cairn]

yess

[sturdy pendant]

I loved that one.

[tame cairn]

cant wait

[dry copper]

My first thought was it's too cute but really...it kind of grows on you and you learn to appreciate the difference

[sturdy pendant]

And the trailer for the sequel broke my heart so it's gonna be awesome

[coarse swift]

Plaque: Tales of the Dentist

you better not open a brewery and only serve IPAs

[dry copper]

I'm reaaaaally starting to hate this whole recommended bullshit on youtube

What ever happened to categories on the front page

[sturdy pendant]

omg need to check that

[dry dirge]

iirc its not very accurate to LoTR lore, so if that bothers you it could be a problem

[sturdy pendant]

I know there was one lotr game I wanted to check, but there's so many it's hard to keep up

[willow crypt]

are you just looking for adventure games in general?

[dry copper]

FAR: Lone Sails
FAR: Changing Tides

[willow crypt]

wtf Mumbles

[sturdy pendant]

Mostly yeah, I do like a bit of action over just wandering.

[willow crypt]

how did you know i was going to say that????

[sturdy pendant]

Like I love Far Crys.

[willow crypt]

Vanadis, i was about to recommend Far: Lone Sails to you

[dry copper]

Because we both like good games

[sturdy pendant]

Never heard of that, I'll check it!

[willow crypt]

it's a shorter experience

i like the short ones

[dry copper]

But it has a sequel

[dry dirge]

oh, also another problem about Shadow of War, its 100 GB

[coarse swift]

Can I make gluten free beer tho

[tame cairn]

the middle earth games are good though

[sturdy pendant]

Don't be afraid to recommend older games to me either, I've not played in forever so I have missed some gems.

[tame cairn]

question of the ages

[sturdy pendant]

I play Overwatch and Ark, space is no issue :D

[tame cairn]

is that a thing?

[coarse swift]

Far Cry Instincts

[dry copper]

ICO will forever be my old favorite

[coarse swift]

Not likely, most beer is made with barley

[willow crypt]

no because it's a multiplayer game and id join your server and close your brewery

[tame cairn]

i see

[willow crypt]

you could probably make some alternatives that are beer-like

[sturdy pendant]

Gluten free beer most definitely is a thing.

[coarse swift]

Not that I even want beer tho

I don't drink

[willow crypt]

smh

sober me hombre

[dry dirge]

its a game about making beer, not drinking beer

[willow crypt]

sir

if you're gonna make the beer, you gotta make sure the beer tastes good

a good chef taste tests

[dry dirge]

a AMAZING chef doesn't need to taste it to know its excellent

[willow crypt]

an opnipotent chef

[dry copper]

An amazing chef that doens't taste his own food isn't an amazing chef

[dry dirge]

trust me guys, i've toasted bread before

i'm kinda an expert

[glass plinth]

Oddly enough Mumble, I knew a amazing chef who couldnt eat their own food

They were allergic to meat

yet, they were one of the best bbq artists i know

[willow crypt]

chef game where you bake bread

for ceryn

[coarse swift]

I am almost certain there is not a single brewery that exists where the makers don't taste the beer first

[dry dirge]

😠

listen, i'm smort

[willow crypt]

usually, people who make beer like beer

gross

Don't forget to consume your nutrient sleeve

[dry dirge]

and maybe someday, we can play VR without getting a headache

[willow crypt]

i wonder if that's one of those things that improves as you build up your tolerance

like with motion sickness

I built my tolerance up a good bit with the psvr. Starting out, would get sick pretty quickly depending on the movement/controls

[dry copper]

Scorn is so....crazy. It's like an art project gone insane

[tame cairn]

looks amazing

cant wait

[dry copper]

The way the game integrates gameplay elements with story elements makes it play so alien

I love that they don't play at the gimmicky jump scares and instead go for more atmospheric horror

[dry copper]

With the eye of the storm parked in a bay theres very few worse places it could make landfall

The only way this storm could get worse is if it parks itself on a lake

Like Okeechobee

So bizarre

[torpid lynx]

My friend lives in Fort Myers, and their house is likely FUBAR

His dad got a call from the Coast Guard because an old Eperb was alerting them and it was likely in the garage of their house which is now under water or got knocked off a shelf by the water

[dry copper]

Why would he have an eperb ? Don't you have to hand them in?

