Your friendly reminder to not spend money on gacha.

if your response to this post is “too late for me” i want you to sit down and think very, very hard about your life. Because maybe you said it jokingly, and it IS a joke, then good for you, but if you actually do spend significant amounts of money for a jpeg you’re not even sure you’re going to get, you might have a gambling addiction and that is a serious problem not a joke or a meme.

and on a similar note, keep in mind that people who do spend money this way need support, not ridicule. these types of games are specifically designed to engage existing addictive tendencies and to create them in vulnerable people. addicts aren’t stupid or irresponsible, and the root causes of addiction are often genetic and traumatic, so please be compassionate, not dismissive
