I dont play TF2... I was hoping for something physical. Not that you know they should or anything, but I saw Bungie do something (SOMETHING NOT SHIPPABLE OUTSIDE THE US GODDAMNIT!!!!!!!!!) and was surprised Valve hadnt. I don't need swag to donate, I've donated with istocks scheme and given my time collecting with the…
think you are safe... and you may be doomed. I really don't expect nothing good from that situation in Japan. Some japanese friends does not talk good things about the situation, and they think their goverment is lying and hiding all the facts.…

Japanese TV is a bit more rational. man I hope this shit ends well. they have snow up in Sendai now, where thousands are displaced without shelter. Tokyo is without power. (you can imagine how scary that is) we are glued to the TV and…
