This is really something every minority had to struggle with. I remember the 90's-00's had this exact conversation with black people on TV. The big issue is that minority groups have their own culture and circles that need representation, ones that cis people are largely unfamiliar with.

The answer to the trans representation problem is the exact same as any minority. Just let those minorities make stuff they want to make and consider that it might not be made for you. The question of "what's good representation" can only be debated among the ones being represented. Always has been.

Second, and unfortunately it needs to be said, the pandering angle only seems reasonable when it's targeted towards minorities. If a show is made by trans people for trans people, is a cis person playing in it pandering to cis viewers? You would sound insane arguing that. The "problem" is one-sided.

Ok so let's say you go all out: you write a proud, community involved, openly trans person that will outright reference they're trans more than once. On the surface this seems like pandering- giving the demographic a pat on the head to generate views. But a deeper dive reveals much more than that.

Let's say you put a trans person on screen with no real connection to trans culture and history: Well, your representation is lacking because you are actively avoiding the transness of this trans character. You effectively treat transness like a separate part of the person, a detachable side piece.

After much research I have perfected the theory of "AI as the One Ring". All AI techbros consistently fall under: - Knows it's bad, thinks they're just built different - Thinks it's inevitable and switches sides w/ no morals - Thinks it's his magic girlfriend - Evil CEO ruling over the rest of them

See this is good campaigning because hyperfixating on which type of apple is best for 3 minutes straight is about the most American thing you can do. You can completely tank your opponent's election by showing a clip of them saying "I dunno I guess I like the green ones."

Testing your game and finding a combo or interaction you never intended during play is definitely up there. Really makes you feel like you've *got* something.

Meet Chaos Elemental. It's one of the strongest cards you can start the game with, because it is a copy of a random card in the shop deck (which are stronger than starters on average). Thing is, if it becomes a Volatile Flame, you just gained a bunch of currency for free but also lost it forever.
