But... It couldn’t center on a straight romance. The main conflict of the game and the literal reason the home is empty is that your sister is gay and your parents are homophobic. Every single element of the game is informed by that. It’s like saying that the film milk is just ok and if it wasn’t about a gay dude it…

Yeah no shit. The story’s about a young girl discovering her sexuality and how it affects the rest of her life, her relationship with her family.

So many things came out about that I guess “legally” his troubles are over (for now) but I doubt his reputation troubles will ever be dismissed, seemingly for good reasons.

From all accounts I’ve heard he was a huge pain in the ass to work with too. If he wasn’t outright belligerent/creepy/annoying, he was barely around... or was but you wouldn’t even see him, just his remote controlled car with a microphone attached to it that he drive around the office.

They dropped him over him hitting on younger fans via social media.

Exactly. And wouldn’t you know it, most celebrities who get “cancelled” don’t seem to realize said “cancellation” traces back to THEIR behaviors. The exact shittiness that causes people to turn their back on them stops them from seeing the obvious reasons why.

I’m sure the Dilbert guy is already working on something.

It’s not really important to the story of this case.

Tucker Carlson will still find something to bitch about even if it’s on his network.

“This new animated filth right here on this network is so vile and disgusting that now I’m going to have to try twice as hard to encourage young white males to commit hate-crimes against minorities!”

Yeah, his own game company and Cartoon Network cut ties with him REALLY fast, which makes me inclined to believe that this accusation is the tip of the iceberg.

The LEGAL presumption is innocence. He got the benefit of that presumption with the domestic violence allegation, and now he’s a free man. Doesn’t mean people who aren’t a judge or an empanelled member of his jury can’t look at his other skeevy behavior and draw their own conclusions.

The presumption is “not guilty” as far as the legal system is concerned. Employers can draw any conclusion they want. 

Cool! Can’t wait for Justin Roiland to create the first animated show to air exclusively on Fox News.

You can continue to see more Rick & Morty since that’s not going anywhere. The plus side is theres one confirmed child groomer no longer working there too!

Soooo... We’re gonna continue to ignore the DM’s he sent underage girls?

There’s a significantly greater chance of him being struck by lightning twice, winning the lottery, and being a victim of a shark attack than that happening.

I had honestly forgotten about the domestic abuse allegations, I thought most of his being “canceled” was on the basis of the number of inappropriate texts with an underage fan (which then prompted other similar texts and DMs to be released).

Seriously. Focusing on one while ignoring the other feels like “Just don’t look over here.”

While obviously we don’t know the exact specifics of what actually happened here, it was pretty telling that everyone who knew or worked with him was immediately ready to accept it as fact because of all of their experiences dealing with him and his history of behavior everywhere he went. The number of stories that…

I mean, there’s still all that horrific shit of him sliding into underage girls DMs and telling them they’re hot jailbait.
