By the way, Shaun from Youtube uploaded a very good video about the absurd claims of the "GeNdEr cRiTiCaLs" that nobody knew about trans stuff before a few years ago, and that Terry Pratchett couldn't have known about trans people.

You should watch it.

Now, Shaun does a real good video, but something I'd add is that yes a lot of GCs think that trans issues just didn't exist until 2015 because (insert conspiracy theory here) and the reason for is simple:

The religious right lost on marriage equality and changed tactics.

Obergefell v. Hodges happened, and they immediately turned to trans people as the next target. They still wanted to stamp out LGBT rights as a whole, but just changed the messaging a bit. They even say so openly themselves: pinknews.co.uk/2018/12/07/ant…

CW: Rape

Let me be 100% clear about this so there can be no misunderstanding. Trans women need access to rape crisis centers and shelters because trans women are raped and sexually assaulted and face intimate partner violence at alarmingly high rates, and for NO OTHER REASON.

If you are the kind of ghoul who'll make absurd charges that trans women are trying to access services they need for sexual gratification or predatory reasons? YOU ARE A FUCKING MONSTER. You are a god damn monster who is making a case for systemic violence against victims.

I can't tell you just how much I hate having to speak out and be vocal on issues trans people face, because it is just exhausting, facing cruelty stacked upon cruelty, vile and dehumanizing rhetoric from sadists who take glee in the suffering of others. I loathe it.

Hey folks, I've just added DEATH TRASH to my Steam Curator page.

This one is also incredibly special, and perhaps one of the best times I've had in a game all year, it's fun in the way that only the best RPGs are.

I helped someone win a vomit contest!

Also, is "meatpocalypse" a word?

It is now I guess?

Incidentally, I really like writing these mini curator reviews, there's a challenge to getting across your best elevator pitch for a game in the strictly limited word count.

Then of course you have curators called wharrgarbl where every single review just says wharrgarbl

Hey folks, I have added Fuga: Melodies of Steel to my Steam curator page.

This seems to be slipping under a lot of people's radar, which is a pity, because it is without a doubt one of the best I've played all year. I highly recommend checking it out.

If you've not heard of this game, it's an extremely anime game where you play as a bunch of kids in a furry alternate France who commandeer a mysterious Howl's Moving Castle-esque tank to fight the invading Berman army. Yeah, it's a fantasy WWII setting like Valkyria Chronicles.

It's hard to compare the came to anything else, but the closest thing I'd compare it to is actually a linear Darkest Dungeon, where your Howl's Trundling Fortress moves left to right coming across different enemies or bonuses along the way with some branching paths.

Gotta get around to adding some more stuff to my curator page this evening, gotta add some real goodies.

This was a big omission, I don't know why I hadn't gotten around to adding Exodemon before, but it's there now. Extremely fast and fluid retro FPS. 👍

Lobotomy Corporation - Monster Management Simulation

God damn, here's a game I wish I'd gotten to sooner, it's god damn bloody terrific, and has me exclaiming "what the fuck? you little shit!" at weird nightmare monsters that eat my agents.
