Not uncommon for me to see someone post a "game idea" and go on to just describe a 4 panel comic

Online age verification is not like "showing ID to buy alcohol" because
a) the liquor store doesn't get to scan your ID and store a digital copy of it forever in a database that will inevitably get hacked
b) you don't have to show ID to go to the library because they have cocktail recipe books

It's incredible that all of the people who would shit on Wikipedia as a source because "lol anyone can edit that" are now 100% reliant on asking questions to the lying robot machine that no human has any oversight over

Nothing sexier than a woman in full body armour proudly asking you when those chimichangas will be ready because she just spent all day sending 4 wretches to the underworld and is positively starving

“AI will help with pointless interactions like item descriptions and NPC barks” if it’s pointless it shouldn’t be in the game. If there’s nothing interesting about something, cut it

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.

If you can't handle the idea of someone else getting off to things you don't even have to look at, then maybe being an adult is not for you.

People have been desperately sharing private information because they feel they need to air their marginalized traits as credentials in order to have social permission to do normal things like yearn and be annoyed and have opinions about television. That whole paradigm has to end.
it will be difficult but we're going to need a fairly radical shift in online norms over the coming years as censorship and puritan crackdowns continue to worsen. absolutely no more listing your age, mental illnesses and all your kinks on your profile. the era of shutting da fuck up is here

"Animal-related content" on Itch's banned content list in particular feels so overly broad that I wouldn't be shocked if it got turned on furry content. Fansly got hit with the same thing, after all.
