Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been dealing with, among other things, a mouse infestation (dealt with now, no, thanks to my cat), and dental work (stitches in the mouth is not fun).

I've got another dental thing in May and then hopefully things will calm down for a bit.

Save 91% on Animal Rescuer on Steam

Animal Rescuer is helping lovely animals through exploring an epic world with faster gameplay and increased quest and combat intensity.

I don't know if it's any good, but it's so cheap it's worth trying out I think.

Im gonna be so real can yall actually talk about ways we can support trans women in the UK instead of giving all the attention to fucking JKR. I already know that Harry Poter sucks, I wanna know how to actually HELP people. Something something you have to love the oppressed more than you hate the oppressor

[snowonthebeachmp3]

trans actual uk - trans led and run advocacy, education and empowerment organisation

fiveforfive - collective fund for trans women and girls and transfem causes

gendered intelligence - trans led advocacy org

mermaids - supports trans youth

akt - lgbtq youth homelessness charity

loving me - domestic abuse service for trans people in england

not a phase - for trans adults

[matamatoki]

Here's some from Wales

Trans Aid Cymru - supporting trans people in wales

Queer Emporium - hub of queer businesses and events

And ones who operate in Wales but also across the UK

TIN Wadrobe - supplying clothes for trans and gnc people

G(end)er Swap - resources and events for trans style and gender expression

[severalowls]

Adding some from Scotland I have experience with and afaik take donations, some are broader but with good trans inclusion:

Scottish Trans - Trans advocacy, information and social events. Run by the Equality Network, a broader Scottish LGBTQI advocacy group.

LEAP Sports Scotland - Sports charity that advocates for queer inclusion in sports, runs trans sports groups (Trans Active) in at least Glasgow and Edinburgh that I can absolutely recommend.

LGBT Health & Wellbeing - Not trans specific but includes trans specific, trans led and trans inclusive support and social events, and supports a variety of smaller community-run subgroups.

And another couple UK-wide:

Gender Identity Research & Education Society - Trans led charity supporting research on trans matters and education/training on trans inclusion. Does consultancy for public and private sector organisations.

Trans Kids Deserve Better - Trans advocacy and activist group led by and for trans kids. They do good work.

[diversegaminglists]

I've been struggling to do much of anything lately because I had to swap to a different form of antipsychotic due to a shortage of the modified release one.

My brain is working better, but I'm exhausted, and it's very hard to get out of bed.

International Women's Day

Reminder that includes all women.

[renthony]

People of tumblr, help me out. I'm trying to make a list of video games that:

- Have options that let you make an intersex player character

- Have a canon intersex character in the cast

- Have options that let you make a character who has tits, a beard, AND be fat. Do not say Baldur's Gate 3 like people keep trying to tell me. You cannot be FAT in Baldur's Gate 3. As much as I love that game, the fatphobia is one of the things that really bums me out about it.

[diversegaminglists]

I have a list for intersex characters, but it's pretty sparse: https://diversegaminglists.fandom.com/wiki/Intersex_Characters

I also have a list with CC options for fatter characters, but it also needs updating: https://diversegaminglists.fandom.com/wiki/Positive_Fat_Representation_in_Games

Guess who bought mewgenics without looking at the cast list.

Seeing if I can get a refund, but I might not be able to at this point.

[diversegaminglists]

I got the refund, apparently "didn't disclose the cast list" counts as a valid reason.

[diversegaminglists]

It looks like the game also used gen AI to scrape and alter some of the voices. As someone has noticed that Selena is credited as a voice actress. She was murdered in 1995.
