One of the shitty things about the racist and anti-lgbtq extremist direction of this administration (and all those like them) is people and corporations quit celebrating, or even supporting, marginalized people to avoid 'trouble.'
Fuck trouble. Fuck bigots.

As a DA nerd, I have every reason to hate Anthem. But I just cant find that energy. Its just sad.
An ego too big, a team overworked, a fandom ignored. It was made for greed, died for greed, and left people hungry and hurting. A company forced it into exsistance then forbid anyone to love it.

Anthem the game had fun gameplay and deserved a chance to get better with the Anthem Next team.
Anthem the project drove good people out of the company and put others in the hospital.

I had logged into the hanger bay to be with other people, but I was the only one standing there when it all dropped. Kinda sad about it 💔

I was there the day the Anthem Demo opened, I want to be there the day it ends. In about an hour, I'm going to attempt to be there 🫡

Anthem wasn't my thing, but I did have fun with it. So I and many others want to be there when it shuts down.
At this point, we don't know when exactly it is. We know it's the 12th, and my guess is that it's going to go down on a PST time table (as it launched based on PST). So plan accordingly!

The biggest problem I have with Gail's X-Men is that there isn't nearly enough of it and I have to wait for new issues even though I want them right now

Growing up is realizing Telltale games "your choices matter" doesn't mean "the story will drastically change based on your choices"
"I saved X character but they die next episode" but you prolonged their life and changed how they'd die, that's still affecting the story

while i'm getting pissy about DA, my hot take: Taash is a great character and you not liking them says more about you than Taash.
Like its one thing to just not click with them, but the hate I see just borders on people not realizing they just don't like interacting with some types of people.

The rpg groups at my school didn't allow girls.
So I got invited to a game from a guy at a rival school half an hour away and had a blast.
PS. I marred that guy.

PPS. I played a hobbit warrior!
