I appreciate that people want a new Mass Effect, but the future where fans advocate for the work itself and not the people who make it is the one the vultures at EA want. If you'll take it however you get it, they can keep treating people who make what you love as expendable.

Algebra, numbers, principles of optics, medical encyclopedias, astronomy, hospitals, surgical tools, universities, coffee, lab chemistry--all of Arabic origin. This mfer had a brain worm, collects road kills, sounds like a dial up modem, works out in jeans. This is a uniquely American arrogance.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Very interested to see what that looks like. There's a lot of things that kind of depend on the Indian Act for mostly worse, but sometimes better. Take the status card. Outdated sure. Hella racist, sure. But what are you replacing it with so indigenous ppl can get that discount on certain goods?
Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew told Prime Minister Mark Carney, premiers and First Nations leaders that it's time to abolish the Indian Act. Here's what Kinew said to reporters afterward.

I truly don't know what they're hoping to accomplish by animating the Beerus/Super Saiyan God arc a third time. The arc is not that good aside from seeing Vegeta in Groveling Pissboy mode and they cut that!
I have immediately lost faith in Dragon Ball Super: Beerus as an endeavor seeing that they cut Vegeta groveling at Beerus' feet and getting him food like a panicked servant Those moments show A) Vegeta has matured and is willing to shame himself to protect his family and B) how SCARY Beerus is

There is so much more empathy in the world than there used to be, even if you don’t believe me rn. When I was in grade school boys snapped girls’ bras and nobody did shit. Same with swastikas, etc, drawn on lockers and textbooks. It’s a joke, bro. What’s the big deal?
Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

Replying to @kayin.moe
A prince, who has had her nobility robbed from her, flaunting gifts as she reverts to a princess, losing sight of the thing that can save her friend, whose blank face hides all the resentment boiling inside her as it becomes apparent that no one will ever help or actually care for her. (:

It's another day, so let's talk about this. First of all, Lula didn't win the election alone. He won because more than half of the country FREAKED THE FUCK OUT and built a popular movement that organized several actions both irl and online.
Foreign political analysts will take the wrong lesson from this, but that's a topic for another day. Today we celebrate.

People abroad don't understand the level of interference Meta & bots had in these elections. 5 days before the election a far-right politician posted a fake news video that got 157 MILLION views on Instagram in 24hs. For reference, GTA 6's reveal trailer got 90 million views on YouTube in 24hs.

Its forever been the wildest thing being at games conferences -especially the largest ones- and the talk schedule is like - creating sincere art from playful naivete - balancing passion and health - how to dodge parental controls when monetizing toddlers - regrets from my 1st commercial codebase
making games so you can hopefully afford to make more games is literally a different industry from grinding up people so number goes up and it is harmful to pretend otherwise regardless of whether or not we share a platform or a binary format
