You know, when people said that the game/story favours Violet over Louis, I was a bit on the fence about whether or not that was true. I didn’t feel true to a certain degree, though at the same time there was a few things that felt a bit off.
…But after finding out about what happens to Louis if you didn’t save him verses what happened to Violet if you didn’t save her, I’m starting to think that maybe the bias against Louis is real after all.
It wouldn’t be the first time something like this has happened in a Telltale game, so I wouldn’t be surprised it’s true.
Okay listen I don’t watch bnha so I couldn’t give less of a fuck about the anime tiddy argument side of this discourse. But I developed very very early while none of my female peers did. I had double D boobs by the time I entered high school and graduated with F cups. I didn’t see any girls irl or in media that looked like me and I felt like a fucking freak of nature. So this argument that no teenage characters should have big bazongas pisses me right off.
Yup. I know. Like, I like that Momo is that she’s just really frank about her body. She isn’t ashamed about it, she doesn’t flaunt it. She’s just busty and that’s it.
I’m also top heavy and I feel your pain. I had B boobs in elementary, Cs in middle school, and Ds in high school. I remember being teased and harassed (by girls!!) for my boobs to the point where I started wearing minimizer bras and loose fitting clothing to divert attention from myself.
These Tumblr people saying that big boobs = pedo aren’t helping at all. So my very existence was pedo to them?
The “purity culture” and call out culture on this website is not about helping people or social justice and equality. Do not even for a second think that it is good or for benefitting people or out of love for individuals or groups .The people that do it are self serving and they arent doing it to help you, they are doing it for their own benefit and for themselves. By “calling someone out” or running them off the site, they hope to be worshipped like some kind of hero and thanked and get attention. They are self righteous assholes that want to be like gods and control people. They just want power and influence over others, they want to be given authority over people and they want influence over others, including you. Dont fall for it, do not participate in it. Never ever harass anyone. Do not help others bully someone. Fact check everything, always ask for sources, but know that info can be easily faked. To be honest just ignore and block people doing this. Its not worth it, you’re not helping anyone and you’re hurting people. End call out and “purity” culture. The internet is never going to be how you want it to be.
saw a comment someone made on a post saying “it’s not possible to read dark fiction and not have that affect your morals, you can’t train your brain NOT to normalize those things!” and i completely agree
as a life-long crime fiction and horror fan, i am an immoral monster. i’ve watched all 456 episodes of law and order and committed a murder after each one. i ate my neighbors after watching hannibal. i started a meth lab after breaking bad. i ruined my high school prom because i watched carrie the night before. in middle school i read stephen king’s it, went down to the sewers with some friends and

Ex-Blizzard Employee Claims That He Left Because of ‘Racial Discrimination, Abuse’
Julian Murillo-Cuellar posted an in-depth statement on TwitLonger (via Twitter), explaining how he suffered from suicidal thoughts and that his health “would never recover during my time at Blizzard.”
Editor’s note: the statement includes comments that some people might find distressing, so reader discretion is advised.
This post if very long, but I just wanted to highlight this part:
I write this today because the Soldier 76 announcement and subsequent tweets I did triggered me. The reason why it triggered me wasn’t the message, but who it was coming from: Blizzard Entertainment. The idea of inclusion, of representation, and “every voice matters” and “think globally” never meant that for me and other people of color I have spoken to. Because up until recently—in the last 2 years—has the community had some representation and initiatives. But are we really represented?
My Mrs. dealt with her own discrimination—that’s her story—and other current and former alumni have confessed similar or worse treatment and nothing being done.
This is my closure. Most people didn’t know why I departed Blizzard Entertainment, but I couldn’t stand idly while others didn’t have the slightest clue why my vitriol towards a company I truly loved and that I poured everything to only be shown the backdoor. I had filed the federal complaint, this is public knowledge, and nobody can tell me I cannot share what happened to me personally!
It was when I lived as a man that my partner hit and belittled me. It was when I lived as a man that I found support from my school’s victim advocate. It was when I lived as a man that a feminist therapist saw me and held space for me with love and care.
The feminism that I know and love and want to be a part of cares deeply about all survivors and creates systems that support all survivors.
I will not exclude male victims from my activism around sexual assault and intimate partner violence. Are you a male survivor who is also a sexist jerk looking to mooch of of the labor of women? I don’t fucking care, you’re a human being, what was done to you was wrong and we are going to take care of you as well as we know how. You deserve that as a human being, regardless of what you have or have not done. We do not audit women’s history of activism; I will not audit yours.
This is the first time you have discussed sexual harassment or sexual violence. I welcome you, come, speak and be heard and be seen. And stay because we have so much work to be do.
