So. Whisper networks. People who have been abused and/or harassed 1) believe or know reporting will just make it worse for them 2) still want to warn others

When that happens, people (esp. women) use whisper networks to let others know so they stay safe. Orgs hate this behavior. Too bad.

Fantasy Maiden Wars is currently 20% off on Steam, and I assure you this is a LOT of game for $28 bux. Like three and a half Fire Emblems' worth of SRPG gameplay, all with a single contiguous story.

Hi everyone. Things have been happening in the fan-translation scene and I've been overdue in talking about them. For the first time ever I've made a long writeup. Please read it and feel free to reach out to me with comments.

Remember the old 2000s fansub days, when groups would race to get subs out so that they'd be the first and get the most viewers even if it meant tons of preventable errors?

Or how some groups would pick a neglected series/genre, produce a slapdash, low-effort TL, then go "It's better than nothing"?

Felt sour after all the discourse about AI translation, and wanted to go and do something positive as a mostly retired human translator. So I've decided to resume my dropped Wild ARMs 2 retranslation. Just familiarising myself with the workflow.

(No, I'm not actually putting Yu-Gi-Oh references in)

If you ever wonder why some people don’t speak on certain events, it is because there are days, and this is one, where they can only follow rule 0 of the internet.

Is has shifted forms over time, and in its current iteration reads

β€œDon’t get the server subpoenaed”

Translations set global legacies for works and if you're not prepared to handle those ramifications, then stay away. If anyone on the team sees this, I sincerely urge you to rescind this patch and think deeply what you have done. This isn't a matter of ideology; it's about responsibility, period

I have no insights to add to the horrors of ICE and the Trump admin. Trump and Republicans are doing what they said they'd do, and what they wanted to do. I wish them an express train to the Hague.

Stay strong. Stay human. Stay warm. Stay together. Stay strong.

I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street

Suffering is optional, but committing to the Awful Block bit is necessary.

While I'm disappointed that PCF made this type of error in judgment to begin with, I will at least give them credit for quickly reversing course.

Someone somewhere should have said "Don't tell the ENTIRE AGDQ CROWD that part of their donations is going to LLM research" even if it's for cancer patient support. Anyone with any community involvement woulda warned them.

What a massive L. Legit gonna ruin the event for a lot of people, no joke.
