Stream tonight, playing that god awful final fantasy origins game twitch.tv/gameboomers & ua-cam.com/users/gameboomer - 7 PM EST, be there bros
Thank you mate for Entertaining your fans for years!
I highly apreciate your Work,
And i think that this Video in particular is made in a way that makes it easy and before all NOT BORING to Understand the concepts you find interesting.
Dev, the fuck are you saying about Street of Rage IV? It's not upcoming: it came already 2 years ago for PC and Consoles. I think what you are referring to is a mobile port
'that god awful final fantasy origins game' you say that as if it's a bad thing, the game has the potential to be a memetastic masterpiece as the spiritual successor of Metal Gear Rising Revengeance.
Maybe that's why meeting people half way tends to break people out of there idiologies. Since the chain can only be based on 2 things. Do they agree, or do they not agree.
If you didn't even know the Oscar's were happening then you're likely on the right path.
More like, societally we are on the right path.
Who is Oscar and why is he being talked about
Only part of the Oscar I've watched was the 2 min clip of black on black violence cuz the internet decided to shove that into my face lol
What's the Oscars?

Theres nothing "chad" about attacking someone over a joke you laughed at because your cheating partner didnt like it
Imagine getting so worked up over the use of "Chad" - a fucking internet slang meme word - that you disregard the very likely probability that such a word means that he's being purposefully hyperbolic as a joke.
@@ImortalZeus13 It's not a slang meme word.
Chad is internet mythology, a theoretical god of sorts, representing the perfect man, the divine masculine. Chad is a concept, just as "perfection" is.
When someone uses a word incorrectly, they should be rectified... Doesn't matter if it's memes or not.
The MEME portion of it, is the format: "Virgin vs Chad ".
Example: "Virgin Smith vs Chad Rock"
Before Chad meme became popular, the (Chad) was the dumbass in the wrong portrayed as peak masculinity, while the (virgin) was correct, but depicted as weak.

When Carl Marx said derisively "Religion is the opiate of the masses" he didn't mean it in the way we think of opium IE poison. He existed at a time when opium was in cough syrup available to everyone. What he was upset about is that religion soothed people's souls. It was like how that cough syrup was so powerful one would forget he even had a sore throat. In other words Marx was livid that in a world of suffering religion offered people mercy and peace amidst it all. It made some happy but it could help most at least be content. This was a problem as content people don't revolt. In other words Marx wanted people to live in abject misery until every neo Hegelian resolution was finally complete just as his successor Herbert Marcuse railed against pop culture and consumerism.

Russia is bad. Don't know why conservatives are all about Putin all of a sudden
When you think about it: That’s probably why the whole “People with pronouns in bio have garbage takes” is somewhat accurate. Because only certain types of people do something like that. It’s not a perfect system but you always know the politics of someone who put pronouns in their bio.
>somewhat accurate.
dude..is the N O R M. everytime these garbage say something, you KNOW is very polarizing, egocentric and stupid, and the only normal takes on things are takes that literally everybody agree on it already. those things are the definiton of NPC
The act of displaying pronouns has become a serious in-group/out-group signal, to the point where some people get mad and say they'll unfollow anybody who doesn't do it.
We have the option to choose preferred pronouns and display them on our accounts in the learning software that my college uses, and it has the same result. You instantly know the politics of the people who display them. They all talk and think the same ideas.

“I think you believe gender is largely socially constructed.”
“No, I believe... gender is largely socially constructed.”
huh..
We’ve gone down one of two paths:
Either we stop caring about the lesser things of life focused more on what’s important, such as the family and the local community or we just keep getting more and more depressed and as a result, we don’t enjoy that which we used to. Or both.
Careful, people might think you're some sort of localist (read facist) with an attitude like that.
So you're basically saying we should focus on the tree in front of us, which would be nice if it were so simple. Problem is, we're in a forest, which has countless nefarious groups trying to burn it tf down.

