"Genes, Traits, and Identities: Navigating Sex, Gender, and Sexuality in Modern Research"
Frequently the trans and intersex communities are excluded from population-based genomics studies because they cannot be put in a neat box. But sex is a complex trait, like many other traits we study #ASHG25

Been trying out a new pub style dice game. It's called Crow's Nest. It’s a mix of Poker Dice, Yahtzee, ladder climbing, and some good deal of push your luck. Special thanks to @odddicegames.bsky.social for coming up with the name!

No matter what happens I’m so glad I got to be trans. I’m so proud that I figured out what was wrong with me and was brave enough to fix it. I’m so grateful I got to share myself with so many amazing people. I’m so blessed I got to look in the mirror and feel love for the person staring back.

I used to work at an after-school program where we taught games to kids, which informs some of who I design games for.
It’s a huge jump between games intended for parents to teach kids VS games intended for kids to teach kids. The different between them is communicated very poorly in the market.

Some of y'all have yelled at people for saying they won't vote for this guy—a man who wants to honor CHARLIE FUCKING KIRK BY CONTINUING "HIS WORK."
Never talk to me about this man again.

The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work: engage with each other, across ideology, through spirited discourse. In a democracy, ideas are tested through words and good-faith debate — never through violence.

This convo I had highlights the difference in what "respect your time" means in games.
A lot of players want to trade time for in-game progress. It's purely transactional: 1 hour = 1 progress
But I want to feel like my actions matter i.e. what I do with time creates progress, not time itself.

Should you care? When things are this far off parity, it feels like a sign that something is weird. You're probably not getting the best games you could be getting if design were being undertaken and published by a broader spectrum of people. (🧵5/6)

I know there’s no intent to release any more *span games, but an Insect-based Wingspan would be an insta-buy for me (as opposed to fish and dragons which interest me zero). Legspan?

1. My newest Anti-Trans Legal Risk Map is here.
Risk has increased sharply for youth in many states as clinics shutter under Trump and state AGs refuse to enforce civil rights laws.
For adults, some increases in risk.
Nationwide risk remains extreme.

Anyone here a pro at designing boardgames? I have this neat monetary system in Noss, and I wanna develop a game using these chips, but I wanna make sure it's balanced and complex and fun. If you have some ideas and are interested in helping craft this, let me know! The game is called Qu.

If you take a public stand for any social or political issue - ANY issue
Inevitably, many will swoop in to berate you for not standing for different issues.
Others will berate you for not standing up enough. Or "correctly" (ie. their way)
That's their problem, not yours.
Take a stand anyway.
