Stripe's phone operators have been sounding much more aggressive the past few days, and every time i call they give me a different excuse for who the "real" reason theyre pressuring Itch etc. Some days they say its govt regulations (they wont say which) others they say Visa/MC
Once again, to all of my Canadian followers, this is INCREDIBLY ILLEGAL here. No private company can discriminate against LGBT content in any way. It is enshrined in federal law. Call and ask stripe why they're breaking Canadian hate crime laws. Call your local NDP or Liberal party rep and ask them.

Thanks for ignoring my repeated requests to comment, and then coming out of the woodwork days later to claim that my article - which verified each game's indexing status independently - is 'full of misinformation.'
You're full of it. (thread)
Never forget that homelessness is a policy choice.
They would rather send in the National Guard to arrest and remove unhoused people than provide affordable housing and a living wage.
Suffering as policy.
The cruelty is the point.
Oh, you mean the guy who copied a Legend of Zelda recipe off of google into his historical novel??? Yeah tremendous literary value is being lost there for sure

It’s a 24/7 job where you’re lucky to receive a benefit that keeps you in legislated poverty.

Please, I beg you, STOP USING CHATGPT FOR YOUR COURT CASES.
Today I saw someone get themselves *held in contempt and arrested* because ChatGPT spit out sovcit bullshit *on a case they could have won.*
it really stuck in my head that one of the like original violent misogynist guys is like "I came to the realization that women control everything and love to destroy men when my mother held me down and forced me to take diarrhea medicine. i was thirteen years old"

That’s what we all thought about Roe. We didn’t believe it could fall, until it did.

Hot Parenting Tip: Letting your kids taste a dish before completion and asking for seasoning recommendations is a great way of getting them to eat the finished meal.
Sure, having them help more with the meal is better. But even taste tests at the end give them some control if it's been a long day.
One cool way to solve homelessness that isn’t an authoritarian take over of a city is to give everyone homes

Disabled people are not expendable.
We’re not stealing your tax dollars. We aren’t lazy. We can’t “try harder” our way out of disability.
The Nazis started with disabled people for a reason. They knew no one would fight for us.
Want to resist? Engage in disability justice (and wear a mask!)
This is one of the hardest things I've ever done: asking for help.
After a financially devastating divorce, I am asking for help getting FFS, a gender-affirming surgery for which I am having to pay a vast majority out of pocket.
Any bit helps.

When I first started board gaming there were a lot more games that really had just plain meeples etc. In retrospect I really appreciate that era. Now so many games have characters and player powers, but that also made a lot more games, well, white and male
Great idea for a games section!
Just as characters, so long a they have a strong presence

I should absolutely not ask for recommendations for #boardgames because I have too many but I was also wondering which games are the most inclusive of both bipoc and trans folks

Going on vibes or convention buzz or FOMO or access is not trustworthy, nor is it good games criticism.