My wife can never understand why I sometimes immediately dismiss people after meeting them once, and I honestly couldn't explain it either. The Peterson clip nails it perfectly though.
Props for using some spicy Boondocks.
Exactly, just let people run their mouth and they’ll indirectly tell you all about themselves. Same when deciding which topics to not discuss with certain people like family members- just toss them a soft ball question and decide if the conversation is worth going further in depth with them or not.
Intelligent people can usually gauge someone else's intelligence with only one meeting. Happens all the time at work when we hire a new person. I can tell if they will be good at the job or not right away.
Sometimes you don't even have to meet them, you can SMELL how boring they are to talk to. They project it with pride.
I'm on the autism spectrum and have a lot of trouble socially, but I have fairly solid pattern recognition. My wife gets on me for disliking certain people, but my sense of a person is usually correct.
"The point of an ideology is to be consistent."
...A consistent set of MORALS. Not a consistent interpretation of everything in one lens. And even then there's a world of difference between "consistent" and "simple."
Yeah, but unfortunately ideology can often push one towards scripted behaviors in today’s cultural environment. I’m a Libertarian, and I’ve met my fair share of wind-up Libertarians.
“Government did a bad, here’s a Mises Institute article about it, do not try to argue with me about it as I will only respond with further Mises Institute articles”
However, Dev is certainly wrong to imply that all sides are even CLOSE to being equivalent in this regards. Being a Leftoid who isn’t an NPC should grant you minority status at this point…
A few months ago "proud boys" was trending under politics. I looked at it and there was a single tweet talking about the Proud Boys. Everything else was about some soccer team and "how proud we are of our boys."

"Actually no, I don't think what you said. But I actually do, even thought actually not, bigot"
This single moment of the interview will forever be engraved in fire in my brain. It just describes the feminist doublethink to perfection.
Propose a challenge, get defeated on your challenge, pretend like you are victorious for denying your own self, recognise defeat while conducting yourself like you have just prevailed and ignoring your own recognition of defeat in the same sentence, all the while acting judgemental and morally superior towards the counterpart.
Absolutely amazing, not even Arkham Asylum could've produced such levels of delusion.

He didn’t perfectly capture it though, gender is mostly a social construct with some biology behind it, all of it piled upon sexual differences, isn’t the same as « gender is a social construct ».
I don’t even know JP would disagree with the take that gender is mostly social with some parts of biological given how many gender stereotypes have nothing to do with biology as far as we know (I’m talking really basic insignificant stuff here, like girls preferring pink and boys blue, that kind of silly stuff that’s mostly probably almost entirely social).
He’d probably disagree if it’s a question of really important gender traits, but gendered traits overall ? Not sure that he would disagree. And not sure many people would disagree or heavily disagree given how broad his answer was.
Will was actually mad that GI Jane 2 wasn't actually coming out and had to slap Chris for getting his hopes up.
Peterson eloquently calling her an NPC is fascinating to hear!
I saw that clip and I just thought it was peak lampshade hanging.
The best part is, he called her out on it and begged her NOT to be an NPC in her response. He begged her to be real with him and utilize her own though processes. And she defaulted to the NPC response anyways.
@@sirquaffler542 She's not a person, she's an NPC.
Asking her to respond like a human being, is like asking Jarl Balgruuf (You know, an NPC from Skyrim) to respond like a human being. :P
It's pointless.

