[I can't imagine]

Wasn't Issac Newton asexual?

While we obviously don't know, most indications were that he died a virgin, and expressed discomfort nearly to the point of hostility toward the idea of consorting with women. Of course, he was also a very eccentric man, to the point where that probably wouldn't even qualify as the 10th strangest thing about him. It could also be the case that his particular attitudes toward God might have influenced him to remain celibate; he was deeply religious, even if his actual religious beliefs were very unconventional for the time and place.

It's probably best to consider asexuality less as a sexual orientation and more of a circumstance in life. A lack of sexual interest/desire isn't really that rare; it's just that it's usually related to psychological issues, a side effect of medical conditions, or a side effect of medications one is taking. It's rarely permanent, and certainly isn't something to build an identity around.

As others have said, building an identity around it is pretty exceptional, since it's something nobody but your doctors and romantic partners need to know about, and is invisible to the point where nobody is really going to discriminate or oppress you for it.

Tesla was also probably asexual, but that was more he didn't want to have anything to do with anyone at all, given the choice. He simply had more important things to do.

 

[SilkGnut]

You forgot she had no reaction to finding out she was nobody and that her parents left her for no reason other than being dead beats (which the next movie is retconning), could have been interesting however she has no human emotions, no rage, no sadness, no disbelief and no character growth from it, not even some week line like "it's not where I come from but who I am now that matters."

She seemed to be raging pretty hard in her fight against Luke, it seemed to be the only reason she had the upper hand. She took the easy strength afforded by anger and had zero negative consequences whatsoever as if entire movies had not been dedicated to spelling out that this was explicitly the path to the dark side.

At least the prequels popularized plinkett reviews.

To link my sperging to the topic I can not wait to see how they circle around the finale of the trilogy. Disney has been going hard for socjus points, I wonder if we get a nonbinary alien. Come to think they could probably label dozens of muppets from the originals with similar terms and ERA would eat it up.

Only on REEEEra can you have a thread where instead of people rightfully calling the OP a dumbass for what he did, you have replies that can rival the stupidity of OP. I mean, I feel for the guy, but how the fuck what he did the fault of America or whatever?

Of course ReEra would invent the term "modwhining" when people complain about their shitty moderation and helter-skelter banning of people.

[MysticMisty]

Also, I'd imagine many of them are on anti-depressants or other meds that do lower the libido, but again, it's not the same as being asexual, it's just another way to get oppression points.

The one person I knew that claimed to be asexual I suspect was either not physically attracted to her girlfriend, or had a completely fucked sex drive due to the terminal cancer that killed her (it wasn't diagnosed until about six months before she died). And I personally lean more towards the cancer completely fucking with her hormones.

The "Ryan Johnson thinks everyone who hated his shitty Star Wars movie is a Nazi Rapist" thread rolling out the All-Star lineup.

Surfinn is that guy saying everything is fine while bombs explode in the background.

DSPedn getting hit with some of that retard logic he loves so much.

Star Wars fans don't deserve to be able to make their own financial decisions.

And of course it wouldn't be a reetard jamboreeeeeeeeeee without Red Mercury

Surfinn gets dunked on after trying to jack off.

Does hating TLJ for not being woke enough make you a Nazi?

Uh oh Ojhe insulted their sacred cow. We all remember the classic meltdown Era had when Life Is Strange two announced the leads would be Mexican children and not upper class white hipsters.

"i-it has the bare minimum of diversity i-it's good"

Surfinn's pretend reality gets called out again.

Oh fuck he's got receipts, Surfinn done fucked up.

And for added comedy it comes from the same retard who said Kojima had to be stopped before he can commit future crimes a couple pages ago too (who was also the very first poster in this thread)

"n-no wait that doesn't count it's only one post"
Surfinn shifted those goalposts so hard they ended up in China.

Cheebo expresses his love for your mama jokes. Hey Cheebo I got a your mama joke for you: your mama shoulda drank less when she was pregnant with you.

This thread is the gift that keeps on giving.

Cheebo watches videos calling TLJ shit with one hand wiping away the tears streaming down his face and the other wrapped around his micropenis.

Imagine being Cheebo. Imagine spending every waking moment of your meaningless existence yelling at people over fucking Star Wars.

Oh no more receipts.

More people dunk on Cheetos.

Shockingly, he chooses to ignore it.

Cheetos obsession with star wars videos on youtube is definitely proof that he's mentally well.

Prolly shouldn't talk shit when a mere page ago you were called out for blatantly ignoring posts that prove you wrong there champ.

Even more Cheetos dunking, this time for being a blatant shill.

"It's over Anakin, I have the shifting goalposts"

And there's the finisher. Now to just wait for the thread to be locked so Cheetos and Surfinn can try and save face.

