I was under the impression that it is a perfectly good game with a horrible playerbase. But I suppose certain mechanics, like being able to take your teammates hostage and steal their time without actually playing to win, might nuture toxicity.

I have a soft spot for dense, relatable semi-nonsense lyrics à la “I Am The Walrus” by the Beatles. My corresponding playlist is still rather short, so feel welcome to recommend any that you know. This one scratches the itch. It’s based on tweets from back then when Twitter wasn’t a shitshow....
Throughout the past decade, I have gone throught the process of eating animals and feeling patronized by people saying that maybe I shouldn’t, to being a vegetarian, to being a vegetarian with a strong preference for vegan options whenever possible. While this lifestyle is quite convenient, I am considering to go all the way....
It does sound a little saucy now. Maybe I was rather looking at myself and seeing a lot of animal there. I’d pick a human life over another, with complexity as my chosen scale.
Thanks for the ‘guidepost’, I appreciate it. I’m determined to focus on things being off on a larger scale rather than attacking individuals who are just trying to live in a flawed world.
I think I can see it as expanding the empathy to humans that cling to the worldview they grew up with as well as the food they are used to. Change is strenuous. Plus I don’t want to put it on myself to deal with people’s reactance. I rather feel like empathizing the personal choice factor (you choose to eat animals, I choose not to, we are both valid persons) will keep people from getting their walls up too quickly.
I find that it makes most sense to me to answer “is this and that art”-questions with a yes by default. Is it made by a human with the intent to convey a message? Art. Any other approach always seems to end in questions of taste.
While I don’t like that particular art form and choose not to look at it whenever possible, I’d say yes. A lot of art tries to get you to think, feel or do something and I don’t see how this is fundamentally different, even though it seems a little sick at first. From the perspective of, say, the graphic designer for the ad campaign, it might very well be art.
Exactly. The message here is more along the lines of “pity this was painted over so boringly, this is what you get”. It is not just a wall, it is the wall with the original artwork still underneath a thin layer of paint. I call art. Even with just the “hehe”, I’d say it still has the old meaning of any mark made on purpose anywhere: “I was here.” (That seems to be the main point of tagging.)
One major reason cities do this is because most fellow spray can wielders will respect the existing work, thus resulting in a nicely painted instead of randomly tagged building.
Just because there are many doesn’t mean they are right (I don’t mean to offend). Art, I believe, is not in the eye of the beholder, but in the thought of the creator.
Unfortunately, defending (or even creating) diversity and inclusion requires the courage to speak up against bullies. I’m not sure we are encouraging our kids ourselves to do that enough.
You can file an issue at WebCompat. If they can reproduce it, they will contact the website.
Plus I’d like to add that while it is the developer’s fault to only test in chrome, they have deliberately not respected established standards and used their market share to enforce the use of new standards that aren’t compatible with other engines.
An example: If I understand correctly, Edge used to be non-chromium based, but was more or less forced into it by deliberate design choices that would, for example, result in youtube contents only being displayed correctly in chrome. People would blame their browser and swap. That is how you abuse the power your have from having the biggest marketshare to increase your marketshare.

Veganism is a way to see things more clearly without doing the tiresome mental gymnastics of justifying your part in the status quo.
