You are safe to clock me. I'd actually hate it if another trans person noticed that I was trans and decided *not* to talk to me for that reason. I want my people to notice me. Reskeet this if you're proudly and gladly clocked.

The debate over whether this is 'fascism' is a silly semantic one in which a small minority mean 'completed fascist authoritarianism' and the vast majority mean 'the people in power say and do things that demonstrate completed fascist authoritarianism is what they want to achieve.'

There is a trend of video game narratives where women are prominent to be overly focused on motherhood and the 'natural' nurturing urges we're all supposed to harbor. It happens even when the woman in question wears power armor and blasts aliens with a giant arm cannon.
The entire fandom’s (and Retro Studios) initial assumption: “Oh she hunts down the baddest monsters in the galaxy and gets paid for it, right?”
Nintendo: “What? No. She’s like humanity’s motherly guardian. What are you talking about.”

If you love someone, tell them.
If you miss someone, reach out.
If you can spend time together, do it.
One day, you’ll wish you had more of those moments.

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line.

There’s no such thing as the “genuinely disabled”
Disability is dynamic
Some disabilities are invisible. Some change day to day
You won’t always know a person is disabled unless they tell you
It’s a minority group you can join at any time, not a moral failing.
