#why is that so hard to understand

As someone whose degree was borderline digital marketing, it baffles me every single time companies like Unity pull this kind of shit.

First of all, it doesn't make sense. I don't know who conceived this moronic fee plan, but it's absolutely absurd. There's a lot of ways to get more money - not that I find any of them particularly favorable, but at least a price increase, sub tiers, etc are somewhat sensible in a functional way.

Beyond that, they don't have any common sense to see how this shit ALWAYS fails. One of two things are going to happen. Either everyone is going to jump ship from Unity (already seeing game devs reporting they'll be pulling their games) and their competitors will overtake them, or they'll have to backpedal.

Obviously, losing most of their business is bad and understandably unwanted for them, but I'm baffled by how few recognize the power of the second consequence.

Even if they reverse the decision, this is a HUGE smear to their reputation. Unity will lose business regardless, but even worse will be the loss of confidence in the company.

Consumers and devs alike are not going to forget this. They will not let it go. Other companies will use this as a talking point for their engines and their assets being superior because they at least respect game devs and gamers. They never tried to charge bullshit fees. They never got shamed back into being user friendly.

Reputation matters. Especially in today's market. Consumers largely do not fuck around anymore with companies who do this, especially when they've been dependable in the past.

It's foolish. It's embarrassing. It's greedy and out of touch. I don't envy their PR team right now.

Live picture of my reaction every time I see someone make a headcanon that Tyler is an irresponsible student like this kid isn't trying his best to keep his grades up really high while being a star athlete to get a college scholarship, despite being stuck in a nightmare dimension with creatures that want to kill him for seven whole hours every day and not knowing if he or his sister will survive long enough to actually have a future:

#i'm going to commit a murder #if ppl don't stop mischaracterizing him #like him and taylor are both responsible students that are working hard towards their future #why is that so hard to understand #Like NO #HE WOULD NOT SKIP ASSIGNMENT TO GO HAVE FUN #DID NONE OF THESE PPL READ CHAPTER 48 & 49 #THIS MAN HASN'T HAD FRIENDS OR FUN UNTIL VERY RECENTLY #HIS PRIORITY WAS TAKING CARE OF HIS FAMILY AND MAKING SURE HE AND TAYLOR BOTH HAVE A FUTURE #I'm done ranting now #sorry #this isn't directed at anyone specific #I was just angry so no bullying #school bus graveyard #school bus graveyard webtoon #sbg #sbg (webtoon) #tyler hernandez #taylor hernandez #hernandez twins

I tried to explain to someone that due to my ptsd, I'm chronically exhausted, in pain, unable to build any close connections, scared of people, scared of being in public and that I get deeply distressed even in a grocery store. And this person told me 'you should take medicine because your condition is crippling'.

And I know what I said sounds bad but HEY. That might seem crippling only from an outside perspective of a person who does not have to deal with such issues. This is all deeply normal to me. I do not need medicine and also how dare anyone suggest such a thing. I am still offended.

I could complain about work all day and a lot of it is about egos and people expecting a lot but they don't know shit so they don't know that their expectations are not based in reality.

If you say shit like "I just can't see x with a man/woman, they're not bi to me they're a lesbian/gay" then you just said something biphobic. Point blank. Denying someone's bisexuality is biphobic. How many times does this need to be said.

#I'm so fucking tired of how deeply ingrained biphobia is in so many people in the community #and how every time this shit is brought up by bisexuals we get eye rolls and dismissals and told we're being sensitive #if it's homophobic to deny a gay man his homosexuality and a lesbian her lesbianism #THEN IT'S BIPHOBIC TO DENY BI PEOPLE ANY PART OF THEIR BISEXUALITY #why is that so hard to understand

Tired of hairless elves

Every fantasy rpg needs to do elves like tes does instead

“Hey, so we want you all to be using Midjourney for concepts at work since we’re small and don’t have a concept art team” so hire a concept artist then

and another thing is ppl are saying how naomi and sasha are going to be right back in wwe anyway and that this is all pointless when like the whole point of it is that wwe does right by them and treats them the way they deserve. It’s not about shoving it to wwe and throwing a temper tantrum so you can quit or get fired and move on to some other company. It was the same with Ali. It wasn’t necessary about leaving wwe, it was about getting the respect and treatment that he deserved. When workers go on strike, often times they go back once their needs have been met by the company. This is no different.

#wwe #naomi #sasha banks #why is that so hard to understand #it doesn’t make what their doing any less valid

[musashi]

ok seriously if i tell you to treat me a certain way and you repeatedly go against my wishes please just unfollow me.

i am very direct about my wants, needs, and boundaries. when i tell you not to talk to me a certain way it is not then an invitation to do the opposite. there is no secret message i am trying to send you. i will always tell you exactly what i want and how i feel and, if you ask, why i feel that way.

just got another handful of asks that were like ‘but i don’t wanna be mean to u :(’ ok then do not participate. it’s kind of a downer to see the ask notif, think i’m getting something i want, and then see the opposite. if you wanna compliment me do it when i’m not running an askbox game where the goal is the opposite. perhaps reblog some of my posts with compliments instead. c’mon guys

#wordy wendy #when i ask for brutal honesty and i dont get it #it makes me feel like you are coddling me to avoid hurting my feelings #which is a major berserk button of mine #it is INCREDIBLY bold of anyone to assume they can in any way hurt my feelings #hence me asking for the cruelty #i want to see y'all try so i can receive the beautiful rush of it not working #its FUN #i want to have FUN with yall #why is that so hard to understand

I want a bed that's round and has is covered over the top. It would be so cozy and comfy and safe... but I search egg bed on Google and I get zero results that are what I'm yearning for.

