  • People made these exact same arguments about the inclusion of a black samurai in an Assassin's Creed game.

    A black samurai who was based on a real person who actually existed in history.

    The game they're playing is very obvious to anyone who's actually paying an ounce of attention, and it has nothing to do with caring about historical accuracy.

    It's bullshit. It's an excuse. It's foolish. I do not suffer it gladly.

  • That's literally just a longer way of saying that it's okay if it's magic but it's not okay if it's black people.

    & yeah, I'll hold my breath for people getting equally upset about white people in fiction. Any day now. I'm sure.

    I can't disapprove a hypothetical, I guess, but a hypothetical isn't proof of anything either.

  • No. Fuckin stop it. Its unbearably stupid.

    Historical fiction has existed for a long time.

    Y'all ain't out here throwing a pouty parade when someone adds technology or magic or monsters into historical fiction.

    But black people? Existing? If that's where you draw the line, it's really clear why. Make all the excuses you want.

  • Representation matters. Giving the few traditionally non-white roles that get written in Hollywood to white actors is an actual problem.

    Getting mad about the existence of black characters in fiction fucking stupid. Really fucking stupid. Unjustifiably fucking stupid. ¯(ツ)_/¯

  • ... She wasn't fired lmao. People don't read.

    She was given a 5 day suspension.

  • I don't know why, but it's always surreal to find out that webcomics I stopped reading 15 years ago still exist. Lots of things exist when I'm not looking at them. I don't know why my brain snags on this one.

    Sluggy Freelance is still going, Christ. It took me like a year and a half to catch up to current way back in 2004, I can't imagine the struggle now.

  • An older lady was trying to push two carts at the same time out of a warehouse club store. I was just carrying TP by hand, so I offered to push her extra cart.

    She called me her bodyguard. I ascended immediately to heaven.

  • Infusing users back into Twitter? Nah

  • So excited for The Jungle 2

  • Your friends don't sprance, and if they don't sprance then they're no friends of mine

  • Oh great, I added all the numbers in your comment together and now it's $101 billion?? When will this madness end???

  • Just so you're aware, you didn't reply to any comment

  • Aye, poppy

  • This is only a reenactment
