- Persona 5 has a litany of problems, but one that often goes unexamined is the hypocrisy and impropriety of Joker being allowed to engage in romantic/physical relationships with adult women. @jessacogs explains how this hurts us all. bit.ly/3gqCJ6A

- We at Uppercut consider ourselves lucky to call so many of the folks at @IGN friends, peers, and mentors to us. They are fierce and compassionate in all they do, and we stand beside them as they bravely defend themselves from grotesque corporate overreach ignemployees.medium.com/an-open-letter…
- "This wasn’t my first encounter with racism or gender violence in World of Warcraft, and it certainly wouldn’t be my last. For many players, racism in-game is nonchalant and humorous. Sexual harassment is pervasive and inescapable." buff.ly/3Hgc6PW
