I bet there’s a lot of parents of 30-something year old millennials being like “I guess they didn’t change their mind about not wanting kids…….”

A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live.

"This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario."

The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.

John Default Profile Picture: "No one read this statement and thought it was distasteful? Why did Miyamoto think this would help anyone?"

NintenDeen: "Simple: Nintendo is so depraved that they'd exploit a global crisis to boost the player count of the failed Mario Kart World and force consumers back into the Switch 2 ecosystem to boost sales and player numbers."

PlayStation Nation: "What the fuck are you doing falsely advertising sales during these trying times? I went to the website and Mario Kart World is still selling for $80 USD."

Kremling Kevin: "If you actually read the statement, it clearly says the discount is available on Nintendo eShop. Meaning the application on the Switch 2 itself, not the web browser version."

PlayStation Nation: "Point still stands."

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

Seeing people online trying to argue that this clip from Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway’s Flash isn’t political and is not inspired by real world politics at all so I will present it here with no commentary so you can come to your own conclusion

If I explain this to cis people they will look at me like I’m insane, because *this is a manifestly insane thing to have happened in real life*.

like I’m so fucking tired but I’m also so fucking angry and I can’t fucking believe it, and that’s just The Trans Experience in AD 2026, huh

My main was always pretty polite and calm at first too, a good way to keep people engaged is to have your character interested in who they are, everybody loves talking about their OC!! Things can fall into place naturally after that

At the risk of being a hammer to which everything is a nail, social media has destroyed the brains of millions of well meaning people, including many many people on the left. They’re just as brain poisoned as the archetypal MAGA uncle scrolling Facebook. This whole discourse is an example.

Reminder that your platforms/audiences are your stage. when you see a clear grift or rage bait, showing them off to MORE people just helps the grift. Attention is what they want. When you give them your stage, it's free advertising.

Your stage and time are precious. Don't give them to a grifter.

An American citizen is in far more danger from an ICE agent than from an undocumented immigrant and it isn’t even close.
