I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

No todo van a ser malas noticias, porque la multa que le acaba de poner Consumo a los hijos de puta de Airbnb de 64 millones de euros por anunciar viviendas turísticas sin licencia, me la ha puesto como el cigüeñal de un Land Rover. Ahora sólo necesito que los prohíban (un hombre puede soñar).

I want to scream this from the rooftops. I'm so tired of this "Girls mature faster" bullshit mythology being spewed even by intelligent people. And we all know why people WANT to believe it...yet people clutch their pearls about monsters like Epstein and Trump. It's ALL connected.

You don’t need to physically hurt CEO’s, there’s an easiest and legal way:
Don’t give them your money.
Cancel your subscriptions, buy secondhand and local, eat at independent restaurants instead of food chains, boycott their products, support small businesses…
Anything but giving them money.

Ok, real talk tho:
Valve is not going to announce HL3 anywhere other than Steam itself. They don't need to run ads on TGA, lmao.
You will get an email at best.
