An insane video game-related Lost Media find has quietly popped up on YouTube. Two episodes of "Say Powww!", a 1979 game show about video games that only aired in some markets. People in studio and over the phone played Intellivision (!!) games. Predates Starcade!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=29tJ...

at one point in one of the episodes a prank caller actually gets through and poor host Jack Clark has to deal with that live on the air, incredible stuff

I know folks mean well however repeating the idea that "trans rights are not in opposition to women's rights" feeds subconsciously into the idea that trans women aren't really women. Trans women's right are women's rights.

A message to trans + people in the UK. Carry on using the facilities you feel most comfortable in from tomorrow. Your comfort matters. Your right to exist in public life matters. The guidance is completely unworkable and it will fail!!

Not speaking ill of the dead is the greatest crock of shit, and you know why? Nobody has to invoke it whenever someone beloved died, you'll hear outpourings from fans about how authors touched their lives, people reminiscence about their favourite actors' best roles, a celebration of their lives...
