No One Is Fucking Talking About It But Another Black Man Was Killed By The Same Police Department That

Can you share that interns tweet?

1. Sam Maggs claims credit for naming Rivet

2. Intern at the time (now programmer) calls her on her bullshit and brings up how much of a toxic element she was (in a polite tone).

3. Maggs has to backpedal about being the one who named Rivet and pivots to "I'm angry because it was a team effort" when, in reality, she was clout chasing.

4. What Maggs hasn't done is address is she's been lying and trying to steal credit from the person who actually came up with the name for at least a 5 months.

November 2021. She was called out on March 2022. She's a shitheel who is purely out for herself. And remember, she left the project (possibly fired because she's toxic) 1.5 years before the game was finished, with other writers taking over for her.

Which means that anything she said about Rivet as a character is null and void. Her claims about both named Rivet and that Rivet is actually gay are both attempts at grabbing attention.

Why, you ask? Because the game she just finished working on, Tiny Tina's Wonderland, was just released and nobody is talking about it. She's desperately trying to farm clout and look progressive to get invited to some other project because that's how she operates.

She jumps from project to project, acts like a toxic bitch, leaves halfway through and then tries to act like she was a bigger influence on the game than she actually was. She's a leech.

Nobody should hire her, period.

Edit: She was stealing credit for at least 5 months, not 16. I have no idea why I put 16 down.

TFATWS ending

I haven't been able to go onto any Bucky posts because they're usually accompanied by John Walker antis, so I don't know if anyone's actually discussed this. But it doesn't sit right with me that we watch Bucky go through the entire season atoning for his past as the Winter Soldier, only for it to end with him still going by The Winter Soldier. This show really stopped caring about Bucky at the end, and we couldn't even stay for the apology to Mr. Nakajima they've been building up since the first episode. I'm already not too pleased that Falcon is no longer going to be a character, it would have been interesting to explore more into "Captain Falcon" or even retire the shield entirely instead of giving up his original name to an already existing character. Even John Walker gets to be his own character (US Agent). Quick rant: I don't know how people can look at the new Cap and call it representation, we had representation in Falcon. The show wanted to discuss race by having Sam represent a country that supposedly doesn't represent him, and in doing so, ironically rid us of an original black character in favor of a yet another white character (This is an observation on blackwashing, not an anti-white post). And before you say: "Cap is a black character", just remember, under every John Walker hate post, you'll find people quoting "There will never be another Steve Rogers". If you immediately saw John Walker as trying to replace Steve whenever he held that shield, it would be a double standard not to feel the same when Sam holds it. Both wanted to do something good with it, but only one got the chance to be taken seriously

A Palestinian father playfully balances his son on his right hand at the beach in Gaza City early one evening.

The coast of Gaza has grown increasingly popular over the years. It had always been a sight for weary eyes but with Israel’s siege denying Gazans the freedom to move, its seemingly endless seascape offers, for many, a very tangible escape, even if only temporal. It has also become a very popular family destination. Entire meals are prepared, served, and eaten here, and it is not uncommon to stay the night, father, son, and all.

I would let Steve Rogers bite me.

Unless he was a zombie.

Some good points

Mass kidnappings of kids are not unique to the Middle East. Putin's Russia has been doing it since its illegal annexation of Crimea and its de facto occupation of Donetsk and Luhansk in 2014. And it's grown greatly since Russia's invasion of Ukraine started in February of 2022.

This is a form of genocide as defined by international law. Putin and his cronies are war criminals and there is indeed a warrant for his arrest on the basis of his abduction of Ukrainian children from occupied parts of Ukraine.

This invasion has been going on for nearly two years – not just two months. There are thousands of Ukrainian child hostages held by Putin's kleptocratic mafia-terrorist state.

Imagine if John gave Lemar the serum

What's your opinion on putin sympathizers?

I think sympathizing with Putin/Russia in this scenario is stupid and wrong.

It's like sympathizing with China over Hong Kong.

I can see them do that. But singing & dancing to “Oh No!” instead.

Did anyone ask for human!Overlord burlesque with "Toxic Love" as the intended music?
