What can you do? CALL. WRITE. SCREAM. The bill is up for a vote THIS WEDNESDAY. Call your Senator. Dem. Republican. Whomever. Right now, it's a solid R bill, but they're looking for Dems to take it across the finish line. Let them know how badly it stinks. www.defendonlineprivacy.com/screen/

Defend Online Privacy: Stop the SCREEN Act!

The Senate Commerce Committee will vote on the SCREEN Act on August 5. ACT NOW to stop it!

It will be worse than this! Most websites will be forced to ask you to send your ID to a third party surveillance service, adding a credit card won't be enough for most. Bluesky asks for your *social security number* if you live in Texas now, due to this shit. Call in, and kill it.

This will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.

One thing that comes to mind when I hear talk about "friction" in games: isn't friction the force that makes things stick? Like, y'know, in actual science terms? So if you reduce "friction" by sanding down all the rough spots, what are people supposed to hold onto, exactly?

like if its really Hater Week on here as decreed by the gaming discourse movers and shakers at aftermath and adjacent outlets then i feel comfortable saying i find this brave new world of fighting games to be a bit shit & ppl deserve better. dassit
