Life is for the living, and living must be in pursuit of joy, or else even if you dedicate your life to avoiding pain you are still centering your life on your pain.
I'm done living that way. I am trans because I chose to fight for my own better world, and we can win a better world for all of us. 🏳️⚧️

There's a misconception I see a lot wrt to the social model of disability and disability pride more broadly that when we say these things we mean that disability isn't real or that our impairments don't cause real problems for us.

this isn’t my MOST woke opinion but it is one i’m passionate about:
borders shouldn’t exist and there should be complete freedom of movement globally. fuck visas. get rid of them

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Trans women are biologically female and our medical needs make a lot more sense if we are conceptualized as having essentially an extreme form of hyperandrogenism

GDQ's upcoming event, Games Done Queer, has already become a fierce rallying cry of support for LGBT rights in the US: 'We had 450 hours of content submitted for the 36-hour show'
"We're here, we're bigger than you think we are, and we can band together when it's important."

Films are categorically easier to archive in a usable state than video games. Yes Nintendo has made game preservation harder, and that sucks, but Miyamoto is right to say that games eventually stop running.
Emulation is hard and porting is hard. Copying film? Comparatively, quite easy.

that's... that's the point. it takes legitimate work to preserve a game across platforms (or even across long-term changes in the same platform), which then has to be repeated for the next one, indefinitely. preserving a film in most cases means running maybe ffmpeg on it once every 20 years
The only reason games aren't "forever" is because they refuse to preserve them. I can buy a film from 1939 in 4K but fuck me if I wanna play Twilight Princess on my Switch.

Harry Potter is a book series I have very strong emotional ties to. I don't talk about it very much at all for what I hope are obvious reasons, but some of my earliest memories are my parents reading the books to me. I learned to love reading with these books.
I promise you can move the fuck on.

A recent study found that children who transitioned young retained stable gender identities over time. But the fact that nearly a fifth of those in the group did not ought to give advocates of irreversible medical interventions pause
How stable are the gender identities of younger children?

This is not the case, but let's assume that all trans people are captured in that "80%" of youth who "transition young". Now let's say that 20% of people who transition young are actually cis and discover this later.