Interesting observation about npcs focusing all their thoughts through a lense. Kinda reminds me of when I used to write. After you've given enough time developing a character you no longer have to write for them. You can just put them in a scene and their actions, thoughts, and dialogue are no longer something you have to consciously craft. They just do or say what they will because that's the lense they're crafted around. A lot of these people seem similar like they just follow the program until the narrator decides their opinion needs to change.
Your post reminded me why I used to find writing stories so comfy. The point where you know your character so well that everything just flows out like water. It feels good when that happens.
I've been weary of trends since I was a small boy. I've always looked at them with skepticism. Whenever I dipped my toes into one, it's always felt artificial. Sometimes my interests align with trends, but I try not to let them lead me.
You have said what I was thinking about posting, good job.
Same, I'm not an introvert by any means, I'm quite socially capable and outgoing, but I'm me, and that feeling was always there. I never did anything out of sheer social requirements - not my parents, not my friends, not school or colleagues - it was by interest and by my own terms - likely for entertainment or educational purposes. I hardly mind what other people think what is right or wrong. I know what is right or wrong for me. You can't strip that away from people.
@@CuT7yFlaM I have a lot of respect for that. I've struggled my whole life to be more outgoing and to worry less about what others think. You've got the right balance there, personable but firm in your own interests and personality. I've had trouble balancing those two ideals. I mean, I can be very polite, but it's basically a trained behavior that I do on impulse regardless of my mood. I guess I'm just a bit mentally scarred from a childhood filled with not fitting in. There's always an internal conflict of "I don't really care about these people's interests and I should follow my own path" versus "maybe if I was more like them, I'd suffer less loneliness, even if being more like them means being a shittier person".
@@TheGreenKnight500 Oh yeah there's definitely also a problem of being too docile to some degree - I'm very polite and agreeable - even not doing something I would approve, I'd try to find a compromise or a common ground just to not say no. A problematic trait. Add to that I also happen to be quite gullible because I trust too easily, which is also a big downside of my outgoing personality. I realized that and now I try to not fall into that trap, but it's such a natural thing to me that I hardly overcome it. But that, like many things, can be worked on if only you think about who you really are, what you owe yourself to be. There is plenty of people out there that can't really define that about themselves, and I'd say that's already quite defining of yourself. That's some Fight Club mentality talk here, but it's required. You can't work on yourself if you don't know who and what "yourself" is, especially if you live by "society's standards".. Introspection is good every now and then, and I can tell you did that by how you speak about you and already flagged the problem from early in your life. That's some therapy approach we all need to make on our own. Living is only worth if you do it the way you want it, not because other people you never met have told you it's better this or that way. How is that living your life...
I wish Will Smith would have slapped Jada instead. That "EnTaNgLeMeNt" clip made me want to drown myself in battery acid.
I got a lot of secondhand embarrassment from that.
He wants Rock to keep his wife out of his mouth. He should have been asking for his wife to keep Marc Anthony and August Alsino out of hers.

On Devs' Olympics comments, I have been a gymnastics coach for 20 years and stopped caring about the Olympics years ago when they didn't do anything about performance enhancing drug use, and it has only gone downhill since then. Sad to see such a great idea executed so poorly
I’ll just point out that people are saying Will was ‘okay’ with Jada’s ‘entanglement’. . .
How he acts in that interview does NOT come off as ‘okay’ to me
Maybe it’s an S&M thing? I could see some dude out there wanting to be dominated by GI Jane.
She will lie, divorce him, take almost all of his stuff and make him pay her more for like a decade, all the while spending his money and fking all of her sons friends.
I think the last time I got excited about the Olympics was when the 2021 Tokyo Olympics opening ceremony played all that video game music. They played First Flight from Ace Combat 5!
Also Song of the Ancient from Nier! Having them play video game music was a surprise, but that was really unexpected.
Every once in a while the trending section does uncover some interesting truths. For instance It's become so commonplace for articles to use the word allegedly (i.e. we can't prove this but someone said it and we REALLY want to repeat it) that I've started to see just the word 'Allegedly' trending. Not because of a hashtag, just because the single word from so many sources trips the algorithm; there's no relation between any of the articles once you click through it.
lol that's kinda fucked up
Just to note because I love the series, and the actual game: referring to 4:55, Streets of Rage 4 is an actual (non-mobile) game and it's been on Steam for a while now. So I guess the mobile game advertised there was just the game being ported to mobile.
I can't speak for the mobile version, but the steam version's pretty great.
Yeah SoR 4 is definitely worth picking up, might even be the best in the series Imo

