Looking at the Steam store page of this game doesn't make me want to play this at all. This is just a gut reaction and I don't know why I feel like this, and I don't want to spend the time to try and figure it out. But there must be something wrong with the game or the presentation of it.

I'm not sure you have a case if the percentage of women on maternity leave in the fired group is roughly the same as in the non-fired group.

If it isn't illegal to fire people taking maternity leave specifically, which I don't think it is in the US, you're out of luck. The only illegal thing is firing people because of maternity leave. Since there was a mass layoff, it can easily be argued that the maternity leave was not the reason.

The US needs better labor laws, and thus unions. An individual can't do anything against it.

Not many people here I guess, because most people here use ad blockers.

There can be multiple different people and multiple different motivations within people that do not all need to agree with each other. One person/thought can be good, while others aren't.

That discrepancy alone doesn't discredit the good things, unless they're directly related. In this case, they aren't. Israel's genocide needs to be condemned, but so need to be the events from Tiananmen square.

I hate arguments like yours. It's always like, "you either be perfect or you're the worst scum on Earth". Completely counterproductive. Yes, criticize the bad parts. But don't paint the good things, like this, as bad, it's just unnecessary.

Especially, an art installation at one place has absolutely nothing to do with who decides who goes to a stupid song contest. Wtf.

It's almost certain they can't. Motives are notoriously hard to prove, and they can just invent a plausible, legal, lie.

Based on the article they were together before working together. Because of that, while there may of course be elements where some position of power was abused after they started working together, it's quite unlikely that everything here was against her will.

This is likely a case where both people have been shitty to each other in some way.

Ethics will probably change... I guess in the future it'll become pretty irrelevant to have "nude" pictures of oneself somewhere, because everyone knows it could just be AI generated. In the transition period it'll be problematic though.

You didn't get what was talked about here. Re-read the topmost parent comment.

How do you binary search for two people arriving, one punches the other, they both leave?

How are new memes supposed to emerge if non-memes are removed?!?! Checkmate Lemmings

I mean there's probably people out there, but who'd want to do more meaningless, non-interesting quests? The fact that there's infinite quests that can be generated does not mean all of those will be good quests, there's infinite ways to arrange letters but only a few specific ones worth reading.

I don't want to shit on the mod maker or anything, and I also haven't tried the mod out, but I simply can't imagine that with our current technology it's possible to generate any larger amount of fun side-quests. You'd probably do one or two of every "type" the mod maker came up with, and then you're done. That might be the intention, but in that case, this is definitely not "news-worthy".

But also maybe I'm just too negative...

Most often this happens because the user runs some other addon/blocker that interferes with ublock (or gets detected). It's important to test with only ublock active and see if the problem persists, and if not, to slowly enable more and more to see what is causing the issues.

It's more of a tragic story than a game. The misery is kind of the point. If you don't see that point or can't enjoy that, then yeah, it'll be terrible.
