garnet was about to beat her ass though like holy shit she was not playing around i actually thought pearl was gonna get poofed for a hot second
Garnet was rightfully pissed. She IS a fusion. A fusion of love. To see one of her closest and most trusted friends USE her for fusion is very emotional. You saw her reaction to forced fusions. She regards fusion as something important.
In Oregon, a couple is being fined over $100,000 and being given a gag order not to comment on their case of refusing to bake a cake for a gay wedding.
There is also a lien on their house, so they might literally lose their home.
Do I agree with their beliefs? No. But they have every fucking right to choose who they bake a cake for, what they will put on that cake, and to refuse to bake a cake for anyone for any reason. I don’t give a fuck who you are, you don’t deserve special treatment
FUN FACT: You know why they’re paying that 135k fine? Not because they denied someone a cake. It’s not just that. They gave out the couples personal contact information. Their home address, phone numbers, and emails. This couple received death threats and nearly lost their foster children.
You know what that bakery got? A little bit of bad publicity (I use that lightly because their bakery has been blasted up and down the news pages and then some), and some protesters outside. This isn’t to say however that they didn’t have the full support of their own community who are constantly counter protesting and - if I remember correctly - raising funds for the Kleins.
In Oregon it is illegal (per The Oregon Equality Act of 2007) to refuse services & goods based on sexual orientation, race, sex, disability, age or religion). There are exceptions if you are religious school or organization. But Sweet Cakes by Melissa is a privately owned business and are not a registered / legitimate religious organization.
This isn’t a newly passed law. It’s been around since 2007. That’s eight years. It wasn’t even a change made after they had opened. Sweet Cakes is a business that opened in 2013. How you open a business and not know how the law works is beyond me. But people do amazing and incredulous things every day.
Also there was no “gag-order”. The owners - Melissa and Aaron - are free to discuss and publicize their case as much as they please. However they have been told that they cannot continue to broadcast that they plan to continue to deny services to same sex couples. Which, once again, is illegal in the state of Oregon. It would probably do them many favors not to discuss their plans to break the law.
There’s so much false information floating around out there regarding this case. It’s really important to have all the facts.
THIIIIIIIS. The couple received DEATH THREATS and people threatened their CHILDREN. I would be asking for way more than 135k, tbh.
OP is religious but ok with outright lying about this case? Ok.
What if paper currency frequently changes appearance to prevent time travelers from going back in time and becoming rich?
It could easily be countered by opening up a bank account in the past and letting the money accumulate wealth via interest in teh future.
Except there is this thing that some states have passed. If an account has been untouched for way too long (Mostly by dead people) then the local government takes it. This is a overly simplified explanation of the process, but you get the picture.
Then make a small withdrawl from the account right before it becomes government property.
Holy fucking shit. You’ve got to be kidding me. I have no words. There MUST be a limit to how disgusting one person can be.
Is this a fucking joke? Please be a fucking joke. I don’t even have the heart to find out if it is or not. The fuck is this woman’s fucking problem? I never liked her personally, but for fuck sake.
These tweets are photoshopped.
People are using his death to further slander her and turn people against FemFreq.
I mean, these tweets literally read like something a cartoon villain might say.
What is wrong with you people trying to capitalise on the death of a man to spread lies? Seriously…
Just adding some actual tweets as proof
The tweets on the FemFreq account are meticulous with their grammar, presumably because they know how many people are watching their every move to uncover flaws to be used against Sarkeesian. Plus, it’s generally a good idea to write professionally on your professional account.
My point is, if you browse their Twitter and get an idea of their general writing style, you’ll notice that they’re unlikely to publish tweets with comma splices (fake tweet #1), the wrong form of “its/it’s” (fake tweet #2), or without a period at the end (fake tweet #2). You don’t even need links to disprove the hastily written fake tweets in the original post; all you need is your critical thinking skills.
This doesn’t need to be said, but it’s despicable to exploit for the purposes of slander the death of a beloved, hardworking, monumentally influential figure in the hobby that the person who fabricated these tweets probably thinks they love.
the second tweet isn’t even the right length
Just further proof of what absolute trash these dudebros are, that they would use Satoru Iwata’s death as an oppurtunity to try and make people they don’t like look bad
Whoever did this actually used a real post from tumblr that’s been floating around. The person who posted it on tumblr is getting a shitload of flack from Gamers and fellow feminists alike.
While the source of this trash isn’t Anita Sarkeesian, these tweets, or at least the text in them, is something somebody here on tumblr actually said and put out into then net. Some cheaky cunt decided to do as cheeky cunts tend to do, and use it to stir up shit.
Regardless of who they are, nobody is pleased with them.
Oh good these are fake.
I don’t like Sarkeezbeezkneez anymore than anyone else, but I’m glad she didn’t say this. Even she has a little more tact that to capitalise on the shock value of death of a beloved figure.
Nah, she learned her lesson the last time she did that
I don’t care if you hate fem freq, but under no circumstances should you EVER use a great persons death to further your own agenda. Op is a sick bastard who really needs to be punched in the face.
well there was that rpg for the mobile devices, I hear that was good
It was but it was also short. I’m talking about an actual game. Platinum makes games like wonderful 101 and bayonetta and would be perfect for a steven universe game