Imean, they literally allow "Refugees" to compete as a national team, representing every single person who is a refugee in the world.... yes, really... we now have a class based team in the Olympics as the only uniting factor between the refugees, despite lacking commonality in religion, nationality, culture, language or even ideology, they are at least all united in the fact that they are all living outside of their countries of origin and have applied to themselves the legal term of "refugee".
Honestly, as a friendly competition between nations where they put the best of their best against each other means very little nowadays. It is just all virtue signal garbage like what Eurovision has devolved into~
It's hard for me to be invested in anything that's popular these days not because of some cringe hipster mindset but the fact that everything nowadays seems to have sickening levels of either Slacktivist or Corpo cheerleading behind it.

I'm _reasonably_ certain that all the takes like "black on black violence" are just jokes. The predominant leftist take seems to be "violence is acceptable if you mock someone's disability," which is stupid on a number of levels, but I don't know if you can call it "political."

07:50 she can't even say she cheated on him. She's just so proud of how good cheating felt. 🤢
I have to disagree with some of what you said SFO. While it may be cringe to say and it may be whataboutism, but the fact that Will suffered no significant backlash over what he did to the point you have people saying that unless you had a certain amount of melanin in your skin you couldn't criticize him is significant. After all, we do know there'd have been an IMMEDIATE reaction if a Chris made fun of a white guy's wife or if a white guy made fun of Will's wife.
Both situations would've been the white guy's fault and they'd be tossed out of the Oscar's or booed off the stage. This isn't racist to say, just a sad truth, and the reason it's looked through a political lens is because they made it political. It's a sad act that they've made everything political and race based.
That’s very true. This is the most disgusting generation I’ve ever seen
That’s just it. You actually caring about EVERYTHING that may deserve to be cared about, is the very definition of “terminally online”. Emphasis on “terminally”.
when you’re not allowed to not care, they culturally condition you to hate it; what i question is if they’re unaware of what they do or if it’s precisely why they do it

Truth is the most important thing. Make that pure concept your foundation of thought.

It's a bit misleading because he expected her to say trans women are women and she actually went on to say they aren't, and she held the view pretty strongly. If you watch the full interview it's pretty interesting because they've clashed up to then and on that point they find agreement.
My only criticism is that you were wrong on Chris Rock having the fear of god smacked into him. He paused out of confusion thinking his friend was just gonna mess with him but also he considered his career. This is remarked on his brothers standup the other day who hinted with “come on up here if y’all think you’re gonna smack me. I ain’t got shit to lose” his brother is ready to fight 😂🤣. I didn’t even know there was a Tony Rock.
Streets of Rage 4 isn't a mobile game, it's a console and pc game that's getting a mobile port. And you should get your hopes up, it's a great beat em up.
My honest reactions to hearing about "the slap":
1: The Oscars are still happening? People still watch this crap?
2: Ok

