@__punchdrunk One my fave things about Nu:C is that Eiden’s og bio on the website said that he knew from young that he was gay. I found that very interesting that the game was like “THIS BITH GAAAAAY” from the jump
My soapbox speech is that your creativity is a form of divinity. To outsource that to any other vessel especially one predicated on the theft of natural resources & the imaginative work created by others before you, is a waste of the time, mind, & soul you’ve been given. 🤍
you'll grow up to be loved in ways you can't even imagine, little one. one day you will be surrounded by people who cherish you for who you are, and by people whose lives you've touched more than you will ever know. happy birthday, eiden ❤️🩹
1.3 MILLION PEOPLE ASKED THE EU TO STOP COMPANIES FROM DELETING GAMES THEY PAID FOR.
THE ANSWER WAS NO.
The "Stop Killing Games" initiative wanted one thing: when publishers pull the plug, don't let them remotely destroy copies people already bought.
The European Commission's official response:
- It will not require publishers to keep games playable - says forcing them would go too far
- Reason given: publishers' copyright and IP rights come first. Your purchase comes second.
- The solution: a voluntary code of conduct, developed together with the same industry that kills games
- Plus an awareness campaign reminding you of the consumer rights you supposedly already have
1.3 million signatures. Years of work. Multiple hearings.
And the part that says everything: according to the campaign, Ubisoft got a seat at a closed-door meeting with the Commission before the decision. The 1.3 million people who signed did not.
Publishers can still brick your purchase whenever they feel like it.
If buying still isn't owning, then at least now it's official.
LATE DIAGNOSED WOMEN ARE ANGRY FOR A FUCKING REASON - IMAGINE GROWING UP BELIEVING YOU WERE THE FUCKING PROBLEM, WHEN YOU WERE ACTUALLY STRUGGLING WITHOUT ANY SUPPORT.
@leporidax Looks like they’re just going around different fandoms to start shit. They have retweeted several pics of display collections calling the owners p*dos for having chibi figures 🙄

Guillermo del Toro says AI is a form of "natural stupidity"
“We are on the verge of image illiteracy. We are on the verge of cinema illiteracy... The pact between man and image is sacred, but we are in a time when that is in danger... We are told images can be generated by artificial means. The existence of an image is not just to be there. It is to connect us, to make us feel beauty,” he said.
