I really really want to make an action sort of modern take on the fmv: using 3d animation blending as well as stuff like inverse kinematics to allow players to switch branch as they approach them with a reasonable margin for error. Imagine John Wick level choreo in a game #gamedev

it's so awesome i get to be a woman for the rest of my life

telling us to enjoy the camps is fine but we apparently can't say "tranny" anymore even though it's OUR word.

tranny banned on the tranny webbed sight for saying tranny #FreeSaraSocial

Excellent piece with a raft of amazing cross references

Two-ish years ago, I thought I was rambling on a pet peeve here, plus doing a decent job of rationalizing this. Today, I ran a lengthy workshop(/lecture? ahem) on this topic, and people seemed to resonate with it. More on representing premodern worldviews with intentionality, then, as time goes on.

Jobs for Trans Women That Are Not In the Military Industrial Complex

Blue Sky's moderation announcements should be accompanied by the backing music of the yakety sax.

Don't sleep on Relooted, an Africanfuturistic heist game about reclaiming artifacts from Western museums. Here's a chat with two of its creators, who are putting their time and money into building up the games scene in South Africa.

The Best Heists Are Also History Lessons

In Relooted, before you steal artifacts you must learn why they matter

The trans artist barely scraping by on itch io is making the art you want but they don't have the budget of a small country to work with so you turn your nose up at it and beg for scraps from the war crimes corporation

There is also a weird thing with wanting more games to feature diverse viewpoints, then acknowledging indies are doing that, so basically what you want is a big budget game to do what indies are doing... And you gotta give this up.

DOOM '98 Imagined what if id Software released an additional entry in the Doom series in 1998, using a technological mix between id Tech 2 and GoldSrc engine. Going for the blend of fantastical and grounded, which would be in vein of Half-Life and System Shock 2.

Spider-Man can be anyone, even the person you want to forget.

I think a lot of brainwormed trans women could stand to recognise when their issues are just "being a woman" and not "being a tranny"

if responding to racists with “fuck you, you should be excluded from polite society” means I do not support academic freedom then I guess I don’t support academic freedom

The funniest thing is that my gf is on the right there, I really did meet her on the who goes there forums

If we adults don't dismantle this system, the kids subjected to it will and the adults who implemented it won't like the way they do it

many of you were wondering why the hot part of the cigarette is on his head. well,

i love being trans so fucking much and this country is getting ripped to pieces trying to take that away from me and they are failing to understand that it will never work. bye bye u cringe ass losers lmao.

This is all because JK Rowling is using her vast wealth and influence to engage in lawfare and censor anything that criticizes her. I won't stand for it. bsky.app/profile/esqu...

One thing I wish people would realize is just how central JK Rowling is to the entire anti-trans ecosystem. Looking at a network node analysis of the top 200 anti-trans X accounts, she is the most central figure spanning both sides of the Atlantic from Republicans to Labour.

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.

Mid Century Modern tableware and where I think it would stand on trans issues, a thread

Nearly everything the public believes about trans people is false and that is fundamentally a failure of media.

If Jane Schoenbrun ever secures the right to direct a Nightmare on Elm Street movie, can they transfer it to me for no reason other than the fact that I want it more?

And then you either hit 40 or a level of stress so bad your systems cannot cope, burn out so hard they stop working and will likely never work again and suddenly your low support needs neurodivergence is a high support needs disability.

Alix Weasel@alixwzl.bsky.social · 2mo ago

If you are adult diagnosed - whether with autism or ADHD or something else - you probably have one hell of a system of support mechanisms that you've developed over a lifetime. Which from the outside might look like not 'genuinely' needing support - but is a very poor assessment metric.

To most people, rape is the sexual violation of another person's body. Cisgender supremacists routinely invert this commonplace understanding and repeatedly act as if autonomy over one's own body, for trans people, is an act of rape against the cisgender concept of the idealised sexual body.
