If you haven't seen it yet, Kenneth Branagh's epic 1996 version of Hamlet got an FMV adventure game adaptation that immediately fell into deep obscurity, and I go into its history in GREAT detail. It's my most video so far!

The targeted hate against this vulnerable minority—the attempt to cast them as responsible for all the suffering and fear among Americans—is inevitably going to be used to justify violence.

Charlie Kirk’s Legacy Deserves No Mourning
The white Christian nationalist provocateur wasn't a promoter of civil discourse. He preached hate, bigotry, and division

SCOTUS thought they could ride the tiger and get what they wanted ideologically. In exchange, they would give him everything he wanted except the Fed. Just leave the Fed alone and you can ignore all federal law. But it ended the same way it has for everyone who tried to ride the tiger since 2016.

we *need* to give patience to places like cohost and itch because the alternative is like. it's this place. it's sites that don't need outside pressure to throw the marginalised under the bus.

Not thinking at all about the ways platforms built by and for independent, marginalised art & communities come under venomous attacks from their own audiences while we're all stuck here on a website that, since day one, has modelled itself on the world's premiere harassment factory

it ain't itch's fault that we have a community incapable of solidarity that just looks for people internally to punish whenever there's conflict

one of my strongest held beliefs is that "the left keeps losing because we keep arguing among ourselves" is bullshit, but that is really being tested when folks can't extend a single branch of trust to an independent store that has been actively facilitating adult and queer art for over a decade

this is why I have no patience for people relentlessly raising the temperature on itch and engaging in thought-terminating cliches like 'platforms aren't your friends' idk man are facts your friends?

Hey, as someone who makes a living off selling adult games, I would really appreciate people helping to push back against censorship by payment processors. These puritanical extremists pressuring them have been successful because they've made a lot of noise, so we should be making even more noise!
Leaf mentioned in the official itch discord server that the open case they have with Stripe right now is probably the most critical right now. Submit a complaint to Stripe here: stripe.com/legal/compla...

people in the replies being angry at itch over this is just, like, you have no politics, you have no capacity for solidarity, you have not even a frame of reference that approximates the real world, all you know is how to lash out at someone who's in reach of your anger

Thinkin' about all the Twitter bros that insisted mass consolidation by Microsoft was a good thing, actually, and would lead to a better world for developers and game audiences alike.
