I notice AC Unity seems to have another male protagonist. In a game where the gender of the protagonist makes no difference whatsoever, it's pretty shocking that there has only been one female protagonist in what will be eight games.

Figures. AC is also on my exceptions list but it is still really disappointing, there was a lot of anticipation that they would give us another female protagonist based on the success of Liberation and a few progressive statements from people within Ubisoft.

*ignores YorkNecromancer trying to judge me*

It's okay; I'm not judging you. You have to remember, the key problem of privilege is being unaware that you are privileged. We assume that our experience is a universal one; that no-one else experiences it differently, and thus any of us may experience an uncomfortable cognitive dissonance when someone points out 'Your experience is different to mine'.

The key is to try to avoid words to the effect of 'Well, I don't see the problem.' This is because the unstated implication of 'I don't see the problem' is 'so there isn't one'.

Of course, if you don't see it, that doesn't mean it's not there. It might mean that. But it might also mean your sight is defective.

Check the available facts first and find out which one it is.

I work at a f'ing Wetherspoons scraping the bottom of the barrel for minimum wage, which basically means they'd pay me less if they could. How am I privileged?

If anything, you're the privileged one.

Of course, if you don't see it, that doesn't mean it's not there. It might mean that. But it might also mean your sight is defective.

God?

after some unexpected money today, I bought a WiiU, which I was planning to get soon anyway using my hefty staff discount. but it is having a disk read error and we have no more in store so I have to wait a week while a replacement is ordered :'(

Which version did you opt for?

Also does anyone know how to deal with mega-absol?

Use Fighting, Bug, or Fairy.

So Mach Punch would be good as it is priority.

[Psychosplodge]

Fairy? That dazzling gleam/sylveon didn't do much...

Mach punch you say?
Is there a 60 power fighting TM that I can teach Scyther? cause thats a fighting/bug type isn't it? (got one with technician)

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Bug/Flying

So Fury Cutter would work well with Technician, but X Scissor might just be decent to use, you still get STAB, and 2x power.

Struggle Bug is also good, but it's a Special Attack.

As is Silver Wind.
