i consider making and spreading “i’m just a girl” “girl math” “girlfailure” content and rhetoric to be a form of misogynistic hate speech. like what else can you call repeatedly linking womanhood to failure and stupidity

Can you just call yourself a dumbass and be done with it

A quick history:

- In 2014, the developers at Monolith Productions created Shadow of Mordor, a Tolkien game, where you played as a random ranger (the guys Aragorn ran with for a while) who gains the power to revive from death by Celebrimbor.

- The game featured a brilliant game mechanic called the Nemesis system. If an orc killed you, not only would that orc remember you, they’d be promoted within Sauron’s army gaining new abilities and commanding their own squads. If you defeated an orc but failed to kill him, that orc would remember you and seek personal revenge. Some promoted orcs would gain rivalries with others and infighting could occur.

- Shadow of Mordor became famous for the Nemesis system, as players saw the rest of the action game as a distraction from the real game: operating from the shadows to build the career of their favorite orc nemesis and create a true archenemy to have a proper showdown with. Sabotaging other orcs, purposely dying to their nemesis to hone the ultimate enemy, etc.

- Shadow of Mordor was a resounding success. Monolith returned 3 years later with Shadow of War, featuring an even more complex Nemesis system that allowed players to recruit and train their own orc army and even send them to infiltrate Sauron’s orc army. Enemy orcs with experience vs the player also start learning the player’s habits and attempt to counter them in battle.

- Shadow of War wasn’t received as well as Mordor, but the improved Nemesis system carried the game. At the time, many were convinced the Nemesis system would be a major step forward for enemy AI in games when more developers would learn how to replicate it.

- That doesn’t happen, because parent company Warner Bros filed a patent for the Nemesis system in 2016, two years after Mordor, and was granted the patent in 2021, making it legally risky for other game developers to attempt to create their own Nemesis system equivalent.

- Instead of funding a third game with the Nemesis system or doing literally anything with the patent, Warner Bros killed Monolith (and two others) on February 25 2025 and canceled their Wonder Woman game. They still keep the patent though.

- they killed Monolith for this

one of my top ten french behaviors is that i find it deeply jarring to see croissants (as a whole) be considered as “pastries”. a Pastry is an éclair or perhaps a millefeuille or lemon tart or macaron. it is colorful and sugary and generally dainty (not always) or indulgent (not always). croissants (including chocolate/almond croissants) are Not! Pastries. but carmine, you cry! what are they then? VIENNOISERIES. like wien. you know. the city. we stole them from the austrians like a william years ago. no yeah no it Is a stupid name. still not a Pastry however,

the humble Croissant will sate you in a pleasant but ultimately useful way. it is an Efficient and Unexpensive helpmate for hungry children after school and lovers who want to treat their beloved to a breakfast deserving of the name after a beautiful night and tired grownups who want to find a Reliable and Unexpensive reason not to Kill Themselves and get them through the day.

the frivolous Pastry will be bought and consumed by Relatively Moneyed Workers on their Company-Subsidized Lunch Break, Families who visit their In-Laws on Sundays, and Lovers wishing to Court their Beloved in an Ambitious and Elegant Manner,

still amazes me that by season 45 or whatever, Supernatural was being exclusively watched by delusionally hopeful women with flamingo-salinity tolerance for bad writing and the creators still couldn’t pander to them because maybe there was 1 straight guy out there still accidentally watching it

It’s been long enough for me to reveal the incredibly funny thing about this post, which was I was trying to think of a way to launder a cool flamingo fact into something I thought Tumblr would re-blog. i don’t care about the show. at all.

Just spent over an hour on a customer support line talking to half a dozen different people across five separate transfers, and the final resolution was that they were unable to help me because at some point in that process I’d somehow been transferred to their Australian branch. I didn’t even know they had an Australian branch.

I wonder if they just transfer everyone they don’t want to deal with to Australia.

it’s time to create a fake distinction between squashed and squished where one of them is along a horizontal plane and one of them is along a vertical one and seeing how far i can take it

squished is the vertical one. and a helpful mnemonic is that i is a very narrow letter. because it got squished

MAN 2 God! I think she’s right! They are marigolds!

MAN 1 I may not know my flowers, but I know a (yells in her direction) bitch when I see one!

It’s back!

I looked this up because I had to know what it’s from. It’s a film called The Gay Deceivers (1969), and it’s about two straight men who, seeking to avoid the draft, claim to be gay, but then have to keep up the pretense when the army places them under surveillance.

The man in the red cardigan in the clip was played by Michael Greer, who was openly gay himself - unusual for the time. He actually worked closely with the director and rewrote much of the film’s dialogue to reduce the homophobia and make it more realistic. As a result it’s quite progressive for its time, having a gay character, played by a gay man, living in a happy same-sex relationship, which is more than a lot of media offers us today.

Plus the clip is delightful.

I just needed this again.

I have a lot of gripes with the admin culture of discord users but easily the worst thing is the proliferation of channels. You do not need that many channels. You are 100 people. Entire IRC networks have fewer channels than this. Show some restraint.

You, discord admin. Every day, find the channel that hasn’t been used for the longest time, kick everyone in it, hide it, and keep doing this until someone notices. Congratulations.

I have a limited number of channels and the discord has responded by creating an endless twisted network of threads

They have a thread dedicated to keeping track of the threads

they truly crave a forum don’t they

We used to have it all

it’s so weird because forum backends like phpBB are still right there to be used, if people would pull their fingers out and write better anti spam plugins for them - like the same forum software we were merrily using 14 years ago is available to us so easily still

i cant stress enough that forums DO exist if you know where to look, and if they dont exist for what you want go make them!
