Curious about the adult figures because I’d guess they are lower but obviously can’t say anything for sure.

You’ll get cheffed up and put in a spliff if you set foot in central London

Game dev is predatory because people can and will do it for free. Many “dream jobs” have this issue.

It was like 5 years ago but I heard a family friend working there was making 27k as a mid level dev.

It’s a business: They want to avoid controversy and this musician is controversial.

Sucks, because he is probably right or at least not wrong in his views, but this is the society we’ve all built together.

Maybe they are just a company… Idk how people even developed a parasocial relationship with it

Admittedly it is a pretty funny nickname but personally I find it amusing because he’s so non-threatening

Pretty safe to say he’s over-hated. Even like colleagues of mine whom I suspect do not follow politics closely refer to him as things like “Kier Stalin”.

Maybe I’m old fashioned but a PM is essentially an admin role – why do we expect that they be inspirational too.

This seems like a problem that will self-correct. The way Schrier has phrased the headline makes it sound like the industry is a monolith with a comitee leading it.

To be fair, she could have kept quiet about this and avoided another round of people calling her names online, which would have been the easier path. Most people in this thread might know “Robinson” is dodgy but we’re not the target audience.

Totally agree with you. I think society/politics has become polarised to the extent that we’ve all grown colder towards perceived “enemies”; at the same time people shouldn’t be victim blamed for abuse, no matter how dumb they are.

Additionally, what we perceive as “dumb” can sometimes be other people struggling with mental illness or disability.

I went to school with Chris Cash. His dad was my family GP and he was my cousin’s first kiss.

His HS yearbook has “most likely to end up in jail” on his entry.

These people should be hung, drawn and quartered

I hope they don’t nerf anything else. I was grinding through Sister Sledge (or whatever the boss is called) and I’d nearly done it. Then patch 1 came out and I did it first time. I feel robbed of the achievement.

Tweaking the rosary economy is ok however there is a clear lore reason why it is less generous initially.

I am so sick of US politics being transposed into the UK

It wasn’t really framed as a learning experience when he intially brought it up. For some reason he thought it would be an appropriate story to tell to sell his “hard man” credentials as promo for an upcoming action movie role.

Neeson was judged not to have met the threshold for inciting violence despite describing in detail how he planned and attempted to carry out a racially motivated attack. In my opinion that’s a more specific incitement to violence than the Linehan tweet because it is specific and credible.

Yes, he throw in a few comments about how he regrets it and won’t do it again but we’re talking about the contents of a statement as opposed to the context.* I’m not convinced either situations should be considered incitement to violence but the Neeson one seems closer to satisfying the criteria for police intervention.

*The law would consider the statements in isolation, like I can’t go on a misogynistic/homophobic/racist rant and then add “just kidding” at the end to escape any repercussions.

Hope his hand was ok afterwards!
