fair points! ty for your thoughts

So it’s the GOP’s dossier from before they pulled him for VP? Huh…not sure what to do with that, exactly. Definitely some meme potential, though.

The number of users to have voiced their disagreement already exceeds that of the admins.

Seems like it’s kind of a moot point then, no? If even a majority of Ukrainian users are aware of the issues with the list, I would expect most would just leave and the list would fade into obscurity.

What does “witch hunt” even mean anymore? I feel like it has been overused to the point of losing all meaning. In this case, by “witch hunt”, the writer means “they have started going too far and making some bad calls”. They aren’t calling for people to mount heads on spikes or review bomb, as far as I can tell.

It’s a strange case, though. Who do we think follows these curators? The title of the list is in Ukrainian, so I’d guess it’s mostly Ukrainians. On the one hand, I don’t want to tell Ukrainian folks how to spend their money with respect to Russia. Maybe for some, even the slightest whiff of Russia will turn them off from the game, regardless of how logical it is. It’s not my busieness to question the mostly-harmless emotional reaction of a people under siege. For those, these curation lists might still be useful. Of course, people that care this much would probably research another way if the curator lists didn’t exist.

For others, I’m sure they would prefer a curator list that actually does the research and doesn’t list a game unless the purchase would very clearly benefit Russia in tax dollars. For those, this turn of events is unfortunate. On the other hand, those people are probably level-headed enough to do their own research on a game-by-game basis.

My point is: the impact of these curator lists existing is probably minimal. But maybe i’m wrong, idk. What do y’all think?

dickhead boss confirmed he is a dickhead by changing careers to cop. ACAB

hooray for titty sprinkles!

they DID add those crossover decks recently, and the dev has indicated that there is more additional content coming. Idk, I think having the cards in HD wouldn’t look right, because the entire game has a specific kind of pixel art. Even the smooth, swirly background has a pixel art filter on it, bc that’s the vibe that the dev really wants the game to have. Mixing them would be like when pixel art rpgs have super hi-res fonts. It just doesn’t fit right.

i like that this landed at exactly 69 upvotes. nobody ruin it!

Y’all I finally watched the trailer and now i’m kinda hyped. I’ve been watching Blue Eye Samurai on Netflix and it’s giving me those vibes. Maybe it’s just the female (but maybe nonbinary) protagonist in both media, but either way, it’s working for me and now I’m eager to see more about this one.

You make a fair point, that is a surprisingly accessible price. I could see a small audience of Gran Turismo freaks buying 8K TVs and PS5 Pros solely for that game. Though now that I say that, I feel like they are all satisfied already with PSVR2 🤔

I didn’t know about this! It’s definitely interesting as a survey of queer folks, but given how few respondents were cis, definitely seems like the census is reaching a specific crowd.

The author says as much:

This all leads us to my never-ending problem: selection bias. The survey is 100% online, and spread entirely by word of mouth and social media shares.

So it certainly doesn’t mean that the survey doesn’t have value, but it would be interesting to see this survey with with a more generalized reach. But maybe my interest is rooted in my bias as a cis person. As is, still really cool to get some actual data on the overall trends for pronouns and self-labels and all that!

We all expected that to be the case, it turns out it isn’t complete BS! But 8K TVs are currently outrageously expensive, and so most people don’t have them. Additionally, it sounds like the number of games that support 8K will be only a fraction of all the games that get PS5 Pro updates. Gran Turismo and F1 2024 are the only ones I saw called out in the video. They might have mentioned more, but I skipped around.

Dang that’s awesome! So this is extra special for you. The best concerts are the ones with bands that are about to blow up but haven’t just yet, imo

90s concert overload!! How long you been a Green Day fan? You a Dookie kid or an American Idiot kid?

holy moly gamers we are POSTING today! i love to see an active community

i put very low stock in rumors, and i put even less on rumors reported by gamerant. No shade to you casey, I just think gamerant is a clickbait publication.

The Thing lives on persimmons, clearly

no clue, i’m just sharing other people’s memes for the most part. Reverse image search?

Edit: nope reverse image search doesn’t do it. You could poke around on artvee? though trying to find a specific piece of art on there is usually a fool’s errand.

omg shut up that puppy is so cute. And Jean looks so proud!!

Congrats on the new job AND new campaign! Both are really kind of a feat (heh), and you should be proud!!
