Being okay with genocide as long as you have other interests you don’t wish to risk by taking a stand against it is kinda basically “complicit”, isn’t it?
My gender is my concern, but you may use any pronoun to refer to me

lol cope harder
Naaah, just privatized suicide services. Oh wait, we have those, we call them long term care.
Perversely, while it would be easier for someone with no equipment to maintain in their home, it would be a bigger pain in the ass for a bike shop here to maintain than a typical cargo bike would be.
How is this in any way difficult to grasp?
UW administration hates its students.
I was a total Rust junkie, I was playing 40 hours a week. Then they dropped support for the Linux client and wouldn’t let Proton users do EAC. I had to stop cold turkey. But I fucking did it, because fuck capital-driven operating systems designed to exploit me and my own computer against me.
They probably didn’t want to highlight how vast portions of the base game’s overworld had no content whatsoever and seemed unfinished, so they’re pretending it is part of the auteur schtick.

He used his authority and position in the community to sexually exploit someone who was vulnerable and IN HIS FUCKING CARE BECAUSE THEY WERE A VULNERABLE PERSON. You’re being such an asshole right now, how can you not understand that.
When there is a power dynamic, what might in another context be a simple conflict between two equal people completely changes in nature.
You just fucking said you weren’t making a legal argument, that the term was not defined in the law in the relevant jurisdiction. But now that you realize you’ve crawled out too far on a shaky limb, you’re still turning to “it’s not my opinion, it’s just the law!”
Doesn’t work that way.
That’s exploiting a power dynamic to force themself sexually on an unwilling person. That’s rape. Laws don’t define words, it does not matter what the definition of the crime of the same name is, that woman was raped.
If you are participating in the two party system, you’re either supporting or enabling fascism.

Yea, “accomplished,” right. Or maybe the more lives you ruin, the less you brag about it.
Dang, wrong Captain Blood. There is something significant to be learned from that game. The symbolic language you use to communicate with other characters is a very simple language and it isn’t interesting in itself, but what does interest me is how quickly some players become “fluent” in the language. When characters speak, each word has a glyph that the player can learn to sight read without looking it up, but each word also has a pronunciation, and very quickly some players don’t even need to read the glyphs. The feeling of realizing you can conversationally understand what this weird alien is saying to you in an alien language is pretty wonderful! I think there is a potential here for some very powerful educational tools.
Discovery and wonder? Is THAT what I was supposed to feel while wandering aimlessly through vast areas of no content??
Yes, unless you exclusively give your money to people who aren’t exploitative and abusive, you get fucking exploited and abused, and contribute to others getting exploited and abused. It’s 1 + 1 = 2. You’re making it way more complicated than it needs to be. But yes, it’s something you have to be mindful of ALL the time.
We know that Sony has done or does almost all of those things, or worse. You’re defending your abuser. This is a common pattern that many many people demonstrate. Break out. If you think the abuse is going to stop with “needing to have a burner account,” you’re fucking lying to yourself and you probably know it.
