  • Amazing game, and one of those “video games as art” that is often overlooked. The gameplay itself is nothing to write home about, but the narrative would not have been nearly as powerful if it wasn’t completely interactive.

    Maybe we could get some young, impressionable, IDF kids to play that white phosphorous sequence so they can learn what it feels like in a video game without having to actually murder countless civilians.




  • If I offended anyone, I apologize. But man… People like you make this shit look bad (I know this is old, I just saw it).

    I respect people’s choices with respect to gender expression. What I don’t respect is people who use that shit as a cudgel to censor opinions they don’t like that are entirely unrelated to that subject.

    That person had NO pronouns listed next to their name. I frankly don’t clock people’s usernames before commenting so had no idea what their username even was. That said, one could argue that the name Emily implies nothing about a person’s preferred pronouns. Unless you know them personally, or they complained personally about this, then YOU are the one assuming gender and pronouns. Fuck dude, why am I even assuming that the person’s username is their real name? Oh no, I just said “dude” are you going to ban me?

    Two people who have never seen/heard/spoken to one another discussing something on the internet, and one is supposed to, what, intuit the other’s preferred pronouns? What if Emily did not identify as a woman, and you just corrected me? It’s almost as if “cool man” isn’t gender specific anymore, and you know that.













  • Fucking hope this site is in no way representative of the voting population, because Jesus Christ.

    That, or all the “I’m totally a progressive that suddenly learned about Gaza last week and refuse to vote for Biden because of it” astroturfing is shifting their gears to Harris.

    They were looking for a new unified attack vector, and then she went and said this and they realized they could just keep doing the same old tired shit.

    Reminder: if you give a single shit about Palestine or the people who live there, you will do everything you can to prevent Trump and down ballot Republicans from winning. At all costs.

    If you can’t see the forest for the trees, you’re gonna find out real quick what happens in Gaza when Trump wins. Assuming you actually give a shit about those people and aren’t just using them as political pawns to try to change the sentiment regarding Kamala Harris.

    All you need is the ability to write at a high school level, and as long as you’re confirming their biases, you can convince these people of literally anything.

    A group of hundreds spent weeks (months?) hanging around Dealey Plaza because they were certain that JFK was going to appear and, I dunno, rescue them from communism or whatever.
