Thank you, random internet stranger. Thanks for going out of your way to fight against pedophilia by harassing a heckin' icky artist who draws High School DxD panty shots instead of protesting against a cabal of politicans who rape children with a human trafficker. Glad we focus on real issues! ❤
Controversial Examples: Pokemon - External Media, Catching & Trading Pokemon, Character Designs Mortal Kombat - Realistic Motion Capture, Fatalities, Some characters and moves, Gore *Some may agree with these examples, but I deliberately put these in this category due to how nostalgic and popular they are. Also, their fans are known to be hyper-defensive and I don’t want to cause a warzone.
funnily enough, I was gonna add pokemon on there.
Kitsch Game Definition: A video game fondly remembered and often still played primarily for its gimmick, hook, art direction, characters, or cultural identity rather than for the quality of its gameplay. The gameplay typically ranges from moderately serviceable with major flaws that hold it back from being worth playing beyond its kitsch, to genuinely terrible and poorly designed where it’s a miracle people even like the game to begin with. Examples: SPORE - Monster Creator Kingdom Hearts - Disney Crossover and Lore Scott Pilgrim VS The World - Pixel Art Mihoyo Games - Character Designs and Open World Etymology: From kitsch (art or design appealing to popular or sentimental taste rather than high aesthetic standards) + game, adapted to describe video games whose cultural or aesthetic appeal outweighs their mechanical refinement. Clarification: The term does not imply that a game labeled a ‘kitsch game’ is inherently bad, nor is it simply another way of calling a game overrated. Rather than denying a game’s appeal, it analyzes the source of that appeal. Such games may be serviceable or even enjoyable, but their enduring popularity is driven primarily by aesthetic or conceptual qualities (and in the case of older titles, nostalgic appeal) rather than driven by the strength of their actual gameplay and game design.
made up a new gaming term
thankfully I didn't click on any links so that's good
my tired ass just opened twitter and I fell for a scammer who recently hacked a person I followed. FUCK
This post criticizes performative liberals (commonly white liberals) for trivializing the oppression of Native Americans by conflating modern immigration woes (such as the oppression committed by ICE) with the atrocities committed under American colonialism. Text: Obviously fuck ICE and the shit they're doing, but I really hate how white liberals are weaponizing native americans' suffering for their "epic woke vibes" slogans against Trump. It's genuinely so eye-rolling to see two different struggles conflated into a single "gotcha,"
repost from twitter #1
like nobody, even those are ARE anti-lgbt, will ever come to the conclusion that lolicon is less degenerate than homosexuality... besides a small but vocal chunk of chuds online.
Some insufferable person (left) accusing others (right) for degeneracy. Very often that the accused are queer or Muslim, and the accusers are often chuds who are into hentai, commonly taboo stuff like lolicon.
my "favorite" thing on twitter is that people with weird ass fetishes having the gall to accuse minority groups of degeneracy or grooming children, only for these accusers to get ratio'd half of the time because it's silly to think lolicon is less degenerate than having a sex change or being gay.
If you've moderated a server before, preferably still active in moderation, please let me know! Please spread this thread (preferably via the very first post in the thread) so more people will know about this.
I'll send an invite link to anyone I trust enough.
However, I do NEED some help with setting things up. From the rules to the general structure of this server. I am very much not finished as I had just started creating it yesterday.
Also, anyone who joins cannot see any channel aside from a few unless they have verified that they're an adult.
The server will be inclusive by design, although my 4chan-adjacent vocabulary will seep through so I must warn you.
I want a server where ecchi/fanservice enthusiasts can enjoy what they're talking about without being discriminated over race or sexuality, or being alienated by culture-war toxicity.
NEWS: I'm currently developing an inclusive discord server (18+ obviously) for otaku that indulge in the shameless and taboo side of otaku culture. The goal is to create a space where any ecchi enjoyer can chill without the modern political culture-war garbage that tend to infest these spaces.
