look what finally got here

this is the funniest thing I've ever seen on this god awful website

hey writers if you want to make a metaphor for racism, please maybe remember that racism is literally based on nothing. Africans weren’t enslaved en masse because the Robo-Musa threatened to destroy the world, they were enslaved because it was economically rewarding and politically convenient. If at any point your allegory for racism includes “so <oppressed group> did this major catastrophe and” then you have not only missed the point but you are literally reinforcing the ideas that racism have let racism self-perpetuate (that e.g. black people are naturally dangerous and violent and must be contained or begrudgingly accepted by the Nice White People)

If you want to critique symptoms of oppressive political and economic systems, but not the systems that incentivized and defended their existence, then your critique has already failed.

It's not "everyone" acting like it's normal. The majority of people know something's wrong they just don't have the tools to fix it. Maybe a plurality don't know that the problem is capitalism, they blame it on something else, but they're still aware there's a problem. "Everyone" is just too exhausted from working 4 jobs, 50 hours a week to scream into the void in their spare time.

Nothing quite demonstrates the generation divide like how both me and my dad are/were MMORPG players, both of us play lizardfolk monks, but in his case in Everquest the Iksar were legit humanoid lizards whereas mine is an Au Ra kawaii uguu anime girl with a few patches of scales and horns

To add to this, back in his day you had to join a guild to do content and his was a bunch of well-paid engineers and lawyers, who he knew and worked with IRL, whereas I just queue up the roulette and do stuff with randoms and never talk to anybody

Got the old login credentials so I could make the comparison

MMOs are fascinating little beasts because the old ways are largely dead and gone in favor of funny little dopamine drips with random folks you'll likely never interact with ever again. It's honestly kind of a blessing that modern MMOs know folks want their daily/weekly headpats so they can do other things and not be as bogged down from online obligations, but I also can't help but miss what was lost in the process and I wish we were all in a better place to have the kind of time and mental bandwidth needed for the old way of doing things.

People with most mainstream tastes imaginable should not open their mouth on how anti piracy they are btw. Yea no shit you can depend on legal sources to watch Marvel and listen to tswift and Maroon 5. Thank you so much for signing the petition to close that platform that was the only one i could download this 2008 romanian dungeon synth ep from

Cheryl Dunye’s directorial debut, The Watermelon Woman, was out of print between 2000 and 2018. Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace was only available to watch on a pirate channel on YouTube until last year. There is still no way to watch the X-Files spinoff, The Lone Gunmen except to own a dvd box set that has been out of print since 2005. Or to pirate it. It’s on YouTube.

Piracy is incredibly important to keep media that’s weird, or out there or just embarrassing to someone in power, alive. We need piracy and we need to stop being snitches when someone pirates stuff.

piracy is necessary for preservation. look at how Rockstar handled their remasters of Grand Theft Auto. look at what George Lucas did to star wars. Heck, look at what Disney did to star wars. Konami delisted PT to spite one artist they screwed over.

GOG, a subsidiary of CD Projekt Red, not only has to hire a team of lawyers to untangle the legal red tape needed to redistribute older games, but they literally emulation created by pirates to run them.

like, don't steal from your neighbors, but screw corporations for expecting us to play along.
