Having only played the 3DS game, it’s genuinely shocking it was on a Nintendo system. Beyond super edgy violence and absurdly grime endings, there were a few eyebrow raising moments of “ok, didn’t… need… that.”

At any rate, I call bullshit on these “current platform guidelines”

Society should provide for and take of the first two levels of the hierarchy of needs. No one should have to worry about those things and be given the freedom to strive towards self-actualization.

It isn't "aesthetically" liberal - the notion that our country can make substantial and sustainable progress without making radical changes that clearly are not on the table at this point is liberal to its core
I realize that all the "we are going to win" inspiration posting codes as aesthetically liberal (being left is being unimpressed) and invites the responses you'd guess from a certain genre of more radical than thou poster but still surprised at the particular condescension strategies people go for

If State Farm is truly interested in being a good neighbor, it should be transparent and let the numbers speak for themselves.

Other insurance companies work with us on this, but State Farm has refused.

Without the data, homeowners have no assurance.

I don't ever want to hear "oh but remakes aren't replacements you can still play the originals!" when this is how Capcom felt about the original RE games before it took serious convincing from GOG to bring them back.

Konami likely feels the same about SH2 and the audience doesn't care.
Capcom should die. Give all their IPs to less stupid people.

Literally if the owners stopped enshittifying this app, and stopped banning Palestinians for existing, the actual infrastructure of this place is pretty sound. Bluesky in concept is fantastic. It is unfortunate the owners have come down with severe posters' madness.
The sad thing about the owners' contempt towards the userbase is that Bluesky is genuinely a far better Twitter alternative, from a user experience the lack of an algorithm that only seemed to push conflict and suppress people I was following is a staggering difference. You got a good thing here!

First they shut down the government. Then they tampered with federal workers’ emails to shift the blame. This is corruption in broad daylight.
