The news is out that Gawker Media, our parent company, is up for sale as part of a filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy…
Sorry, Couldn’t resist. Low hanging fruit and all that.
Yeah, I have a hard time seeing it as anything else too. It’s amazing how naked women can be used as a symbol for nearly anything. Thing is, no matter what the subject, it’s still objectification. This thing is especially dubious since it’s a white dude yelling “for our daughters!” LOL, wut?
“And when I got in my truck, you know, I was so proud, because I felt like I finally drew a line in the sand and stood up for what I believed.”
So GGs were complaining about censorship in Nintendo games, and now want Baldur’s Gate to be censored.
As sad as it makes me, and as much as I would LOVE to see it, a Transmet adaptation would be as tricky as the Preacher one.
I think companies really need to get out of the habit on firing people because the internet demands a sacrifice. It only encourages people to continue using toxic behaviors to push their agendas.
So wait, they’re angry that unnecessary objectification and sexualization is being removed from their games, so they’re accusing one of the people who works on the games of... sexualizing and objectifying characters?
Last week, white actor Finn Jones (best known as Loras Tyrell on Game of Thrones) was cast as Danny Rand, the white…

Seriously. I want to know how many of the people jumping on him are actual people of color versus how many are grandstanding whites who want to out-ally an obvious ally.
This is a rare feeling for me, but does he really deserve this level of vitriol? Like I get it, his tweets were incredibly naive and definitely speak to the cloud of privilege he must have lived in his entire life, but also the fact that he was disturbed by what he saw suggests to me that he has at least a shred of…
I really need to finish this game.
Yeah, they didn’t “yuck it up like a couple of old racists”, he pretended to do that so that he could deliver the line. The entire point of that bit was that he wasn’t sorry at all and he actually doubled down on the idea that Gibson is a piece of shit. There’s a lot to hate Gervais for, but this is isn’t it. As you…
Not really getting where the hate for Gervais is coming from. To me he remains a great example of the comedian who always punches up and never punches down.
Funny how people are all about crowdsourcing medical payments on a small scale, but mention that this, you know, works on a nationwide scale in every other developed nation? “Socialism!”
The Gone Home devs' follow up game should focus on a men's rights activist struggling to come to terms with having his opinions validated less and less frequently. Also he's magically switched bodies with his hamster.
