Heads up, the Jeremy Vine show are sniffing around trying to get a trans woman on their show to "debate" if the UK was right to try and take away our rights etc. Don't say yes if invited. It's a gotcha. They're aiming to set up a panel with multiple anti trans voices platformed as authoratative.

The Titanic VR experience, previously only on PC VR and PlayStation VR, is now available in Early Access on Quest 3 & Quest 3S standalone. Details here: www.uploadvr.com/titanic-vr-e...

Reminder to my fellow cis folks today - especially cis women - email your MP. Make noise. Tell them that you are disgusted and less safe because of the supreme court ruling. Tell them that you support trans people. Let them know that the loud bigots are not the majority. #UKPol

A request for my friends and followers: It's highly likely that a lot of burner transphobic accounts will pop up here today, gloating over the Supreme Court ruling. PLEASE DO NOT ENGAGE. It just encourages them. Give them the ignore, report, block treatment. And tag @hedgehogsafety.bsky.social

Trans men are men, trans women are women, non-binary folks are non-binary. No word of man or god will change my mind on this.

Bits of that supreme court ruling are simply false. Sex is objectively not binary; there are people who are in between. Biological characteristics are not plain, unambiguous or self-explanatory. This is a bunch of old people pretending science isn't true because they'd prefer the world to be simple.

This is where your Harry Potter money goes

Gimme cat says: Gimme Trans Rights.

Many of you will have no idea how tempting it is right now to just climb back into the closet. Pretend I'm a cis woman. Take down my non-binary flag, change my pronouns, hide my Pride badges. I hate this. I hate it I hate it I want to cry.

*punches a wall*

I'm still looking for writers for this!! Please HMU if you're interested in writing about arcade history. Even if you don't have a particular pitch in mind, feel free to email me with your areas of expertise in the space and I might just have a pitch for YOU!!!!

This is hilarious www.pcguide.com/news/modder-...

The RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti are official. The 5060 costs $299, while the 5060 Ti starts at $379 for 8GB of VRAM, or $429 for the 16GB variant. You should probably pay the extra fifty bucks for double the VRAM. www.tomshardware.com/pc-component...

WOAH WAIT WHAT

I assume cis people have to get one as well, since cis people are accused of being Trans ALL THE FUCKING TIME by bigots.

I'm a cis woman & don't have a GRC. I have been challenged in loos by transphobes. What am I meant to do in this situation? Honestly just make ALL loos & changing rooms gender neutral with lockable cubicles. But of course that wouldn't make the transphobes happy, because it's not really about loos

Think it’s fair to say Gamurs is to games media as Embracer is to publishing

Pleased to reveal the artwork for my 80's Movie and TV theme tribute album. Will be an E.P on it's way very soon for a taste of the full album :)

This is again reflected in those training materials we FOId and it's becoming a key plank of the attack of trans youth; reframing letting young adults pick their own fucking outfits as a medical intervention requiring clinical supervision.

Goth thread 🖤🕸️🦇 Post yourself in your goth fit or a goth you appreciate!

It's KokoroCon in only a few days! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Okay. Cosplay almost done. Playlist pretty much done. Still need to finish the PowerPoint slides for my panel, but that's mostly done too. Then I just need to Not Panic about being the warm-up act for Johnny Gioeli *breathes into paper bag*

At some point, I should try Skyrim again. Last time I was playing with a 3rd person mod. Followed what I thought the game wanted me to do and kept being turned into paste by a huge frost spider in the dungeon

Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

This is the kind of thing I see with universal basic income polling. Poll: "People would stop working if provided basic income independent of work." 45% agree 55% disagree Poll: "YOU would stop working if provided basic income independent of work." 4% agree 96% disagree

Absolutely fine with this kind of technology being used for the kind of mass data crunching and pattern recognition that would be impossible for humans. That's what it's for: automating tedium.
