gacha games are definitely the thing that as a critic i am the most rude online about, but i simply believe they should be regulated into non-existence, both a poison on the industry and also maybe its most honest form. i strongly recommend the GSSB episode on Addiction By Design to everyone:

Look, I say this with love because I get it, I have ADHD too, but the "burned out gifted and talented kid" thing is deeply cringe and needs to stop. We're *all* burned out, it's weird to use it for humble bragging.

You’re probably all bored with this but we (the tech workers of The NY Times) are still on strike because management refuses to come to the table. Thanks for your support and continuing to boycott Cooking and Games. #BreakYourStreak

I spent most of my adult life living under rabidly right wing, deeply racist governments here in the UK. They went more or less unchallenged for 14 years and when things finally changed, it was deeply compromised. Life can and does go on. Lots of people won't make it, but the rest of us have to

if you think chat gpt produces good written work, you are a tasteless dimwit who should go find a horse, kneel down behind it, and bang a pair of cymbals together so it can stave your temple in and finally deliver you to perfect happiness.

Look, I'm not saying the Jedi Council did a good job handling Anakin and the Clone Wars, but if some gurning princeling rocked up the to the Supreme Court and demanded to be made an SC judge in his late teens on the grounds that he's a special boy who's good at killing, you wouldn't let him either!

I'm fully aware of how silly this sounds, but I'm really annoyed that Glasgow Central now has one of each of the worst major coffee chains in it. It's not that big! Who needs Starbucks, Costa, Black Sheep and fuckin Pret all within view of each other?!? Who's that for?

Gaza has gone dark The team at @palestinestudies.bsky.social has been translating & publishing messages from Gazans as they come in—which we at @proteanmag.com will be republishing here as well, so the world can hear from the people that Israel is trying to extinguish proteanmag.com/2023/10/15/l...

hey all, I recently discovered five kittens in my backyard and took them to a friend who has been taking care of them. I could use some quick help recouping costs for food, basic supplies and a vet visit! I also have wallpaper sets, see reply

A whole new generation now get to experience what it was like here after 9/11, discovering just how frighteningly bloodthirsty their country's leaders and cultural figures can become as soon as there's "undesirable people" they can target. Plus c'est la même chose.

Now that they're sure they're not winning the next election, it's fully "just say whatever we want, who even cares" hours for the Tories now, huh? Love to see the biggest cunts in the whole country completely unchained, just yelling manically on BBC news

I present to the court exhibit B, video footage that shows the officers in question failing to 'suck it up' and clearly demonstrating multiple 'skill issues.' My client would like to add: 'Lol. Lmao.'

Using stimulant medication makes for a weird experience, like you have to get up early in the morning to hand crank your car for a while before you can drive it. There's a whole process to go through right when you're least mentally capable of actually doing it, but it's essential to start your day

When stories put cops in heroic or uncritically sympathetic roles, it honestly ruins it for me. I'm just so viscerally grossed out by it that it taints the whole experience. Unfortunately, it's also very common 😑