[torpid lynx]

I’m not sure why

[dry copper]

Oh I'm stupid it's for a boat

Maybe he likes boats

[torpid lynx]

His dad used to own a boat yeah

He had to retire though

Hm

Someone deleted my posts 😦

Meh anyway time for a concert I’ll bbl

wether i can or not

Avenged Sevenfold, Three Days Grace, Linkin Park, Motley Crue, and Black Sabbath

one thats not on there

Green Day

fs

Red Hot Chilli Peppers would be awesome

[austere lance]

Can't see Linkin Park anymore 😭

[tame cairn]

sad

[austere lance]

RIP Chester

[tame cairn]

middle school that was most of what i listened to

along with green day

[austere lance]

I saw Three Days Grace when Adam was still singing for them too 😔

[tame cairn]

bet that was sweet

[austere lance]

💕

[torpid lynx]

One of the first concerts I went to was Evanescence, Seether, Breaking Benjamin. Later on I mostly stuck to unknown unsigned acts but as far as bigger names I saw Static-X, Powerman 5000, Prong, Lacuna Coil

Last show I went to back in 2019 was Enforcer/Warbringer

I’d like to see Rob Zombie some day but damn it’s hard to get tickets lol

Always at such expensive venues

[tame cairn]

Sounds like a lot of fun honestly

[torpid lynx]

Lately I’ve come to realize I like the newer lesser known bands because they have a rawer more honest energy and passion

The older bands I’ve seen have kinda come off as ‘phoning it in’ if you know what I mean

[tame cairn]

As I got older I moved towards rap, and thats how I feel about someone I listen to

hes not newer but

been around since 2012

hes just not known

[torpid lynx]

Ahh

[tame cairn]

when i watch his youtubed lives they look so much more like hes into it and actually singing/rapping

because he also sings

the song isnt really playing his words through the speakers as much

like most rappers

if you know what i mean

like when i watch bigger rappers live they just mostly let the speakers do the rapping..

[torpid lynx]

Oh yeah

[tame cairn]

i dont really listen to rap except that one guy now because of that

and other elements like his singing

just more variety

even a few country lmao

[tame cairn]

and the fact hes self made, meaning he didnt sign with a record label

[torpid lynx]

Capping off the night with IN FLAMES

[tame cairn]

Is there any way to remember what I’m doing in DS3?

havent played for a while…

[silver sparrow]

Probably killing a demon

That's in Canada alone

Shit's getting messy

There's no quest line. Does it matter?

I mean, realistically you can pick up where ever and none of the NPC will care

They don't hold you in high regard

Have you ever wanted your mirrors slightly improved? Does the idea of mirrors that are not improved or improved too much, frighten you? Now, today - You too can get your mirrors slightly improved with the mod: SLIGHTLY IMPROVED MIRRORS, available on Nexus Mods. Never before have mirrors been as slightly improved before. Experience it today! - Or don't. It's kind of a waste of processing power and the limited number of assets you can control in the game make it equally if not more valuable to just increase your graphic settings.

OMG steam you toxic piece of shit...stop updating! Twice in one day!

I think I figured out the way to go

I was in a cave and couldnt remember if I finished what I was doing in there

[fleet moat]

just came across this amusing The Onion article and it's so on point with silly reviews i've come across in the past about "x show/movie is too woke" narrative (in the case of the lotr series, "elves can't be black") https://www.theonion.com/guy-on-doomed-planet-mostly-concerned-with-skin-color-o-1849519086

Sexy murder

Also, clearly this dude cheated. Seriously. Look at his score top right

99999999?

[dry dirge]

real life has too much diversity, I can't believe they made life woke 😔

[dry copper]

The irony of wokeness is that the very people who created the term are the people who bitched about it existing

The term woke robs people of any agency for their decisions

It annoys me, the existence of terms that only serve to simplify things that should absolutely not be simplified.

[fleet moat]

I mean, it got reappropriated from the black community from a bit ago...

The phrase “woke” and to “stay woke” is not new — it began appearing in the 1940s and was first used by African Americans to “literally mean becoming woken up or sensitised to issues of justice”, says linguist and lexicographer Tony Thorne.

Mr Thorne, a visiting consultant at King’s College London, told The Independent that the word is rooted in African American Vernacular English (AAVE), and was used in American street and youth culture for a long time.

[full magnet]

no one more snowflake and triggered than people people who unironically use them outside of their (triggered) intended use

[frozen carbon]

same people who complain about the new lotr casting ("but Tolkein only wanted white people!") also complained about the Sandman regardless of that author's wishes. got no time for those jerks.

