  • It goes beyond trashy. He’s riling up his base with a show of violence and normalizing bloodsport. This is an intentional shift in social norms.

  • My kid loves roblox because its controls are pretty much completely ideal for her ipad and apple pencil

    Roblox is entirely unplayable to me because its control schemes inevitably break all my millennial expectations and I don’t have great internet connectivity at home anymore.

Touchscreen controls are death and other control schemes are second class citizens in the modern landscape
