I’d argue this is a good week for the FGC if only because people are finally brave enough to share their stories and out the criminals and their enablers. This is a cleansing by fire that appears far overdue which hurts in the short term but hopefully makes the FGC stronger in the long term. And I don’t want to make…

Hi, since I’m seeing lots of talk about whether the headline/image are a spoiler, here’s my thinking on that: it’s only a spoiler if you look at Lev being trans as something that’s meant to be a surprise or some kind of dramatic reveal. Years upon years of trans storylines have taught us this (think: The Crying Game,…

Holy shit, that picture of the guy on the couch with the woman looking on in utter gear worship is poison. It’s maybe half a step up on the craven marketing scale from advertising smokes children.

The notion that entire, sentient races are naturally predisposed to certain levels of intelligence, or moral alignments, is baked into the game. That’s not the same as talking about “good and bad sides”.

I am so tired of the “impinging on my freedom” crowd.  No, it really doesn’t, and it’s insulting to say so.  Furthermore, it’s worthwhile to withstand a little discomfort in order to protect others.

“Just as kneeling during the national anthem is somehow an insult to not only the flag, but also to the military, the police and also to first responders.”

They need to drive that statue south a while and drop it in the Gulf of Mexico. Then white people can go scuba diving and visit it as much as they want.

You don’t need to, just read up on institutional racism at your local library.

So the game's premise is basically Baby Shark Meets Bambi.

“It may not be the most in-depth game...”

Really? You just do do that and don’t even know it?

Yeah.  Not giving a platform to performative racism isn't the same thing as being a fake ally.  Timberlake put that picture out there and called for justice.  No deputy dawgs and don'tchomeonyourwokes get to use his account to dispute his statement.  It's fast, efficient, and it avoids stupid arguements, and I'm okay…

I look at it like not giving them a voice. I dismiss greys here after i tell them to kill themselves.

...don’t ever pick up any Paradox games

You may be confused . The last Indiana Jones and the last crusade was released in 1989. Not sure what this 2008 Indiana Jones you’re talking about is.

I actually... liked the Penny Arcade comic.

Miyazaki says it as though Miyazaki is a great man, and Weinstein is some worthless, flabby, sack of crap, and Miyazaki does not negotiate with worthless, flabby, sacks of crap.