[full magnet]

fantasy creatures are only white, obviously

(dont show them a dark elf or drow)

[frozen carbon]

well... dark skinned beings gotta be evil if present at all. no issues there 🙄

[full magnet]

dark skin mommy elfs

Wasnt tolkien like

A really, really horrible dude

Or am i thinking someone else

the dude who’d block women in doorways so he could like

Do things

In front of then

[frozen carbon]

luckily we don't have to keep anyone's racism in adaptations of their works. (I haven't heard that particular thing discussed, maybe someone else).

[full magnet]

lemme look it up, it’s someone in that sphere of famous authors

[frozen carbon]

anyways, the minority bigots may be loud but they are still the minotiry

[full magnet]

…. Im finding like dozens of authors who all did the same thing

tf is up with authors

man i swear it’s tolkien im thinking of specifically though

it’s crazy how all these people with such insanely vivid and amazing imaginations that they can put to use and shape generations turn out to be like, so opposite of their works

Maybe it’s not tolkein im thinking of

[frozen carbon]

there's a lot more people out there with vivid imaginaations, not all of them dudes and not all of them white, and as room is made for their stories to get told, we'll have a lot more possibilities to choose from

[full magnet]

I’m talking about historically

harry potter being the big one everyone knows of

[frozen carbon]

ayup

[full magnet]

polyjuice potions can turn hermoine into a furry, but trans people can’t exist irl

specifically transfems she’s against

[frozen carbon]

well she wasn't really a furry, she was hermione looking like a furry.... so much fear that turns into so much hatred 😦

[full magnet]

dave chappelle literally killing his career so he can be transphobic

shit’s wild

[frozen carbon]

in the meantime we have characters like Dax in the Star Trek franchise that have been pushing gender boundaries on TV for a long time

[full magnet]

star trek pretty pog

i guess star wars is the same way, but i kinda feel like they’re deciding these things now and enforcing them that they always were there, where as star trek has always been upfront

[frozen carbon]

retconning may be annoying but honestly, stories are always retold and reshaped, and re-imagined 🤷‍♀️

[full magnet]

I just wish they didn’t retcon the entire EU

There was a lot of really good shit in there that they were just like nah

I cant remember his name prior to being deleted, but han solos son was huuuuuuuuge in the lore

such great potential that they turned into crybaby vader wannabe and mary sue

[frozen carbon]

haven't really kept up on the latest movies tbh

[full magnet]

not worth it

[frozen carbon]

storytelling has been lacking

[full magnet]

they’re very bland

i didnt watch the last one

only watched season 1 of mando

[frozen carbon]

oh, is it on 2 now? I did not make it through 1

[full magnet]

ye theres 2 now

im waiting for loki 2 to come out and maybe ill try mando 2

gotta minmax disney + since I dont want it

[austere lance]

Mando s2 is

[winter yew]

Oh jf anyone plays skyrim on the switch, the anniversary edition is available on the eshop!

[sturdy pendant]

I've lately seen a lot of criticism about game tags like "hispanic creators" or "made by lgbtqia community" etc and I have to say I don't understand why those can bother anyone.

I'm white and straight and even I like those, cause if a historical game is made by hispanic people, I know it probably won't have your typical white people conquering the world tropes.

And LGBT content usually is very respectful even when it comes to sexual content, I've started to like reading books that advertise themselves as LGBT authors cause I know it will be a lot healthier view.

[full magnet]

phobes are very loud

the gay agenda

[sturdy pendant]

Phobes?

I've not heard Tolkien being a horrible person, but I'm not exactly been looking into it either

All I know is the Eddings' case where they fostered/adopted a couple of kids and kept them caged in their basement.

[full magnet]

phobes short for homophobes, transphobes, etc

people who hate LGBT

I'm starting to think it's not Tolkien I was thinking of

[sturdy pendant]

Ohhh, gotcha

As far as I know, Tolkien was really wholesome, but who knows. More and more bad hidden things keep popping up.

[full magnet]

but it's like, another huge author name up there with Tolkien

I can't find who I'm thinking of, apparently whoever it is started fad cause there's a lot of authors who do it

[sturdy pendant]

I'm finding something like that on CS Lewis, but then again also hints about homosexuality so who knows if it's true or him being tarnished cause he was a homosexual.

[fallen notch]

A lot of that seems like "person who lived in the past had opinions or values common at that time", which is... not really worth making a big fuss about.

[sturdy pendant]

Yeah, and tbh, most people in the 50's were sexist by default if you compare to today, which you really can't. And Lewis was super religious so the scandal really would've been a relationship with a woman, period.

[full magnet]

Oh, I think it was CS lewis

that rang a bell in my small brain

[full magnet]

the original context was people saying tolkien only wanted white elves or something

So was riffing off that

[sturdy pendant]

No one can really know about that, it's mostly made up because people are butthurt.

