For the first time in... probably a few years, honestly, I'm actually happy with where I am.
I'm accepting myself and my identity more, I'm figuring out how to live with what I've got, and I'm super pumped about my hobbies again!

So I thought about why they went with the original All-Stars and not the combination All-Stars + Super Mario World version of the ROM. Fun Fact: That ROM was never released in Japan. So in all likelihood it was probably easier/cheaper for them to write up only material related to this one version.
This is one of the funniest things to me because it was literally the SNES ROM of All-Stars that isn't even the version with SMW in it with no noticeable alterations slapped onto a Wii disk with a CD and a book and they wanted you to pay $40+ for it

Surely, that one Popeye cartoon must have inspired Donkey Kong's barrel-throwing and barrel-jumping... right?

Unused Eggman animation from Knuckles' Chaotix. It's not known for sure when this would have appeared, possibly in level six or seven.

I've already spoken to my local MP this morning about this, and would urge allies to email/contact them too, as the damage this will cause, especially if ghoulishly linked to Brianna will be immense. Access to online trans and trans-friendly communities save lives when others and family fall short.
Brianna Ghey was targeted by classmates who knew her offline. Online, she made friends and a community, and was making content to help other trans kids like her.
This is a grieving mother pushing for legislation that would have further isolated her trans child, that is supported by transphobes.

I'm very cold and in need of help
A lot of progress but still a ways to go for the month.
I'm disabled, homebound, and at this time of year, I'm even more vulnerable. I need help to survive the winter.
