That's really awful.

I hope he's doing okay, I can't imagine going through something like this being easy.

Honestly?
inb4 Exoprimal takes place in the same universe as Dino Crisis

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Of course. Did anyone ever not think that Disney was like this? It’s still bad, but it’s also not news.

that yes, but the whole “sexuality censorship” issue only adds on to their recent “putting our hard worked movies on Disney+ for free” issue Pixar is still having with their owner.

No need to say, given it's Twitter, but don't look at the replies if you don't want your day to be ruined.

I feel so bad for him, feels like nothing has been going his way lately with all the BP2 controversy and now this.

Thankfully, he was taken out of custody shortly after the incident.

That's good to hear.
I saw he (or someone else, id remember) posted a picture of a letter he wrote saying he was simply taking money out of HIS OWN checking account, which of course further proves that this was just one giant misunderstanding.

Yeah, so the breakdown was

1. Coogler comes up in disguise to be discrete, writes a note saying transaction to be discrete
2. Transaction is over a certian amount, is flagged suspicious
3. Bank teller jumps to the conclusion that he has a gun and immediately calls the cops
4. Cops show up, pull a gun on him with out question, detain him
5. Turns out it was Ryan Coogler, and he showed ID and had the correct pin so there was no way he was robbing the bank
6. Oops, sorry apology from Bank of America

In the end, the bankerteller is losing her job.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

You need to best me in a duel to death first.

Bet

Did he come up in disguise so he wouldn't be noticed, though, or what?
Other than that, the rest all makes sense to me, and I can see how the banker teller is losing her job

Relevent question. Is this chick white?

 

[TheMightyP]

Relevent question. Is this chick white?

You would think that's the case.

But no, she was black. Internalized racism go crazy.

Thank god

Yeah, and by disguise I mean basball cap and sunglasses.

That is truly awful and I feel sorry for Ryan Coogler that he was falsely accused like that. It is likely that the employee who is responsible for this could end up facing the sack.

Anyways, 20 more days until this comes on Disney+:

That is horrible! I hope those involved against him, like the bankteller and cops get disciplined.

So, what Mario news are we getting today since it is Mario day?

 

[GilTheGreat19]

Fellow Overwatch fans
We got a new dev update on OW2 from Aaron:

I'm more hopeful about the game now, I respect how he's holding themselves accountable for a lack of balanced content and patches and whatnot, and wanting to push PvP ASAP is great as well!

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Those racist cops deserves to be stripped of everything and fired.

Duuuuude what? That’s ****ing ridiculous man the cop in the videos first reaction was to unholster his pistol. Even before he was even able to get a word in. That sucks dude I hate it for him. I know he was just trying to be discreet because he’s Ryan ****ing Coogler. Anyone who knows that name would’ve freaked out and wanted an autograph, picture, everything. That sucks.

Why am I just now finding out that JK Rowling named the sole black character in HP Kingsley Shacklebolt, I'm dying bruh.

Yeah turns out minorities were criticizing these books for years but it took her dedicating her entire identity to hating minorities for people to realize. Wait till you hear how they handled slavery and activism against racial discrimination

I mean, I wouldn't know because I don't read poorly written literature. She defended slavery. My guess

I was aware of Cho Chang the Asian girl and Goldstien the jewish boy bruh how did she get away with this lmao.

Ok so the second book had Dobby, a house elf. If he disobeyed his masters he would be forced to cause himself physical pain and his entire race is like this. At the end, Harry tricks his master into giving Dobby a sock, as giving clothes means they are free. Later books go "Oh they like being slaves, Dobby's just weird for not liking it" and Harry himself owns a slave whom he uses, and the issue with slavery is not being nice to them instead of, y'know, slavery.

Before I bring this next part up, I wanna point this out in particular

Rowling trying to earn brownie points. This matters cause Hermione is actually ****ing disgusted about the slave labour and makes an activism group for it which is called S.P.E.W. This is treated purely for laughs with "Haha, it's not a big deal, she's overreacting" being the punchline. No wonder the movies cut that **** lmao

Kingsley- King. Because Africans used to be royalty before the whites invaded. The now African Americans used oryalty terms to keep morale up and remind them of who they were. This of course was subjegated to racism and ****.

Shacklebolt- Shackles because slavery. This is self explanitory.

Aka, she basically named the character King Slave

Oh I thought it was cause like. Martin Luther King. And in case Jondolio didn't get it, shackle as in chains. Bolt as in bolted on chains. Cause slaves were in chains

Tbf that does not make it any better

I'd argue it's worse cause your suggestion implies she did research instead of going with her literal first thought like the rest of her naming conventions

Ew ****in yikes. I'm excusing 8 year old me for not getting that since I didn't know English at the time but man I am so glad I washed my hands off of this franchise. Read Percy Jackson, the books are actually good and the author listens to minorities' criticisms

I mean it's JK Rowling, I'm pretty sure her naming convention was "Slur McSlur" and called it a day.

Too bad Percy Jaskson was fumbled badly.

But Rick wrote some of the first 39 Clues so he's OK in my book. I'm still waiting for that movie. I still am.

I'm extremely hype for my D&D game tomorrow night. I always use video game music to give something to listen to while playing, and they're going up against a powerful Chaotic Neutral boss tomorrow to assist a friendly NPC. I'm bringing out this gem for the fight.

Not really no.

You hear so much **** about her, you get to the point where you just go "oh, she did it again, huh"

It definitely was not me. I am nowhere near my Switch at the moment.

That reminds me, I should add more Switch friends someday. Maybe not today, but in the future.
