Not now thank you. There is a spanish place here who's is outstanding, I just can't get away with spening less than 150, if the whole damm family comes along.


Ethel, this recipe wouldn't make you spend more than $30 and if you double it, it feeds every one for no more than $40. But ok. No problem.

That whole Gamergate thing has me sick and tired of people in the internet.

Seriously, a movement without organization, goals, or focused motives? Why in the fuck should I take that seriously?

I see that it's still going and at this point, I don't know what the issue is exactly. Is it journalism in the gaming industry? Is it Zoe Quinn sleeping with a reporter or several? Is it about her ex being abused by her? Feminism? Sexism? What is it about?

It's about complaining.
"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."—former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman

It's a report thread but I'm not involved with it. I didn't post but I almost felt like it.

It would be spam, you could created a discussion thread about it, but you have to a general discussion, not a specific one.

It's quite alright then. I wasn't sure so I didn't post, although it was related to what was being reported but as I wasn't involved, I preferred to err on the side of caution.

Some guys keep telling me "well what do the alleged victims who go and cry on talk shows have that Gamergaters don't?" and my reply simply is "they have the easier job to prove that your movement is bullshit and you have no interest in an honest discussion about journalism and no serious intention on talking, that you're just bitching and that you have nothing to contribute, but when someone points this out to you you are not above making threats and releasing information of your opponents".

And it's true, the people who go on these talk shows are bringing awareness to the movement, but not the type of awareness people would like, not the awareness they desire, and the people who are on the side of gamergate have done nothing but navel gazing.

I thought this was ZQ getting death threats from some gamergaters or 4chan (although someone said 4chan had nothing to do with this) because it was found out that she slept with some journalist to promote one of the games. But then her ex being abused by her was brought to the fore, and then someone else went on to talk about the plight of abused men and someone else went into feminism and I just lost the thread.

The various webzines and webcomics I've read about the subject are unanimous in proclaiming that the whole idiotic and criminal GG movement is a festering cesspool of human filth. Granted, they tend to be a bit more diplomatic than that.

Indeed, that's the picture they paint, but are they wrong though?

See, many people are comparing this to feminism in that feminism is also not centralized, but there's a vast difference between feminism, the civil rights movement, and gamergate. The main difference is that these people had a unifying voice, a unified message, and they made organizations and groups to deal with being unified. The Catholic Church has the Vatican, Islam has the Qu'ran, the prophet Muhammad who they seek to exemplify, and many upon many years of existence and organization.

Gamergate doesn't even have that, they have no cohesion.

Which pretty much is the same as telling them that they are pointless, so I assume they respond verociously to that statement of yours.

All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.