Like, so many people are angry because Galadriel is "too badass" cause they wanted a sexy feminine Galadriel.

What is known, during the world war, Tolkien was an avid defender of Jews, which if why his books weren't published in Germany until after

[full magnet]

Oh yeah I forgot about that

Ok so it's totally not tolkien I thought about

Tolkien was based

[idle saffron]

What? Lol

People are so weird

[full magnet]

nerds man

these people could probably explain the entire history of of the balrog and why orcs are born like potatos, but a different shade of skin on an elf? oh hell no. a badass elf that isnt legolas??????? no no no no

[sturdy pendant]

Yeah I've seen posts about it on Imgur and places like that, well, mostly in their comment sections. Galadriel is "too woke" and "too masculine" and these people hate it cause it took away their fantasy of the delicate feminine elf flower who's superpower was love and nurturing.. Yick.

[full magnet]

is galadriel the elf lady in the lotr movies?

[sturdy pendant]

Yes

[idle saffron]

Yeah

[full magnet]

i remember her scaring the fuck out of me

[sturdy pendant]

And in the new show as well

[idle saffron]

And she's a badass in the Hobbit

[sturdy pendant]

The criticism is on the TV show

[full magnet]

the one that pours the water or wahtever right?

or is she the horse lady

[idle saffron]

Yeah, creepy voice in your head

[sturdy pendant]

Probably because she wore armor like every other elf...

[sturdy pendant]

Horse lady was Arwen

[full magnet]

ok yeah

[sturdy pendant]

Though only in the movies

[full magnet]

she scared the hell out of me lol

[sturdy pendant]

In the books it's a male elf but I can't remember who

[idle saffron]

Who plays Galadriel in the show?

[full magnet]

did they throw a fit over arwen in the movies?

[sturdy pendant]

Some new face

[idle saffron]

No, because petty I'm sure

https://tenor.com/view/lord-of-the-rings-rings-of-power-galadriel-morfydd-clark-sword-gif-26784974

That's her?

So lemme get this straight

She's attractive and a badass

[full magnet]

how DARE

NO STRONG WAHMEN

[idle saffron]

Stupid

[full magnet]

i bet they loved the strong lady in mando

[sturdy pendant]

This is "too masculine".

[full magnet]

but she's not even like

[sturdy pendant]

I even commented on one of those comment, that I find her sexy af and pretty sad if they don't.

[full magnet]

she's wearing slim armor

masculine armor is bulky

[sturdy pendant]

That's literally their reasoning. That wokeism is forcing strong female characters.

Just because it ruins their personal fantasies.

[full magnet]

so insane

[idle saffron]

Very odd

[sturdy pendant]

It really is, I cannot understand how people can be like that

[full magnet]

she can dominate me

i'll take that for them it's ok

i'll take the fall here

[sturdy pendant]

😅

[idle saffron]

Same

[sturdy pendant]

I personally have a huge distaste of everything needing to be sexualized.

Some things just are.

[full magnet]

I used to

[sturdy pendant]

You don't have to be aroused by it for it to be good.

[idle saffron]

Nope

[snow zenith]

One thing bothering me from the last episode

[full magnet]

sexualization can be tasteful, but it needs context

usually when people go for sexy they got ALL IN

[snow zenith]

The Númenoreans just happened to have Elven armour bearing the sigil of Feanör that fit Galadriel exactly

mfw

[sturdy pendant]

It can also be a personal thing, not everything has to be shared and then forced that other people need to share those views too.

For someone who's become more flirty and open about that kind of stuff, like when they force sex scenes i'm still like "cmon really"

[snow zenith]

It's the only thing I found irking in the entire show so far lol

[full magnet]

it's like in the middle, it needs context

[snow zenith]

Am enjoying it tho

[full magnet]

sex doesn't have to be a romantic thing either but they always slam that too

[sturdy pendant]

I don't mind sex scenes in TV shows generally, just the ones that have nothing to do with anything, you just get jumped into a porn-like sex scene.

It's super awkward.

[full magnet]

i agree

[idle saffron]

But mah values!

[full magnet]

value a different show idk

[idle saffron]

I want to start Sandman today

[potent plover]

First episode is slow but then it gets good

[sturdy pendant]

Also I used to hate how Netflix captioned some sex sounds. Women were sighing, moaning, groaning, sighing, wailing, singing (joking a bit here now) and then you'd get the man making like one grunt. -.-

[idle saffron]

I watched a trailer and that dudes voice is so good

[potent plover]

Oh yeah its very deep

[full magnet]

like while I think hollywood does too much sex bullshit, I also think sex needs to be more normalized as well

[idle saffron]

Is that modified somehow, or does he sound like that?

