I will say this about being thrown under the bus: the view fucking sucks, but at least you get a good look at how the machinery works.

I hope this email gets lost and finds someone else entirely.

VILE's subject matter is unsettling (it's a horror game) and uncomfortable (it's about objectification, parasocial relationships, stalking, and worse) but the actual CONTENT of the game is PG13.
There's a growing number of games that have apparently fallen foul of Steam's 'No because we say so' rule that are still being happily sold on other major storefronts like GOG.

Also recently DreadXP-published game Vile was outright rejected by Steam too, despite containing *nothing* objectionable.
Vile Is Banned

OH is that quoted bit the cause of the day's issues? Gosh, here's the real secret.

Many writers don't need to pretend that they make their money from the book; they do make their money from the books.

They're just poor. They make as much money as their neighbors who are CNAs or Walmart greeters. 🧵
i mean it's odd to say "tell us how you make your money" and then not actually let us respond, but

Hello, I make my money from writing books and through the kindness of people who bail me out of emergencies on ko-fi and kick in a few bucks a month on patreon

my biggest advance was $15k per book

the most gen-X take I have is that I consider "real person fanfic" to be a grotesque violation of fan boundaries and that writing and posting erotic fiction about a real human streamer or podcaster or celebrity is unhealthily parasocial at best and borderline stalker behavior

The story told here--one where anecdata suggests agency and autonomy have run amok and nameless activists are to blame--certainly rhymes with the NYT's disastrous panic about trans kids. Then you realize it's literally being written by the same author.

Everybody is going to the hospice to say their farewells and meet with the mortuary people, and I'm staying home to be violently ill because that's the kind of day it is.

see also 'if your AI created revenge porn of underage girls we're treating it as if your CEO personally created and sent CSAM'
see also 'if your AI hit a kid and dragged them 500 feet in your self driving car we're treating it as if your CEO was personally behind the wheel and texting during it'
maybe we just say 'if your AI said it we're treating it as if your CEO said it to their face' for the purposes of liability

Gianmarco Soresi is a fantastic comedian who has spoken positively about the furry community. This is his Crowd Work bit during this year’s Furpocalypse!

I’m glad to see a brand new flamingo! I think it suits him (pun intended)!

Note that all these chatbots are made by billionaire sex pests, who are desperately trying to make other people see humans the same way they do: inanimate objects to be used for one's own whims.

The people making these, openly say they see other people as NPC's.
The thing about these guys forming relationships with chatbots is that they will start treating actual women like the chatbots.

And when real women don't fawn, don't glaze them the way these digital yes men do, express opinions, they will view them as *defective* chatbots.

Our bathroom has a mirror on one wall and, on the wall adjacent to that, a medicine cabinet with a mirror, so that there are two mirrors right next to each other at right angles.

It's really fucked up because you look up and you see your reflection, but if you look to the side, you see yourself.
