honestly so many Gamers ™ are so blatantly racist and homophobic that sonicfox not only winning the esports award last night (in a FURSUIT NO LESS), and then proceeding to snatch them all by their grey hairs in his speech was so fucking ballsy and i am honestly so proud of him for it
You’re fucking ridiculous if you think tumblr’s porn/nudity ban actually has to do with child pornography. Literally every other site can effectively moderate this issue and tumblr has been actively closing in further on their anti-NSFW move. Many sex workers and NSFW artists were removed starting last month after the iOS app was removed from the App Store. Look at FOSTA/SESTA, look at the moves throughout the year to push sex workers and NSFW artists away, look at the way Patreon, Paypal, Craigslist, credit card companies, etc. have over-policed this issue and forced sex workers away. This is all so obvious.
Also, explicitly banning and calling out “female-presenting nipples” - note there’s an exception if it’s after giving birth or during breastfeeding because OBVIOUSLY the only way breasts and nipples are okay is when you’re fulfilling your goddamn job of being an incubator and not just posting nipples wilfully or for (gasp) money. Because obviously, when we’re talking about the banning of child pornopraphy we must target “female-presenting nipples” and let everyone know that those are the real problem. Nipples are only okay when they’re “male-presenting” and in the proximity of a newborn that is confirmed yours.
Like c’mon… FOSTA/SESTA has been presented under the guise of fighting human trafficking just like these moves are no different. If they wanted to go after these very real issues then they would and they definitely wouldn’t be (dangerously) conflating the issues. Also why can I still look up violent pro-Nazi, antisemitic imagery but not a goddamn nipple??
BTW read into how Apple has been forcefully pushing for this move & how easily they can go after other NSFW-content websites and force them to comply.
Fun fact: she left Yahoo citing the staggering incompetence of management and development teams. She was brought in to salvage Yahoo and they proceeded to ignore her and belittle her every chance she got.
Sounds pretty classic. Bring in a woman to save the day, ignore her and continue to fuck it up. Then try to lay the blame on her when it fails.
We learnt about this concept in class, it’s called The Glass Precipice, also sometimes known as The Glass Cliff.
Women are often promoted in failing companies or risky CEO positions, that way, when something fails, they receive the blame. In these positions, they are often not listened to, belittled, and ignored, They also face more media attention for their failures than male counterparts.
Capitalism and global sustainability are incongruous with one another, according to a recent paper for the UN's 2019 Global Sustainable Development Report.
This show is the epitome of “I’m an asshole because I’m better than you” and so many people used it to justify their behavior, and it finally addressed the fact that that’s not the case but instead the reality is “I’m an asshole because I’m immature and can’t take care of myself mentally or emotionally” and of course assholes are gonna cry about it. Because, again, they are immature and can’t handle their emotions.
This monologue is a prime example of “Sometimes if someone’s advice pisses you off it’s because they’re right and you know that applies to you.”
