Yes, it’s a shame fascists are so hell bent on doing that to us. But perhaps if they experience consequences, they may elect to do literally anything else with their life than harass queer people.
But I know I’m being too optimistic.
Some fascists would rather die than be better human beings… So it is only generous to oblige them.
It’s nice not being so full of shit, right?
Japan…
i just really freaking love public transportation infrastructure
i want to ride ALL THE TRAINS
It’s only a matter of time for me…
Then again, the account I left behind says “user has deleted” instead of “user was banned” so…
Here’s how I think a GoG subscription might work out:
The money goes into a balance on your account. It just accumulates store credit.
You might raise the question of “why would they want to do that”, to which I say:
it’s guaranteed income for them and they make a profit by selling games ANYWAY.
The fact that they get this income consistently is good for their books.
You might also raise the question of “why would anyone want to participate in that”, to which I put to you this:
I want to give myself a “gaming allowance” of a little bit each month but saving is hard. If I am paying GoG a monthly subscription, though, and I accumulate a balance of credit, I can get games without it impacting my budget outside of what I’ve exactly allotted.
What else do I get? The warm fuzzy feeling of supporting GoG. Which I’d definitely do anyway. Honestly, letting me turn my subscription into store credit is a huge boon. I don’t NEED any perks beyond that.
Oh here’s something GoG could maybe do, actually:
an extremely UNOBTRUSIVE cloud storage drive that they say is for Save Syncing (and automates this if you’re running the galaxy app) but that they’ll let you store any arbitrary files in it as long as what’s in it fits within the space they’ve designated for me… and furthermore if this space got bigger the more store credit I have built up, that’d be the tits too.
OH OH OH I thought of two other perks!
What if the cloud storage suggestion also automatically “stored” “copies” (in your “personal” cloud storage box) offline installers for games you’ve purchased so that you can still download them EVEN IF they get “delisted” for sale?
What if your subscription gave you sliiiightly more than the cash value in store credit? Like only 10% bonus.
If I am paying $5.00 per month, they put $5.50 store credit in my balance each month.

Hey I started using Thunder on my android devices and holy cow this is SLICK! I LOVE IT! Thank you for the recommendation!
It sure would be nice if the world would stop denying this new Holocaust.
And it’s happening again, right now, as we speak.
Knowledge is being set ablaze by the powers-that-be and nobody is stepping up to meaningfully prevent it from all being destroyed.
You say this as though the Democrats are trying to win.
They are not trying to win.
They’ve made an incredible cash cow grift out of losing elections.
They scare billions of dollars in political donations out of people, and where does that money go?
It’s gone.
“Consultancy” contracts. “Advertising”. Gold-plated toilet seats by any other name.
Of COURSE they have no interest in winning elections. Any candidate who would win on their ticket is a threat to the congame.
I freaking love my town’s municipal fiber! It’s GLORIOUSLY FAST and rock stable, haven’t had ONE outage in the past 3 years. Cheaper than the coaxial cable I used to have through spectrum (previously called themselves charter). Coaxial cable is a scam nowadays.
Maybe lean extra hard on the coastal elite big media propaganda. You can’t outsmart a moron, maybe out stupid them instead.
Wow so it’s not even a NEW plane but shitty high maintenance sloppy seconds.

That was easy. Unlike Ben Affleck, I’ll never have to hear about YOU ever again.
Boy you fuckers sure are lining up for the hate train. Fuck you too then.
I resent rich people in general but I fucking hate this feckless buffoon especially. Professionally, he had a hand in ruining an iteration of Batman. Personally, he doesn’t understand the difference between race and religion when it comes to people who practice Islam and that’s both reductive and patronizing. Fuck Ben Affleck.
You’re right, absolutely spot on, about several things but ONE IN PARTICULAR is this:
A human being helping a customer is, quite literally, an act of circumvention. Customer service EXISTS, SPECIFICALLY, for scenarios that require exceptions and skilled, knowledgeable internal maneuvering within, between, and around the cold mechanisms of machinery and policy. We tend to think of, say, purchasing items at a store as standard operation, for instance. But really, from the perspective of the business, its objective is to RESTRICT access to goods and services. The cashier manages exceptions to this goal. If the company has its way, it would take your money while relinquishing NOTHING.
