Plume,

I hate my country so fucking much. What happened to us! We keep on saying that this country is at risk of fascism when it’s already quietly there! It keeps getting worse. And all of this is because Islamophobia is so bad here, it’s basically a nationalized mental illness at this point…

Plume,

They didn’t. They considered it.

Plume,

People getting scamed is awful and all but… I’m sorry, this is really creeping towards the edge of my empathy here. At some point, it’s kind of like natural selection.

Plume,

Ban vapes, but won’t ban cigarettes…

Plume,

I say slowly ramp up the tax on them, incentiving smokers to quit.

That’s what they’ve been doing for years. It doesn’t really seem to work and is effectively just a tax on the poors.

Plume,

Brave? You mean the privacy focused web browser which marketing’s is so awful I can’t get myself to trust it, due to how much of it looks like a malware crypto scam, who was made by an asshole who was outed from Mozilla for being a homophobic asshole? Yeah. Fuck Brave.

Plume,

It feels so good to see countries not tolerating the far right. As a French, they’re basically everywhere now, everyone on talks like the Far Right on TV, now. My country has gotten so complacent with it…

I hope Germany keeps doing this and more act accordingly.

Plume,

Are we really worst off without Pop-White-Feminism from a website that made articles about the virtue of beating their boyfriends? Eeerh… I don’t known, I’m not convinced.

And I know it’s the example everyone jumps to, but there’s a good reason why. This is still up. It was never taken down. Which means that it was okay to post and okay to keep up for them. No one thought there was something wrong with it.

REGARDLESS OF ALL THAT, THOUGH.

Let us not lose the sight of the fact that this is yet another fucking series of layoffs in this space. We are talking about people who just lost their whole fucking career, some of them worked there for years and now it’s gone.

These are people whose life has been turned upside down because of poor management and greed from the parent company. And this is nor funny, nor worth celebrating, nor anything good at all. It’s just depressing. It’s just something that keeps on fucking happening again and again.

I wish them luck. Maybe they can get together and form something independent and worker owned. Like a bunch of gaming journalists recently did. Because we are in a world where anything even remotely creative or artistic is bound to be fucked over cynical monetary reasons…
