Iโ€™ve been largely offline recently but Iโ€™m breaking that pattern to let you know that Mythmatch, a game I was *so* lucky to work on, comes out on Friday!

It would mean to world to me if you could check it out and tell your friends about it!!

Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful.

Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

Sharing only a screenshot because the article itself is as frankly fucking embarrassing as you'd expect from The Guardian but I saw only one single post about this news on my timeline and I try not to take social media as everything but truly feels like most cis people do not give a fuck

I'll never forgive Capcom for basically saying "Jill is infected with a virus that stops her from aging" so she doesn't even get the benefit of being a kickass older lady even if she appears in RE10

I cannot stop laughing at this clip of SmashJT trying to play Marathon. He's been shitting on it for MONTHS and claiming every journalists praising it is a shill and he WILLINGLY UPLOADED FOOTAGE of himself missing 95% of his shots with an SMG ON A STATIONARY TURRET FROM 200 METERS AWAY.

I'm already mentally mapping out how the "tape a gun to your back to trick guards into thinking you're unarmed" mechanic would work.