The ppl who want you to care about everything should first care about getting their household in order and not antagonize their own friends or family with their obsessions.
I love your advice on giving care for things you actually care about.
Exactly the theory on the book The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
My favorite take of the Smith Rock shenanigans is that it was staged. Pfizer sponsored the Oscar’s and has a drug for alopecia in stage 3 trials. The tin foil hats are entertaining and always find some truth often obfuscated
I think they would stage something like that for more simple reasons.
More like the Oscars are in the gutters and need something to go viral to regain viewers.
Is someone's position being predictable really a criticism of their worldview. All mathematical systems have perfectly predictable answers, yet are true by definition. Could be that predictability in ones thinking is just the result of a worldview with internal consistency. The question is can they show their work, NPCs cannot share their work. They memorize answers on flash cards and dont do the math.
I would say it is. I don't think math is a good analogy for worldviews. I think continuing the lens analogy fits better. how people view the world is through their lens, and their lens is something they've made and had formed as they're growing. now imagine that everyone in the world made their own physical lense by themselves. every single one would be unique. they would have different kicks, blurs, and other imperfections. The way they interpret what's shown through them would thus be unique.
I would say that for the NPCs they are people who had their lens replaced or altered to a more standardized one. they all say the same thing. they all come up with the same answer. etc etc.
@Jinxed Swashbuckler the problem is, their uniform philosophy is not rooted in truth though. It's just them parroting whatever they've been told. There's been no critical thought I to it by the most of the people who spread it.
I highly recommend watching videos from New Discourses. He breaks social justice down and explains it for normal people, reading right from social Justice's foundational papers and creators.
A lot of people aren't talking in a logical train of thought and more like throwing out random sentences. I believe in debates they tend to believe the guy wins who denies more sentences of his opponent while not getting his own denied or something. I don't really understand people. Anyway, so if you are in a debate holding up a card showing the sentence the other guy just said would be like a superblock or something. Like if someone punches you from behind and you just block anyway.
If you are actually having a logical train of thought going and the other guy "predicts" you, aren't you in fact agreeing? I mean not neccessarily, but compare:
"Trains do not have turnable axes so logically ..." "... we have to separate the wheels because the outer one needs to cover more ground ..." "... but this is not stable enough ..."
"Omg trans people so oppressed ..." "... and Brexit is bad because the fishermen don't have a job and climate change is bad because the oceans are overfished already and ..."
I think there two things here. There are issues here that have no logical connection. Like, why can't a trans person be pro Brexit. But I would predict that like 95% of all outspoked trans activists are also against Brexit. I mean, hey, I actually wonder. Statistically we would assume that the split would mirror the general populations tendencies, so 50% of trans activists should be pro Brexit. Similarily though, I do think we could easily also find the same things about Brexiteers.
What this shows is that in your mind these issues are correlated when in truth they aren't. Which shows what we all knew anyway, the huge dominance of the peer group over rational thought. And in that way it would actually be a criticism of their worldview or at least their epistemology.
The second thing is that "bugs" are also replicated. I mean I have to be careful with this but I literally had talks with people who switched from the plight of fishermen to the plight of fishes within five minutes of topic change. Predictable bugs are systematic errors and, as far as science is concerned pretty much a reason to overhaul the entire worldview.
People are looking for something to which the masters of the universe must bow. COVID didn’t cancel flights from SF to DC so that the speaker of the house could continue pretending that she was passing legislation and representing her district. Cross country flights never shut down, but your local elementary school had to. Everyone knows that the trending tab is so curated that nothing truly surprising will ever filter through.
God I've never listened to her speak to Will on that red table before, how selfish do you have to be, so foreign it almost feels evil to me.
That's how it is these days, when a woman tells you she is spiritual or something along these lines, gtf away from her, she will definitely cheat and either blame it on you or act like it is some kind of spiritual journey she has to go through to understand herself better. It's entirely selfish, entitled and shows that she cares only about her momentary impulses and doesn't give a crap about you, and the man certainly doesn't have the same right to go on this "journey".
I was so confused when you said the Olympics where in China. Than I remembered that there are winter Olympics. People don't really care about winter Olympics in my country.
