I wrote my opinion on the Rammstein allegations. This is my first blog post since 2021,so i would really appreciate if you read it and told me your thoughts.
Okay hold on with the Unity thing. Hopefully this change will be stopped, but if not we need to start archiving everything NOW.

Cult of the Lamb won’t be the only one. Hundreds if not thousands of games might be deleted. Years of gaming history, lost forever because people can’t afford this change. This is almost as bad as the Adobe Flash shutdown.
I’m going to be honest, I have absolutely no clue how to go about this. But if anyone does, please organize something. We only have 3 and a half months to do this.
EDIT: The above tweet screenshot ended up being a joke (three cheers for autism), but the fact still remains that a bunch of games will still be pulled of steam, especially the smaller ones that only barely hit the revenue mark for being charged.
“Should trans women be allowed to compete in women’s sports” I don’t think there should be women’s sports. I think it’s a silly artificial construction that only upholds the gender binary while it’s benefits are incidental and would be better addressed directly.
Care about giving people with different body types and muscle mass a shot? Split your league by weight categories like boxing, or some other direct physical measurement. Gender is at best a poor proxy for these and we only do it because we still treat women are a different species. “But that still wouldn’t be fully fair to everyone?” Sport isn’t fully fair, it’s about rewarding people with the most biological advantage. That’s the whole point of it.
You want to give more sporting opportunity to women and minorities specifically? Okay then do that. Create your own opportunities league, but if we’re giving up the pretense that it’s about essential biological advantage then you better let trans women in.
What’s that, the extra league would be treated as a novelty afterthought and would lack the prestige of the real main event? You mean like how women’s events were treated when they were introduced? True! In fact women’s leagues are still largely treated as secondary now, and you know how we can fix it? Make the main leagues open to everyone with weight, height or muscle mass categories so that people with different body types can excel. Like I suggested before. Problem solved.
Women’s sport is bad actually.
Can’t wait for the terfs to find this and be like “mask off!!! The TRAs want to abolish women’s sport!” Yeah lol die mad about it. You may be happy with your condescending secondary leagues but not me. Open up sport categories based on attributes that actually matter to the sport, not binarist fiction.
If you are convinced that all woman would still universally lose to all men even when correcting for things like gross muscle mass difference, then you’re a misogynist by the way.
Katie Ledecky is a better swimmer than Michael Phelps but he’s still the more famous athlete because the mens events are more high profile, more covered by the media. he gets the sponsorships and the money.
if we could abolish sport division by sex, Ledecky would kick his ass.
