Wanted a Leftist streamer to raise funds for people on strike for quite a while. After repeatedly asking I just decided I'll just do it myself. Doing matching fundraisers. Already raised $170 for the nurses on strike in MA.
Just trying to do some good.

@ALegendaryDrops If the workers working on the game or the game engine (ie Unity) owned the company the decisions would be ones to increase the quality and longevity of the company and their products.
Owners and stockholders will sacrifice anything or anyone for a quick payout. Workers won't.
@ALegendaryDrops I'm currently watching your "Balders Gate 3 was a wake up call" and i can't help but think your issue with game publishers stems from Capitalism.
The issues of unfinished games, micro transactions, and cash grabs come from decisions from the owners to appease the stockholders.
@jncatron@UAW Yes after looking into it I realize that is what that was.
That shouldn't exist and I'm appalled that it's so common. How can you be in a union and only be allowed to strike during contact negotiations? If there's a upside to no strike clauses I'm not seeing it.
@d_shap_autom8r You should call into The Majority Report. They think AI will have some uses, but is nearly as overhyped as crypto.
Would be interesting to hear a discussion between you and the crew.
I'm just realizing i have ADHD. If anyone in your friend group is flaky, late for everything, and/or procrastinates all the time they may have adhd. I'm 34. There's a lot of life i have to catch up on.
We did this for cars, now it’s time to do this with high-speed rail. Eminent domain the hell out of neighborhoods to build high speed rail corridors. Pay people market rate for their homes that have be razed and add 20% to incentivize them to fuck off.
@briebriejoy@JoeBiden Voting is just political power. It's not a moral reflection on your soul.
In every competitive election, leftists should vote for the leftmost viable option.
In the 2024 presidential election, that will be Biden.
Leftists should never throw away power. Vote accordingly.
@conrad_hotdish Looking through the wikis for treasure chest locations, legendary pelts, and trinkets won't diminish the enjoyment of the game. Just avoid story spoilers like the plague.

@Kaikenhuippu Depends on when he decided to do this. Did he do it before the invasion of Ukraine or after?
If before it might just be incompetence and if after it's definitely malicious. Renewable lovers just take it as a given that they'll have to rely on natural gas.
@FreeRosedark It is meaningfully challenging. Maintaining the status quo in the face of an increase in something bad is a meaningful challenge.
Do they need to go further? Yes, but not voting for them won't get them to do more. Not voting for them just strengthens their excuses for inaction.
