Oh God don't remind me


I already predicted that the Switch won't sell as much as Nintendo fans think it will, Friday is gonna be a bloodbath

Yooooooo I was reading some posts the other day and folks still in the Wii days, acting like the Wii U didn't happen. End of the day Nintendo has to sell people on a Tablet, and why people should get one over an ipad

Like, after the marketing debacle that was the Wii U and Nintendo's need to create a fake shortage of NES Classics to appear as if they are selling them faster than they can be made, I don't trust them to do anything competently. But the Switch will be the console of the future. Sure.

I can already see "My switch is covered in dust" threads
 
I admit, the switch looks pretty neat, but Nintendo needs to do a damn fine job to market this thing, or they might have another Wii U on their hands. And they also need to keep the switch stacked with games, that shouldn't be too hard what with combining two divisions into one and all that. I wish Nintendo luck, but something tells me they are gonna need more than luck. But that's a story for another day.

Also, off topic, but watching a pretty good machinima series about fallout lore really does get to you. But seriously though, watch the storyteller series on YouTube if you want to look into the lore of the fallout series.

Lol that trans thread died (for now) with someone being sad they can't talk about trans folk from a radical feminist perspective without fear of being perma banned aka they probably wanted to talk about how folks like me don't exist and are just ultimate form of patriarchal oppression of "real" women

Blue Ocean strategy is still in play. And all of the same expectations for manufacturing and distribution, and the way that they handle UI and software development will be the same. They aren't about to be beaten in their own walled garden. Any speech they have about them moving their system forward in a socially progressive manner is already disposable because they're coming in behind all of the curves again.
Their marketing so far has been towards "grown kids", but in reality their systems will still operate on the level of a child that needs to be safe guarded. Thoughts.

STOP SHITTING ON MY MOTHER'S HEADSTONE
People seem to be looking forward to Beauty and the Beast. I can't bring myself to care.

Maybe it's because I never really cared about the animated movie. Maybe it's because I don't care about Emma Watson.

People are like "this is going to be huge" and I just have no desire to see it.

I feel this way about Disney movies.

Im getting a switch for sure but I can't forsee it being the savior that gaming side wants it to be. The biggest problem is lack of 3rd parties and the switch power/design/tablet my not do it any favors.

Yep

Kink shaming himself..SMDH..

That kink is more up the PS4's alley. Thanks to GAF's nature of having.....well nature in it
 
Lol when I challenged that person they said they weren't going to continue the discussion they started...

Just wants to play the trans folk are oppressing me insinuation card lol.

Maybe those assholes should realize no one gives a good goddamn about their sorry ass opinions. And yeah, that has been going around lately and I'm sick of it. Those people wanna talk some slick shit, well I bet there are some other sites more to their liking. And I also bet that no one will miss them when they leave.
 
I haven't been able to do shit today, write, draw, attempt to code, design. It's just not working out.

Take a personal day. Just relax and give yourself that.

My thoughts exactly. I never cared for Beauty and the beast. It was a pretty weak follow up from the little mermaid and right before Disney hit its peak with Aladdin and the Lion king.

Now fact it being a live action version.. Pass

There's always this weird mix with the Nintendo crowd. I can see it doing well and being a welcome addition for those who want to play Nintendo games. I don't see it taking over and dominating the market to where there's a sudden shift in 3rd party development.

If that couldn't happen with the Wii I don't get why folks think that will change.

That being said I'm trying to get 2 at launch..
 
I didn't even like Bad and Boujee at first but now I listen to it every day >.>

Maybe because I watched most of the Harry Potter movies but I never cared about Emma Watson

I fucking hate TERF*s with the fire of a thousand suns. Transwomen are women, and that is all. If you are not for all women, then you are not a true feminist.

I didn't even know this was a thing until I was talking to some friends about guys identifying as feminists and one of them brought this up as a thing. I don't know why I was surprised, people always wanna exclude somebody.

Had never heard that term before now. Added to the lexicon.

Feels like forms of exclusion within groups fighting for equality is just as prevalent as there are groups fighting for equality to being with.

Yeah, somebody always think the pie is smaller than it is, and don't want other people to have a piece.

In brighter news: People slagging on that "hidden fences" fail by Jenna Bush (had to be a Bush, man):

Her tearing up on the Today show was a bit melodramatic.

My favorite response.
 
Both of my nieces about to grow up and evolve into super Hoteps.

Asking my brother in law why he married a white woman.

Their momma ain't even white!!! She's a super light skin blasian. Smh. She the Michael Evans of the family.

I think damn near everybody in my family in my parent's generation has a white wife or husband at this point. All us nieces and nephews are mixed
