Remember it is absolutely ok and necessary to unplug.

This news can retraumatize and you can absolutely step away and take care of your immediate needs.

We won’t let this news die down. I won’t at least.

Please care for yourself and if you need emotional support please DM.

If I can listen, make space, witness or just talk about anything else with you I’m 100% here and available. Bandwidth might be tight as I’m in the middle of prepping for a cross country move to NYC but I can make time.

DMs are open.

This industry IS changing. There are more women owned studios than ever before.

I as a public hyper visible pre-HRT trans woman of color got her first game industry job just this April 2021 which was full time, salaried with stock options and wasn’t lowballed.

This is not at all to minimize the deep harm and violence already done along with the pain that will be with many victims for long time, but it is a reminder that change is here and I will do everything in my power to have that be exponential.
