I think having infinite "personalized" art to mindlessly consume would feel very lonely and sad

Formal affordances are the elements that pull a player toward certain actions, they “cry out” for the player to take those actions. Material affordances are the actions a system actually allows the player to take. Agency occurs when the two are in balance. (Mateas 2001)

THE CLANS HEIR IS A TRANS WOMAN (2013) is like Steven Seagal decided to Write/Direct/Star in a love letter to his trans friends, but it looks and feels like every action movie he's made... except Hitoshi Ozawa is way way way way cooler than Seagal.

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

As I’ve said before, people told me “you can just be a woman if you want to.” What they did not tell me, and what I’ve discovered the past few years of my transition, is that you have to *keep* becoming her

I would simply like to live my quiet little life as a trans woman and buy fruit and sing and walk my dog and wave to my neighbors and watch movies and use restrooms without being the subject of a culture “war” where both political parties agree I’m a disgusting freak who doesn’t deserve civil rights

It's the simplest thing, these little videos, to show that government is working, and more to the point, working for you. It kicks the teeth out of that old Reaganism about how the scariest statement is "I'm from the government and I'm here to help."

Notice the concern of parents who feel their trans children are being victimized never get listened to. It's only bigots. "Respect the parents" is a shell game.

Musk targets trans people for many reasons. Because he thinks it works. Because he thinks it enrages Republicans and depresses everyone else. Because he wants to torture his own child. Because he wants the message to be that the only safe political move is to join in the torture of his own child.

Eye-wateringly stupid defence from Rowling’s team here - ‘She does not support legal actions aimed at harming transgender people.’ - Really? So that £70,000 towards the bathroom ban was by accident? The JKR Women’s Fund was made by an impersonator? At least have the spine to admit you want us dead

In my opinion Democrats get nothing nothing NOTHING by betraying trans people. They hurt themselves with a good deal of their committed voter base, and still don’t get the Republican votes they are so fucking obsessed with winning over. Lose-lose! People hate voting for squishy moral cowards!!

This is a result of very effective propaganda. It's ~5% of GDP. The majority of its use cases have alternatives already; those that don't, are being researched. Its most likely long-term use during/post-transition is plastics and lubricants. Needed, but not ahead of a thousand other things.
