Quote:We have thousands of ‘motion captured’ animations for our male footballers and when you apply many of these animations onto female bodies… well… they kind of move like cowboys.

Women’s body shapes are different to men’s and so is their bone structure, so we have no choice but to go back to the beginning and recreate all of our existing motion captured animation data using female players.

Yes, this is erasure of "Magically Gender Swapped People" (MGSP). What about them? They exist and weren't born that way.

Pretty much what the title says, more games should have trans women characters (and trans men as well, but I want to focus this thread on trans women) in important and playable roles!

More fighting games should have trans characters!

We should have more canon trans women player characters in RPGs (honestly, their just should be more diverse canon leads in RPGs, not just player created ones, more stories about lesbians, gay men, black bi men, Non-Binary Autistic leads etc) and more trans characters in important roles.

Their should be more sports games where you can play as a trans person, whether it be a fantasy sport or a real life sport, especially in age where more and more sports organizations are showing how truly cowardly, transphobic and pathetic they are. Suck it to them, show trans people have their place in sport.

Nintendo should use Birdetta (why is it that people forget that "Birdo" is her deadname and Birdetta is the name she perfers to be called in the SMB2 Manual?) more often and I realize they don't like crossing over characters from the Paper series to the main series (why?) but I would love Vivian to reappear.

THERE SHOULD BE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!

Quote:The stock market needs to be decoupled from tech/digital companies. They don't accurately (at all) mirror the current economic landscape.

The biggest stock market should only include companies that correctly correlate the current economic situation of the country (retailers, manufacturers, resources, etc.)
This might be the most retarded thing I’ve ever read. 

The purpose of the stock market isn’t to act as some kind of barometer of the health of the economy.  Why would you even want it to do that? It is a vehicle to gain approximately 10% in value per year over a long term. It’s a tool for 25 year olds to turn $10,000 into $400,000. 

What is the reasoning for excluding high growth companies from this tool for retirement. Other than petty saltiness.
Like this dude has to mean indexes like the DJIA or S&P500 when he says "the stock market" right?

Quote:I mean, it wouldn't be an issue if government actually did it's job and pushed antitrust regulations.

The markets are lopsided because it's been policy since the 1980s to allow consolidation and rent keeping.
Can this dude even name a single company he thinks this should apply to that is somehow causing the stock market to "decouple" from the larger economy and how it could be reasonably be broken up into entities that would compete with each other in the same industry? (Or how more companies from these industries in the stock market would "realign" the stock market with the "actual economy"?) Like the problem with the stupid Microsoft antitrust still applies to nearly every tech company, breaking them up will just destroy the product not create a competitive market. And probably will destroy the market too as now the government has to micromanage every single company in it with every single update they make to every product many of which are priced at literally free. Is the government going to bring back the old Roosevelt anti-trust doctrine that pricing things too low to consumers needs to be stopped by the government for the good of large corporations?

Not a single person in that thread even seems aware of what global monetary policy has been for the last few decades. lol

I wonder whether Arthur Gies covered up his Polygon tattoo from the Press Reset video.

I thought of creating a Game Journalism thread when I joined. I used to spend time lurking QuarterToThree's game journalism thread and people here are cool and have interesting opinions.

But I just don't care about games media anymore. Read 0 websites, listen to 0 podcasts, watch zero streamers, watch 1 YouTuber. I used to read and listen to a lot but they chased me away and it's not like I was a Gamergate person.

Someone please tell Patrick that absolutely nothing of value was lost and if games "journalists" want someone to blame they should look in the mirror. 

Also Nintendo intentionally killed games journalism when they created Nintendo Direct. 

That was in response to the absolutely biased coverage they used to get in the "Nintendo is teh kiddeh!!11!!" era.
Quote:If his base was surprised by [his opposition to a ceasefire in Gaza], perhaps they hadn't been paying enough attention. While Israel had not been a prominent issue in his various campaigns, Fetterman had been talking about his support for the country for years. "I'm not really a progressive in that sense," he said while campaigning in 2022. "There is no daylight between myself and these kinds of unwavering commitments to Israel's security." Still, it wasn't until October 7 that it became clear Fetterman was the most outspoken Israel hawk in his party, offering constant and unconditional support for the military action in Gaza. Early on in the conflict, 16 of his former campaign staffers wrote a letter — anonymously — saying they found his full-throated support for Israel to be a "gutting betrayal." Jentleson had taken to defending Fetterman on X from such criticisms, posting, "The thing about being a staffer is that no one elected you to represent them."


But it wasn't just staffers who were upset. There was also Fetterman's wife, Gisele, who had become something of a political celebrity in her own right: She is a kindhearted philanthropist (the proprietor of a "free store" in Braddock that gave away goods and clothing), a formerly undocumented immigrant from Brazil, and a vocal progressive. In early November, just weeks after the attack, Gisele arrived at her husband's Senate office and, according to a staffer present, they got into a heated argument.
Quote:One former staffer recalled overhearing Gisele on speakerphone that December saying to Fetterman, "Who did I marry? Where is the man I married?"

In our conversation, Fetterman downplayed any supposed arguments with Gisele, telling me that she "has her own voice" and that he would never try to change her views, even if they differed from his. "I think that's very common in political marriage," he said. In a statement, Gisele suggested Jentleson was part of a conspiracy to damage her husband's reputation, saying Jentleson fed her "scary, untrue stories about John's health."

Thinking 

The guy seems to be a nutcase, regardless, but it sounds like his ex staff are also backstabbing assholes (or the wife is Awesome ). The article trying to focus in his Pro Israel stance while admitting he was always in favor of Israel is weird as hell.

ERA bitching more about him being anti Palestine than being a mentally unwell person as a Senator is like always… Mike
