I've spent a lot of time organizing my walkthroughs (and livestreams) into playlists!

YouTube doesn't have channel-wide playlist search and scrolling through 500 of them is insanity, so I've made categorized spreadsheets sorted alphabetically so that you can find up-to date videos.

Her model was never "fixed" because people complained about women having jawbones after the first trailer released.

The fact that this collective delusion about femme characters can be appeased with lighting and focal length tweaks should've shut down the conversation as soon as it started.

That stupid speculative video has 67K views and is full of comments saying "Konami good unlike western studios who make woman ungly".

In the end, no geometry or textures were changed.

Feminine is when key lighting is soft, apparently.

Either you understand that there is an organized campaign to push trans people out of public life with the explicit end goal of "morally mandating us out of existence" that is backed by some of the wealthiest individuals to have ever lived, or you're simply not equipped to grasp what's happening.

Everything about this game is just so "Yeah, this is what videogames should be", the visuals, hud, soundtrack, it's perfect (at least the japanese version is)

Panel 1: Titled "Average Yuri Plot Beginning", and it's a girl sitting on a stone wall at a park on a sunny day, shaded partially by the leaves of the tree above, saying "th-there's this girl ... and she's ... annoying." She's got brown hair with straight bangs, and is wearing a red-and-yellow dolphin-logo t-shirt and high-waisted jean shorts. Panel 2: Titled "Average Yuri Plot Middle", and it's a massive meteor colliding with the Earth, lava-filled cracks meandering from the point of impact and lava and smoke rising from around the meteor. Panel 3: Title "Average Yuri Plot Ending", and it's two simply-drawn girls (one of whom is the girl from the first panel) standing next to each other, smiling, and holding hands with dumb little blank expressions. Confetti is falling around them. The other girl has her dark brown hair in a messy bun, has purple eyes, and is in a red-and-white athletic tank-top, black tights, and red leg warmers.

It would be extremely cool if a bunch of people called payment processors over Black Friday weekend to ask why they're telling people what they can and can't buy with their own money. This holiday season, give the gift of calling payment processors over Black Friday weekend

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.

What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

I keep seeing people trying to play down the payment processor situation, saying it's only the extreme NSFW accounts getting sacked.

Well. One of the cutest SFW furry artist got banned from PayPal. What more proof do y'all need that we need to keep fighting the good fight?

Also go support Nakufin.

Mastercard is REALLY trying to pass the buck off onto banks (who, granted, ARE part of the problem but its still mostly MC and Visa)

do as Ana says here and tell them your bank told you to contact THEM. easy way to tack on more time in the call
