Typo: “an adrenaline” not “a adrenaline”

Worth mentioning this right is often shut down by bullshit police. In Berkeley they shut down protests over police brutality after Eric Gardner died by shooting tear gas into the crowds and beating whomever they could. I’ll admit the next day they were more tame (thanks to all the videos catching their abuse) but I’ll never forget seeing four officers beat up some female student twenty feet away. Disgusting.

How do you create something like this? I.e. what are the keywords I’d look for if I wanted to create my own graphics library from scratch like this?

Very cool btw

I wouldn’t consider it common in the sense that it’s used often in every day conversation, but it’s definitely a construction I’ve heard enough to understand without thinking about it, if that makes sense.

I wonder how many awful things Uber has swept under the table...

Very powerful images. Let’s hope Hong Kong doesn’t meet the same fate.

Agreed. It’s so easy and convenient to stay in our day/to-day patterns (e.g. gaming after work for a bit), but the level of absurdity of their actions really needs to be met with protest. We need to send a symbol to other companies that this won’t stand.

Give them an inch and they’ll take a mile.

Fortunately the games mentioned don’t require any money other than the initial upfront cost, hence the protest. Protesting could also vastly raise queue times, making the experience i enjoyable for many.

But I agree, I’ll never spend another $ on anything blizzard unless they take a different stand on the issue.

Completely agree. Despite all the signage of empathy (philanthropy, speeches, etc.) I struggle to think of more “real” people in Hollywood.

This is really unfortunate. I don’t game a ton, but when I do I pretty much only play Starcraft or Overwatch. Long time fan of the GSL as well.

I know it’s nothing but a drop in the bucket but I will no longer support Blizzard - time to find another game.

Perhaps we should organize a day of protest across all blizzard games.

I think it’s pretty telling that I don’t feel comfortable posting this on my main account.
