i ended up seeing solo because a friend had an extra ticket and i had nothing to do last night. it's very not good and i had to laugh that all the dumb poo poo people said was in it was actually in it. i legit thought some of it was trolling (i would've definitely thought maul was if i hadn't seen a picture of it). in conclusion, rich evans is a hack fraud with eye problems.

This is a good video. I’m glad youtube is starting to get more voices holding a line directly against the nazi creep, although I don’t know how they can tolerate listening to one of those loving videos all the way through.

Tarquinn posted:Uh, assuming everything written in their statement is not a lie, what could they have done better, or less pathetic More than six sentences for a start. Full disclosure - I don't know who these people are, I have minimal understanding of what has happened. I had insomnia last night and stumbled across the tweet that I posted, which I popped here because I figured it was relevant. Then later on someone I know posted the statement on FB, and just reading that hit me as minimum effort. It reads as pathetic to me because because it is so bare-bones and heartless. Delving into deeper territory, and I'll remind you that I don't know all the details, but the whole 'assuming it is not a lie' thing is where I have a bigger problem. There's no timeline. "Half a year ago [person] left. At some point later they made accusations. This statement is coming out as these allegations have reached a public platform. At some point in between these events, we have had a full investigation" I can't take that seriously. How long were [person]'s allegations floating around before action was taken? How long did action take? Does HR Firm have a name? or is that their name? quote:To ensure maximum employee protection, we asked the HR firm to provide a list of recommendations for the future. Extra Credits is currently implementing these recommendations. Can we see those? Doesn't have to be the full thing, but evidence of an actual report and action plan would be really really helpful right now, don't you think? So, from my viewpoint - "what could they have done better?" loving anything!. Something. Whatever.

Went to look at that game and man, so many of the top/featured reviews are "FUKKEN CENSORSHIP I DON'T EVEN LIKE VN'S BUT I BOUGHT THIS ON PRINCIPLE", like okay so now that you all totally stopped valve from doing that thing could there be some more reviews to the otherwise.

Late Stage Capitalism has led to this phenomenon where the only true political change individuals can meaningfully express is conspicuous consumption and it's loving us up really hard.

Some of these are a real hoot at that. "I havent the slightest interest in playing this game. I still don't. I also found Hatred to be in extremely poor taste. It nearly made me sick when i played it for the first time. And yet out of all of my 500+ games, and my 6 years on this platform, these two are now my most treasured. Because if you begin censoring that which you find odious, you cease to believe in the concept of free expression." Yeah sick dude, I too stand up for free expression by giving money to bigots for their literal spree killer sim. (I'm sure the Mutiny people are fine but loving big fat lol at "treasuring" anything related to Hatred)

Freedom of speech means that everyone must always listen to and entertain tedious bullshit whenever it occurs, and also that the most important speech is video games or nazis on twitter, although most of these people probably aren’t big fans of regulations on private actors so

There was a local arts festival yesterday with a stand where you could buy "hats to offend people", or something. Had MAGA and "Make the Military Great Again" hats. I just laughed and moved on, wish I had a camera with me. I would not buy some stupid hentai visual novel to own the magachuds, though.

I have hated Extra Credits for a long time, but mostly due to the fact that they never actually cover the topic to any degree, they just raise the central question of their clickbait title and then go "Well, there's a lot we still need to learn!" Also the really dumb chipmunk voice filter thing.

sexpig by night posted:for comparison when a tiny roleplaying game podcast network called One Shot had someone close to them accused of some bad poo poo they also hired an outside firm to investigate. They, however, made a big public statement right away explaining what they were doing, that they took the claim seriously and believed the accuser, and walked everyone through the exact process being done. When the report came back that it was indeed a fake claim they posted the entire report, which had a detailed investigation and timeline and all, and posted a helpful summary to give a clear message of 'because it's been found that he literally wasn't even in the state during a couple of these accusations and there's zero communication found between them we're considering this closed'. It was 100% transparent from the start, making it clear if it was found true they'd have no issue taking direct action even though it sucks to find that about a friend. Every step of the process was public and available for everyone to see. yeah okay, that's fair. I do think there's probably a middle ground between "everything is public" and "we did the thing, no further details" that they could reach, cause I don't think literally everything should be made public or really needs to. like, privacy is still a thing, right? I can see why they'd want to save on elaboration, cause even the smallest details can open the whole pandora's box of privacy invasion by people who really want to crack that nut. but yeah okay, maybe a few more details are needed to calm people down. I'm fine with taking them at their word and ignoring them again. nine-gear crow posted:Yes. He’s the best part of the film. wait seriously? I may actually watch this film just for this (not really but hyperbole)

See, I bought Mutiny, because when it was first announced that it was going to be removed from the storefront, the devs dropped the price down to 99¢. Were it not for that, I probably wouldn't have picked it up. As far as it being a 'protest', what I figured was that since they figured their game was going to get removed from the store, they dropped it to such a low price in order for as many people to pick it up. Obviously, they wouldn't make that much from it, but neither would Steam. Going back to GOG, they've occasionally offered up their games on sale or for free when the licenses for them are due to expire (though it depends on who the publisher is).

I kind of agree but on the other hand, it's entertainment and games of empathy and solidarity aren't often fun. Interesting and provocative, yes, but rarely "fun" in the sense. Conflict is fun. But also, humans are complex creatures. It would be nice if everyone got along, but people will have different beliefs and views on the best possible action to better everyone and when two people with different ideas clash, it breeds conflict. Also murdering nazis is always good and fun. I won't hear otherwise by anyone.

It’s silly to feel guilty about what entertains you, but it’s hard to disagree with his diagnosis. “Knowing” cynicism and a refusal of a better world betray an impoverished politics and a naive capitulation to the world as it is. It all sounds like a teenager’s idea of what harsh truth is, because so many Americans have the depth of thought of a teenager.
