one of the biggest, most conformist lies a lot of people buy into is that you have to fully fit into one space or another and be this cheerleader representative PR person of the space you're a part of as a whole. but in actuality, honestly representing who you are pays off way more in the long run.

Not trying to burst any bubbles; but Spotify is over.

They are airing ICE recruitment ads, the CEO has been investing in military/AI tech, they barely pay their artists; sometimes a percentage of a cent per stream, they promote “fake/AI artist” playlists, and there’s major concerns about data use.

I gotta say this is a pretty decent list (bolstered by the fact that it's huge, but still). You'll get a better picture of where games are this year browsing through this than anything (literally anything) that happens at The Game Awards.

People are surprised when I tell them there have been over 2300 anti-trans legislation introduced. Missouri is ground zero for these attacks. Many states copy/paste language.

Sharing for awareness on the rabid aggression against trans people. Ask yourself, why are they so obsessed?

i used spotify once like a decade ago when it was the only way to listen to some of the music jon bois used in his videos, and even then it was "wait, i can't even set it to repeat one track without it constantly trying to shift me to another song?"

anyway, get a local music collection

Being a class member against Anthropic is nice and all I guess but I don’t want settlement money, I want the book I carved out of my trauma as a warning against unregulated tech to be taken out of the machine that pollutes small towns to encourage people to kill themselves

I keep seeing people trying to play down the payment processor situation, saying it's only the extreme NSFW accounts getting sacked.

Well. One of the cutest SFW furry artist got banned from PayPal. What more proof do y'all need that we need to keep fighting the good fight?

Also go support Nakufin.
I'm devastated, if I don't find an alternative that works with argentinians I'm contemplating the worst, I can't do regular jobs, art was my job for around 15 years
I don't do nsfw even when people insist me to
my life was already crumbling and now I don't know what to do

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

I used to think that my feelings on games looking more unique when I was a kid was mostly nostalgia. Turns out I was just right all along. This is a video about that.
Yes, games really WERE cooler years ago

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

Given that people are smoking, it would be good for them to have smoking options that were controlled by platforms that understand it's bad to make products that induce children to kill themselves

or Firefox could just stop pushing AI that nobody wants and everyone speaking up about it doesn't want

Soooo... PayPal is banning Asahi Linux users. Hey, can you maybe not do that please?

Yes, they ban Linux users with a GPU name containing the string "Apple M1". Anything else works.
