Did it get deleted? I don’t see it in the thread.

+1. I would have nominated it under a smaller umbrella if I realised!

What Black Widow interview is this?

This.

It probably didn't get unscreened because it's an asshole move.

Oh, I was referring to this thing: https://time.com/3832841/chris-evans-jeremy-renner-scarlett-johansson-black-widow/

Jeremy Renner and Chris Evans did an Avengers interview in 2015 where they joked about the BW being a slut and a whore.

And yes, I know there's a difference between making a sexist joke and potentially being a domestic abuser, but IIRC, Chris Evans was very contrite and made what seemed like a reasonably sincere apology, whereas Jeremy Renner's statement was more of a non-apology that didn't seem to indicate that he got why maybe their jokes weren't particularly funny. So, there's been a bit of a bitter taste since then and the recent allegations seem to fit the profile.

For everyone who isn't insane and looking for a reason to shut down someone whose opinion they don't like, yes.

You keep acting like people tried to "shut down" your opinion, but people repeatedly told you why they disagreed with that, too. You're the one trying to shut down people who disagreed with you by pretending it's all just wild objection to your questionable wording.

Dude, it was a dumb (no, IPHs don't commonly hold up exchanges) and insulting comment. And then the person who made up got upset because someone dared to tell them to go fuck themselves because swearing is ~offensive or something. It was like a parody.

Any other juicy wanks going on?

"Heir" doesn't look like a word anymore.

Re: Space Race Wank

(Anonymous) 2019-10-20 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I for one would like to no longer encounter that word outside of conversations about female dogs.

This willingness to dissect every flavor of the word ‘heir’ under the sun for 175+ comments is so peak FFA.

So... Space Race Wank Part 2?

I swear, yuletide will be completely uwu soon

I’m getting so tired of uniquely interpreted DNWs and wank around them this year. I understand dnw-ing triggers or NOTPs or kink, but crap like “write me about the rainbow but dnw any colors, water or the sky or I will pass-agg you in comments, possibly unleash mods on you, and drag you on anonmemes” wouldn’t make me feel generous.

Only if it's RPF, surely? If it were still 2011 and GOT were still a YT-eligible fandom and Sean Bean turned out to have killed as many people as roles he'd been killed in, GOT would still remain eligible.

Your fandom is problematic.

LOL I know a toddler who calls any semicircle or similar arrangement of stripes, whether multicolored or not, a rainbow and honestly that's making me understand these weirdos more than I ever have before. They're two! It explains so much!

It’s probably the only good explanation for this trend!

The good thing about yuletide is that it’s not limited to the FFA BFE crowd, so maybe the request culture hasn’t changed...yet.

Hear, hear.

At least Yuletide has a rule about using DNWs to box writers into a corner, but I wonder if participants will remember that.

It makes me wonder: with the people saying they went to the Yuletide mods with a DNW and the mods were unsympathetic, was it them or the mods? (Probably some of each...)

Can someone tell me what uwu stands for?
