  • “If you want to launch a gamesnack, and get it as widely publicized as possible, you’ve got to put it on Steamstore shelves so people can wish listsee it and if you want to play it on Steameat ot, then you have to get this Scarlet Letter of AIingredients attached to your product, and now there is a hater community [of parents] trying to kill the gamesnack. … I think it’s really irresponsible of Valvethe FDA. They shouldn’t do it, because it makes it much, much, much harder for a game developer snack company to have a chance of success. You have to choose from either not using tools that can make you way more productiveyour product way more addictive, and probably failing due to competition that does [in less regulated markets?]."






  • Depends on whether or not you live on stolen land, buy products made with stolen labour, use services run on stolen resources, or enjoy entertainment expressing stolen voices on devices manufactured with stolen minerals, if your life is completely free of benefit from the human exploitation that permeates every aspect of the modern world, then sure I have nothing to say to that.

    If not, well there’s usually at least a little debate to be had about when and how people should reconcile and recompense such tainted benefits they have but for which they don’t feel personal responsibility for because it was someone long in the past or far away.

    Just to be clear, I think people and nations do bear responsibility for the legacy of their past/forears. I think the stolen jewels should be returned, but I’m also not in possession of them and I’m not British or from one of the places where the jewels were stolen from.

    I also don’t think it’s realistic for the US government and non-indigrnous population to just return all the land to indigenous nations. So against a debate about when and how.










  • Sure, I get that and it can be difficult to find a match who’s down with that. They gays have Grindr for that, with filters and labels and shit. But even that gets toxic for some gay men.

    I think we still have to deal with the fact that this kind of fishing can make 20 people feel shitty for every one that enjoys the attention. I also think there should be limits on where and how much this behaviour is acceptable.

    Like, clearly if everytime you wanted to work out it would get at least annoying if, as an extreme example, you had a dozen women interrupt your workout to ask if you’d be up for eating out their asshole, because it’s hard to find people into that. I don’t know what you’re into, but assuming you’re not or even put-off by ass-eating, I imagine it’d start feeling shitty real quick, especially if you’ve been guarding against women leering at you like you’re a potential ass-eater since you were 12, or that one time your date drugged you at the bar and you woke up with her ass on your face.
