these people should be mulched

'These decisions are carefully considered in line with the charity’s legal responsibilities.’

certainly nothing evil happens when people are acting in line with their “legal responsibilities”!!!

Like. You can even have limited empathy for her specifically and maybe even a bit of schadenfreude without going all the way to “fuck you, it’s correct that you are misgendered because you specifically suck”. I won’t lose sleep over Caitlyn receiving the exact treatment she has advocated that trans people should receive… But it’s still wrong.

Edit: to take the most extreme analogy: you may not feel sorry for a kapo being pushed into the gas chamber but neither should you take pleasure in it. Even if you don’t care about the victim, Nazis carrying out their agenda is always bad.

I really doubt they will abandon a near complete project based on a highly popular IP over a leak. If they do that’s a shame, but… Doubtful it will happen.

Sorry for the people who work on it and probably would still work until the release.

No one we should give a shit about is losing their job over this except maybe the leaker. They aren’t going to just cancel the release and animators/writers/whatever either already have been paid or still will be. The only people who might miss out are marketing and their ilk, and I just do not GAF.

I would assume it’s also why the only traditionally published games we get public betas for are things like bg3 and ER where they have a huge amount of public will built up, the series is extremely popular, and the team know they’ve totally nailed it.

If they were younger they would do it more quickly and competently. This is not being snuck past doddering old weirdoes who don’t know better, they’re fully on board.

“true leadership” after what, 80 years of Gaza genocide, several years into the current escalation, and multiple years since the charges against Netanyahu have been around… Yes it certainly is an example of European “leadership”.

The problem is that they are not real and are instead human ideas, and thus have all the same issues that humans have. A real, good, powerful god simply would not let organisations like the Catholic or Protestant churches (riddled with pedophilia and SA, constantly covering up for it, complicit in crimes against humanity all over the world and throughout history) present themselves as that God’s representation on earth. I assume the same goes for all large religious organisations, but am not familiar enough with any of them to say.

It’s called a “bald eagle” iirc but I think you’re being unfair, it didn’t ask to be the emblem of the most evil civilization in human history.

Um, uh. WH40k!

Say what you will about ffvii but those painterly, hand rendered backgrounds were really nice.

a sinking ship is a logistical issue best solved by improving downstream supply lines

Old elbow-greasy? He’ll find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory no doubt…

What an incredibly silly thing to say, as if there isn’t a veritable army of people effectively building and rebuilding cathedrals using historical techniques to this day. Poor ole stepfather been done dirty, now everyone knows how ignorant and bad of a builder he is…

Normally I tell people to step away from the lathe but I actually think you might be the correct custodian for it

mashed potatoes are unironically good though

ding ding ding, nailed it. It’s depressing how heavy the crackdown has gotten, in the 60s you could still make trek as long as you didn’t explicitly say “the federation is a mature communist society”.

Sci fi is I think still in a “dark and gritty” phase. No one seems to be making hopeful stories about a humanity that has survived and transcended capitalism, and that’s a shame. We could do with more hopeful stories.

Of course they get a say. They did get a say, they literally made the show. But I also get to have an opinion, and my opinion is that they fucked up royally and made a show that fundamentally betrays everything that made old trek good. I’m not saying they shouldn’t get a say, I’m saying their work is shit.