Somebody start up a company right now.

I WANT TO SLEEP IN AN EGG.

As someone who works w animals “animals are not mindless automatons, they actually do have feelings and individuality and are capable of feeling acute physical and emotional pain and of forming deep attachments with other animals and people” and “animals are not human infants and have a limited capacity to communicate with humans so you have to familiarize yourself with their boundaries bc if they feel threatened or overstimulated they will fall back on their basic instincts and if you fuck around you are going to find out” are statements that can and should coexist

#why is this so hard for ppl to understand #yes they’re capable of genuine love and empathy #no that doesn’t come with an endless supply of patience for human bs or a complex understanding of human motivations #bc they aren’t just here for human consumption they’re literally vibing #animal rights #animal welfare #animal care #animal exploitation

friend wanted to see my tumblr, and when i told him i can’t show it to him bc it’s basically my personal diary he went “oh so I can’t see it but a bunch of strangers on tumblr can??” he literally does not get me. no one will get me like the people in my phone get me

#It’s just so different #even though it’s public it still feels secret and safe. i feel comfy sharing a lot more on here than I do in my actual day to day life lol #in my head I’m also just speaking to myself 90% of the time which helps #if a friend off tumblr saw my thoughts I’d feel so weird ab it #esp bc they might get the vagueposting about certain situations and tell mutual friends #no thank u. this is for me. I’m not about to start censoring my thoughts bc someone I know knows my tumblr #u guys literally saw me have LIVE BREAKDOWNS #meanwhile I’ll have the worst fucking day in history and tell no one about it. I’m already cripplingly private but way more so in real life #this is basically a low stress journaling outlet for me. it’s so important for me to maintain the separation #like this is actually my diary & has been so handy for letting out emotions / articulating thoughts / staying on track !! #& I’ve met so many kind people on here who actually get me. which is so hard to find irl bc I’m surrounded by pre-med gunners/overachievers #who are by standard not very good w emotion & can be competitive/judgmental. or at least it’s hard for me to be vulnerable in front of them #and I’m part of that crowd so I reserve my emotions only to a handful of very close friends #it’s nice to hop on here and express negative emotions!! or positive emotions!! just whatever I want and it’s low stress and people get me #I don’t have to worry about judgment or competitiveness etc etc #like everyone on here is so kind & nice & understanding. & just a breath of fresh air from the types I run w. it’s just nice to have this #so idk that’s why I think I’ll always be strict about keeping the worlds separate. it just works #p

Alright let's imagine a scene that is all too normal in palestine. A palestinian business owner finds his building covered in graffiti stars of Davids and Hebrew that says "gas the arabs" and "death to arabs"

Now imagine there's a reporter there and asks the palestinian business owner what happens and they say "the jews attacked my business"

Pause. Now your response might be "uncle no. Say israelis not jews" and then this is when he would look at you like youre stupid because the israelis doing this are jewish. They are not the Christians or the druze or the palestinian ones with Israeli citizenship. They are Jewish israelis who believe in their religious supremacy. When you graffiti stars of david all over a palestinian business, car, or the street you seek that conflation. it sends a message, this is jewish land and you're next.

The problem is that these videos circulate in zionist circles. "Watch this video of children in gaza calling for the death of jews" "watch how they say they want to fight and kill jews" those children are referring to Israeli soldiers that come in night and do their raids with the star of David attached to their uniform or the ones that bomb them. It's easy to watch those videos and assume that palestinians are indoctrinating their children on anti semitism or you can realize that those children's only interaction with jewish ppl is through violence and parents cannot protect their children from this. Doesn't matter context is lost

Abby Martin went to Jerusalem and interviewed israelis for 2 hours and she says every israeli was extremely confident to say that this land is for them and that they should push the Arabs out and when she interviewed palestinians they spoke of freedom from occupation and their dreams. That's reality. Not the soundbites.

And yet we have invasive youtubers and interviewers constantly in the street of ramallah or wherever in palestine asking palestinians "do you hate jews?" And in those videos you hear those palestinians say "no we have no problem with jews we have a problem with occupation and we have a problem with zionism." Bc this is how we are trained to respond to this trope. Palestinians are very aware what the world thinks of us and the reality is that many palestinians have internalized it and we grow up reading books on the Holocaust and train ourselves to recognize anti semitic dog whistles so zionists don't get the soundbites they want.

So we say "anti zionism is not anti semitism" and we say "israeli zionists" and we do not say "jewish supremacy" even thought it exists in palestine but "zionist supremacy" and in these carefully worded speech we water down what is happening to us in an effort to not deter people away from solidarity. But it means nothing. The world categorically blames palestinians for rising anti semitism they blame us for jewish insecurity globally.
