so with metal gear survive announced and people wondering why the hell konami’s destroying themselves, i thought id give some insight into this matter.

i have friends in japan - both natives, and expats now living there. and according to them - and i say this because i have absolutely no sources on this, and based on the nature of this none probably exist - konami is basically the yakuza’s gaming branch. most of the higher-ups have some ties to the yakuza, and have basically since the company’s inception.

so, what does this have to do with konami tearing themselves apart? easy - yakuza no longer wants konami around. maybe someone at konami specifically did something to piss them off and now they’re cutting off ties, maybe theyve found another company that’s better for their purposes, maybe they just don’t want to be involved in gaming anymore.

what matters is - they want konami out of the picture. but they can’t just close them down, or people would get suspicious. so what theyre doing is, theyre frantically laundering money out of the company while deliberately misusing its assets to turn the least profit possible for plausible deniability. fire kojima to erode consumer trust. cancel a high-profile, high-budget game. spend a bunch of money on fox engine remasters of snake eater cutscenes for a pachinko machine that wont make a tenth of that money back. for that matter, use your licenses on pachinko machines - its a dying market and doing so will both erode consumer trust and potentially wring a bit more money out of pachinko from diehard fans before the industry collapses entirely. do pointless microtransactions in mgo because (i would imagine, i dont exactly have a lot of experience in this field) microtransaction profit is an easy number to forge if you need the numbers to line up. and now - make a zombie survival game under the metal gear license, which is doomed to fail due to market saturation and fan backlash, but give it a aaa budget so you can sneak in a couple thousand extra dollars that no one will suspect youve just laundered out. these are all things that they can easily claim are just bad business decisions, despite actually forming a clear pattern. this is intentional. they dont want your money, because that means more they have to launder out before they can close the company entirely.

Jasper in Amethyst’s “ye’ old” outfit. You can see it in the photo w/ Garnet punching a shark but you don’t get a good look at it until Buddy’s Book (which leaked *cough*).

Let’s get one thing straight, if you think all “ghetto” areas are mostly filled with races other than your own, guess what?? YOU’RE RACIST

attitudes like these came from years and years of white superiority and aren’t going to change with anything!!!! I’m not condoning what was done here or everything that BLM has done, but, that’s because I feel like it’s pointless violence.

Nothing is going to change until more old people die, and their kids who were taught how to be “superior whites,” and then their kids who don’t think their superior but still hold some notions of separation between them and other races …

Time is all that can fix the horrible mistake our ancestors made and some of us continue to make

Donald Trump just joked someone should assassinate a Supreme Court Justice or Hillary Clinton

Speaking at a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina on Tuesday, Donald Trump made an offhand comment that “Second Amendment people” might have some unspecified way to stop a President Hillary Clinton’s judges from abolishing gun rights.

“Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish the Second Amendment,” Trump said. “By the way, and if she gets to pick — if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know.”

Trump’s remarks are a bit garbled, but they appear to be a joke that gun owners could use their weaponry to prevent the government from rolling back their gun rights.

He didn’t even insinuate an assassination. He implied that, were the Clinton Administration to use its executive overreach to infringe upon the “shall not be infringed” Second Amendment, those who care about it (”second amendment people”) would be the only people who could “do” something about it. Since, you know, that’s literally the point of the Second Amendment in the first place.
