Meanwhile, Republicans are salivating at the prospect of all the harm they’re causing to America’s most underserved, marginalized, exploited, and abused. Because causing pain and misery is the point of everything they do.

Blizzard is practically personifying everything wrong with capitalism in the ‘modern’ world. And they’re working hard to get worse as time passes.

Uhm, at what point in the Zelda franchise history was Link not, well, at the very least androgynous? And more to the point, why should that be perceived as a *BAD* thing that a single character can be a role model to any child, teen, or young adult? How can anyone be so insecure in their self image that they react to…

Democrat negotiating tactics: If you do this for us, we’ll do this for you. Nobody gets everything they want, but everybody gets something.

They don’t even care then. Not unless said rich people are directly involved in the corporation’s operations or ownership.

Because capitalism only has a single goal: maximize profits at any cost. Because if your business doesn’t, another business will, and then your business will be out of business. At the end of the day, today’s ‘economic’ paradigm has no other possible outcome. So until we ditch capitalism, money is and always will be…

SCOTUS...on the wrong side of history...again? I’m shocked! Shocked, I tell you!

Just goes to show you — bigotry and intolerance aren’t just American problems. They’re humanity problems.

“We built Alexa with strong privacy protections and customer controls, designed Amazon Kids to comply with COPPA, and collaborated with the FTC before expanding Amazon Kids to include Alexa,” Nguyen said. “As part of the settlement, we agreed to make a small modification to our already strong practices, and will…

They are. But only because they don’t (and won’t ever) realize that the nation they fled to was responsible for the conditions they fled Cuba to escape. And of course, now that they’re here, they WON’T see that truth, because it’s too uncomfortable to acknowledge they got played. So it’s a nice circle-jerk of…

In general I agree that modding and mods is a communal experience and expertise, where people learn and share what they learn with other modders, creating a something more complex and varied than anything any one individual could create on their own. As such, it doesn’t really make sense for anybody to try to monetize…

But it’s still both. It’s about enslaving women to the demands of others, against their will or choice. And it’s about creating a ballooning population of underclass, under-served, choiceless, and voiceless people whose only purpose permitted in life is serving the wealth of the wealthy.

That’s the whole reason the ‘pro-life’ crap ever got off the ground. All the money being spent on massive, expensive PR campaigns to spread all the ‘pro-life’ lies and disinformation is coming from wealthy business owners who have a vested interest in keeping the job market oversaturated with people looking for work.…

Voting for Biden got us 4 precious years of Not Trump to breathe before the next Republican (bull)shit hurricane makes landfall and continues their apocalyptic battle to destroy anything resembling democracy, freedom, liberty, law, order, justice, etc, etc. To them, if you’re not rich, white, and male, you have no…

Yeah, and the only time Nintendo had *ANYTHING* to do with making their older IPs available was their short-lived Wii U eshop. Which they closed and abandoned.

They’re not ‘protecting’ their creativity and work. They’re not even holding it ransom. They’re just burying it in a metaphorical hole and telling the public to f*** off. The social contract around which copyright and IP laws are based is made with understanding that you make your protected works available for public…

“What do you mean ‘overbudget?’ It had no fixed budget, so how can it be overbudget? We made it this way intentionally!” — Congress.

Surely this couldn’t have resulted because police officers are trained to view everyone not wearing a badge with violent hostility and suspicion but also to shoot first, ask questions later, if they feel ‘threatened.’

The white-washing of American history continues apace.

Because I’m sure what people with eating disorders need is the hallucinatory and randomly dishonest advice and council of an AI chat bot....
