Are you looking for new video games to play, retro or contemporary? If you like the kind of games I do, you might find some on this huge spreadsheet of games I like! Lately I've been working on adding proper developer/publisher credits to it, too!

re: violence and political discussion
I get that most posts that are like "I have an idea for how to improve Amazon's working conditions, [picture of guillotine]" are not serious proposals and more a use of hyperbole to express frustration. That can be good stress relief but it's not the kind of vibe I want to curate in the long term.
re: violence and political discussion
I do recognize that in extreme cases of history, violence might be justified, but it always comes with a terrible cost to pay (and public social media discussions wouldn't help the violent abolition of the French monarchy anyway)
I'm more a fan of educating people, empowering communities, re-evaluating history with a critical eye, and blocking intolerance from our social spaces.
* Still not going to tolerate hate groups, harassers, terfs, bad faith arguments, etc.
* Still support protest movements, socialism, workers unions, etc
I'm also gonna try to follow a few new rules to keep myself in check:
* Everything that somebody might not wanna hear about is inside a CW/Spoiler tag.
* I will only post links to articles or videos I've read/viewed in full.
* I'll only go for activism/politics posts that have a chance of actually helping people instead of being amusing or making me look woke.
* I am gonna stop pro-violence kinds of jokes (e.g. guillotines); the nuance of it just doesn't carry well.
You can feel free to @ me at any of these; there's not a wrong way to engage. I'm more likely to boost things back and forth than do systematic crossposts, so you won't get repeats!
Here's what I'm thinking:
* This account is my "serious" face and will be where I put discussion-style posts that take advantage of the longer character limit. Stuff from here will get boosted to the other accounts when relevant.
* @KommaXL will basically be for jokes, conversation, minor gripes, and furry moods.
* KommaChameleon on twitter is gonna become more focused on following/boosting artists, plus LIGHT and casual broadcasts.
* KommaUpdates on twitter is my self-promotion vehicle.
Now that snouts and awoo are connected, should I use this account or @KommaXL ?