[sturdy pendant]

You haven't watched it yet? Ohhhh I am so jealous!

[potent plover]

I think its real

[idle saffron]

Ocean at the end of the lane

Great book

[snow zenith]

Gleam at the end of the lane

[sturdy pendant]

And I mean, I did watch (first 2 seasons, then it got bad) of American Gods and I actually enjoyed the sex scenes in that, they were part of the show, the plot, they were done pretty and most of all, it was equal. You got just as much male nudity as female and the women had normal bodies. It was really nice, and I was not surprised that "certain" people didn't like that show for their sex scenes at all.

[idle saffron]

Gleam at the end of the Code

[sturdy pendant]

I guess some people that enjoy the sex scenes don't like seeing men.

[idle saffron]

Booohoooo

[full magnet]

man naked = gay

Men have sex too

[full magnet]

NO

[idle saffron]

Even though it was a bit "wow you're really showing it all aren't you" :D

[idle saffron]

[sturdy pendant]

Also the... appendages in that show were a bit too well endowed. I feel sorry for every man who thinks that's the expected norm.

[full magnet]

is this the show that replaced all the dudes with stunt penises

[idle saffron]

Big feet eh

I like how people watched Euphoria hoping to see Zendaya naked and she's the only one that doesn't ever get naked (something something contract).

[idle saffron]

Makes me want to smash my monitor

[sturdy pendant]

Yeah, I've avoided it, my friend warned me it's an amazing show but it really puts extreme scenes of addiction and obsession out there

[snow zenith]

I really hate how popular that term is because calling someone a 'colour' is in British history, extremely offensive

[full magnet]

if it's a light, white is all colors

[sturdy pendant]

In my country we've started to use the word "colored" meaning "colorized" or "racialized" meaning that it's just a label put on them, and it's not real.

[idle saffron]

This is part of the reason racism is still around

[sturdy pendant]

Because there are no different races.

[full magnet]

but in actual color theory white is the absense

[idle saffron]

Color isn't the definition of anyone

[ivory edge]

In truth we don't know what no color means. We just said those are colors white seems plain to us not a color

[silver sparrow]

#og > < #serious

[sturdy pendant]

It's hard for me to explain it cause only translation is "colored" but it's not that. It's a verb that we use.

[idle saffron]

As long as we use labels, there will be prejudice

[silver sparrow]

racialized is the closest

[sturdy pendant]

And this is from poc people themselves.

[full magnet]

the difference is a historical one

[sturdy pendant]

Yeah I think so too

Also there IS a cultural difference between these issues in the US and for example in my country. The racism is different. Not right in either case, but it's different.

[full magnet]

i can't agree with that because that's also scrubbing away culture that comes along with that

[sturdy pendant]

Racism in the US isn't about immigrants but against Americans, which makes it a lot more complicated.

I mean yeah there's ALSO racism against immigrants there.

[full magnet]

racism in america is immigrants taking out everything on immigrants

and natives

[sturdy pendant]

We have a past like the US as well, against Sami people. We've done the same thing to them as was done to native Americans.

[full magnet]

but they cant tell the natives apart from the other immigrants, so

[idle saffron]

Good, everyones past is monstrous if you go back far enough

[full magnet]

polynesian culture is largely full of love of harmony and bonding

If culture just leads to wars and racism and fighting, then I'd yeet it

[full magnet]

it doesnt

bigots do

[idle saffron]

Cause that's their culture

[sturdy pendant]

It's easier to understand (but not to accept!) racism in places like my country, where it's about immigrants and refugees. It's a lot more natural instinct to be afraid of outside people coming to change what is yours, but it turns into racism the moment you cannot rationalize those thoughts and shut your head from thinking like that.

[silver sparrow]

inability to accept others different from you is what causes racism and classism

[sturdy pendant]

Yeah.

[full magnet]

everything being the same is not living

that's just north korea

[sturdy pendant]

And I can understand being against immigrants but it's racism when it's not about all immigrants.

My husband is an immigrant but you know, white, so it's different and that always pisses me off so much.

[silver sparrow]

there are 1B ppl in india who are all the same color, ask them about racism and classism

[idle saffron]

Make a new culture where we are all humans

[full magnet]

[idle saffron]

That's not just US lol

[sturdy pendant]

No, but it's big in the US too.

[full magnet]

[sturdy pendant]

Not only religious people do it in the US.
