    I pirate because I was taught to pirate from a young age. My dad brought home a copy of DOOM from his friend, my aunt rented VHS’s from Blockbuster and copied TF out of them and let friends borrow them. Every Windows OS I’ve installed we’ve reused CD keys. And now, I download movies/tv shows for my kids to watch so they aren’t inundated with ads. But…I buy the things that are worth it. I’ve bought my kids all the Five-Nights games because they enjoyed them. My steam library is FILLED with humble-bundles from Indy artists and games that were lovingly made by their creators like BG3, Enshrouded, Nightingale, etc. But I also have a Nintendo switch that’s cracked WIIIIDE open because fuck Nintendo. Also fuck Microsoft, EA, Ubisoft, Activision (RIP Blizzard), Apple, and I’m sure I’ll come up with more later. Oh yeah, and FUCK NESTLE.
