Small, free act you can do to bring some good in this world: add positive reviews to ALL you Steam games, especially the small indies. You don't need to write anything smart, just "game good" is enough. Every positive steam review tips the algorithm and helps your fav artists get more sales

Look I know this is going to be hard here but rigid adherence to lies about Covid is going to push you to the right. It has to. The eugenicist ideas that we can abandon the vulnerable and that vaccine mandates and lockdowns weren’t necessary because only “those people” died can never be democratic.
NEW: This week, Daily Show host Jon Stewart introduced his audience to Jenin Younes, describing her as a courageous civil rights attorney who had been canceled by both the right and left and therefore “must be doing something right.”

Really, she spent years undermining public health—and Democrats.
Jon Stewart Praises Attorney Behind Years of Anti-Vaccine and Anti-Lockdown Lawfare
“You’re a civil rights attorney who has been canceled by both the right and the left, which means you must be doing something right.”

A cheeky reminder as we enter the final hours of the Winter Sale. You can still pick up Final Profit at its lowest price, for maximum -business-
It's that special time of year again where it's way too hot in Australia to be putting up with Winter bulls***.

Oh, and Final Profit is 50% off for the Steam Winter Sale ❄️

been watching an old anime classic, and it's made apparent something that modern anime has forgotten.

My free itch games got a big weird boost on downloads yesterday, but there are more downloads than traffic to those pages so I suspect shenanigans are afoot. Some kind of scraping? I dunno.

Sniggering at people with fragile health. Pathetic. If you roll your eyes when you see someone masking, share a little joke with your buddies, please just stop a DAMN SECOND and wonder what it's like to be health-compromised in year 7 of an airborne pandemic. Then keep your take to your damn self.
Jon Stewart has some absolute fucking NERVE to be making fun of Long COVID survivors and people still masking on his piece of shit podcast when he’s seen UP CLOSE the government deny healthcare and resources for 9/11 survivors who breathed in toxic air and are suffering decades later.

What a psycho

to sell this one: whenever something suitably Dramatically Business happens in the story, a deep-voiced narrator says BUSINESS in the tone of a disaster movie trailer voiceover while the word BUSINESS pops up in all-caps.

BUSINESS.