Haha opposite worlds.
I don't know a single person who watches summer Olympics as "swimming and running have way too many events to care about" but everyone I know watches the winter Olympics even if they don't ski or snowboard and the gold medal match for hockey had our bars open and serving at 5 am
@@pitafish I think it's probably because I live In a rather hot country. Winter sports aren't very popular here. Summer Olympics aren't such a big thing either but at least people talk about it
Boondocks had it right. Watching that show as a young mixed race kid was huge for me understanding race and the fact that it doesn’t exist. I used to have the same hairstyle as Huey and I learned nunchuks cause I wanted to be a scholarly niggas who could not only outsmart opposition but destroy it as well.
I’m somewhat proud to say I have never at any point on any form of social media paid even the slightest bit of attention to whatever is “trending” and it’s actually incredibly cringe when you’ll see those dumb tik toks on Instagram of a girl doing a little dance or some shit with text saying “this is my new favorite trend”
I've felt like this for years. That the vast majority of people fall into a handful of categories, and you can know everything about them after talking to their cohorts for long enough.
I still haven't watched that interview, it seems I should. Thank you for putting this all into words
People just want to grill, and there are people who think thats a problem.
I want to find the input line that breaks the NPC code. Some equivalent to divide by zero in old systems.
Then, it would be *mindbreak time*
"What is a woman?"
The Markov Chain analogy spoke to me well, being a common theme of computer science.
I agree, Dev. I'm a bit tired of paying attention to these frivolous things. It's tiresome to even hear about them anymore because it's all so transient and empty. I have my opinions about this drama, but at the end of the day, I truly do not care and I'm tired of being asked to...
Look at how much this nonsense has circulated within a few days and compare it how far more vital issues that will have real and lasting consequences have been overlooked.
the fact that he managed to reference the boondocks is amazing
This has shown me that I got sucked into the Will Smith thing without realizing. I have a teacher who is a leftist and the week before last week he started up a conversation with the class (I'm in high-school btw) about the Oscar's and what we thought about the Will Smith and Chris Rock event. Everyone gave their opinions, I was quietly listening to them, and after a bit my teacher said something about the joke being ableist and I wondered what he was on about. I eventually raised my hand to say that it didn't matter and that it wasn't important, my teacher said "but it's all over the news" I said "that doesn't make it important." I said something else to the effect of, "he made joke, he slapped him," then my teacher said "So when someone makes a distasteful joke and someone goes up and slaps them, it's okay?" I told him that that was not what I said, and after I asked what he meant by ableist, he said the usual mumbo jumbo about "power over Jada because she has alopecia, it is a disease," and I said "So Chris Rock has more power over her because she has no hair," then he said something that amounted to nothing. After all of that, I saw ItsaGundam's video, and finally saw the clip of Chris Rock getting slapped. That led to me going against what I was talking about in class by starting a conversation about it during lunch with the people I sit with and got worked up about it (partially) and felt stupid afterwards. I realized that I got sucked into it and never touched the damned situation again because at this point by getting into it I become no better than the one who tried to put words in my mouth and then backed off when I pointed it out.
You're on the right track, but not quite there yet.
You are correct in your realisation that one should not let such insignificant matters affect you on any significant level. But, that should not preclude you from recognising that others have been affected in such a manner and that this is your opportunity to sow the seeds of doubt and introspection in their heads.
In essence, it is an opportunity to deprogram your peers by tactfully engaging while not letting it get to you.
this stuff makes it hard to work on my own projects. I used to love writing and making board games, did it all the time. but this bullshit of everything needs to be political makes me afraid to publish anything, which makes it hard to even work on. does it even matter how good my story is if all that people are going to take away from it is some political agenda? I'm writing about fantasy hero's beating up robots with magic because that's fun, but someone is going to go "the robots represent X" and that is all the book is going to be.
Well it always has been this way. Tho not in political terms. But ppl always misread and misrepresented media in general.
Dont let this stop you. If woke npcs try saying shit about your game, just say "no u wrong" and refuse to elaborate further.
Nah bro just do it cuz you find it fun. That's the thing about art and stories. People are always gonna have their own interpretation but that shouldn't take away from your enjoyment of creating.
TLDR make art cuz it's fun, who cares what everyone else thinks.

