There's an EU initiative going on right now that essentially boils down to wanting to force videogame publishers with paid games and/or games with paid elements such as DLC, expansions and microtransactions to leave said games in a playable state after they end support, or in simpler terms, make them stop killing games.

A "playable state" would be something like an offline mode for previously always online titles, or the ability for people to host their own servers where reasonably possible just to name some examples.

I don't think I need to tell anyone that having something you paid for being taken from you is bad, which is a thing that routinely happens with live service and other always online games with a notable recent example being The Crew which is now permanently unplayable.

Any EU citizen is eligible to sign the initiative, but only once and if you mess up that's it. You can find it here. (https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2024/000007_en)

Even if you're not European or you signed it already, you can share this initiative with anyone who is, even if they don't care about videogames specifically because this needs a million signatures and there is different thresholds that need to be met for each EU country for their votes to even count and could also be a precedent for other similar practices like when Sony removed a bunch of Discovery TV content people paid for.

My mom kept everything she’s found in the washing machine the past ten years and made it into an art piece. It’s basically an awesome portrait of what it’s like for two girls growing up in the late 90s/early 2000s.

I love this style!!

Here's Momiji Nishiya, 13 years old and representing Japan in skateboarding. She won gold medal in Women's Street and, if I'm not mistaken, was the youngest gold medallist of Tokyo 2020 Olympics 🥇🎉

Despite how bleak Worm is, it managed to really sell me on both the concepts of "power of friendship" and "murder is fucking bad, don't do it."

Working at an aquarium will have you saying things like “this is my favorite scallop because he’s sassy”

Goodbye, Lynn. Thank you for your constant support and encouragement since the day I started these comics. It has meant the world to me, and I wish I could have told you. We will remember you forever.

Art is how we decorate space and music is how we decorate time.

Pattern by Pride and Joy Quilting. I darkened the skin tones and added trim to make braids.
