Stop. They just don't get it.

I mean it's easier to stack him since he's in the public culture. I just disagree he's a substantial cog. There are far larger and critical institutions that reinforce the system and do far for damage to society. Talking as if Mr. Beast has any actual influence or powerful is laughable.

I know what you're saying, I'm just confused why this anger is being directed at Mr. Beast of all people. I'm saying he's doing more for people than most ever will. Maybe he should use his platform for political activism and lobbying, I don't know. I mean, If he did how far could he go with that when what he's doing is working well and he is able to help real people without redtape and bureaucracy. Yes he's playing the capitalist system to help people, but it's working and he is able to do it because he makes a good show of it. Would he be able to do the same if he dedicated himself to politics? I don't know.

I'm a creative and a designer myself. My philosophy is that at the end of the day the products should be judged by its result. It's unfortunate because consumers often do not truly appreciate the amount of blood and trouble that goes into works when creatives feel they deserve a break sometimes. Again, at the end of the day, providing explanations why the game is shit is not going to make the game less shit.

What I don't understand about people who say things like there are alternatives and point to open source software. Like I understand that most people have used nothing but Adobe since forever, but have you even tried using alternatives for actual work? It's a frustrating experience.

What I don't get about all the criticism lobbied at The Game Awards is that other gaming award shows do exist, and have existed, but people don't fucking watch them and then they criticize TGA for doing what other awards shows didn't: get millions to actually watch it.

It's a PWA, which basically means it's just a website. If you're using Firefox on mobile opening up the website won't ask you to install it.

I don't but I am aware that it can be used to identify you, as well as from other people if they give open access to their contacts. They only have my email.

Also romanticized.... Mental illnesses...

Also it's funny to hear about unfairness in media or Hollywood. Such as women are expected to be beautiful and not be over 30. There's a lot you can say about it, but something about it makes me feel it's deeply hypocritical.
