I think Rose Sayer was created as a specific type of woman in that era — the Eleanor Roosevelt comparison is apt, the Suffragettes would be another. I don’t think the implication is that all women were nagging. I think it’s an acknowlegement that there wasn’t another avenue for women to get anything done if they…

Guys...I don’t want to cause a panic here, but I’m *starting* to think gaming has a male toxicity problem...

I hope this is just exhaustion and not something more serious.

There’s nothing worse than a semantic war on the Internet but i guess that’s where we are huh?

People are allowed to have opinions.

Wow. You really woke up and decided that defending the integrity of a developer very well-known for exploitative design from a region very well-known for rampant copyright infringement was the hill you wanted to die on.

Agreed. If it were just the pictures, I’d think ‘oh that’s just a generic vaporwave aesthetic’, but using the made-up word ‘Hypnospace’ is unambiguous. PUBG stole the design.

ooh, I wonder what kind of microtransactions it’ll have...

At some point the money no longer matters if the job affects their physical and mental health.

I was literally about to make a post about the weird nerds defending faceless corporation, but already one of them beat me to the punch.

Good job!

I finally figured it out.... The CDC funded gain of function research so that they could create a global pandemic which will create a diversion while they remove Dr. Seuss books, add Critical Race Theory to public school curriculums, and eventually confiscate everyone’s guns. This is a joint coordinated effort by…

How little things have changed in more than a century.

My wife is high risk and with kids coming back in full next year we are both terrified. She has the vaccine, but that clearly can only do so much. I’m right there with you about hating all of this shit, ESPECIALLY capitalism.

Yeah, personally I find the casualness of this article really terrifying. I have an infant that has to enter daycare soon. I know that people are going out and about and doing things like group fitness classes, including these babies’ caregivers and the other babies’ parents. I wish I could work remotely until he’s…

Sorry (not really), but this is a stupid risk to take, even with the vaccine. We literally just had two staff members do something similar. They have Pfizer, went out to a public place with no mask to mingle with a bunch of strangers, got infected, convinced themselves it couldn’t possibly be COVID, and then infected…

Hollywood movies have been self-censored to accommodate Chinese government for more than a decade, time for games to fall in rank?

I mean, I love Mila Kunis and all, but I’m not thrilled that she deprived us of a chance to get rid of Ashton Kutcher.

Really interesting lately seeing which people the AV Club condemns and which people it reserves the passive voice for.

You're lucky that you either haven't faced enough pain or you have whatever traits let you get through pain that you can't understand death being a preferable option to continued suffering. I've had low-grade suicidal thoughts for about half my life, it's honestly kind of comforting to know if my chronic pain never…

You can never understand suicide unless you have experienced thoughts of it yourself.
