If anyone wants to get a worn out Texan trans man (on the brink of another bout of anemia) a slab of beef and a candy bar, I’ve got a Ko-fi right here ko-fi.com/bugpaws

If not, that’s fine too. We all gotta take care of ourselves.

tarot in general fascinates me so, guess im gonna be digging into it more for funsies

just some minor using UI and character design theory crafting

like
there's many a detail in lufel's AOA image that is, interesting. not mentioned at all, very strange. (phone, clock, power button symbol) etc

Thoth Tarot – Aleister Crowley Tarot — The World of Playing Cards Aleister Crowley Tarot – the sombre luminary – Crowley and Lady Frieda Harris worked on the illustrations between 1938 and 1943

was curious and went digging into what minor tarot the p5x revelation cards are based off of

its the Thoth Deck. which usually gets pulled in persona for rereleases and spin-offs.. 🤔

defending art's right to exist, especially nsfw art, inherenetly involves you having to allow art you don't like or even think is abhorrent or reprehensible to exist. you do not have to pretend to like it or engage with it, but you need to let it exist. you give fascists an inch they take a mile.

You need to call your reps and demand that they OPPOSE:

-the KIDS Act
-KOSA
-the Screen Act
-Sammy's Law
-the App Store Accountability Act

And additionally, oppose:

-reforming/sunsetting Section 230
-online age verification/ID laws

something that came up a lot in the organic censorship pushes (i.e. harassment campaigns on Tumblr and Twitter) was that once you've decided a type of fictional sex is dangerous enough that people shouldn't be allowed to depict it, you'll start to look for attempts to "sneak it in"

This + Ben's post

Japanese Companies are still afraid of the concept of US Unions and their contracts. unsurprising.

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.

Good on you, Dan Green

Love is a basic human right🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
Gender shouldn’t draw any lines.
Why does the world make something so natural feel so hard?
Let’s hold hands and shout it loud—love should be free for everyone.
love is love♡

To stop and muse, I wonder to what extent this might have been impacted by the general component shortages thanks to genAI.

As yeah presumably Nintendo is competing with everyone else for memory chips to use in cartridges. (Which I'm gonna guess is why the Switch 2 has been moving away from them)

I really don’t like it when people build something up by tearing something else down. If that’s your best way of recommending something, I’m not very inclined to check out whatever you’re trying to boost.

A reminder in stream chat etiquette that foreshadowing is also spoilers. Someone last night said “get tissues” and it instantly gave away what was about to happen taking away the surprise and emotion from the moment. Please have self control and let people experience things 😑

If you work in a creative industry, you *must* read this

“If you were a man, every one of those negatives would be in the positive column.” - My first performance review in games included as negatives: “personality is too big, too confident, asks too many questions”

Yes, there’s a double standard

Millions of Americans can now claim Canadian citizenship by descent. But they have to prove it | CBC News Amid rising tensions in the United States and increased global volatility, many Americans are looking to Canada — and their roots — for a possible way out following recent changes to Canada’s citizens...

Good news! Canada has removed the first-generation limit on claiming Canadian citizenship. Meaning if you can prove you have Canadian ancestors you can claim citizenship (after waiting for the extremely long federal government delays 🙃)

Thank you to all the people who are good at talking about random things for hours.

This tweet from Alex Hirsch will always be evergreen.

Disney and Pixar are complete fucking cowards.

All these who voted "yes" you have a chance to either contact them to try to convince them that these laws don't work or also vote against them so they don't get re elected

The fight is so neck and neck that a few reps could make a difference

Hidden at the end of this bill is its real purpose: defining trans existence as sexualized and a threat to children.

Added context: Nintendo is not alone. Other companies that have sued over Trump's tariffs recently include FedEx, UPS, Barnes & Noble, Costco, Revlon, Prada, Staples...

In terms of gaming companies, I haven't seen others

Trans cosplayers, at a glance Initial results from an informal survey about trans cosplayers in community, how we cosplay and our experiences across different cosplay activities.

I’m pleased to present my share-back from the “Experiences of Trans Cosplayers” survey I created last month. This share-back summarizes findings about trans cosplayers in community, how we cosplay and our experiences across different cosplay activities.

Shirtless in cosplay: A big moment for some trans and non-binary cosplayers.

Like many trans masculine people, after I had top surgery I was STOKED to cosplay a shirtless character for the first time. Unfortunately, my initial experiences were filled with transphobia, harassment that caused truly life-long body image issues. To hear that this is still happening to trans masculine people 15 years after my experiences is deeply concerning. So let’s talk about it.

I’ve thought long and hard about making this post but after seeing posts they have echoed my experience over the years as well as reading responses from the ‘Experiences of Trans Cosplayers Survey’ I decided I wanted to share this.

Being able to be your full self Cosplay is about expressing yourself, and for trans people it can be an extremely affirming space to express one’s gender in a way we may not feel safe or able to elsewhere. This is why preserving this safety is so important. And each and every one of us has a role to play in that. Be respectful. Call out transphobia. Uplift trans cosplayers.

Cosplay is about expressing yourself, and for trans people it can be an extremely affirming space to express one’s gender in a way we may not feel safe or able to elsewhere.

Be respectful.
Call out transphobia.
Uplift trans cosplayers.

I think this is a great argument, beautifully constructed

remember, anyone could be a stand user.

Transphobes are first and foremost misogynists. There is no such thing as a transphobic feminist. If they're willing to come after trans women, they will eventually come after all women.
