Hey folks there's this really cool Hurricane Relief Bundle with a bunch of neat games including my own Keep It Together. All proceeds are going to hurricane relief charities.

It only occurred to me a few minutes ago that I could buy it for myself so I did just that.
I think I figured out my thoughts on freeman's mind:
Freeman is played as an asshole intentionally, and it's quite funny!
but... I'm worried about the "Rick and Morty fan" effect, where people take a look at Rick and think he's a good role model.
how many young dudes thought freeman from freeman's mind is a cool guy and that they should be like him?
sad
I feel like it's too late...
that even though I'm finally safe enough to be out to my irl friends, I might not ever be able to transition or w/e because I got trapped in this homophobic/transphobic job for 4 years
I'm crying rn...
If this kinda of extreme proliferation of Lashon Hara throughout a community becomes dominant, you get extremely paranoid anxious communities with incredibly toxic all or nothing approaches to each and every conflict. Your stance on any one person's mistake puts you into factions of social groups who condemn each other for associating with or defending each other. It rips apart communities and makes everyone miserable.
Absolutely confront people when they fuck up but when it's resolved, move on
"But Puppy!Rabbi! Why does HaShem tell us that Lashon Hara is Hata?" Well when any and every mistake/misdeed you ever make is never forgotten and constantly mentioned, it makes people extremely terrified of making mistakes. If admitting to any mistake means it will be held over them forever, then learning and moving on isn't an option. So instead they tend to get defensive and insist it was not a mistake and refuse to learn, in order to hopefully stamp down the criticism. Nobody learns. No accountability.