A "future-brained" person is one who gets defensive over modern technology, thinking that modern technology is the best most innovative thing on Earth and will dismiss any criticism (especially valid criticism) of modern technology. Examples of "modern technology" mainly refers to technology made since the iPhone, including (but not limited to) smartphones, streaming services, smart-fridges, microtransactions, and especially AI. This behavior was normalized around the 2010s, as the only people known for hating modern technology are often out-of-touch old people (boomers) and paranoid conspiracy theorists... usually for dumb or nihilistic reasons like those shitty "phone bad" FaceBook memes. Nearly every sentence shown in the meme are common talking points made by these people: "You actually love AI right now, ever heard of autocorrect?" "Why would I want DVDs? I can just access my shows on streaming." "The future is now, old man!" "Smart-tech is convenient, therefore it's good." "iPhones and smart-tech track your data? Heh, wait until you find out about driver's licenses." "Trust me, we should embrace AI. We could cure cancer with this!" "You must be a dumb boomer to think smartphones are a problem."
Everytime I see anyone criticize AI or modern tech, there's always this kind of pseudo-intellectual human being like this in the replies.
Just reading its definition alone is proof that the word is engineered for easy fearmongering.
"The unlawful use of violence to achieve ideological goals."
That means if you kill an evil CEO, resist against Israeli war crimes, or are in the Black Panther Party. That's now makes you a terrorist.
Reminder that the word "terrorist" is an inherently meaningless buzzword coined by Edmund Burke, a pro-slavery racist, to demonize revolutionaries for fighting against oppressors.
They'll call you such a scary-sounding word to keep you vulnerable and powerless in order to oppress you harder.
A meme a user created that cherrypicks a scene from an anime they most certainly didn't even watch, to make some snarky jab against a modern show with a cutesy moe artstyle they didn't like. It's basically the Tumblr equivalent of those guys whining about shows with the "bean-mouth CalArts" style, but somehow even more pathetic as more anime since 2020 have gradually strayed away from the "evil moeblob" artstyle with only a few shows that have it like the ones in the slice-of-life and ecchi genres of anime.
"I miss when my animes looked exactly like my heckin' wholesome retro synthwave city pop compilations that feature scenes from many niche anime OVAs I've never actually watched instead of this popular art direction that was actually prevalent since the 1980s."
*recycles the same inbred pug joke*
Ironically enough, the people who seriously say "she looks young, but she's actually a legal adult, trust me bro." are usually people who jerk off to characters like Tatsumaki but are afraid of being called a lolicon so they gotta do some revisionism to appeal to normies who won't like them anyways.
Nobody is actually dumb enough to unironically say "she's actually a 500-year-old demon" and expect the public to believe them. Even when used as a legitimate argument, it's usually to make the point that anime/manga doesn't take a fictional cartoon character's age seriously and neither should you.
One of the the funniest misconceptions the internet still makes is that people into lolicon use "she's actually 500-years-old" as a legitimate argument akin to a crazy-man's defense, when in reality most of them use it as a sarcastic joke to deliberately piss people off.
remember back when people call a game simply bad and review bomb it just for having microtransactions or lootboxes without needing to care if the game is actually good or not? I wish people have the balls to do that more often nowadays so companies can finally know they should fucking stop.
Silver Surfer isn't even that hard, it's just that people are salty that a shoot-em-up designed to shoot by each button press can't let you aimlessly shoot just by holding it.
Save states and rewind features are a blight on retro rereleases.
They should AT LEAST be unlockables for beating the game legitimately, or preferably removed altogether because they only exist as a crutch for normies. The only progress that should be saved are games with in-game save data.
calling a game bad for having slowdown or "outdated" mechanics when they were the result of hardware limitations, etc.
Context is key when it comes to these type of games. They were meant to be played in short bursts, and only few of them (like most JRPGs) let you actually save your progress.
People tend to have terrible critiques of old games
Playing blind without reading a manual booklet as games back then don't have the space to explain every minuscule mechanic, complaining about the difficulty being unforgiving when the game is designed to be that way to make up for low space,
i had dollar store cream soda and it tasted like shit
hiiii, I like to occasionally play puyo as well.
My new dog.
annoying ass dog finally sleeps for once
it’s not even worth being on the pirate bay
he looks like a combination between nick fuentes and tucker carlson
don’t let bad actors ruin what you liked. we know you’re a nice person.
personally I think you should just take a long break from drawing that stuff if you currently feel uncomfortable about it.
