Why the fuck is the next Tales remaster Berseria?
Hearts, Abyss, Legendia … so many games in the series are unplayable on modern consoles. But no, let’s remaster a game from 2017. 😑

Vaccines DO NOT cause autism - there is extensive research showing this. Resurrecting old, discredited, fraudulent work is shameful.
Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms.
This is dangerous & disappointing.

Quelle fucking surprise. This wouldn’t be anything to do with the appallingly low number of women in high positions in the HE sector, would it? WOULD IT?!
'THE’s analysis includes more than 120 institutions from the government’s gender pay gap service providing undergraduate education in 2024-25, and excludes school trusts and further education colleges.' 1/3
Gender pay gap growing across majority of UK universities
More than half of higher education institutions failed to improve gender pay equity last year

A short message for the fucking monsters behind the attack at Goldenhorn.
Whether the folks at this convention were furries or not, they were simply trying to have a relaxing time with friends in a space they felt safe. You elected to ruin that.
I hope you have the days you all fucking deserve.

Just got to the cinema and there is someone in here who has taken off both their shoes and socks. I don’t go to the cinema massively often, but that doesn’t *feel* like correct cinema etiquette.

Just seen that the new Call of Duty, the same one that clearly has a multimillion dollar marketing campaign and will be a full-price AAA release, has used generative AI.
