If you ever say anything about politics as a Republican, the first thing I'm doing is typing "quiet piggy" into your profile search and if it comes up empty, I'm discounting everything you say, as you are part of the moral rot of our country and you don't deserve basic respect.

@OftenTopical @FPCGameSoftware I never read the comics myself, but my understanding is the same things more or less happened there first. You can hate the interpretation all you want, some changes made in the show kinda do suck, but I'm pretty sure all of this is still lore accurate.

@FPCGameSoftware Okay fair enough, but you gotta say it.. Are you really shocked? It's Amazon, I'd be surprised if they DIDN'T find a way to make an abortion the guy's fault with woke man-hating nonsense.

@FPCGameSoftware The show was always on a downhill trajectory, but this one fell off a cliff straight into hell.

@aakashgupta The indie revolution we've been seeing over the last decade has been the best thing for gaming/gamers. Give me a 2D/2.5D game that takes 20 hours to complete on a surface level for $20 over a $70 "AAA" game every time. Looking at you @MegaCrit @SupergiantGames @poncle_games

Ratatouille shipped on 13 platforms in 2007, sold nearly 4 million copies in 9 months, and 5 years later its publisher was bankrupt. HD broke the math on the entire genre. In the PS2 era, THQ could ship a Pixar tie-in for under $10M, sell 4M units at $40 retail, and book real profit. The Incredibles, Cars, and Rise of the Underminer moved 25M units combined. THQ pulled $1B in revenue and $68M in profit on exactly this model in fiscal 2007. Then the Xbox 360 and PS3 arrived. HD asset budgets for characters, environments, and animation multiplied fast. A tie-in that used to cost $5-10M now ran into the tens of millions. Review scores stopped forgiving "fine for kids." And the deadline didn't move. Movies ship when movies ship. Warner Bros saw this first. Their in-development The Dark Knight tie-in got killed in 2008. The team pivoted to a Batman game with no movie release date attached. That became Arkham Asylum. Rocksteady built a four-game franchise off that one decision. Every other publisher ran the same math. THQ exited licensed kids games in January 2012 and filed Chapter 11 eleven months later. Disney Interactive closed in 2016. Pixar's last narrative tie-in was Brave in 2012. The last major-studio same-year movie tie-in was Space Jam 2 in 2021, Game Pass only. A 4-million-unit movie tie-in is now a $100M+ investment on a release window you can't slip. Nobody runs that trade.

Why don’t make games like this anymore?

@yeahrightbud @ALegendaryDrops Steam (Valve) doesn't do this automatically or by their own accord, It's completely up to the publishers of said bundle how it works. It can either be "Complete The Set" where you can pay for the remaining games, or "Must Purchase Together" where you have to pay for everything.

@Cal_Talks @CairnLeif @tenyearsnow They never engage with this because in their minds trans men aren't real, they are only capable of thinking about their obsession, trans women. And that's to say nothing of butch women being accused of being trans and accosted, something else they refuse to grapple with.

@CairnLeif @tenyearsnow Well done for missing the point Okay, so a trans man, a biological women, you’ve told to just use the women’s toilet Yet your wife, daughter, family etc come out and say there’s a man in there. You see they look like a man, so kick off Or do they just use the mens?

Trump comes out in support of Transgender people being allowed to use the bathrooms of their choosing. He states Caitlyn Jenner would be allowed to use the woman restrooms in Trump Tower.
Ten Years Ago Today@tenyearsnow

North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper (D) says he will not defend the new state law blocking Transgender people from using the bathrooms of their choosing. Republican Senate Leader Phil Berger says the attorney general should resign if he will not defend the law.

@krassenstein @Jerry__Grey Can you tell me how excluding the point in it where exceptions are made for children under 10 to be allowed in their when following their parents? It's there and you sure are excluding it to lie and make people more upset than they should be

THANKS STUPID REPUBLICANS: In an effort to try and ban transgendered Americans from entering the restroom of the sex they ID with, Missouri has just banned parents of the opposite sex from taking their children into the restrooms with them, meaning that parents who want to protect their children will now not be able to. This new Bill that Passed would mean: a) A young daughter entering a men’s restroom with her father would violate it, because she is not male; b) A young son entering the women's restroom with their mother would be breaking the law

@krassenstein A rare insight into the mind of a typically retarded MAGA. Trump is always correct. Trump says the earth is flat? MAGA will say that he has a special telescope. Trump says bacon is from chicken? MAGA will say there is a special recipe that turns chicken breasts into bacon.

OMFG! RFK Jr: "President Trump has a different way of calculating percentages. If you have a $600 drug and you reduce it to $10, that's a 600% reduction." No, you imbecile. That’s a 98.33% drop. No math besides make-believe math makes it 600%.

REPORTER: I just want to make sure I understand. You're alleging that the Southern Poverty Law Center was paying the leaders of KKK and other groups? BLANCHE: I'm not alleging it. The grand jury returned an indictment that says that
