yendiTwo links of note this morning (he says, even he has two separate incomplete link dump posts waiting in the wings; you have no idea how behind on LJ I am):
1. Kill Screen Daily has apologized for their ill-thought-out post on Hitman last week. Yes, it contains the dreaded "to all offended" hallmark of the fauxpology, but it's still pretty clearly sincere (as a general rule, calling your actions "a mistake" is a good sign of contrition). For those in need of some context, here's the awesome link I tossed out on Twitter (under my @Tsalmoth account), "Quit Pretending There Isn't a Videogame Rape Culture."
2. Jason Alexander has written what may be the template for how to write a sincere apology after both fucking up, not understanding why you fucked up, and then coming to a true understanding of how you've hurt people. If I thought they were intelligent enough to get it, I'd suggest that Gabe and Tycho need to read this, but they're pretty much the prototypes for only the first two parts of that process.
