The Game Awards Future Class was clearly created to diversify the homogenous space that is the video game industry. But what happens when you only make superficial efforts to be inclusive, or when diversity is no longer in vogue and a chunk of your consumer base rails against it?

Well…this.

give a tranny help and you help her for a day. teach her how to help herself and she says "but i don't wanna that sounds really hard"

A black and white tuxedo cat with bright yellow eyes is sitting on the floor, raising one paw forward as if offering a high five.

High five from Uni! :3

Disney’s Marvel Abandons Georgia, Taking Livelihoods With It Tax incentives lured studios to help build the ‘Hollywood of the South,’ but now Marvel and others are going overseas for cheaper labor costs.

Disney's Marvel studios is abandoning the state of Georgia to film in the UK, mainly bc of the difference in labor costs from not having to pay for employees' health insurance bc of the National Health Service.

Universal health care makes businesses more competitive in the global marketplace.

Stripe says it’s accepting payments for LGBTQ content
JVA site starts working with Visa again
Mastercard reportedly panicking and making Riot moderate messages

The tide is turning
We are going to win this
Keep calling
Keep writing
Keep fighting

You can do this

More and more people reporting today that Stripe - the payment processor that Itch said were putting the most pressure on them - now have staff actively confirming that yes, they are censoring LGBT content, adult or otherwise. That this is official company policy.

This seems kinda significant.

The full piece of paper from this thread. An 8.5 x 11 of white paper in landscape orientation

did we mention we're typing in fucking landscape?

fuck it

just buying one

hopefully pay it off with the commissions we will make using it

LMAO I called Visa’s customer support service - the guy on the other line was like “are you ALSO calling about the video game payment processing? Please send us emails instead.”

Keep up the calls, folks, we’re definitely gumming up their works

Xiu Xiu and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard have both removed their music from Spotify to protest Daniel Ek’s investment and involvement in AI military technology. Musicians don’t want our art funding the war machine! Daniel Ek, do you see the trend?

goombella from paper mario the thousand year door, book in "hand" tattling on your ass

"I asked chatGPT" "I asked Grok"

yeah well i asked goombella and her tattle log says you're a bitch

GDQ is proof you can be exceedingly and tremendously successful not just accepting folks but being proud and loud and loving trans folks. So many people believe in the same thing came together to raise over 2.4 mil for a great cause. Despite everything, we're Here Together.

Trans Rights!

Groups and activists have been pushing for this for at least a week -- this was not a given. I hate that we had to fight for it but regardless, this is a WIN and big shout out to everyone who has been calling and pushing and organizing around this

Games should give you the tools to continue to play them if/when they get shut down. You should keep access to the product you paid for

We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

From Hunter S. Thompson’s ESPN page 2 column one week after 9/11.

The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

While I'm at it, this "white men are gonna turn on ICE because they're deporting big booty Latinas" shit is pretty fucked up

Already seen one lib org make a video advertisement kinda on that theme

just further objectifying women who are already subjected to sexual violence and trafficking

Not enough people discussed the part of our scoop where Stan Lee fired a gay writer because his prose was too "effeminate"

Happy Pride, True Believers!!!!!! 🙃🙃🙃

Neon from the matrix with meme font reading "BORN TOO LATE TO DEPLOY TO THE MIDDLE EAST" then "BORN TOO SOON TO DEPLOY TO THE MIDDLE EAST" then "BORN JUST IN TIME TO DEPLOY TO THE MIDDLE EAST"

You hate bigots and Nazis? Start saying it more.

You love your trans friends? Start saying it more.

You want to see ICE and fascism taken down? Fucking say it.

In libraries, we call this vocational awe. The idea that if you are invested in your calling, you should accept low wages/inhumane conditions is a nasty little trick of capitalism.

I’m an author, I’m hungry, I care deeply about my work, AND I deserve to be paid for it.

If you study the successful rebellions and resistance and civil rights movements of the past, you will note that “people who spend their time publicly bumming out everyone around them by emphasizing how totally fucked everything is” do not play a central role, or indeed, any role at all

I continue to believe that in times like these, we all share a collective duty NOT to splatter our demotivating feelings of doom and despair all over everybody else in public.

I don’t care if it makes YOU feel better. This isn’t about YOU.

Deal with those feelings outside of public venues.

Side note: A LOT of PhDs get very apologetic about the doctor vs doctor thing, like “oh no, I’m not a DOCTOR-doctor, I don’t SAVE LIVES”

1) We were here first
2) Lots of them don’t either, at least not so’s you’d notice 🙄
3) Why should I change when they’re the ones who suck