Don't want to put your own work out there because some wokies -might- _will_ call you Hitler v2.0? Alright, don't. Let them win.
That's what they want, after all. **Their** ideas, and only **their** ideas; everyone else gets automagically labeled "racist" or whatever, and summarily suppressed. Exactly how they like it.
Or, you could stop letting them control you, and expose your work in spite of them.
Gotta agree with fourfourseven. If you don’t even try, we know the outcome: nothing
You lose. They win. Personally, I’d love to buy/play your product and I’m sure there’s hundreds of thousands who would as well
Streets of Rage 4 is absolutely on console and PC... d00d, I considered you a gamer. Likely they're plugging a mobile port
Ultimately I think that a totalitarian viewpoint, that the personal is political, that you always have to be engaged, and that by not doing so you are actively an enemy of the zeitgeist, is the winning strategy. A people whipped up in zeal about something are a lot more likely to get what they want through dogged dedication than people saying “uh, well, I don’t really care”.
Apathy is not the antidote to fanaticism.
I love the Olympics but it’s hard to watch with cable cutting, time zone differences, and I’m a summer child not a winter soy boy
I think there’s a discussion I read when talking about nuances of Thucydides’ writing of the Peloponnesian War. It’s about the focus of humanity and ideology, that ideology is the malformed product of people’s search for truth but within the confines on a singular idea.
13:39 I hate that it was clearly a trap. The Terf Trap, because she knew an old guy as Jordan Peterson who doesn't really care about that wouldn't know for sure that there's stupid drama between the radical communities.
Ya Boi Zack has been saying what JP said for years. there's no point being outraged when progs say something dumb. they giving literally the one allowed take. if they said anything else they'd be canabalized. it's not surprising or shocking anymore.
Annnnnd you got a member. Signing up tomorrow. Amazing content and you deserve far more subscribers than you have.
Logically thought out, balanced, well-presented, and also timely and relevant. There is a war for our attention and headspace, for imperative language that commands us to follow whatever tenets unless we be labelled an outsider.
Rationality and again expanding the ends of the spectrums, so we can have both extremes *and* a middle-ground *and* a sliding scale on either side enters back into the mainstream discourse.
No more 'if you don't click, you'll be murdering someone's. More of 'click if you care; if not, that's your choice but you're not, by default, an asshole'.
The best way to deal with Twitter/Facebook Trending tab is to...
NOT USE Twitter/Facebook.
You will be saner for it.
Marcus Aurelius quote? Very nice. And that "old white privileged man" was spot on... Love it!
bro I learned so much in this video thanks.
I've never seen that clip from that video of Jordon P.
Reserve your care for things you genuinely care about.
5:00 Streets of Rage 4 already released on all major platforms last year.
4:25 “they knew what they wrought, do not mistake their intent…” -Gravemind
Bro you actually played the uncensored boondocks clip? Respect. That takes balls.
Hollywood comes down on a lot of opinions they don't like. And children.
Correction on the streets of rage 4 thing: Its a mobile port of a console game. Heard its fuckin' good.
Dev, Streets of Rage 4 has been out for a few years now. They apparently announced a mobile phone version for the game is all.
Great video. For a moment I thought you were gonna talk about Yoshida-P giga chad comments about FFXIV
Wait, the olympics where in China? Last I checked, they were held in Japan, where they played Dragon Quest and Chrono Trigger music
Excellent points. This will require some introspection.
I didn’t expect to see Markov Chains. Solid analysis there :)
Never had a reddit account, but I use it sometimes for "certain things" and the front page is more creepy and one sided every time I see it. Do the people there just not notice it gradually changing over time, like proverbial frogs in heating water?
I can't imagine reddit as SUCH a complete hive that even everyone there is happy about this
BAHJ! ill admmit it: it use it for hornis..beyond that, is a creeps show
What an excellent segue into how and why people should think for themselves. It's honestly why I come to this channel. You don't preach any sort of ideology down my throat. I'm getting sick of it coming from both sides
Had no idea the Oscar's were even happening until the memes began circulating. I was busy playing D&D with my friends at my place.
I don't really think it's a minor thing that It is now perfectly acceptable to assault a public figure, on television in full public view, over a joke. I don't think that's disconnected from the gross cultural shift we see going on
Well done on getting the copyright claim lifted 👍
I think the most recent thing Ron Pearlman has done is to get upset at Florida's anti-groomer bill.
That wasn’t even upset, that was a full out spaz attack.
