dystopia is when you limit your child’s exposure to pornography. wtf

No joke has ever been improved by explaining it straight after but that’s a little bit harsh

Stop kinkshaming

No. Getting off on abuse and degradation is despicable

To add to this, repeats with added sign language were (are?) often broadcast late at night because you were meant to set your video to record them to use as teaching materials. wasn’t just sign language, a lot of the videos shown in school was stuff that had been taped from 3am

Sexuality being normalised isn’t a bad thing but have you seen the state of porn lately? the front page of any given porn tube site is such that you cannot have a wank in peace without seeing abusive ‘taboo’ stuff mostly around incest and women being spat on and strangled. I can’t believe that this is some agenda being pushed, they produce this content according to demand. This is to say nothing of the even darker stuff with revenge porn and trafficked teenagers etc. Porn can be fine if ethically produced, the current state of it is fucked up

shit gimmick

I remember reading the change of heart by the environmental activist / journalist George Monbiot[0] some years ago when he described in public why the fukushima disaster changed his opinion on nuclear power[1]

It’s old but worth a read and is the reason why I still think that although the industry might be run by cunts (name one that isn’t) nuclear power isn’t a bad option in/of itself

more likely he thought ‘video nasty’ was slang for porn (unless of course it was a joke)

Just tried using only Firefox and uBO, that link and the main page load correctly first time and on refresh. Checked with default filters only and default plus annoyances and both were fine. Do you have any other ad blocker / content filter running at the same time?

Good suggestions here, I disliked Greedfall* and KOA as well, but found Dragon’s Dogma so good that I finished it on xbox and again on pc. If you like playing for the story it’s pretty barebones but the ending is great, and the combat and character building (+sidekick building) are better than anything else. it holds up pretty well for a 2012 release, but make sure to play the Dark Arisen version as it added easier fast travel. It is bound to be on sale as the sequel comes out in March

*Greedfall is much more story driven but you can’t avoid occasional turn based combat

it’s short and to the point

it’s not though is it? just continue to say twitter, everyone will know what you mean

Not saying it doesn’t happen but I’ve seen this said a few times now, and have never heard of anyone who actually refuses to clean their arse. Have I just lived a sheltered life or what?

When I was looking for a new phone I gave up and bought a usb c dac/amp from Fiio. Ended up buying a phone from Sony which does have a 3.5 port (and sd card too) but continue to use the dongle anyway as it sounds better. Use it 2-3 times a week

Honestly expected to roll my eyes at the article (especially as it’s from the times) but this looks like a great initiative and Kariem El-Boghdadly who designed it, from an admittedly brief search for him, seems to know his onions. Not bad at all

I semi remember an interview with the guy from nickelback who said (obviously paraphrasing) that he studied the songs that reached number one in the rock chart, and noted that, ok they have this tempo, they have a key change here, etc etc, and set out to make a song that had those qualities. very successfully as it turned out.

there’s the same sort of essential cynicism (and subsequent success) with the oatmeal

I agree with the point but it is kind of funny to see the oatmeal, the nickelback of comics, complaining about it

40 years counts as quite a long time in american history i suppose

this is fair but then why hold a public vote at all when it has next to no chance of affecting the outcome anyway?

Starfield was 60 pretty ok hours on game pass, I personally have nothing against it, don’t care about it much. But those who actually give a shit about The Game Awards: why? Slim list of nominees, several categories total bollocks anyway, judges vote worth 90% against 10% crumbs to the public vote ( see ‘how are winners selected’ https://thegameawards.com/faq )
