important reminder: if you are still engaging with the hp franchise you are hurting trans people. separate the art from the artist does not apply when the artist does this. putting nostalgia above human rights is a display of weak character. 🏳️⚧️
@cecililytweets Sinnoh having such a huge overlap between so many people is super interesting. The Sinnoh dex to me is the best, a lot of my faves are from there, so there is such a great roster. And yet so many people have at least half of the "Sinnoh 6"
@cecililytweets I also have "Hall of Fame" pictures I made in Photoshop. Your tweet really speaks to me on such a personal level. Gotta recreat this trend as well. I've played the Pokémon games thousands of times, but for each region there is a "canon" team
Daniel Radcliffe says that J.K. Rowling's transphobic comments left him deeply saddened:
“It makes me really sad, ultimately. Because I do look at the person that I met, the times that we met, and the books that she wrote, and the world that she created, and all of that is to me so deeply empathic.”
He confirmed that he has not had any contact with Rowling since she began making the comments and added that he would “continue to support the rights of all LGBTQ people”.
“Jo, obviously Harry Potter would not have happened without her, so nothing in my life would have probably happened the way it is without that person. But that doesn’t mean that you owe the things you truly believe to someone else for your entire life.”
“Transgender women are women. Any statement to the contrary erases the identity and dignity of transgender people and goes against all advice given by professional health care associations who have far more expertise on this subject matter than either Jo or I.”
@cecililytweets Being a sport is one thing. Being an AMERICAN sport event another. Of course Pokémon fans can be sport fans, too. And not only Americans watch the superbowl. However, Pokémon fans worldwide far surpass the amount of Pokémon fans watching the superbowl.
It would be really weird.
@cecililytweets I agree, because I noticed that on myself. When I first saw its Mega I really didn't like it. But once I understood it, it quickly grew on me, making it my favourite of the 3 starters.
Of course I still wish you could see the "good angle" way more often
but sure let's keep engaging with boy wizard stuff because why does it matter, right?
once more with feeling, your nostalgia doesn't matter. she is actively harming people.
@SerodyC@cecililytweets My reply was to you saying "why is this the first thing you think of" as if it's the ONLY thing. Besides, his sexuality & gender identity will not to be in the game REGARDLESS. There has been a lot of time to specualte about him. Why does it bother you to bring THIS up now?
