The truth is, way too many journalists & content creators sat there and said nothing when SESTA-FOSTA passed, when OSA passed, when OF nearly lost porn due to paypros, even during this summer’s Collective Shout situation. A slow apocalypse for the free and open internet has been unfolding for years

I had a dream last night that we hired a duck translator, but he kept saying the duck was talking too fast so he couldn't understand it. I was just starting to consider it was a scam when I woke up.

I really wish content creators would stop hyping up Where Winds Meet as an MMO. The game looks incredible, but if people go into it expecting something like WoW or FFXIV they're going to be disappointed. I worry about chuds bashing it after finding it not to be what they anticipated.

It's cool how we keep proving over and over and over again that there's a significant market for narrative-heavy, character-driven, single-player experiences in video games and publishers just categorically refuse to believe us

I must live under a rock or something, but I didn't hear about this "alternate Wikipedia" until last night. It's like Wikipedia, but written by AI, inaccurate, and "anti-woke"? I'm sure that's gonna do great. (Sadly, it probably WILL do great, to a certain demographic...)

I propose November 1st as resurgence day. Halloween ends, and we all pick up the phones again. MasterCard and Visa, bare minimum, once per day. Every day. All of us. They are only hiring the usual number of holiday workers, this would frighten credit card companies. “It’s not going away”
A source familiar w/ internal workings at MasterCard notes the company does not plan to recruit additional call center workers for the Christmas season, as MasterCard does not expect higher call volume than usual. A resurgence of calls re censorship during the busy season would be huge strategically

I wish I had friends who played Honkai: Star Rail so I could geek out over lore theories and share memes that make no sense to most people.

Common misconception: The game is actually called "Dungeons IN Dragons". You have to explore the massive colon of a dragon.

Adjusting to a new medication, which has kinda knocked me into a vegetative state these past few days. Hopefully, I'll adjust and get back to work soon, starting with the "Ask Mythos Anything" article that's been getting delayed due to my brainfog.

the funny thing about this is folks get RILED UP sayin things like 'if this is true then a painter would be a painter if they never picked up a brush' or 'an actor would be an actor if they never had a role'. YES that is the point. in art the empty space also has meaning. NOT doing also has a shape
one of my most controversial art opinions, but i do not think you need to finish a book to be an author. lots of talk on 'WHEN do you become a REAL writer? 10000 words? 1000 word?' personally i think it takes ZERO words to be a valid writer. john cage would still be a musician if he only wrote 4'33
But I haven't finished a book yet, Chuck

Starting to hear rumblings from organizers, activists, interested parties that they want to advance further on protesting payment processors. Not enough to call, not enough to sign petitions. It’s time to protest in person, IRL at the locations of these businesses — PayPal, Visa, MasterCard

No, it's not an "overpriced sub". It's a premium sandwich for premium eaters.
