Heya folks. We’ve had to take out a couple loans to cover some unforeseen expenses. Any and all help via either of these sale options would be very helpful to get us back caught up with these loans. HMU if interested in the $10 sale or half-off Full Color Scenes!

When this game was first announced, I wasn't quite sure how I felt about her because I didn't really like her voice... until it finally hit me that she's an accessibility feature. It reminded me of the blind fan that mailed Nintendo thanking them for making a game they can play

It's pretty clear why this happened. Valve bit off more than they could chew. They likely thought an MVM update would simply amount to another copy and paste job from the community workshop (hence the 2 month deadline for new maps, and a tease for a Halloween release of...something in the blogpost). I have eyes. It says this.

Then, it didn't happen. Why? Uh oh, all the new flashy maps uploaded to the workshop had no robot waves- there was no mechanism by which to ship waves (lol), because valve never anticipated for the community to make this type of content for them! Plus, they quickly realized they would have to actually playtest everything, especially if they're planning on monetizing whatever they ship. This fact alone contradicts the update model they've been upholding. If the past decade has shown me anything, Valve only manages below the bare minimum for TF2. They certainly don't playtest anything. There's hardly content curation. Dump and go.

Now we're waiting indefinitely for what I truly think might amount to another heavy update: I think they just dropped it. It'll never come. It quickly become too much work, and the radio silence will eventually drag us out into compliance (as they did with bots, a lack of major updates, etc. etc.).

Pessimistic and cynical, I know. I would love an amazing, competent TF2 update, like we used to receive. I'm hope I'm wrong, I'll happily eat crow if I am! But if the last decade has shown me anything, I'm not holding my breath.

Thankya for the support!

It’s such a simple edit but it kills me every time

[dille @flurryfrenzy]

The thing is Thomas legitimately does have some interesting stuff baked within to analyze. Like for a kids show it's surprisingly level-headed and doesn't talk down.

But at the risk of sounding like this I don't talk about it often lol

@flurryfrenzy Reminds me that in Mario Kart Wii to unlock Rosalina you can either:
A) Play for 100 hours
or
B) Play for 30 and have Mario Galaxy save file

May be a controversial opinion from what I'm seeing online but I think Jax is actually good trans representation for what people are actually like when they try to repress instead of accepting themselves. I have been openly trans for about a decade, was on hormones for almost a full year, and one of the best things you can do for yourself when you're like that is meet other openly trans people. And because I've done that, I can confidently say, a lot of repressed trans people, are HUGE PIECES OF SHIT before they come out. I wanna be clear, this is by no means the universal experience, because being trans like being human is not a universal experience.

I knew a trans person who before they came out was a huge racist because they fell into the 4Chan trap. I knew a few who were mysoginists and incels before they came out. A lot of repressed trans people have a tendency to fall into bad crowds that feed the worst parts of them. And Jax is a perfect example of what happens when you try to deny, repress, and smother a part of yourself. When you try everything you can to ignore it. To snuff it out. Oftentimes, hurting ourselves hurts the people around us more than we intend to, realize, or even see.
I found Jax to be such a fucking refreshing change for trans rep because they weren't the fuckin butt of a bad joke. They weren't some "you had sex with a man" joke or "ladyboy" like I often see in the media or some snowflake "it's ma'am" joke. Jax wasn't some cis character that was YEARS LATER retconned into being trans. Jax wasn't literally a man wearing wearing a tutu or dress like I see in anime. Jax wasn't a femboy or a trap. They weren't sexualized or fetishized. They were just a person, struggling with two parts of themselves that couldn't find common ground. And that is by far, THE BEST TRANS REP I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE. They were so relatable and even the parts I didn't specifically relate to, I knew actual people who could and had gone through those phases in their life.

Jax isn't bad representation. You just don't know enough trans people to see the parts that resonate with people. And if you still don't believe it, the creator has confirmed it multiple times.

Jax, I know we don't get along, But I think I might have found a way to get you on estrogen.

Let's see how people defend this one. No slurs. No insults. I want to know what part of making medicine more expensive for the world at large does in benefiting anyone that isn't in the 1%
