Not to worry, the market will take care of it:

"...Each agony-spasm of the nexus costs TormentCorp over $200 and earns them 0.0016 cents at most, so the torment bubble will inevitably burst within the next couple of months." (posted 3 years ago)

Steam Autumn Sale is cool and all...

But i'm much more jazzed to be a part of Melbourne International Games Week! ☕✨

Which you may have trouble finding while Steam is busy blasting their own event all over the front page.

"If your theory is correct, then why aren't we seeing any time travelers from the future in our era?"
"We're too small."
"What?"
"Just as it takes time to travel in space, it takes space to travel in time - and the minimal viable runway to stick the landing is larger than our current Universe."

The proper question to ask on the lonesome night of October 31 is not "trick or treat?", but "are you an Opener or a Closer?"

Time is a prison like any other: the key to each cell shall not be found inside said cell, no matter how many times an inmate searches it.

The liberator escapes by other means - tunnel, bribed guard, generous pardon, hole in the wall - and then comes back, keys in hand, to set the rest of us free.

1. Elsinore (2019). Best timeloop game ever. Sorry, In Stars And Time, you're amazing too, but Elsinore's got my heart first.

2. Cultist Simulator (2018). Yes, I'm still bitter about the whole *thing*.

3. Any of my or my friends' forever unfinished projects.

Social Democracy is very moddable, so while it's not real (yet), it's possible. Whether or not Disney's lawyers would be OK with such a game is a different question.

(That reminds me: I should remove a copyrighted song from my mod before SD gets released on Steam)

Collective Shout, the group that took credit for bullying Mastercard into recently censoring more platforms, stated that apparently it took them ~1000 phonecalls to convince them to give them what they wanted?

We got like way more people than that don't we?

Dieselbrain @dieselbrain.bsky.social · Jul 24

ok then. one angle of attack then needs to be actively bombarding Visa and Mastercard's phone numbers and emails.

are customer support phone numbers/emails the best avenue to start with or is there a better option?

13 of our titles have been shadowbanned despite containing no nsfw content and not being tagged as such.

They ARE tagged LGBT content.

Don't pretend this is only about nsfw works. Why are you censoring queer works?
