this doesn't mean its a bad game and the story is honestly really good but a lot of the design decisions feel like that

this is not a complaint but silent hill f feels more like a resident evil than a silent hill game, like mechanically

please always wait for an artists invoice and don't send money with your own description, even if you know the amount and account to send it to!

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

@MrQuessos: [quote tweeting @Inker_comics] If you are going to pay an artist via PayPal, please DO NOT include ANYTHING related to commission or nsfw in the payment description. Whether out of ignorance or innocence, you could screw up someone's job.

dw too much about that, as you play you get more tools to mitigate things being too fast for you and honestly there are a couple weapons that are just designed for mashing

Also, @jay.bsky.team needs to be made to understand that her company has been in violation of their charter and Delaware law ever since she and @aaron.bsky.team explicitly allowed Jesse Singal to harrass, dox, and threaten trans women on this site. A class action lawsuit is in order.

Juno Rylee Schultz @junoryleejournalism.com · 7d

i think it is fair to request a statement from @jay.bsky.team on TRANS PEOPLE and where we fit in on @bsky.app.

i think as a transgender journalist, it's acceptable and makes sense for me to ask this

and so, the question, am i not a person as a trans girl and do i not deserve to feel safe here?

Link has always been a positive plus for Bluesky.

Let's be crystal clear the reason for his ban is goalpost moving because the CEO didn't like being called out for racism and bigotry.

That's it. That's literally it.

Banning Link, a known Black user who has been here since the beginning.
He is an amazing person. He hasn't done anything wrong.
Bluesky exists because of Black & trans people joining and inviting everyone and making it active.
Am getting tired seeing friends being banned for just talking

and hey on the topic of ID laws

do you really trust Bluesky, whose admin and c-suites physically cannot stop themselves from posting-through-it, to be able to hold onto your fucking govt ID and not leak it in a data breach like Discord?

these policies suck, they are dangerous, call your reps

The vote on Chat Control is in October, I believe, and there's only 7 countries opposed. But there's a whole lot more that are undecided since this all started.

I know it's felt a lot like 1 step forwards, 2 steps back. But keep calling and mailing, please!

i think the only reason they have 'empathy' for it, is because it unquestioningly plays the yes man to every single rancid thought in their boiled brains.

They will latch onto the next scam equally as credulously probably

you ever think about how ai people know no one in their life respects them so they desperately cling to a shittier markov chain bot for validation, ensuring that no one they will ever meet will respect them
