Yeah, but there's a difference between wasting time talking about plastic bags and shopping carts in the politics thread and wasting time talking about whether someone's post meets some imaginary criteria for the umpteenth time. Wasting time should be fun, not obnoxious.
Nobody has to grab pitchforks but it’s worth knowing that there are people making entertainment for us that don’t understand why trigger warnings are needed and what the actual intent is. Not everyone is lucky enough to be able to just throw something on without worrying about their trauma. So yeah the people presenting this stuff not being informed or not caring is an issue to at least bring up imo. We can’t do anything directly about it, just like we can’t do anything directly about anything that gets posted in here. But at least we’re informed.
Brittany Mahomes owning a women’s soccer team with those views is particularly gross. If she wants “to keep men out of women sports” she can let us know when her husband sells his shares
I wouldn’t give that studio too much credit for doing anything fyi. They’re still in production of their first game and could’ve just been desperate to get the actors back to finish the game. They’re also owned by Tencent. The actual major studios though? Fuck them.
That dude makes it so fucking hard to believe him or take him seriously. I don’t doubt Disney is probably into some shady shit, but I don’t think the truth, in this case, will be favorable to him.
this whole Linkin Park business has gotten me to rethink my stance on Tom Cruise ...and I think I'm gonna keep my Mission impossible blurays and continue watching the franchise I probably won't listen to the new album with Emily tho I think there's some cognitive dissonance and double standard going on here but at least i'm self aware about it? idk as a consumer i can't really quantify whose content i choose to engage with. it's just a gut feeling, i either feel too gross about it or i don't. that shit with Jonathan Majors happened and I still begrudgingly watched Loki season two, but I also took Lovecraft Country off my shelf, the same way I did every Johnny Depp movie I had when the Amber Heard trial went down.
I feel this. I think we all have our lines we won't cross and all we can do is live up to our own personal standards. There's media I consume that other people probably wouldn't give the time of day, but I also don't advertise it out of respect, and I try to be careful who I give money to. I honestly don't know what I'm going to end up on here. I will probably still listen to the album at least once, but beyond that, nothing, unless something is seriously done to change things.
