I'm being a tad facetious with how I'm saying this, but I really believe it. Not that games need to be arbitrarily hard, but friction and challenge, mechanics & design, *are* the text of the medium. Treating it as ancillary to "the story" fatally undercuts the medium & its possibilities.

“At least people/women are reading” READING WHAT!? Sub Hop on Pop prose??? Fucking god.
fanfiction and its consequences etc. etc.
Look at my fascist text dawg it posits that young violent criminals are more deserving of a second chance than the median American.
Reread TDKR this weekend. I really don’t know how people can call this book fascist, especially given how Batman ends up treating the mutants. Feels like a lot of it boils down to “reactionary is when you are pissed off”
Mass banning every single Palestinian and deeming those who post anything but the most saccharine crap as “rude” was one of the bad seeds for this hellhole, alongside their exclusive “invite era” being a registered sex offender convention
Honestly I’m thinking about just deleting my account here, this site is one of the most evil sites I’ve ever been on in my entire existence on the internet
I remember learning about the Hays Code in film school and how it made it so that any amoral protagonist had to meet karmic justice by the end of the film and going “wow, that’s really silly” and then once a week I log online and see people argue that we need stuff like that now or it’s problematic
My dad asked if he could go back so he could die with the rest of his family. Hearing that just made me incredibly sad. Then I turn on the news and see the media platforming these lunatics nonstop, and it fills me with rage.
They should put him back in the cockpit, he’s almost an ace
For context, this is like carpet bombing New York City.
I want you all to sit with that. Yet again... the United States shows it's ugly face to the world.

I understand none of us are immune to propaganda and we should be checking our biases with increased frequency. However we just got perhaps the best behind the scenes look in human history at how right wing billionaire pipelining works, and it was the exact opposite of this, so idk man
Seeing that Tsukihime Trial floppy smashed is actually making me mad. Hope it doesn't make its way to reddit, I know some cunt will play devil's advocate saying it's Diddy or something.
