Jesse Hamm had the take to end all takes on children's media. "People who disdain writing ‘just for children’ fail to realize that those children will remember what they read, maybe for the rest of their lives. You’re not writing for permanent children; you’re getting an early start on adults.”

epic will pay for every game that gets claimed this way so yes, you are still giving money to rowling (and by extension an international campaign against trans people) by claiming this
there are other, better franchises - let this one go

The biggest reason Mastodon just does not work as a social platform is I just tried logging back in for the first time in a year and I honestly wouldn’t even know where to start on this prompt.

(OOC:)There's this ugly lamp that gets passed around the office white elephant gift exchange that I was the lucky winner of last year, along with a cheap digital picture frame.
So, like any self-respecting geek with a weird, inanimate object...
I made the lamp run Doom.

Epic pays for licensing fees for the games they give away for free as promotions. Which means even if YOU aren't paying for it, you're giving money to JK Rowling to harm transgender people AND elevating her stature by giving her franchise higher numbers.

I want to re-emphasize, the guy who has made HUNDREDS of videos calling people in the industry slurs, calling for them to be fired, calling all the studios that are showing games "woke and gay" and has harassed multiple journalists covering the show over the years is at the Game Awards.
LOL hey everyone in the industry who is at the Game Awards, the guy who has made countless videos harassing you is there!

wild time for Disney to throw a billion dollars at OpenAI when Trump is about to kill their tourism business.
NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.
The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.
Below is the full, mind-blowing list.
