Just wanna come back to this for a second. While he was complaining about ad hominem attacks against him he and other Amazon execs were creating a narrative that the main strike organizer, Chris Smalls, "isn't smart or articulate". I know this happens all the time but I'm savoring the irony.

Edit: Whoops forgot to post the link. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2020/apr/02/amazon-chris-smalls-smart-articulate-leaked-memo

People really get upset that a game is available on more than one console? What the hell is that? Why does it make a game better if it's only available on one console and no other?

Square just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an rear end in a top hat. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase FFXIII for either system, nor will they purchase any of Square's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Square has alienated an entire market with this move.
Square, publicly apologize and cancel FFXIII for 360 or you can kiss your business goodbye.

A bisexual advocacy group. Their president went off the rails and claimed they alone hold the rights to the bi pride flag and started making threats of lawsuits to artists and companies selling merch featuring it.

A decades old bisexual advocacy group has utterly destroyed their reputation in the span of a few days.

How? By claiming it has a copyright on the bisexual pride flag. When both the creators own statements saying it was free to use and US copyright law not allowing simple geometric shapes like pride flags to be copyrighted.



Honestly this whole thing depresses me. Sure it's not technically enforceable, but a group this delusional will still send put C&D's anyway. And the independent artists they're going after will probably have to give in if they can't find a lawyer to work pro bono.

People who worked with Faith Cheltenham before paint them as a bully and a narcissist, which seems lines up with the original tweets. Faith thinks they speak for all of BiNet and BiNet speaks for the entire bisexual community. No need to even try to gauge even the most general feeling of the bi community, Faith knows what's best for all of us.

Here's a good thread about Faith's attitude https://twitter.com/DrGBeth/status/1255598414252949506?s=19
