been feeling kinda stuck lately. like I’ve been running in place for the past three years. i know i’ll bounce back and find something to keep me going, probably as soon as i wake up in the morning. but damn if The Horrors don’t hit on lonely nights like this sometimes.

it's so awesome how trans women warned about and predicted much of what would happen years in advance and the collective response by much of the "community" was and still is isolating them or scolding them for their tone. nobody ever learns anything they just jump to save their own backs

isabel fall was right, btw: “And the moment [queer activists’] work reached a usable stage—the moment society was ready to accept plastic gender, and scientists were ready to manipulate it—the military found a new resource…the military can make gender tactical.”

"the graphics have caught up with our imagination" is intended as a compliment but is inadvertently damning of the whole project. Yeah, the imagination of Halo no longer exceeds a high-resolution tree. Cool.

The original Halo presented an alluring and mysterious setting that combined alien ruins with Pacific Northwest-inspired natural grandeur, but the level of detail back then simply hadn't yet caught up with the imagination. That's resolved here, with a gorgeous visual update that makes the whole campaign pop with excitement.
