Making Silly Sounds Doesn’t Always Have To Serve A Purpose And Is Sometimes Done Purely For Whimsy’s

re: tiktok ban, george orwell‘s 1984

There's an EU initiative going on right now that essentially boils down to wanting to force videogame publishers with paid games and/or games with paid elements such as DLC, expansions and microtransactions to leave said games in a playable state after they end support, or in simpler terms, make them stop killing games.

A "playable state" would be something like an offline mode for previously always online titles, or the ability for people to host their own servers where reasonably possible just to name some examples.

I don't think I need to tell anyone that having something you paid for being taken from you is bad, which is a thing that routinely happens with live service and other always online games with a notable recent example being The Crew which is now permanently unplayable.

Any EU citizen is eligible to sign the initiative, but only once and if you mess up that's it. You can find it here. (https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2024/000007_en)

Even if you're not European or you signed it already, you can share this initiative with anyone who is, even if they don't care about videogames specifically because this needs a million signatures and there is different thresholds that need to be met for each EU country for their votes to even count and could also be a precedent for other similar practices like when Sony removed a bunch of Discovery TV content people paid for.

Just an experiment. Reblog if you actually give a fuck about male victims of domestic violence and rape.

Of fucking course

What sick bastard doesn’t

not my usual stuff but remember:

if/when tiktok comes back,

it is not the same place. it is not the same. and most importantly do NOT under any circumstances forget that The Tangerine was the one who wanted it banned in the first place and he is no savior, he, like everyone else in government, is doing what benefits him.

DO NOT FORGET THIS.

pick up the patterns, look at history.

Tim: I like how "not my circus, not my monkeys" implies that you DO have a circus, perhaps even with monkeys, but this isn't it.

Dick: I do.

I can’t stand people that don’t let me speak hyperbolically. If I can’t respond to a minor inconvenience that someone should get shot in the fucking head for it then what’s the point of it all.

i have been a fan of miraculous since they were mainly writing fanfiction on fanfiction.net and wattpad. i was a fan since it was premiering on nickelodeon. i truly am an og, so this gives me the right to tell yall that marichat was always the ideal ship out of the four.

I also saw an IT person say that the whole “going dark” is actually to facilitate all the servers being changed to the Meta servers in America. I didn’t download that video before the pop up appearing unfortunately

I'm bored. Reblog this post and I'll randomly ship you with someone else who also reblogged it.
