With sexual assault being so prominent in the news I wrote this short piece. I hope it brings light to the average woman's experience of sexual violence.

When I was 17 my friend told me she'd been raped. She was drunk at an event and a friend took her outside and raped her. It was 2007 and I didn't have empathy for her. She often got drunk and flirted with guys. She was beautiful and liked the attention. It was bound to happen eventually. I didn't have empathy for her rape, because I didn't think it would happen to me. Or at least, if it did, it would be one of those lesser rapes like when your boyfriend does it, or when you end up saying yes because it's easier than saying no.

I first wrote a version of this essay when I was 24 and at that time I said I was the only woman I knew that hadn't been raped. That was a lie, but I didn't know what it was. I mean there was that one time when I continually said no to my boyfriend and he penetrated me anyway, but I carried on then so it's essentially fine. And there was that time I had a horrendous UTI, but it was my 19th birthday and he said it was his birthday present to me, so I just bore through the pain to receive my gift because I didn't want to make him feel bad about not getting me anything. But ya know, that's just part of being a woman isn't it?

My sister once said to me, "you've probably been raped and don't remember it. Men tend to just do that." The statement was ridiculous to me, a woman that had definitely not been raped. When my friend woke up and saw her friend violating her unconscious body and the police took us to a cabin in the woods so she could have a rape kit and then they arrested the guy, though she dropped the charges because it's not worth ruining his life over and he probably got the message from the arrest anyway. That was like a proper rape and that hadn't happened to me.

What had happened to me was more like what had happened to my friend when we were 14, where she got black out drunk at a house party and her boyfriend carried her to a local park, sat her on a bench and sexually assaulted her. It's something that feels icky, like you know th…

You can't buy indulgences from trans people that give you Special Permission to enjoy Harry Potter shit. We're not a church, that's not how any of this works. You can *do* whatever you want, but you have to shoulder the ethical burden of enriching a virulent transphobe on your own.

Epic pays for licensing fees for the games they give away for free as promotions. Which means even if YOU aren't paying for it, you're giving money to JK Rowling to harm transgender people AND elevating her stature by giving her franchise higher numbers. NO TERF WIZARD GAME. NO TERF WIZARD SHOW.

i'm not a huuuuge anime guy but one thing i'll never get sick of seeing is when games try recreate anime OPs in engine. i love the look of trying to recreate a 2D aesthetic using 3D assets and moving sprites. it's so cool seeing what they choose to keep or change. this is Cowboy Bebop's on the PS2

So I have zero faith in cis people not watching the Harry Potter show. I expect it to make bank. I need to be crystal clear: if you breathe 1 word about paying for it, recommend it, I will resent you until I'm in the ground, and make sure every trans person in your life knows you can't be trusted.

I'll repeat what I said years ago: if Umamusume is your first character raising sim and you find that combo of planning and gameplay-driven, cause and effect storytelling engrossing, good news: there's a whole world of classics awaiting you. For example, you're now ready for Tokimeki Memorial. 😌

Tokimeki Memorial's one and only Shiori Fujisaki rejecting your offer to walk home together after school because she's afraid of the rumors that'll sprout up... even though you two are literally next-door neighbors. It's a rite of passage that every player goes through during every run. Hang in there champ, she'll say yes before too long.

The stat screen of Tokimeki Memorial, displaying a variety of characteristics about your plucky character. Evidently for this week, the player chose to hang out with Yoshio, your friendly neighborhood info broker on the girls, even though it's days before Christmas and hopefully this player has a date scheduled with SOME girl because as nice as Yoshio is, listen, he's not Christmas Day Quality Time Material and we all know it, including him. Even his sister, who you could probably be spending time with instead would say this. Yoshio is at best a third wheel in your budding relationships and someone who should know better about staying in his own lane.

A comic in which a miniature dachshund, Frankie, searches for a mouse (that was trapped and removed while he watched). The comic is not very good.
