ICE officers reportedly shot and wounded a man today in Austin. Details still coming in. www.statesman.com/news/local/a...
The horror has come to our city: ICE has shot a person in Austin this morning. As the facts emerge, I am demanding a full, independent investigation, immediate release of the body camera footage, and accountability for any ICE officer who broke the law.

So, for the non video game nerds: the top 3 hardest things to do in video games is 1. animate changing clothing 2. handing one item to another char 3. Lying under covers in bed. So from a technical perspective, this weird ass Strip Mahjong game is like writing Beethoven's 9th, but for gooning.
famitsu posted a video of what the stripping looks like in the new strip mahjong game and oh my god they're actually doing the fucking undressing without cuts

I can't think of anything that better demonstrates the NYT's institutional, ideological transphobia that even when they publish a "sympathetic" piece about the trans community, it makes sure to call every trans woman mentioned a manly male pervert who will never pass
M. Gessen has written a truly extraordinary piece about the "soft fascism" faced by transgender people in America, and by trans people in Kansas particularly. Beautifully written and reported, deeply humane. I really hope you'll read it. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/13/o...

1) it's not gender-affirming care when it's being foisted upon ppl w/o their consent. this policy is *invasive* 2) anti-trans GAC legislation is *also invasive* as it's designed to take away control of our own bodies. LET'S CALL IT INVASIVE! LET'S PROMOTE BODILY AUTONOMY RATHER THAN MAKING GAC JOKES

Today we have something special: a newly translated interview from July 1996 between Shigeru Miyamoto and Kenji Eno! Conducted just weeks after the launch of Mario 64, Eno takes Miyamoto to task (in a friendly way) with several fascinating critiques of its design. shmuplations.com/miyamotoxeno/

goddamn, dude.
seeing ppl discussing "male socialization" in regard to trans ppl. not sure what instigated it, but here's my best online essay on it (with a bit of “Trans Masc vs Trans Fem” discourse as a treat): on Medium: juliaserano.medium.com/on-male-soci... & Substack: juliaserano.substack.com/p/on-male-so...
