@Tabdon99 @dumplings_r_yum@dantibs @reallifesenator It’s not a double standard in this instance. You can say “I enjoy spending time with my female roommates” but you shouldn’t say “I enjoy spending time with females.” Adj vs noun does matter.
@rosspayton listened to your great ep. of Ludonarrative Dissidents about Bluebeard’s Bride. Re: players breaking out of the constraints of the moves - the game wants you to feel the constraints women in the real world face when confronted with these horrors - the ineffectiveness.

@SyntaxSeed @doug_sartori In addition to that, local managers don’t know how to recognize and grow new talent, and they’re impatient with new talent “earning their keep”, unwilling to pay junior tech folks competitively
@SophNar0747 I guess it’s gatekeeping if “racism isn’t cool” equates to “you aren’t welcome to play anymore” for you… but otherwise this isn’t gatekeeping even if you hate wokeness
