Porn and art with sexual themes deserve to exist on their own merit, not because censoring them has knock-on effects for non-sexual content. Please stop expressing outrage by implying that censorship would be okay if it *just* affected sex workers and artists engaging with sexual themes.

What's there to defend?

I put hundreds of hours into it. Pokemon has always been a very social game for me, and everyone close to me was playing it too. I made fantastic memories playing it with my friends and fiancee. It was the game I had the most fun with in 2019. That's all that matters.

a point I make over and over re: climate change is that there’s no point at which it’s time to throw up your hands and give up, because each tenth of a degree you can prevent is worth it

2C is better than 2.1C is better than 2.2C and so on and so forth

Wow. Watch this from Zohran Mamdani. It looks like the exact "fight" and "conviction" people are hopelessly asking for from the people in charge of the Democratic party:

do US liberals go into hibernation during democrat administrations or something. the ferguson protests happened under obama & last year under biden we saw police attacking student gaza protestors all the time
I know for a fact that citizens would not be getting tear gassed by ICE and DHS in Los Angeles in June 2025 if we elected the other viable candidate for president.

I want people who like parry systems to admit they're nothing but socially "acceptable" quick-time-events.
Stand over that bullshit for what it is, people. You take them and every other instance of hitting X,A,X,B in signalled quick succession to make a character open a cupboard/ some nonsense.

I'm late on this update

1st off. F*** this, this is literally Twitter, make your domain instead of badges you mistrustful disinform account f***

2nd. You are doubling down on who we want to get verify when you suggest everyone to create their unique domain to know which is real or fake
We're excited that verification badges have made it easier to quickly recognize authentic accounts, especially in moments of breaking news.

Now, we're expanding our roll-out. Notable and authentic accounts can apply for verification or to become a Trusted Verifier via the form linked in our blog.

Hey heads up this article is sensationalizing what actually happened, which is that it's actually been disassembled and put on a Github repo for others to work on

This is nowhere near decompiled, cause it didn't even start yet

Reskeeting this again due to a new Disney remake that recently opened featuring a certain blue alien.
With the Snow White remake opening in theaters recently, I feel now is a good opportunity to post this scene from the classic animated sitcom The Critic.

In recent weeks, video game publishers Take-Two and EA both warned investors about potential "reputational" risks to the use of gen-AI in games. It's a problem that all game companies will soon need to confront: Players hate genAI.
