Even if Tim had zero intention of getting rid of labor organizers at DF, this reads like his managers hand picked these people specifically, then worked backwards to find any "legitimate" reason to bring their names to the chopping block.

I am so tired of the "unions are great at every place but here" rhetoric that so many uncritically thinking people have. Especially after it looks like the loudest pro-union voices were immediately fired the second the company could find the justification.

Definitely thinks the reason the Civil Rights Act was passed because everybody came together after MLK's death, and not because a bunch of racists were scared shitless that black people would rise up and revolt. Try laying down on these issues, and they'll stomp right over you.

Picture of hands changing a smoke alarm battery. The text reads: In brightest day. In blackest night. I shall sound with all my might. When there's a fire or when my battery is dead if you forgot to change it. Which you did. Good morning, it's 3AM. Smoke alarms chirp all night! Check the expiration dates on your smoke alarms. Test the batteries. Oath optional.

I'm only just now reading up on the mess around Fortune's Run. What an absolute nightmare. Since this, the dev dropped the price to the absolute lowest they would allow, and now the game can't be bought. Why does the coolest shit seem to have the most mess? store.steampowered.com/news/app/169...

Oh, and all the dialogue scene look like THIS NIGHTMARE. There's really something none of the "retro inspired" horror games have ever been able to get right, and that's just how even the most mundane shit could seem terrifying in the early days of 3D.

You remember how crowded the Titanic was in the film, at the end? Nah, there's like 3 NPCs here, but you're also hearing people crying out to be saved. Oh, and you're skulking around an empty, clanging, boiler room, with a guy who will shoot you dead. youtu.be/Gm5vIYBzFS0?...

Titanic: Adventure Out of Time starts with you in a creepy, run down apartment building, with vague yelling at you in the background, while air raid sirens go off. 30 seconds late, your apartment is bombed in the literal blitz. There's a vibe here that is so completely unnerving. Same with Myst.

I think what I resent the most is that all of us, especially the women who worked with him, were a part of his rehabilitation (at least image-wise) without us ever getting to choose if that was something we wanted to participate in. He didn't let us or his audience make a choice. How ironic.

Every so often, you kinda wonder why a block happens. Because there's really no reason for blocking somebody for liking a good game.

Just squandering so much fucking good will for an entire community. For all his friends. For everyone who was putting up money to Nebula or Lost in Cult. All fucking down the drain because you couldn't own the terrible shit you've done in the past. Fuck, dude.

Katana "The Bastard" Squirrel @katanasquirrel.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I'm just exhausted, yall. I'm so tired of expecting the bare minimum and not even getting that. As someone who's been navigating the landscape of trying to get a book deal, I always admire people who land those deals, even when I might be a little jealous.

Katana "The Bastard" Squirrel @katanasquirrel.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

It's just exhausting. Experiences, both good and bad, have a value in their telling. Having someone who has seemed, in the past, to understand how systematically white dudes, like me, get handed everything in life, explaining the how of what the school did and how they avoided any real punishment.

Katana "The Bastard" Squirrel @katanasquirrel.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

And I just keep thinking about how actually valuable a voice of someone who DID get no sort of punishment, who COULD tell the situation, who was ABLE to say, "Hey, this was fucked up, I deserved worse, here is the skeleton in my closet." And no, he chose to just keep it buried.

Katana "The Bastard" Squirrel @katanasquirrel.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I live my entire life in the open. I'm an open book, even the shit I'm not proud about. But God damn it, at least I'm never going to let people down when they discover some horrendous shit about me. It's the fucking bare minimum, gang.

Katana "The Bastard" Squirrel @katanasquirrel.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

The bar is in hell, I swear. I get really irritated when people have said that I'm a good person for that. I should not be considered a "good person" for doing the bare fucking minimum.

I've been working for some hours now and I just keep getting fucking irritated by this. BlueSky ain't the place to explain the situation I was in with a ton of nuance. We were drunk. We nearly initiated some stuff. I said, "nah you're drunk, I'm drunk, I'm gonna leave." AND THAT WAS FUCKING IT!

Katana "The Bastard" Squirrel @katanasquirrel.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I think it's also worth saying, uhhh, it's pretty easy not to SA someone. Even when you're drunk! You can just leave! Hit da bricks before anything happens! I'm a guy, and it's so simple to just leave! This one easy trick will ensure you don't assault someone when you or they or both are drunk!

Even beyond the actual morality of covering up your past, in the age of the internet, you will never actually be able to hide it and it will come to light eventually. The longer you wait, the worse it will get for you.

I own up to my past because I can realize the piece of shit I was. I stole from my grandmother when I was a kid. I was turning into a shitty little racist when I was a kid. And every single day since I realized how awful I had acted has been an act of me being accountable to that past in all ways

Aside from my thoughts obviously being with the victim, and I hope that no further identification happens for the sake of her privacy, I've said it before, and I will say it again. Actual remorse involves being upfront about your past BEFORE it gets dug up by others.
