Ah that's where you're confused. We'll still have games. They just will no longer be subverted and used as a vehicle for weird identity obsessed leftists to do their not so thinly veiled political activism. And boy, it's going to be fucking glorious when that day comes. Remember: chuds were responsible for the success and inception of nearly every single western IP that you left-wing retards later took over and ruined. Halo, Gears, Warcraft, Call of Duty, Assassin's Creed, Minecraft, Starcraft, Elder Scrolls, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, The Witcher, Baldur's Gate, Command & Conquer, Diablo, KOTOR, Runescape, Borderlands, Half-Life, Counter-Strike, Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption, Batman Arkham, Deus Ex, Uncharted, Hitman, God of War, Fallout, Age of Empires, Pillars, Divinity, Last of Us... Every single fucking ONE was originally created by one, two, a small office, or a mid-sized team of predominantly straight, predominantly white nerds and dudebros, and all were originally designed to appeal to "the chuds." The only reason you left-wing freaks managed to become such a nuisance in the hobby is because you used DEI to subvert merit and get your foot in the door of these companies, before declaring "no chuds allowed now. we now only hire our political allies." And it's precisely *because* you refused to hire "the chuds," and exclusively recruited your left-wing allies, that virtually every franchise I mentioned was subverted, exploited, politicized, and ruined. You idiots can't name ONE legendary game or IP that was made by your "diverse and inclusive teams," because you lack the creativity and merit to even create your own. All you can do is take over and bastardize while piggybacking off other people's work.

Remember when using the wrong pronoun got people canceled? That was dumb.

This is why I went indie. Though, tbh, the freedom is at times "shallow." You'd be amazed how often other indie authors will message each other saying things like, "Weird choice, bro," or "If it were my story I wouldn't have taken that path," or "You sure people reading that genre will be okay with that twist? Your call, I guess." And I'm not talking solicited beta feedback and the like. These are pretty much word-for-word DMs for books after they've been published, addressing story elements others have enjoyed. I've seen this in my own DMs as well as in unsolicited advice given to other authors in group chats and Discords (or screenshots baffled author friends have sent me). In trad publishing, the barriers to wild story ideas are more overt: agents and editors get final say, and that's that. They think it's weird or won't sell, and you're done. Better luck next book. In these parts, it's... conversational. "Stop doing this obscure trope I don't like" or "Stop trying to defy genre norms" in DMs, posts, and BookTube videos. The gates are subtler, but they're there. It'd be one thing if these were just comments in reviews. By all means, have at it in your reviews. An author can decide whether or not to read those. But so often pushback comes in disapproving DMs with language implying (or stating outright) that "No author should ever try this. Why did you?" It's important to consider all feedback, whenever and however it comes, but sometimes this community needs a reminder: We don't need your permission to write these stories. And that's the best damn part.

Why are the pronoun brigade being allowed to quietly walk away from the insanity of the pronoun era. I think they should have their pronouns tattooed on their foreheads. So people may know, for all time, what absolute c*nts they are

To anyone thinking that being an author is easy and lucrative. To those artists who think an author should pay them hundreds for a cover and attack any who chose cheaper options. This is the reality. 13 years and this is it. Not even half the wage I earn per year from my day job.

This month I finished the Timelessness series (bickering gods' clever schemes might destroy the universe) by Susana Imaginario. Overall my favorite character was Chronos/Xylo mostly from book 3. A brief review of the final & fourth installment Anamnesis: josephpoopinski.com/2026/09/…
