  • The main issue with YouTube premium is the price, I can’t imagine that they’re making anywhere near $14 a month from showing me ads that I never click on. I’d love to see a breakdown, including how much is subsiding free users, how much is going to creators, and how much is going into the pockets of shareholders.

    I think like most if not all of the people I know would easily pay $5 dollars for premium



  • I would say hand size is something I’d avoid too. Particularly women and trans-women get mocked for “man-hands” a lot. I know you’re talking about Trump, and in that context I’m not really aware of any major stigma, I would just be worried about creating it.

    But like I said, I’m not trying to stop you having fun, and it doesn’t seem particularly harmful so go ahead 😁


  • Totally, I don’t want to get into the nuances of penis size preferences, as the vast majority of people are happy with any donger (barring medical conditions), but of course, as you’ve said, there are outliers.

    It just upsets me to watch men obsess about penis size, so I probably came across too strongly, sorry about that 😅

    I also have no problem with humour, I try to avoid it as I see it as body shaming, but I’m not gonna be a party pooper



  • This meme is just perpetuating two harmful ideas:

    1. Reinforcing the expectation that black men have huge dongers

    2. That donger size matters and is a measure of self worth

    You’ll notice that whilst point 2 effects all men, point 1 is more harmful to black men, as they hold their body to a higher unrealistic standard. Plus it’s part of the creepy fetishization of “exotic” people.

    Tying people disliking these concepts to them being “pale” is just kinda weird, dismissive, and frankly plain racist.

    I’m not personally offended by the post, and haven’t downvoted it, I just hate seeing the closed minded and unempathetic mindset that your comment demonstrates








  • I can’t help but notice that she isn’t disagreeing with the translation. Just that the intention is somewhat disguised behind cultural barriers.

    The infamous “I want to expand my circle and hire more people, get licked until can’t get an erection.” she describes as “crude” meaning it isn’t a completely off base translation (which honestly surprised me). It’s clear she has a bias, and is upfront about it, so I think she’s being more forgiving than a Western audience would be if a Western dev said similarly crude things.

    I think a lot of the context is helpful, particularly about Chinese devs using female players as part of their own marketing. So “pandering to female players” is more directly associated with exploiting female players.

    Clearly the studio has some statements the West would consider iffy, even with cultural context in mind. So the accusations of sexism don’t seem as cut and dry as either side is making it out to be
