This is why I hate the “it has to be subtle!!!” Critique of queer media. The fact that we can’t just say what we are or what the character is is so reductive and constraining to so many queer writers. Don’t let cis people dictate how you show you identity. They don’t know what they’re saying.

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

It's even more angering to me when other trans people will see "cringe" trans art and say that it's "setting the community back" or "making us look bad". Actually transphobes are going to hate us no matter what, you're just miserable and want everyone else to hate themselves like you do

God I love live music so much. I saw Beast in Black tonight at Kentish Town forum and it has really lifted my spirits. Great crowd tonight too!

As part of the 2020 Nintendo Gigaleak, an email from Miyamoto to Rare was discovered outlining an idea for a change in Donkey Kong's character for his first fully 3D platforming game. This concept was ultimately scrapped, but the idea may have contributed to giving DK a weapon.

reminder: women, fictional or not, are allowed to dress sexy and revealing. the problem isn't inherently giving a character big tits, ass, and boob window. the problem is not making them a CHARACTER beyond that. people "fix" "goonerbait" designs by making women cover up and its very misogynistic

Three days in New York and I still haven’t run into Zohran yet. Like what’s the fucking point
