The response from WFP is basically, “How dare you question how this all went down when our leadership is [insert identity groups here]? Oh, and by the way, internet randos are getting all up in our mentions, so it looks like this answers any and all questions about the vote tallies!”

So you’re suggesting that they should do an unfair thing, just because another group of people might do an unfair thing to another type of prominent individual? It’s hilarious to me when people take up the PR-centric argument, even though they have exactly zero vested interest in it.

It’s up to you to market your stuff, to spread the word as best you can.

For all the people who bitch about discovery on Steam, I’d really like them to show me examples of stellar games that they completely missed out on because Steam didn’t predict they’d want them. What are all these amazing games that people are straight sleeping on? I want titles.

For all of the hang wringing and crying about why Valve and Steam are the One True Platform, they seem like they are doing alot to hurt indie developers.

Nobody cares, you hack. Why don’t you explain to us again how the EGS’s policy of not allowing indie games on its platform unless they commit to exclusivity is great for indie devs?

Project 1999 is easily my favorite gaming-related thing I’ve done in the past few years. Haven’t been on in about a year now since I’ve been busy with a new job, but I constantly feel the itch to get back into it, and might start doing weekends once the bitter cold of winter sets in.

She also said transphobic shit on Twitter about Chelsea Manning, repeatedly insisting that Manning’s impetus for whistleblowing to Wikileaks was a grudge against the government for not making sex reassignment resources available to her. That was in 2017, so yeah, it becomes far more difficult to buy that this is a…

Joy Reid has been demonstrated several times over to be trash, and it’s extremely telling that she’s treated like royalty and always defended to the hilt around here.

This is the worst take ever. Gaming companies are the ones exploiting their employees, and then turning around and giving the public unrealistic release dates. So we’re just supposed to sit here, get lied to, and be like, “That’s okay, we won’t let said lies tarnish your credibility,” because somehow the alternative…

Exactly. And Uber knows that a race to the bottom would be bad for business, since they’re taking a cut. So they standardize prices, and effectively dictate all the terms of service. It may be inconvenient for them that this turns them into a transportation company, but that’s ultimately the effect. If they want to be…

Here’s the problem: if Uber drivers are independent contractors, why does Uber set the prices for the services they offer? Let’s face it: the app is not merely putting you in contact with another person so you can strike a private bargain with them. They are putting you in contact and determining how much the service…

And where that argument falls apart (and I know you’re not actually making said argument in earnest) is that Uber, not the driver, names the price. Which sort of flies in the face of the idea that they’re just matching you up with somebody, who then sells you a service directly. Uber is not only a simple middle-man,…

...while also expressing concern that it’s going to be Fight Club all over again with this thing, in terms of dumb teenage boys taking the movie’s charismatic but psychologically damaged hero as some kind of screwed-up role model. 

Yeah, this is probably the funniest take I’ve seen on any topic in a while. For starters, Blink-182 convinced a lot of dummies that they were making music somewhere in the ballpark of “punk rock,” so they were already not trying to come off as super-polished pop crooners, or whatever. That’s why Tom DeLonge got to…

Nobody cares what Dylan Farrow thinks about anything.

I find out about more youtubers these days by them not apologising for misbehaviour than I do by looking for good content.

Yeah, it really does kind of bother me that the author seems to think that penning articles like this is the way to approach concerns about new forms of male contraception. It’s far more about dunking on “cis males” than it is about, you know, spreading correct information that might actually allay said concerns.

What value would decades of research into female birth control have on understanding the potential side effects of male birth control? Are they the same drugs and have they been tested on males or something?
