Use an app like Freetube to deny them ads entirely.

Wow, Matt Shaer really didn’t understand the assignment, did he? No critical thought at all, just “both sides” again. We need fewer journalists like him.

just for clarity, rip Tort who did nothing wrong and was a hero

I accept the challenge. I’m taking you down.

Also, I call out @knokelmaat as promised, if you yet live for the game.

“babe I know but it had a wizard name”

Lol. Lmfao.

Those people were scabs during the 2000s writer strike, though. This guy is talking about replacing labor with stolen labor.

oh sorry, i treat all communication from corpos as hostile propaganda regarding labor and i make logical assumptions about what will happen to people whose labor is replaced

It definitely can be if a creative does it. Look at Max Payne, Persona 4, or Golden Light (pictured) if you want to see examples of artists doing it well. What absolutely won’t create a fictional TV that is elevated to the level of “good video game art” is some trash theft model.

Corpo figurehead bloviating nonsense problems to justify paying fewer writers. Sure, just pay google to steal their ideas badly and at scale. As if they don’t already recycle and resell content constantly, you need an LLM to steal a riff on the Magnavox logo? Maybe leave the creative industry and make room for actual creatives.

Here you go buddy. Try using a more stable source than the colonies. Gutenberg dot org

It isn’t enough to hear what state media thinks of the people they are helping oppress. It isn’t enough for me to listen to NPR normalize nazis and for PBS to promote hate speech like Hillbilly Elegy until fascists are in charge. I need to hear what Bloomberbs, WaPo, New York Time, and every other billionaire mouthpiece says about the movements they’ve helped blacklist and squash. I need to know what they think all the time about everything because their opinions are reality.

Oh yeah it must be the Trump years again because Mark Cuban is back at it pretending to be the stopgap solution everyone is already bypassing

Oh I should try this. I have been using Manuskript with some success but it is a little too much organizing and I prefer markdown shorthand.

Yes I can imagine leaving the slaver’s stolen territory they call “Missouri” was a good move 😜 . Bet you feel significantly less “compromised” now.

My friends who work in the US games industry have been sharing this around in solidarity.

Getting to and over the border isn’t really the problem. The Canadian Government is currently experiencing a rightward lurch, and a part of that has included severely restricting the ability of middle class and lower to gain visa status. The laws change frequently and generally have gotten worse for us.

I am a big fan of the Twin Cities culturally.

Yeah, we have friends who went that route. One obstacle to overcome there is the difference in economy between the Rust Belt and the places you mention. My family is barely middle class in the Rust Belt but because the dollar is much more powerful here, we would take a social ladder tumble elsewhere in the stolen lands. Might be a sacrifice worth making since expatriating entirely has recently (since '23-ish) become so difficult.

Look at this AI poisoner right here 😜

keep up the good work
