Four panels that show a woman gradually transforming into a pirate in each panel new restrictions to her streaming service are listed such as this streaming service will now have ads. This show isn't available on this streaming service. This show is only available for rent or purchase this show requires an add-on subscription. Gradually the woman goes from looking like a regular person then she has an eyepatch the next panel she has a pirates shirt and jacket the last panel. She has a pirate hat.

My evolving relationship with streaming. 🏴‍☠️

Excerpt from On Prurient Matters, an essay by Wendy Carlos about people being weird about her being trans. It's on her website. "Here's a postscript. By now you may have gathered I'm sometimes the target of individuals who otherwise may seem to be normal, humane adults. Their uncool smirkings and inability to treat me as much more than a cliché says far more about them than it ever could about me. Ironic? Too bad they don't realize it yet; they'd chill out. I guess folks like me just trigger their worst, those minefields waiting for whomever doesn't meet a narrow seal of "approval". They are compelled to show off their smugness, and in so doing hang themselves in the process for everyone else to see, once you're tipped off to it. It seems that I am a barometer. This is why I suggest you can use me to benchmark any dormant cruelty or lack of compassion in a person you wish to know more about -- a potential friend, or lover, or even a business partner. Check them out. Try the Wendy Test (probably they've never heard of me, and so the test is invalid before it begins. Oh well, invent a similar test of your own, I can't do everything... ;-) See if they are pretty comfortable in their own personhood and especially in their sexuality. See if they've matured into empathetic adulthood yet. Or note those unable to climb up from that giggly self-conscious immaturity that allows kids to behave at times like little monsters, firmly rooted in the ego-centered subjectivity of a new baby. You may be surprised by what you learn..."

I think about this passage on her website a lot.

"When my daughter defied the Correct Natural Trajectory I laid before her, I 'corrected' her sir. And when my wife tried to prevent me from keeping our daughter on the Correct Natural Trajectory, I 'corrected' her."

Let's fucking GOOOO

Given the UK cites a lack of evidence for giving injections I for one welcome such studies even if they are frustratingly slow to cotton on to the bleeding obvious

i swear to god if he's STILL bitter that the Legacy of Kain series sucked ass until he was kicked off and a woman was put in charge...

Guys stop asking Denis Dyack why he hasn't made anything in 15 years. He has to wait until the unnecessarily long and unskippable resurrection cutscene plays after his most recent fuck up

Oh hey it's that guy who's incapable of making good games unless Nintendo's yelling at him. Definitely the kind of bloke people should be listening to and taking seriously.

Hilary Cass has no experience in trans medicine, has never worked with trans kids. Now there are trans kids dead because Wes Streeting banned trans kids' healthcare on the basis of her already discredited "review".

Now she's targeting trans kids in education, another field she has no experience in.

Trans rights are a great litmus test for candidates -
Do they believe in bodily autonomy?
Do they believe in science?
Do they like women and believe women are capable adults?
Do they have weird religious hang ups about sex and gender?
Are children people?
Etc

There's a word for the specific form of psychological abuse in which transphobia is disingenuously portrayed as concern, caution, or scientifically rigourous evidence:

I can't mind who it was I saw posting about how Bad And Wrong it is that people refer to music on old consoles as using "soundfonts" but I just saw a video saying that the Mega Drive and SNES versions of The Lion King "had different soundfonts" and I too am screaming!

Furries are incredible.

A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live. "This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario." The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. John Default Profile Picture: "No one read this statement and thought it was distasteful? Why did Miyamoto think this would help anyone?" NintenDeen: "Simple: Nintendo is so depraved that they'd exploit a global crisis to boost the player count of the failed Mario Kart World and force consumers back into the Switch 2 ecosystem to boost sales and player numbers."

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. PlayStation Nation: "What the fuck are you doing falsely advertising sales during these trying times? I went to the website and Mario Kart World is still selling for $80 USD." Kremling Kevin: "If you actually read the statement, it clearly says the discount is available on Nintendo eShop. Meaning the application on the Switch 2 itself, not the web browser version." PlayStation Nation: "Point still stands."

A fabricated Tweet responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. Isaboner: "Nothing for Switch 1 owners?"

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

Any politician using the Cass Review to justify anything is dishonest, especially Bridget Phillipson.

It is un-peer-reviewed pseudoscience that has been, & will continue to be, discredited by multiple peer-reviewed publications all of which have more credibility than Cass.

You know, it never even occurred to me to check if there was a precedent for women Alan Smitheeing their credit. Turns out Mary Lambert took an Alan Smithee credit for an episode of Red Shoe Diaries, while Rita Horst was credited as Ellen Smith for the movie Eep!
