Question for my game industry friends: Does anyone know of a way to contact Markiplier for an interview? I want to have him on my podcast to talk about Iron Lung, amongst other things!

my social media tl has been very hard to look at latelt given all these things in the game industry being talked about (re: epstein files)… it’s important tho.
either way, the only thing i really feel like posting is this. sharing it makes me feel better.
believe victims. stop vilifying victims.

“Let People Enjoy Things,” like “Let People Hate Things,” is a nothing phrase—an abdication of saying anything substantive, dressed up as generosity. Its real function is to discourage any kind of thinking.

Critics shouldn't worry about crowd management.

Person: Arielle, why do you always justify and overexplain every little thing when writing about a game?

Me: I experienced Gamer-Gate 2.0 and rabid fans in my YouTube comment section.

Swen, by now you should know the difference between a comment that's left in good faith and one that isn't.
