Is there at least a best adult video game category or are they pretending there aren't 8000+ of those made every year

Feels like it should be bigger news that a journalist known for being loud about her investigations into banks/payment processors appears to be getting financially stonewalled by the entire industry unaminously right now.
The full count as of today:
YouTube suspended
Twitch banned 3x
Patreon suspended (temporary)
Patreon 3x audio flags (one false posi)
Ko-fi suspended (indefinite?)
Buy Me a Coffee suspended
Vice reporting censored
Pornhub censored 3x times
Fansly censored 1x

Is it really a conspiracy to say Ana is being explicitly flagged by finance bros when she's now been banned (or censored) from Twitch, Patreon, Buy Me A Coffee, Ko-Fi, and *PornHub*??

thinking again about how kaoru amagami sets impossible beauty standards for good hair, both imaginary and otherwise
i mean, just look at it, gamers
i have basically her hair irl and even i feel shame that my genes can't produce such a masterpiece
how could a dating sim ever do this to us 😔

the "AI is gonna be used in every game so what're you gonna do then if you're anti-AI" people are so fascinating to me
there are so many videogames that have come out man, I could never buy another new game again and between my steam library backlog and GOG and emulation I'd still be set for life

once again i have allowed myself to fall into the "what could possibly go wrong by adding significant more new cards to my anki deck than normal for several weeks straight" trap. i look forward to once again not learning my lesson and doing this all over again in a couple months

happy amagami day, everyone! if you start a play through today you can sync the in-game calendar up with the real life calendar
a new eng patch version for the vita version released recently that no longer adds a bunch of disc swaps, so if you can't read japanese there's never been a better time!

you can't just say you don't like a game anymore, you gotta say "it doesn't respect your time"

That demo disc is cool, if only for the fact that they made an entire production out of it. They put someone in an Ape Escape costume and traveled around the USA. I would love to know who these people are and how they were approached to participate in this nonsense.

I wrote more words about how it feels to be a translator watching the games press report on AI and labor, coming from a field that's fought these battles for decades. It may look like I'm beating up on one outlet, but it's not about them; I've been trying to write this for me and my peers all year.

whenever i see a set of words edited in to the tmnt logo i play them along to a song in my head that i'm about 80% sure is actually from a different show, but that just happens to fit the rhythm and i kind of hope i never confirm one way or the other if it's the right song or not, i like not knowing

I was poking through the English translation after finishing too, and it has a cute mistake that made me smile. The main character asks the villain whether they're the 黒幕 (literally "black curtain", but means someone pulling the strings), and the translation seemed to think it was a name.