Since this post is already way too long I'll just direct link all the threads that guy posted for anyone who wants to laugh even more.

"the answer to that is not 'watch different videos'"

Let me accept Cheebs' premise here for a moment that all these videos are racist Nazi content. He's saying that not watching racist videos about Star Wars is simply not an option, instead one MUST watch racist videos about Star Wars so that one can then... criticize them vaguely on a forum that doesn't even allow them to be posted as the mods will edit them out? It still seems like not watching them would be the superior option, I don't have to watch racist content and the racists don't get a view.

I think Cheebs has definitely suffered severe brain damage at some point. I hope his loved ones have prepared palliative care for when Rise of the Skywalker comes out.

For a whole fucking year, the era low-sperm-count warriors have been fighting themselves over the Xth Pokemon. If it reviews well, the people taking Pokemon seriousely (lol) will be mad. If it reviews bad, the usual Nintendo/Pokemon shills will be mad.

The reviews for Pokemon are dropping tomorrow and remember people, Death Stranding was deemed as "divise" by Nintendo-era.

[Water-T]

Wasn't Issac Newton asexual?

What happened that after the apple hit him on the head, it caused brain damage that ruined his normal sex drive. He developed a fetish for being dropped from trees, but could not fulfill it until he invented gravity. It was during this time that he accidentally invented fig bars.

True story.

 

[kcbbq]

"Asexual" means "I'm a special snowflake, please give me your attention and sympathy." Always. Every time. It has never not meant that. "I just never get horny" is not a sexual orientation. It's a sexual dysfunction given serious clinical attention when it's reported to a doctor. It only ever gets mentioned outside that context to make the speaker seem like a sophisticated, virtuous and "interesting" person. Such people are never interesting.

ETA:

He wasn't tipping anyway. He's black. He's just making an announcement that he will continue not to tip.


Stereotypes exist for a reason. They're selfish, cheap and broke. They'll blow through a (borrowed or stolen) few grand for purple spinners, but fuck you if you think they're going to pay any more than they have to for a meal at a restaurant.

Tiger Woods has, what, a billion dollars? He couldn't even give the Perkin's waitresses he was banging anything so they'd stay quiet.

TL;DR : Why can we say fuck Ubisoft, fuck EA, fuck Konami, fuck THQ on Resetera without any problems, but suddenly, showing some light sarcasm toward a Nintendo tied company is tone-policed immediately ? Does that confirm our favourite chinese dictator hold some Nintendo stock ? We see you Era.

People here on Kiwi focus on the off-topic/political side of Resetera, but the Pokemon review thread will be glorious. It will be Nintendo shills vs normies, a real bloodbath. If you think those people care about politic, wait until the most controversial Pokemon game release this week and review drop. It would be funny if something like that could cause the whole forum to collapse on itself.

People thought Death Stranding was going to be the game that would be a fallout 76 type nuclear bomb and shift a paradigm.

It's looking like it's going to be probably Pokemon.

Another series to throw into the dead/lifeless fucking series pile along with everything Blizzard and Bioware ever made.

2018 and 2019 were not kind to many long established series.

Why are people so pissed with it anyway? Seen nothing but impotent rage since the announcement.

From what I know and have seen...

Spoiler

A shitton of Pokémon are completely cut from the game. Not that they aren't available and you can't obtain them except by trading like on other games, they aren't coded in the game at all. GameFreak has announced they plan on doing this to every game going forward.

The excuse used for that was to make better animations, but the animations for the older pokémons that are appearing again are reused, the animations for the new ones aren't exactly impressive and the animations for some trainers are reused from Sun and Moon as well (very noticeable with Hop and Hau).

Mega Pokémon are gone. The new gimmick is "Dynamaxing" and "Gigantamaxing", i.e. making your pokémon big / big with a special form depending if it was chosen to have one.

Some moves, including Hidden Power, a move used by a lot of pokémon competitively, are also gone. They are coded in the game but the game does not allow you to use them.

It doesn't look good for a Switch game. A tree from the game's "Wild Area" was infamously compared with N64 graphics and somehow looks worse than the trees from Wii Sports.

EXP Share is turned on by default and cannot be turned off. This makes your pokémon overleveled for a lot of things and the game apparently is quite easy even if you could turn it off.

There's a limit on the max level of the pokémon you can catch depending on how many badges you have.

People are really fucking pissed at Charizard and Gen 1 pandering in general.

Long story short:

Less content than the handheld games despite being on a more powerful console.
Being more expensive than past games despite that.
Unimpressive overall graphics, textures and animations.
Cut content people wanted (many Pokémon, Mega Forms, Moves...).
Focus on content nobody asked for (Currydex, Pokémon Camp) making people feel such effort could have gone to other things they consider more important.
The games were promised as "games for older pokémon fans" after Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee and that promise did not age well.
