in reaction to this tweet i have had a concerning number of women come in to my stream to express how they have also recently received voice comms bans for standing up for themselves against misogynists and terrible comments???
it's a little concerning that it feels like the only way you can react in this situation according to riot is to say NOTHING/mute them in case it violates their terms/policy?
i myself refuse to do this, as do the majority of women playing games. we have a voice and deserve to use it especially standing up for ourselves playing a silly little video game and in these situations where we're receiving harassment/abuse regularly for simply for being a woman.
it also feels like more often than not we aren't getting any feedback for bans/action for the instigator.
feels a lil dookie man🥲
"Not all men"
Just 80 men in a small region of France who chose to rape Gisele Pelicot.
Just 70,000 men in a Telegram group rape chat discussing how to drug and rape their own moms, sisters and wives.
Just these men having a "pro rape meet up".
Her name is Bohlale Mphahlele. Not 16 year old girl. The headline should read :
Bohlale Mphahlele, at merely 16 years of age, has invented something to protect all women everywhere. She’s a legend.
Fun fact, it’s estimated to cost between $11-$30 billion to end homelessness in America. Our lawmakers still haven’t found the funds for that but they’re funneling $75 billion to ICE’s budget.
I am becoming progressively more worried for our humanity due to extensively terrifying improvements to AI generated content media.
From blatant misinformation to even the recent commercial adaptations of AI (acquisition of Suno into the music industry) WHICH NOBODY NEEDS.
We need artists to thrive - not feel discouraged.
Please be weary with what you see or hear online, contemporary media feels like nothing is real anymore.
AI sucks and we need to stand up against it.
James Cameron: "In Star Wars the good guys are the rebels, they're using asymmetric warfare against a highly organized empire, I think we call those guys terrorists today."
George Lucas: "When I did it they were Vietcong. That was the whole point."
There is nothing wrong with citing the Bible in an academic paper. Students do it all the time. I did it on numerous papers. But she didn’t cite the Bible. She didn’t reference any verses or include citations. She just stated her opinions without supporting cites. Not academic.
Not only did she know about them and exactly what was in them, and chose not to lift a finger to get them released, but she then sent one of Epstein’s top clients to lecture Arab-Americans on why Israel supposedly has every right to commit genocide and ethnic cleansing against their families.
The K-Hive needs to shut up and piss off already.
The Last of Us director Bruce Straley says he won't use generative AI even if it produces something "compelling"
"It's a snake eating its own tail. It can't grow and think for itself, it just consumes"
