- Comment on Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, a JRPG, just got released on Steam—and this is a big deal because this game is to PC what Final Fantasy VII was to PlayStation. 5 days ago:
Oh boy I’m glad you said that because I didn’t want to sound like an idiot. I’m 40yo and I have no idea who the VU are, nor does comparing them to the Beatles make me excited to look them up.
- Comment on 9 months after its 1.0 launch flopped, an indie dev just learned that Steam never emailed the 130,000 people who wishlisted its game 5 days ago:
This is going to sound weird but I never actually get Steam emails, outside of receipts. Maybe I disabled them years ago. And I wishlist/follow hundreds of games.
Uncertain if I’m a unique edge case who hates email clutter or not.
- Comment on The man show was a left wing attack on incels. 5 days ago:
Ugh Adam Carolla. That guy was against giving kids free lunches.
It was the first time I saw someone so loudly against feeding kids.

- Comment on Borderlands 4 boss tells players "please get a refund from Steam if you aren't happy" as Randy Pitchford continues his very public crashout over the FPS's performance woes 1 week ago:
Pretty much. Can’t remember what he did that ticked me off like 8 years ago.
I stopped buying and surprise surprise, got everything after Borderland 2 for literally free or like $2-3 at some point.

- Comment on Anon asks out a friend 1 week ago:
I honestly think it’s embarrassing and childish to get upset at somebody and immediately go, “Yeah well you fucked so many men!”

That’s how you know its full of incel energy.

Well technically OP is now 30 so they’re less of a teenage figuring things out, and sad person.

That’s gonna suck when they realized it was coming from inside the house.
Far Right folks, good luck. Your own people will Charlie Kirk you.
- Comment on Proton Mail Suspended Journalist Accounts at Request of Cybersecurity Agency 1 week ago:
In a response to the backlash, Proton’s official account stated that the company did not intentionally block journalists’ accounts and suggested that the situation had been “blown out of proportion.” However, the lack of clarity surrounding the decision-making process has left many, including the affected journalists, seeking answers. Proton’s founder, Andy Yen, later announced that the accounts had been reinstated but did not clarify the reasons behind the initial suspensions or the subsequent reinstatement.

So did Proton mail act on their own, or did they get a gun to their head to disable? Because Proton continues to act holier than thou about privacy and only caving if there’s a lot of evidence. But here is ANOTHER example of hypocrisy.

- Comment on McDonald's criticizes US restaurant industry for uneven wage policies 2 weeks ago:
Honestly Im for it.
I worked as a bus boy, trying to become a server in college. Much of my job was cleaning up and bringing out food, doing whatever the server was doing except taking orders. Never did get to work as a server.
And I got paid min wage with the expectations that I get tipped out by servers. And often, they’d get $500 a night and hand me a $5.
- Comment on McDonald's criticizes US restaurant industry for uneven wage policies 2 weeks ago:
Why?
They’re not wrong. A server make $2 an hour, with the idea of being offset by tips to meet minimum wage.
- Comment on McDonald's criticizes US restaurant industry for uneven wage policies 2 weeks ago:
$15 an hour average in my state. Then again, the minimum wage is $14.
- Comment on McDonald's criticizes US restaurant industry for uneven wage policies 2 weeks ago:
Wild. To think, McDonald’s CEO raging at how messed up the tipping industry is.

They literally pointed it out in the movie.
- Comment on Teddybears - Punkrocker 5 weeks ago:
I dislike political messaging in media even when I agree with the message, because I’m going to said media to escape reality.
What movies do you like that aren’t political? I’m curious.
