I’m not vocal about my politics, mostly since I don’t have much of a platform here. But let’s have no confusion:

I support all peoples’ human rights, regardless of demographic.
In games and other media, women, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, disabled folk, and others have been underrepresented.

@MarcusCVance The BreadTube strategy.

@GailSimone @boymonster I think the Brood might technically count, but…

@ohadelaide Stuff the neighbor into a box and leave him out on the lawn for a couple days.

@BDaveWalters “…I was once a man…”

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@ohadelaide What a dress!

@necrologies Every time the soulsword came out I did go “yes, that’s AWESOME.” (Actually, I liked pretty much all the actors and special effects. Bobby also looked great.) And even if Dani and Rahne’s attraction isn’t canon, I loved what a not a big deal it was treated as that it was sapphic.

@necrologies As somebody who is a fellow fan of the character but probably doesn’t know her as well as you do, I’m sorry it was such a failed portrayal for you. And now I’m going to recognize that I’m probably out of my lane and stop talking about it.

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@necrologies I didn’t mind that she was alienated and kind of hurtful, and I actually kind of liked Lockheed as Hobbes, but I can see that some of the particular ways they had her act out were thoughtlessly written. I get what you’re saying.

@ThighHighs Go go gender euphoria!

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@necrologies I would have believed either. I remember Black Mageweave Leggings.

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@necrologies Are those the “pants” or did you leave them off because they weren’t cute?

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@BDaveWalters @GailSimone told a great story on here about how it turns out that the actress who played Kung Fu Hustle’s landlady also played one of the schoolgirls who save Roger Moore’s ass in The Man with the Golden Gun.

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@dduane … “a” relationship?

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@necrologies There’s a book I picked up used somewhere that I’m very fond of, Luck of the Wheels by Megan Lindholm. I don’t remember how I found out but after an ex introduced me to the Liveship Traders, I was charmed to learn they’re the same person!

@ohmwu It’s definitely a bit older to use われわれ casually in conversation.

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@BDaveWalters I don’t give a LOT of 100s, but I do give them when people are really exemplary.

I usually tell my students that it’s hard to get an A but pretty straightforward to get an A-.

[Nevin Flanagan @NevinCodesGames]

@ProofreadJulia @dduane Yes, I do get the joke, but I can never see that without at least thinking to myself, “no, that’s an EXISTENTIALIST threat.”

@BDaveWalters He has a smidge more of the Louis Armstrong cheeks going on, although some of that is probably the beard.
