I’m also curious as to whether this justification was even commonly used, whether slave owners genuinely believed it, and how it came to be in general

West Ham now have an FDR of 4 which is the highest I've ever seen them rated, only Man City are currently rated higher (5). Feels good

Black Armory and Jokers Wild are decent for what they are.
But they come with an extreme lack of new loot to chase.
What actual loot did we get with BA? 2 armor sets 12 weapons and 4 Exotic Weapons....Pinnacles don't count because that's seasonal for everyone.
And what about Jokers Wild? 1 Armor set (that has 4 versions) 12 more weapons and 3 Exotic Armor pieces?
Curse of Osiris by itself added 69 weapons that's not even including the 4 Exotics per class
I'm not counting the patrol zone because I don't think that fair. It had 2 completely new armor sets AND Ornaments for every vendor. 3 Factions, Vanguard, Crucible and Trials. And I haven't even gotten to the Strikes or PvP maps from just a single one of the previous models.
That's more armor in a single DLC than JW and BA combined...again I'm not counting IB because that's seasonal to everyone.
Look, the Forge is cool. Gambit Prime is cool. But it's not worth what we're losing imho.
Full disclosure I have a ton of playtime and have been playing since beta
PlayStation PC this is not coming from a place of hate and even kept up two accounts until Black Armory's ridiculous forge quests
I feel like the world's being lifted off my shoulders. I finished signing off my legal name change today and submitting my paperwork to court!!! I finally have the name I chose (the name my grandmother wanted me to have, not what my nparents chose), my own middle name (traditionally, I was given my father's name as my middle name, and every time I see it written it boils my blood. His branding on me is gone now), amd my last name will be my grandmother's last name. She's the only one I consider family left anymore, and I want to honor her by keeping her name with me.
I left them. I left my abusive narcissistic parents behind. Every day is a day for me, for my life and for my future. No part of me has to bear their weight anymore. It's incredibly freeing! I feel like I've broken myself free from a curse or something. I am finally, 100% able to define myself and be the person I always wished I could be. The girl who lived in that house with those horrid, cruel people is gone now. I can finally just be me.
As someone who has been told their whole lives that my behaviour is empathetic and that I am able to understand everyone’s feelings and intentions, I know what a curse it can be. Because with everyone you meet, you will always and almost instantly think, that they know. So, when they harm you, are toxic or just in general aren’t in a good place, you understand. Because it would be wrong for you not to understand. Every time someone has been doing you wrong, you couldn’t confront them. You just couldn’t. You would be internally very mad, but you would never say something. You would just suck it up and know, they have their intentions and their own problems and sometimes it just happens.
You also feel a lot. When you watch a movie, you cry when sad things happen, you scream or laugh when you feel second-hand embarrassment, you are happy when good things happen. And when your friends tell you sad incidents of their lives, like when their pet or family died, you get so sad. But when something happens to you, you don’t really feel anything? So many people have left me and not once did I cry. I should have felt so overwhelmed at so many times, but I just didn’t. Every time I went to a funeral, my brothers would always ask me how I can be so cold and not cry or show any emotions. But I just didn’t feel anything. So how come when someone gets their heart broken or dies in television, it feels like my heart is being ripped out?
After all these years of wondering why I can’t pity myself, I think I figured it out. It's a balance. Either you pity yourself more than others, or you pity others more than yourself and I can’t really say which ones worse and what it means. Thoughts?
