It's not gonna last you 20 hours, but last I checked the official Sonic 1, 2 and CD ports are all free on mobile (and they're really good).

I mean isn't that what OP is trying to figure out? A way for people to hear how you sound inside your skull.

Yikes... That's fucking gross.
Hopefully there's some kind of backlash from chess players and community figures, this is absolutely vile.

Honestly lately I'm kinda just losing hope in humanity, and wondering if LGBT folks will ever be accepted in society. Seeing what little progress we acquired over the past century or so be undone so easily is crushing.

Fuck FIDE, fuck Russia, and fuck all the ignorant, hateful bigots that keep fighting against people's very right to exist.

They're definitely gonna go after the wayback machine next, because what use is there in controlling social media and deleting what bothers them, if there's freely accessible records of it somewhere else?

The archive needs to be protected at all costs.

You can acknowledge that he was racist and still appreciate his work/reference him.

Separating the art from the artist doesn't make you complicit in their shitty opinions; there's still a lot to get out of Lovecraft's stories, he's one of the core pillars of modern horror after all, his influence is inescapable. You could argue it's a different story when it comes to living artists/celebrities, since you are in some way contributing to their success, but Lovecraft is long dead, his work is literally so old it's public domain lol, you're good.

I've personally been reading many of his stories lately for inspiration, and it's been very enriching. You have to keep an eye on the racist overtones of some of them, but as long as you do I don't see the issue.

All good! I was just worried I was missing something, since I see a lot of very small images on Kbin lol

Honest question, is this image really supposed to this small?

It's only 250x169 on my end, and I can't find a way to enlarge it. Been happening to me a lot on Kbin, I can't tell if I'm missing something, if people really are posting tiny images, or if it's a bug of some kind?

All I see is one more reason to turn to piracy
