Fresh out of the oven! There’s an entire world of unlicensed Gundam games that have stayed exclusive to Japan. A whole treasure trove waiting for those willing to give it a shot. cmdcph.substack.com/p/the-world-of…
Speaking of OFCOM, this attempt to downplay the UK’s hijinks for the chattering classes definitely did NOT age well. “For the children” my ass. politico.eu/article/uk-onl…
It always comes back to you. OFCOM is allowed to act without warning and change rules when they want essentially. Also look at the gaslighting by the bbc.
Heinlein was right. Society begins to fall into bad practice when parents don't have the wherewithal to housebreak their own children. You're not protecting anyone, you're collectively failing to accept responsibility for your own and relying on the government to nanny for you.
Well done to everyone who campaigned to ensure age verification for pornography was in the Online Safety Act! Today it comes into force and while no doubt there will be some who get around it, it means young kids in particular won’t be stumbling on violent and harmful porn.
Every company needs to stand up to every government and payment processor. Payment processors make money by…processing payments. So if everyone had some patience, in a perfect world, this would be solved in 24 hours thanks to muh corpo greed. But mass suing might work. A…
I honestly think we should put on a class action lawsuit and all sue the government over the age ban. Adults having to use ID to use communication tools is utterly unacceptable. If Google sees a case, there must be a case.
Healthy reminder that Charlalah being imperfect doesn't mean they don't love each other. Gundam is a LOT about flawed couple dynamics. Also, many people are applying modern-western-civilian society standards to their relationship and miss putting some context.
That's...very convenient following the UK's Online Safety Act. Turns out Pravin Lal was right.
I’ll probably be arrested for this… The Home Office is building an elite social media police squad to monitor your posts for “anti-migrant sentiment” — while asylum hotels fill, protests grow, and immigration hits record highs. If you dare criticise the chaos? Expect a knock…
Hello Frankfurt Main! I finally made my trip to Europe! Now in Germany. I stay in Frankfurt Main for few days before DrachenFest - one of my main headed during the trip. No specific planned viewpoint, just wandering around and enjoy my holiday here. I also enjoy hunting every…
Quick update on what is at hand. This affects all of us. It might be just the 'UK' and Europeans at this moment- but it will get worse. It happened before it will happen again. You should NEVER be asked to show your ID or scan your face to access online spaces or content. They…
Very familiar, just like Sweet Baby. Looks like Collective Shout is starting to realise they angered way too many people with practically zero real allies online. Cause damage to everyone and everything, getting even Japan’s govt’s attention, hide away after the fallout. Class
Thanks @Lavistro84 and company for having me earlier! It was definitely an enjoyable and informative ride! Definitely worth checking out once the panel's online!

Pretty sure they mean The Red Spectacles?
EXCLUSIVE: A TV series adaptation of the "Wolfenstein" video games is in development at Amazon MGM Studios. The (incredible) official longline for the series states: “The story of killing Nazis is evergreen.” wp.me/pc8uak-1lG6ed
CollectiveShoutの問題や、Visa,Masterのクレカ規制などについて発信を続けているSavvyさんがまとめたVisa&Mastercardによる検閲の歴史がツリーに。特にクレカ規制については日本国内の情報はかなり限られているから、アメリカの方から見た情報は貴重です。
🧵🧵🧵This is my attempt to map Visa and Mastercard Censorship. This is in regards to @CollectiveShout taking ownership of pushing them, but this timeline shows activity back to 2016 for @visa and @mastercard This thread will break down segments, and provide close ups.…
