The thing that really gets in my craw about Tim Sweeney's bitching over AI disclosure is that these are the same people who want to tell us how great AI is going to be for games. Like, which is it? Are you proud that you're using the tool or aren't you?

apparently saying that "JK Rowling can die" (not even a threat) is a bannable offense now under bluesky's "respectful discourse" policy
respectfully, fuck that
she spends millions on genociding trans people *civilly* and legislatively while smearing us as threats to women
she can burn in hell 🔥

this feels like another iteration of the "what if I give a homeless man money and he buys booze" thing. So then he bought booze, so what, you are not his personal life coach. You did your bit now go live your life.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

“I just have concerns about fairness in sport” - no, you don’t. There’s nothing fair about elite sports. You’re just looking for post hoc justification because we give you the ick

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

Either you understand that there is an organized campaign to push trans people out of public life with the explicit end goal of "morally mandating us out of existence" that is backed by some of the wealthiest individuals to have ever lived, or you're simply not equipped to grasp what's happening.

JRPGs where the game ends if the main character falls in battle, even if other party members are alive. Persona and FFXIII tried to fix something that wasn't broken. It doesn't make me feel like I'm "embodying the character." It's stupid.

The louder they shout about "biological reality", the more I can hear the "gay sex is unnatural" echoes from the 1980s.
Reactionary cunts, the lot of them. Then, and now.

I struggle not to feel creatively disingenuous if a single line of dialogue is edited by someone else, and that’s an inevitable part of my job.
Anybody who can feel proud of what they’ve “made” using a plagiarism laundering device is someone who hasn’t got a shred of respect for their own ability.
