the first law of tragedies: the end is already written and inevitable. the second law of tragedies: your actions are all your own and you can choose to get off this ride whenever you want. the third law of tragedies: we both know that you are never going to do that.

Just to clarify, there's a bill that would STOP credit card companies from controlling who's allowed to spend money on porn or "risque" (read: queer) content. If you don't think big business should be able to tell you what to spend your own damn money on, call your senators and reps to let them know! It's the Fair Access to Banking Act, H.R.987 in the House, S.410 in the Senate.

so itchio has shadowbanned any games tagged with 'nsfw', 'adult', or 'erotic' so they don't show up in searches, and several devs have reported that their r18 games have been removed from the site with no warning

Do you have to wash your rice or not?

If you want to get rid of the starchy texture and/or you live in a country where rice isn’t always clean: yes.

If you want extra starchiness or stickiness and/or you care about keeping the nutritional powder in there: no.

If you are making a risotto or a paella: no.

If you are boiling your rice in a lot of water and then draining it like spaghetti to reduce the risk of arsenic exposure: no.
