Deleted my account and removed the app from my phone.

Did this guy not hear about the small businesses and independent sources about genocide?

And at the end of the day what will those marches and protests have accomplished in a society with the attention span of a gnat? All that matters imo is voting. That's the biggest tangible difference we can make in our current climate — when it's time to vote, you fucking vote. Go ahead and do all your organizing and yell into the void as nothing gets accomplished.

I used to be that type btw… into protests and organizing and all that, but then I got older and more pragmatic and began to understand the world for what it is.

This is what's so valuable that Nepenthe is willing to reconsider Trump (again).  This good stuff in in the thread.  Not this tweet. 

[benji]

Is it the thanking Trump for intervening in the ban the kowtowing? TikTok should have been like "fuck you Trump, we're shutting down anyway!"

SHARK BITE!!! BOOOM!!!

Still waiting for Benji's book report on Xi Jinping: The Governance of China (English Version).

“I’ve also bought copies of this book for my colleagues,” Zuckerberg was quoted as saying by a Chinese news website. “I want them to understand socialism with Chinese characteristics.”

Yet ResetERA.com's "progressives" reject Meta. Sounds about white.

Lots of replies talking about deleting their accounts, this is why the left needs to be organizing!!!

Since the ZUCK hands it out maybe I'll read it.

Anyone I see on TikTok from this day on is someone who has made clear they don't care about hanging out at a Nazi bar.

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

I better not see any Era moderation linking Tiktok ever again. Same with X. 

If you can be banned for voting third party on Era, moderation should be held accountable for the content they post is from.

In the deep centre of my being resides the very core that is fundamentally not a subject of neoliberalism but instead survives it, and that core is where dreams come from, and from where the tentacles of hope and self realization are born. And in this urban life, the exercise is to build roads outward from that truth of myself into the world. That gave me the strength to define my future when i most needed to and the strength to see the material world in front of me with clear eyes.

Guess who brings receipts the devs are chuds

https://www.resetera.com/threads/code-violet-devs-teamkill-media-said-there-wont-be-a-pc-version-of-the-game-because-they-dont-want-people-modding-vulgar-versions-of-characters.1086267/page-2#post-134539089

Reading their Twitter account is certainly something. They re-tweeted someone saying they were convinced by the Kingmaker trailer to wishlist the game (whoops). They re-tweeted a bot account that was showing them support. They're re-tweeting someone who says they hate modding because they don't want to see Shrek modded into games.

... aaaaand they've got a bunch of tweets saying stuff along the lines "don't worry, people, no DEI or SBI in our game!"

Yeah, I think I'm okay with ignoring their game

Yeah lol 

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

Maybe don't sexualize female characters? I'd think a progressive forum like Era would understand that.

Guess I was wrong.

It's almost as if Tiktok has experience in sucking up to a dear leader 

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

But she supported Kamala? I guess Genocide is AOK in AOC world.

The Rizzler wasn't in their most recent youtube video... I hope he's doing okay.

Every time you guys post these cunts I sincerely wish you'll get hit by a bus.

Don't tell me he's fuckin OnlyIcedCoffee

Edit: Fixed

No, no, he's some far lesser tier orbiter. He went by Eden even back then. Here's some old video featuring him:


He's the circled one in this:


He deleted his LinkedIn since I last posted it but here's what it said:

Teaching Assistant
Trevose Day School
Aug 2016 - Present · 8 yrs 1 mo
Trevose PA
I assist with teaching children animation during the summer at the Trevose Day School. I assist with teaching children animation during the summer at the Trevose Day School.

Game Tester
VMC
Mar 2015 - Present · 9 yrs 6 mos
Greater Philadelphia Area
I and several other teams in the US do game testing for the VMC company. Projects usually involve play sessions of unreleased projects with intensive feedback to ensure a better release.

The VMC testing is done from home and the company hasn't done anything since 2018: https://www.mobygames.com/company/12685/vmc-game-labs/

He had some in-person QA briefly before on his stuff, but I obviously can't check who that was with now.

This is what Encylopedia Dramatica used to say about him:

Eden's Cross aka UmbranAlchemist is a white knight of the worst kind, defending Phil's every mouth diarrhea, up to and including Phil whining about his parents not buying him the first print of a toy... and yes, he argued about that shit in his thirties. Of course, everything that Eden seemed to have taken out of it was that parents aren't supposed to refuse you your wishes and blow sugar up your ass instead.

He gets a special mention because even Phil almighty in all his narcissism and need for attention told him to shut up. Great job there, buddy.

Another point of interest: He brags about his enrollment in animation school but spends 8 hours a day white knighting Phil and picking fights with weeaboos. Say hello to the next Tom Preston!

Benji putting Messi to shame with his memos of memos.

That VMC testing gig is such a joke to list. Everyone could sign up for that, even I did a test for some game once and because it was so shitty and the timelines never matched mine, I never attended another one. They still asked me for years to test new games even though I never replied or updated my hardware info.

r/actuallesbians
"I'm trans"

HUH? 

All of lesbian Reddit is like that. There were some lifeboats after the major ones got taken over (I want to say that r/actuallesbians was one of them, hence the name), but they all got infiltrated themselves or were in the group that was purged in like 2020.

It’s literally this:

Repeatedly.

[kaleidoscopium]

What a dumb past 48hrs. Already connected with people I know in the US via other means bc of the ban so not that much more effort to leave. Isn't like Xiaohongshu hasn't taken over my time anyway.

Curious what they'll do long-term though, isn't it still gone from the app stores in the US?
