MERY CHRIMBAS! ALSO LOVE THE NEW DESIGN! <3 Too cute!

I deal with something similar, though more so because of my ADHD/Autism; I have trouble speaking at times, so I can come across as unintelligent or bumbling

I write far better than I speak, which has lead to being treated like a child at best, incompetent at worst.

It fucking sucks. 👿

But why not report it? Well, the ship had sailed. We had unchecked fascists in the office, people taking the piss out of BG3's gender options, multiple cases of sexual harassment, and more.

More importantly, we were told that if someone is important enough they will not be dealt with.

One of the other office weirdos, and sexual harassment afficionado Felix Pedulla (current CDPR employee) walked past me in the office one day.

He makes a weird remark about my tits, and then to "confirm" something grabs my crotch in the middle of the office. No fear, no shame.

And there's a lot of minorities on the team. Yet, bigots abound in the studio. Swen is happy to profit off the cachet of making a "woke" game while letting bigots endanger minorities in his studio

My worst experience, as a trans woman, was shortly after coming out in work.

Swen's response? "He's invaluable to the team, it's too hard to replace him this close to release"

Naturally the vibes got worse. Hanging out at lunch now sucks because these guys might bring their bigotry, like complaining that Aragorn is black in the new MTG crossover set.

3/6

After a while he had a little cohort of freaks that shared some of his sentiments.

Everyone was uncomfortable with this guy. Folks went to Swen and said "Hey, this guy is a weirdo fascist. He's making everyone uncomfortable. He's at odds with the team's values"
