Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful.

Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

A screenshot from the Yorkshire games website. Alongside a picture of kitty, the text reads 'Kitty Crawford (she/her) Freelance Creative Producer. A Plucky Puzzle โ€“ a curiosity and human-centered approach to video game production

Follow Kitty as she takes you through her experience as a freelance producer on her latest release (among some others), where she shows that the process of a designer and a producer aren't all that different, just their target audience. Kitty will go through her steps of pipeline building from initial investigation, puzzle solving and testing, to successful deployment, that have lead to her creating accessible productions that allow all developers from any background to great amazing games โ€“ including her own bedridden phase.'

Back in my day, AI used to stand for Adobe Illustrator! And we hated that, too!

Placeholder assets should scream 'placeholder' at you.

Obvs the ethics etc should be enough to make you not wanna touch it at all...

A little reminder; ethics aside it's not a good idea to use AI for placeholder stuff. If something looks "good enough" its easy for it to slip into the final product. Placeholder stuff needs to LOOK placeholder so its obvious it needs replacing.
Lorem ipsum and Paint doodles are perfect placeholders

You will internalize all the mean stuff you say about yourself, even if you say it in jest. Good news: you can also pretend you're great and treat yourself with compassion and internalize that instead. Ask me how I know!

People respond well to it too, they wanna root for you!!

The rot at the heart of British culture that allows something like todayโ€™s Supreme Court ruling to be madeโ€ฆ

Boycott Rowling. Teach your dad about pronouns. Withhold your vote from politicians who donโ€™t vocally support trans rights. Fund trans artists and creators.
