ppl are more concerned about having their disgust validated than they are about discussing and combating the erosion of your right to privacy that porn bans are actually about. that is how absurd legislation like "2-5 yrs prison for incest roleplay porn" gets passed.

It's my great pleasure to give a long overdue progress update on our fully human-translated and human-coded English patch for the legendary Tokimeki Memorial 2!

yknow, one thing about this massive bot farm outtage that's kinda made me feel optimistic, is just... how inorganic this massive swing towards the right we've all had to endure over the last decade is. It's all fucking fake, it was fake from the start, and we know how to kill it

the nsfw art trend of the week being a genderbend harry potter character that people are referring to with a portmanteau of the characters name and a misogynistic slur is ridiculously on the nose. it feels like some outlandish parody where someone tried to think of the most soulless thing possible

"What to do about Jacob Geller" I dunno, move on? A single person's work is not so integral and sacred that we need to wring our hands about what to do with it. There are a lot of people whose work you could be reading or listening to. Stop making icons out of random dudes. is that so hard

"ease ai anxiety" is a funny way of saying "Trick people into trusting the omnipresent surveillance tech by exploiting our natural instinct to nurture cute things"

Curate your online experience. Mute words, mute people, even block freely. It's your space. If you don't want to see something, are often annoyed at what you have on your timeline or doom scroll, adjust your experience! And if you don't like someone's vibe or options, block & move on.

Since it's come up a bunch for me lately. Media/Lit analysis and even creating with themes in mind is actually easy. It's like drawing. You just do it. You might lack the skills to articulate an image or an idea or a feeling, and you might not be aware of common tricks and themes, but that's fine!

the best time to stop paying for premium on the spyware chat app that just rolled out a new spyware update so they can do gambling partnerships with fanduel and feed your posts to palantir and the CIA was yesterday, and the next best time to do it is today

discord casually admitting they know that nobody wanted the age verification implemented and trying to be funny about it is seriously something that the pr team should reflect on and really study when they lose a lot of nitro subs in this next week

Wow I guess Resident Evil 4 is on sale but I can't buy it because I'm in Australia, and I don't have a credit card, because why the fuck would I have a credit card. Nobody has a fucking credit card. Cannot believe this shit

I'm astonished how quickly everyone just decided to run with this story based on a handful of screenshots. For one, not all of puppet theater even looks like that. For another, nothing but the character face designs evoke this puppet theater quality.

Pro tip: you don’t have to comm artists to boost and support them. People claim they can’t support artists and creators because they are financially strapped, but they can still boost posts, comment, like, and in general just be supportive! It’s completely free outside of an internet connection ;)

As someone who deeply loves "games that tell stories", every time one of these dogshit "cinematic" western AAA games come out, they embarrass me. Trash products that make a mockery out of both action games and narrative games at once. In my world they'd all be dumped into a landfill like ET.
