You didn’t have to allude to my feelings, they’ve got nothing to do with this. Switching your party to one that would be unlikely to win an election in the district you’re representing strikes me as a very strange move “represent your constituents to the best of your ability”, and she’s offered no explanation beyond…

I’ve given up on caring about who wins what in America, so that’s not the angle I care about. I’ve already dipped, and I’m not far from renouncing my citizenship.

Well, the people that voted for her thinking that they were voting for a Democrat would probably like a do-over?

I suppose this is true. I just find it astonishing that in a country as polarised as America, you can run as one party, swear you’ll never switch parties, and then do just that.

Is there a good reason for this being allowed???

That’s...weird.

Why?

This is where I’m at. I’m getting the same ick from this that I get from people that want to fuck 300 year old vampires that look 15 or some shit. At least it’s framed differently here...it’s clearly a “joke” response with a silly-ish outcome.

I don’t live in the US anymore, but when I did, shit like this would even end up on “news” channels!

Honest question: things like this happen enough now that there must be a reasonable expectation that they’ll be internet-sleuthed. Why do people still act like this in public...at all?

Isn’t Baldur’s Gate a top-down game? How often are you really gonna be seeing your character’s junk outside of weird bear-fucking?

Ok, hear me out.

I thought Skullgirls was a bit gross when it came out and thus never gave it a chance. Certainly, there’s gonna be loads of people that bought the game because it was...how do I say this charitably...unashamed to be Fanservice: The Game. It apparently had decent mechanics underneath the gaudy exterior…

I don’t think there’s any value in chambering some sort of “forgiveness” for things they might or could do later. This is what Reddit is doing right now, so this is what I’m going to base my opinion on.

They’re not just saying “you can’t use our APIs for free” though.

They’re saying “you can’t use our APIs unless you’re willing to pay us buckets of money that we know the authors of the most popular third party apps can’t afford”.

That’s what I mean by reductive. They chose the price point specifically to make it…

“Additional revenue streams” doesn’t have to mean “price out everybody else and then copy what they did maybe”. It’s not “what Reddit needs to do to survive” that’s in question here, it’s how gleefully they’re treading all over the people they’ve depended on to even get to this point that’s the problem.

I’m not saying…

Said third parties were perfectly willing to pay reasonable API fees. Reddit is pricing them out to make them stop, period, while not offering the same tools the free moderators depended on to do their volunteer jobs.

...really?

Why are there cameras set up to catch people stealing hand sanitizer.

Actually why are people stealing hand sanitizer.

Can’t he just go on Tiktok or something? How extensive is this “non-compete” clause meant to be?
