You not thinking about politics while consuming something doesn’t mean that the thing wasn’t created from or influenced by the perspective of a particular ideology.

It’s a comment on a Kotaku post, it took two minutes. It’s not “railing,” and if we’re wondering about the comparative value of the time it took to make the comment then surely there’s something better you could be doing with your time than to respond.

I’ve never met someone who responds to an argument with “you must be fun at parties” who is themselves any fun, anywhere, ever.

Can a puzzle truly be apolitical in such a politically-charged country?

Hah, fuck yeah. That rules.

Might help to turn to the side and wonder what the co-host sitting next to her has done to encourage this exact attitude. The dude and his camera crew personally sexually harassed people close to me at a convention for their cosplay, and I can’t imagine it was an isolated incident.

The topic of neurodivergence and trans identities is really interesting—for reasons that aren’t entirely clear, autism is overrepresented in the trans community and being trans is overrepresented among autistic people. It may be that neurodivergent people spend more time thinking about their relationship with gender…

Hell. I’m sorry to see you go, I’ll miss seeing your writing here.

You definitely have me confused with a different sanctimonious asshole!

...what? Who are you talking to? What are you talking about?

This seems like a troll I should just dismiss, but you’re I think especially confused? I think you have me confused with someone else. Trans rights are human rights and you’re a shithead, but I don’t have kids.

I agree with you, but as an aside I hate these criteria. They share with ODD being a rare instance where a mental illness can exist purely through behavioral expression, without the usual need for distress or impairment. This sucks specifically because it pathologizes specific behaviors that are monstrous (or just…

I think Tucker Carlson at the end of the day understands that he’s not actually stigmatizing pedophilia—he’s stigmatizing talking about pedophilia. But he’s evil and a grifter and doesn’t give a shit about the impact of his words as long as he gets paid.

YES WE DO. We absolutely do work to rehabilitate people experiencing homicidal ideation.

“Weird” modifies “dude,” not “Christian.” This is how adjectives work.

Especially considering the fact that the Curator’s role in the last two games has been to pop up occasionally to go “oooooh, you fucked up!” no matter what you’ve done. Even when nobody died, the Curator’s dialogue is always a sarcastic “well, you made the choices you wanted to. I hope it all pays off for you… it…

I’m sure this was an expensive change with all sorts of work-hours centered around re-recording lines and workshopping replacement names.

This project was just so clearly a scam from the outset that I’m baffled by the fact that the creators involved are big names who really, really are in a position to know better. Honestly, the pitch itself can be boiled down to “AO3 except we get to monetize your work if it gets too popular and also you have to pay us…

I don’t... I just don’t care. Be mean to mean people. Fuck you, Meghan.

“If it’s not consistent with our values, we won’t tolerate it” means a LOT less coming from the torture apologist. Like, I know what is consistent with your values. I can’t imagine what isn’t at this point. Getting caught?
