The number of people who can be provoked into responding to every bad faith post on social media is depressing.
You can s-l-o-w-l-y explain that they're being provoked, that no real conversation is happening and they're being milked for engagement, and they'll nod then immediately do it again.

This happens every time Bethesda runs an update that breaks one of the many script extender mods (FO76, Starfield, Skyrim, etc). The people who work on them do so on their own time, only see donations in return and get harassed like mad.
The community is full of jackasses.
To clarify why I feel bad:
Tomorrow, their forum posts, comment threads, and email inboxes are going to be FLOODED with batshit fucknuts who are mad that something Bethesda did broke a third party mod and will be demanding a mod team that works for donations fix it immediately.
And remember, if you're on Steam and already using F4SE, there's a simple way to prevent the game from updating until F4SE gets a fix: www.gamerevolution.com/guides/97573...

I feel bad for the folks behind the Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE). It's a bedrock mod that dozens of other mods rely on. Tomorrow the next gen update is going to break compatibility until they can find time to fix it.
Maybe go toss them a donation.

Some of us remember when our country was attacked and in response we attacked millions of civilians who had fuck all to do with it, and here's the kicker:
We realized it was a moral atrocity and have the goddamn decency to be deeply ashamed and never want to see it happen again.
Then: "Oh neat, they're bringing back the cartoon from when we were kids, that's cool I guess."
Now: "JESUS FUCKING CHRIST WHAT THE FUCK"

Every week they keep pushing things far beyond where the cartoon was allowed to go back in the old days, and it's fucking hypnotic.

While Bethesda is over the moon at a Fallout resurgence, the complete falloff of interest in Starfield has been stunning.
A few of the regular Bethesda YouTubers I follow made maybe one video about Starfield, then immediately went back to Fallout content.

I want to point out that the only time we've ever confirmed that Elon Musk actually drove any kind of car in his life, he destroyed it while driving without insurance.

You don't need to be in Mississippi to celebrate Confederate Heritage Month, simply go to your nearest armed forces representative and surrender.

WaPo, the WSJ and the NYT have all burned their own reputations alive over the last eight years and finding out this has made them irrelevant to the powerful is making their political reporters publically melt down.
They literally cannot function without access journalism. It's hilarious.
It's so goddamn frustrating because it's a conversation we need to have and atheists do get their share of shit in society, but these fucknuggets have just made it impossible to have that talk because they're fucking *the worst.*
it's really telling when a bunch of the guys who literally invented new atheism are coming out as either converted or "secular" christians now

The Blair Witch Project was on the cusp of what would become "new media," and it displayed what would be a recurring theme: screwing artists, writers and performers over by virtue of the fact it didn't technically fit prior contractual definitions.
They got NO residuals.
Sorry for delays, I had to go mucking around in the crawl space today.
Going to get myself cleaned up and then it'll be time for Stardew Valley. See you soon!

I really don't know how to explain to kids born after the internet that every single day of our lives didn't used to be a constant barrage of scams.
Like if somebody was ripping people off that shit would become national news.
If you need a YouTube video to explain the ending of a Spider-Man movie or something I feel like you might also need someone to walk with you in the rain so you don't look up to see where the water's coming from and drown yourself
I mean I'm beginning to feel like there's a whole bunch of people you can still fool with peek-a-boo
The prevalence of "Ending Explained!" videos on YouTube for films and shows with very concrete and unambiguous endings makes me feel as though we don't just need to teach media literacy, we need to teach people to translate visual imagery into abstract thought.

Just letting the students have their say and move on would have been the smart (albeit manipulative) play to make.
But someone either in or above the administration got their nuts into a knot over this and decided to cause a clusterfuck.
They're practically asking students to escalate. The best thing they could have done was largely ignore this.
