Fuck, and I can’t stress this enough, YES!

This post is how I found out. That’s heartbreaking. The frailty of the human form is a cosmic crime.

AI, along with crypto, is getting to the point where even oil executives are like “dudes, the planet…”

This is the most closeted person I’ve ever seen, and I once held the world record for longest hide ‘n’ seek session in an IKEA warehouse.

I’d be all up in them Dead Sea Scrolls adding a preface page with a boilerplate “this is a work of fiction, any similarities to persons living or dead or undead are purely coincidental” disclaimer.

Dr. Frankenstein ass reply.

Nope.

Yeah it’s hard to imagine a more petty and pathetic incel of a god than the one described in the Bible. Genocides entire populations because they don’t love him enough. Nevermind the quintillions of planets and star systems and galaxies other than the rock we live on, it’s the most recent bipedal primate on Earth that he needs affection from, on pain of eternal torment in a place he had to have created himself for that purpose. Even sent his own kid to get tacked to a board so we could be forgiven for not being deferential enough to him, even though he could have just said “meh you’re forgiven”. Or, you know, grew the fuck up and got over himself. Who was he saving us from with his infanticidal sacrifice? HIM! The daft bitch was in debt to himself and had to off his kid in a brutal and humiliating fashion to wipe the slate clean.

And on top of that, he won’t just appear and confirm his existence, which would make everyone fall in line instantly. Instead, we have to infer his existence and base our entire lives on that inference, and the only manual we have to do so was written by dick-mutilating Bronze Age numbnuts who didn’t know shit about fuck.

She’s still playing that “let’s meet in the middle” charade that didn’t do shit for her during her campaign?

Random erections at the worst conceivable time, and Squishy Wilbert Syndrome when stiffness is actually required, makes me think my penis is haunted by a mischievous 11th century sprite called Lomtomp the Rascal.

He keeps saying “this is debated” and “the article fails”, but doesn’t specific where or how. I think he’s just visibly inserting himself into the discussion in order to signal to outsiders that he, personally, disagrees with the genocide claim, no doubt expecting some news coverage of his self-insertion. “Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales clashes with editors on Israel genocide claim!” kinda shit. Doing this futile hand-wringing in public using his public account, and responding to half-a-dozen or so comments to make it look like he’s engaging, is all that’s required for him to be able to look funders and publishers in the eye without being held personally ‘accountable’ to the genocide deniers he deals with.

Fuck off Jimmy 😴 And shout out to the dedicated editors who are schooling the daft cunt on the rules of his own creation.

You could tell me anything about Australia and I’d have little choice but to reflexively believe it. Oh they have a brand of children’s sandals called Flippy Floppy Cunts? Sure, whatever. There’s a shark with gorilla arms holding knives fashioned from goat bones and using them to mug surfers? Of course that’s a thing, no further investigation needed.

Australia is the world’s marsupial pouch filled with equal parts mischief and nightmarish animal terrors.

We’re getting to the stage where normal everyday traits are being attributed to neurological dingleberries. It’s like when people say “only those with Asian mothers know about keeping lots of plastic bags in a larger plastic bag in the cupboard under the sink” even though this is something everyone does.

I’ll replay the game once someone goes in and removes the myriad dead ends that can happen. You aren’t even informed that you’ve reached a dead end, so you spend hours fruitlessly hammering away at it until you give in and check a walkthrough, only to discover that the game is just… over.

😂 amazing show(s)! His earlier radio show “On the Hour” was just as good.

There’s a “famous” gore video showing a Russian soldier being brutally murdered by Chechen rebels. Ya’ll probably already know what I’m talking about, so I don’t need to explain (and if you haven’t seen it or don’t know what it is, don’t bother looking for it, it’s not nice and does you no good to have it on your psychic hard drive). Since seeing that clip in ~2000, I’ve desperately wanted to know the man’s identity and the circumstances in which he was killed. I’ve had people swear to me that they also saw the clip, but the version they saw was quite a bit longer than the ~20-second clip everyone is aware of, and they describe some details that could well be useful in identifying him, but alas this alleged longer version seems to have vanished entirely, if it ever existed. The version we have is obviously heavily-edited, lots of quick cuts and time-jumps, so there is at least a version without all of that, somewhere.

Trust me when I say that I’ve looked into this issue on and off for the last 25 years, and I have heard many bullshit claims about who he is: they’re all wrong and provably so. I’ve watched hundreds (literally) of clips from that conflict that show barbarity of one degree or another, and in doing so I have identified the clips that specific reports and testimonies are alluding to when they claim to have identified the victim. None of them is our guy, it’s always some other video clip where some other Russian is knifed by a Chechen (there’re a lot of such clips).

There was a user on a gore forum who uploaded the Tukhchar massacre (safe click) video in full, and he claimed to have the full version of our mystery clip, but refused to post it and grew increasingly hostile the more people asked him for it, eventually taking his ball and going home by stating his intention to never post it because people were mean to him. He was obviously a bullshitter who had a few good uploads and decided to use that momentum to generate hype around this other ‘holy grail’ clip which he almost certainly did not have. Other than that one prick, nobody online has access to the full video or the identity of the man. At least, not on the English-speaking internet.

I’ve seen a lot of awful videos on the net, but there’s something about that one in particular that really energised me to find out who he is. I guess it being the first video of that kind I ever saw would probably have something to do with it, but it’s also just so fucking cold. You could sense the all-consuming hatred in the killers in the way they staged the scene and the matter-of-fact way they slaughtered him. Just pure inhumanity. There are “worse” videos, there are drug cartel videos that would make a Spanish Inquisitor lose his lunch, but man, that Russian dude is always lingering in my mind.

I recently made an Unpopular Opinion post about this (TL;DR I’m supportive of remakes/reboots if done with genuine passion for the material, just as I am with cover versions of songs or transplantations of stage plays to modern settings/Disney cartoons, etc.):

https://lemmy.world/post/35309322

The originals aren’t going anywhere (unless you’re George Lucas 😒), and there are new films coming out every week from all over the world, the reboots/remakes are like less than 1% of what gets released in any given year. Marketing and social media can make things seem bigger and more pervasive than they actually are. Having said that, I’d honestly be happier if the number was more like 5% (with the aforementioned caveats about passion, talent and quality).

But yeah, there are lots of remakes/reboots that are borne of pure cynicism and boardroom sociopathy. Fuck those. But they aren’t the only ones on offer. Baby/bathwater.

The Steam forums are the most repugnant and racist-filled psychotic right-wing shitholes I’ve ever encountered (and I once went to the Stormfront forums). Genuinely, Steam forums exhibit the most pure and concentrated anti-woke, “every single thought in my head was placed there by Ben Shapiro”, “blacks are the real racists”, x-phobic bigoted brain cancer on earth. I block them where I find them, report the ones that seem actionable, but it’s like trying to hold off a tidal wave with a tennis racket.
