We're suppressed like crazy on X. Don't mind being out of the box, obviously, but it's so frustrating being thwarted from natural outreach allies there. Will work with you where we can Taylor! gbamfs@gmail.com - would love to work with you!
First will come the gagging and restriction, followed by total identification/exposure, and finally, AI will be required, as they already trying to do for ID on hardware sales CO SB Bill 26-051 Age Attestation on Computing Devices. Because a 'Governed' Device is a 'Safe' device. For government.
I hate to tell you this (Jdawg speaking on his own spec-fic, but teleologically-indicated potential outcome here,) but it may well be that at least one major-nation state sees in AI the potential to have unlimited propagandist-spies.

Stop all the downloadin'
Looking great!
This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence π₯
You have outstanding taste to marathon such a fine series, Joe! Love to see the notes from you on it! -J
The character and media type limitations of this platform do cause real headaches trying to share our content here. Hope it gets better. It can't all be about X, can it?
We're pretty niche. You gotta talk gaming, gaming culture, gaming market and gamer values if you want to come on π
Sometimes I'd love to go back to being a kid again. Even for a day.
I'd wake up, get cereal, watch cartoons, and play video games without a care.
No internet, no social media, just a little peace. Life wasn't perfect, but it didn't need to be.
Despite all my problems, those moments felt... calm.π«

There are too many who will think only of their non-gaming, non-commercial ideals and willingly savage and destroy a non-conforming merchant. They provide a tremendously valuable service. This whole train of events is sad, unnecessary/unfortunate for gamers & industry. We need payment alternatives.
MAKE ELECTRONIC ASSISTANTS DUMB AGAIN!!!

He has a slightly derpy expression. There's a piece of cardboard on his head. Someone has drawn the golden ratio spiral over him and it fits really, really well
my god he's perfect
There is it's barely time to celebrate the artistic and gamer victory of the Stop Killing Games campaign before we confront global censorship and government interference in gaming, starting with Visa and Mastercard's moves against markets. Now, this.
