I’m friends of the family of one of the accusers of Bill Cosby. The woman was fearful of coming forward. She did because others were and they needed her support. Her landlord then tried to evict her because news media was coming to her apartment without invitation. He friends called her a money grubbing whore, even though she was set for life and already retired. She lost almost all her connections in the industry.
So for me, I feel like it’s a small price to pay to not contribute to the careers of those who’ve done really bad shit. I’m talking rape, murders, beating people, etc.

I think the whole “if you look deep enough everyone has done sketchy shit” is a way of normalizing terrible people.”
It’s more like, If something truly awful comes out then they likely are 100 times worse.

I’ve seen like 3 different ones of these in a week. I think their product quality is dropping.

Genshin and similar “tiny girls in short dresses”. Honestly they seem grooming and pedo-ish. Especially when they are targeting older dudes. I watched some streamers playing it and it was gross listening to old dudes talk about the characters dresses.

I can get a dev perspective on the topic even though I’m not a game dev. Each game is going to have someone in charge who is balancing stake holder feedback, developer concerns, and vision. Something like photo realism is going to be really hard to get through. It’s expensive and time consuming which will make a lot of stake holders say no. It’s difficult if not impossible for developers to do it with other requirements (like how well it runs on certain PCs, consoles supported, or delivery schedules), and then that has to be the idea from the start (or vision). It’s really the most stringent decision for all three. More than likely the project doesn’t go perfect so it’s the first thing to go.

Samaritan sort of fits this. The bad guy is believed to be the good guy at the beginning. Later we find out that the actual bad guy was perceived as the good guy. The preceived bad guy kept being the bad guy when he wasn’t.

Being physically unable to play a sport is very different than being able to be involved. Give back to the sport and become a coach. Whether it’s little kids or big kids, they need good adults with your skill.

Rotating also allows for new stuff to build up. For example disney hasn’t put anything good out for a few months.

So my friend makes some killer devil eggs. The funny thing is that in 1 devil egg she puts a spicy pepper between the yolk and white. She puts a sign up saying on is truly a devil. People take their chances.

The issue with things like that is they can trigger earth quakes. Pressurized waste water injection wells from fracking water disposals created a series of earthquakes in Oklahoma. Putting new or changing pressures at scale on rocks is going to be a problem

Absolutely. If I commit a serious crime like rape or murder I want you to assume that it’s just the one I got caught with. You don’t just one day decide you’re going to rape someone. You build up to that. Guys like Cosby and Spacey were doing things to people for years and years before 1 person stood up. I’m sure some of there worst actions are still hidden.
I don’t get why people think they are guaranteed some sort of due process when it comes to public opinion.
