It’s truly hard for me to imagine looking at a world full of busy people going about their lives and think that something’s wrong with them because they’re not paying more attention to me.

Zaslav knows how to turn educational on-in-the-background TV into hyper-profitable trashy on-in-the-background TV, but it seems increasingly clear he doesn’t know how to handle projects and IPs that people actively care about and engage with.

I saw a thing on Twitter where somebody who used to work at Discovery said this isn’t unusual for Zaslav, but he never got much blowback because the people watching those reality shows don’t talk much about them on social media. Except animation, particularly from a storied studio as Warner Bros and a channel like…

I can see how there are a lot of bad takes out there concerning this new regulation, many of them coming from tapping into a fear of or dislike for the CCP for easy clicks. Good to call that out.

It’s a good time to explain that even if you disagree there is room for reasonable discussion on the topic, and that responding with taunts, threats and name calling only proves the author’s point

Semenya’s case is a good example of how fear of trans people has wide-reaching impact beyond trans people. See also the numerous videos of cis women with funky haircuts and androgynous clothes being kept out of women’s restrooms.

I’m already seeing the comments, so let’s be clear about something here:

“Cancel Culture” did not kill Alec Holowka. We don’t yet have the full picture of how he died, but it sounds as if he died by suicide, and had been suffering from a host of psychological and personal difficulties prior to that final, tragic act.

No…

Yeah, I’d definitely rather focus on the fact that she shared, like, a thing implying that grieving parents’ pain was false then the fact that she’s not the best voice actor.

Anyone who casually says “go take your sandy vag” simply CANNOT be a sleazy dude. You don’t come off that way AT ALL with your casual racism and willful ignorance against the history of a word.

That would be taking a side, which would upset their fans who are on the opposite side and maybe lose donations. It all boils down to the money, and they don’t want to lose any. It doesn’t matter how just the cause is, there are some people in this world who are so incredibly ignorant, they will refuse to change their…

I wasn’t completely sure I was interested enough in the behind-the-scenes side of video games to buy your book; I enjoy your writing but sometimes it’s a bit too in-the-weeds for me (I’m tangentially involved in the software business, so while I understand the corporate and political machinations, they don’t always…

Because those games and consoles are out of print/production, that’s why. Sure, you can still find a PSOne but will you be able to find a copy of the game you are looking for? As time goes on physical copies of games are removed from circulation either by being destroyed, lost, or otherwise becoming unplayable. Having…

Not sure how that is coming off as an asshole. That is simple logic and good advice I expect any sensible adult to have. Some people have bet everything in turning Youtube into a “career” and have been lucky (or skilled enough) for it to work. Others have failed and put themselves into a difficult position…

Why are these self entitled nerds upset that huge names like Pepsi and Coke don’t want their ads to be associated with their videos? Ethan and Hila bitch about it often, but the dude makes so many sexual and offensive jokes and expects a behemoth like Pepsi to care about his ad revenue? These people are hilarious.…

It’s a problem for literally all of us, even those of us who traditionally produce family friendly content, ad revenue has just full on plummeted across the board. It’s the first time since I went full time a few years ago that I’ve started to struggle a little bit. Sure it’s worse for people with more mature content…

Hmmm. I do actually understand what he’s going for, even though it’s sad that he hasn’t learned his lesson yet. This type of humor is a very specific type of in-joke amongst privileged white people. Especially privileged white people with almost zero white guilt, like Swedes. It’s basically an ironic way of making fun…

lmfao, he won’t but good on you for wishing bad upon someone else. It won’t make you anymore relevant.

Installed, not downloaded. But yeah, your point still stands.
