bradofarrell:

This year at E3 during the Xbox panel during a scripted “trash talk” bit someone made a scripted rape joke (male gamer to girl gamer who sucks at a game: “just wait, it’ll all be over soon.”) and then they acted like it wasn’t a big deal and then they released an expensive, anti-consumer (DRM on physical games) piece of hardware. And then Sony just released the PS4 which is just the PS3 but better graphics and $100 cheaper than the Xbox. So THAT happened.

But then Nintendo just quietly released a bunch of great looking sequels for all of it’s major franchises (Mario, Pikmin, Donkey Kong, and Smash Bros.) and every single one of those games interestingly features playable female characters who haven’t been seen in decades like Dixie Kong and Princess Peach - and Pikmin now has a new female hero.

One of my favorite things about Peach in the new Mario game is that one of the power ups is a literal “cat suit” and Peach’s “cat suit” doesn’t sexualize her at ALL. You can’t even see her boobs. She just looks like she’s wearing over-sized footie pajamas it’s so cute. Also they added a pink letter to the Mario logo just to accommodate Peach’s re-inclusion into the franchise as a character with actual agency!

So at the end of the presentation they tell you to go to the Smash Bros website to find out about new characters. And then they announced this character, Wii Fit Trainer, on the site. And in an interview the director said he gets thousands of requests for almost every video game character under the sun and he’s gotten absolutely zero requests for this character and he put her in the game to be funny and defy fan expectation. This character is literally “hey fuck you we’re the ones making the games around here, and we’ll be goofy and funny if we want to and also check it out another female character in Smash.”

Also the inclusion of the Animal Crossing villager is interesting because Animal Crossing is VERY popular with girls and even though the villager is male I’m 100% certain his alternate costumes will include the girl default villager character. So that’s neat. The three Smash characters they announced were two girl(ish) characters from two girl(ish) games and then Mega Man.

Also in the new Animal Crossing game boys are allowed to cross dress and all of the animals are explicitly genderqueer in the dialog. Characters say stuff like “Boys can ware make up if they want to, I mean, it’s 2013, who cares?” and just today a jock rhino was looking deeply into my eyes and asking me to hike a football and I asked him if he loved me (which was one of the option out of other options about sports) and he was like “Oh I guess a lot can happen when you look into someone else’s eyes like that, huh?” He didn’t even care that we’re both guys. Also in the new Pokemon game you can be black.

Basically what I’m saying is Nintendo is quietly and systematically making their games more socially progressive and Microsoft made a rape joke and then said “what? it was a joke.”

I think I've read somewhere that you like musicals, but do you like opera ? ^^

Fri, 31 May 2013 11:41:36 -0400

I can’t really say either way, my realm of experience with opera is very limited unfortunately. <:) I only ever saw a couple of them when I was younger and couldn’t really appreciate them yet (I have vague memories of Egyptians in Aida, but I have no idea what the plot was in retrospect).

I have a healthy respect for opera and I’d love to have the chance to see one again now! But I just haven’t seen enough to form an opinion. :)

hibikikuze:

some brief incomplete notes abt the fucked up ways ppl on tumblr treat bl as a genre and its fans

its awful and shallow and horrible for featuring queer sexual relationships, bc that means its just for horny women to get off to right lmfao!!!! never mind that womens sexuality is already denigrated to hell and back by society and that by treating bl, a genre aimed primarily at women, as worthless you are putting down womens interests and womens sexuality in exactly the way society already loves to i.e. by treating them as meaningless by default regardless of actual content bc they are for female consumption

not to mention the implication that queer sexual relationships themselves are only about sex, which is also hella common in society; queer ppl are regularly reduced to “GAY SEX!!!” and whether you intend it or not comments like “bl is just abt porn lmfao” stink of the same sentiment

all women who enjoy bl are FETISHIZING HOMOSEXUALITY AND SHOULD BE VILLAINIZED AND TREATED AS HOMOPHOBIC SCUM despite the fact that plenty of ladies who like bl are queer themselves and personally relate to these relationships, characters, and stories

all women who enjoy bl are FETISHIZING HOMOSEXUALITY AND SHOULD BE VILLAINIZED AND TREATED AS HOMOPHOBIC SCUM because its so much easier to use pseudo-sj language to attack women and teenage girls on the internet for exploring sexuality in a safe and relatively harmless way than it is think critically about the intense pressures w/in society that prevent both straight and queer women from learning about and exploring sexuality otherwise. its so much easier to make text posts about how horrible Yaoi Fangirls are than it is to reflect on societal expectations of female sexuality

in conclusion, lay the frick off bl if you arent going to criticize it or its fans in any meaningful way; there are plenty of valid criticisms of the genre and the fandom to be made so go make those instead of being edgy fake sj

Yesss.

Okay, so I came across the cutest lgbtq webcomic yesterday called Tripping over you, and it’s just the best. If you haven’t already, I suggest checking it out!

Milo belongs to Suzana and Owen

//sobs// I hope I did this cutie justice ;A;

Ohgosh, and then some♥♥ This is so cute, thank you!♥ c:

Will there be an option at some point for people who found the comic after the Kickstarter to order books?

Tue, 21 May 2013 11:32:00 -0400

Absolutely! We’ll have a shop set up in the next month or two once we’ve mailed out the KS rewards - we’ll start selling the books, prints, t-shirts, and some extra stuff. Fortunately we’ll be able to accept a few more payment options at that point, too, as we’ve heard a lot of people had trouble with Amazon payments. :)
