Given the situation that caused a new General Chat thread to be made, would it not make sense to have an IK or two around to help out while you're busy doing non-Mod stuff Jerusalem? Or are IKs restricted to a thread? IDK how they work. Edit - Also thanks for the condolences on the job offer going south. I'm a bit bummed but I'm sure I can find another job easily.

That "Don't criticize the Last Jedi lest you be viewed as a racist" guy was weird and I'd like people to not be accused of heinous stuff for not liking a poorly written movie. That said, Gremlins 2 is a masterpiece and I'll fight any of you over that.

Junpei Hyde posted:The Last Jedi is a good movie, imo I'm cool with people feeling that way. Just don't yell at me if I say it's not. I also really disliked Rogue One and Solo so maybe I'm just not a big Star Wars fan. Changing topics, is the new Netflix show for Dark Crystal any good? I haven't watched much TV in the past 4ish months and need some shows to watch on my flight across and then back over the Pacific in 2 weeks.

Well poo poo. Then what are some good shows to be watching? Mandalorian I'm already watching and I'm not super into it despite liking the premise and every about Pedro Pascal & Jon Favreau. The Boys Season 2 won't be out by then obviously. Jack Ryan S2 was not super fun compared to S1 so that was a let down and I really liked Clear And Present Danger so the setting/bad guy tropes weren't the issue for me.

That's so lame. If they ever do an Anansi Boys adaptation he needs to be on at least the wroting staff. He wrote such a great portrayal of Mr. Nancy.

American Cancer Society. This is a little unknown thing, at least to me before benefiting from it this past summer, but they use their money to set up basically dorm facilities for patients nearby a cancer center. It makes it super easy for people doing their treatments to get to and from an appointment as they can stay at the dorm just down the block from the hospital and not worry about traveling far to get to a place to relax and recover. Plus the biggest benefit is, it's 100% free for the patient. You just need to be lucky enough that the dorm you're looking to use has a vacant room.

I started off 2020 by sitting by a pool and forgetting about both Bellator & Rizin doing a year end event in Japan and then reading the results only to laugh hard at Bellator. Also finished a christmas book my brother got me on Jigoro Kano which was a fascinating read.

(blood, nudity, swearing etc) Blood no, swearing no, nudity I don't think so but I was playing it on the plane and when it got to the bits I recall there being nudity I put the screen face down on a table to avoid awkwardness. Really what they need next for the Switch (and mobile phones) is Gwent. Because thats the best card game.

Well then they should hurry that up since I've been waiting for mobile phone Gwent for what feels like 5 years and I'm not going to have any more free time as I get older. I also watched The Witcher show on my phone and yeah that was good. A bit off and not perfect but a solid show. I really hope they improve pacing and other nitpicky issues I had with the first season for the 2nd.

I've received an additional (cumulative) 4 hours of delays across two airports on my way back to Asia. I left my house at 1:20pm Friday, I have another 3 hours before I can board a 14 hour flight across the Pacific. Ask me anything about probably being as close to Holden Caulfield as I ever wanted to be (at least based off what I can remember from that god awful book).

SamuraiFoochs posted:Wait has there been another new announcement? The last I saw was basically "FYAD is dead because it's bigoted trash, I was an idiot for giving so many chances, if you're mad you can't post slurs gently caress off" which, I mean yeah it's late but I wouldn't call it toothless. My post preceeded that one and was referring to Cyranno's announcement. Now that FYAD is dead, which I would have preferred not to have happened and instead actual consistent and good probations/bans on lovely behavior, things can at least progress towards "not being terrible." Edit - By my saying "i didn't want FYAD closed" i meant it as, if it was good and funny without being bigoted/harassing it should have stayed open but apparently it's members couldn't meet that high requirement.

Drew McIntyre posted:apparently dickeye, who used to be a bad poster here, caused all of this. i'm not surprised Benghazi 2 has said in the past they would prefer to be referred to as their current name and not the former name for a reason that relates to them being a teen at the time they posted as dickeye or something so i think itd be nice not to refer to them as a name they no longer want to be referred to by. Also they weren't the cause for it as PPJ has had a history of being at odds and lovely towards CSPAM and this is a continuation of that.

WSAENOTSOCK posted:Whaaaaaaaat is happening? TV Zombie posted:again...what happened? The TLDR is Party Plane Jones (D&D mod) has been called out for months over questionable behavior towards CSPAM. This led to them being told not to go into CSPAM and moderate it (think SAS mods loving around and being petty in RR). Then this continued to be an issue and ppl kept demanding PPJ answer for their lovely behavior eg. probating Benghazi 2 for calling a (at the time) mod of Tabletop Gaming an idiot in D&D for thinking a billionaire is actually telling the truth about "not paying for access to a candidate" after a big multi hundred thousand dollar dinner was held for that candidacy. Anyway it eventually led to Koalas March posting about hownactually PPJ is doing good things because they have been secretly tracking nazi ex-goons on discord etc and giving mods a heads up about "attacks" (while somehow also missing all the FYAD stuff). Someone the posted screens of PPJs posts on discord where they posted gore videos from Brazil laughing at them on allegedly nazi sympathetic doscords etc. so people started to heavily mock PPJ and the mods who stood up for him until PPJ posted a detailed post about how they've been an "undercover" spy to catch nazis etc on discord. People also mocked this because PPJ was posting on discord under their SA name so their spying was pretty terrible. PPJ also changed their avatar to Christoph Walz from Inglorious Basterds as another cheeky form of condescension towards CSPAM. Then they decided to permaban themselves. Thats about the gist of it. Oh and PPJ was a mod picked by R Guyovich who also turned out to be a genocide denier who got outed when CSPAM got pissed at him for going into CSPAM and starting poo poo with the regulars there.

Jerusalem posted:On a completely different note, I finally caught up on The Witcher. I thought it was pretty good right up until the last episode. I liked that too but what a weird loving ending, it felt like they ran out of time while shooting or thought they had another episode of something, and just quickly wrote a 30 second wrap-up/cliffhanger for season 2. The best way to describe the season was you're viewing parts of a broken mirror and slowly it is being put back together but yeah the ending of Season 1 seemed a bit abrupt but I felt like it was an OK ending. Sort of think they could have used an extra 20 minutes to flesh it out a bit more.
