"I’ve lived with armed guards outside my home and have had to upend my family, go into hiding for months and repeatedly move."
-- Yoel Roth, former head of Trust and Safety at Twitter.
This is an incredibly powerful essay about what happens when the most powerful and visible people on the internet go after you.

I'm really angry at Nintendo for never hiring me, but I left before I began to hate Nintendo. XBox however, earned my hate in 2003 when Harte Hanks (who was doing XBox Live support for Microsoft) fired me for being trans.
If Nintendo was to get acquired by XBox, that'd be the end of my Nintendo gaming completely.
Oh Twitter. I guess let's do this again:

Anti-trans protests happened on Sept 20 in almost every major city in Canada. It’s fucking terrifying, to be honest.
Hate doesn’t stop by itself. It has to BE stopped.
You can help in small and big ways: change your user photo to this, explain why to your family and friends, and go support the side of diversity & equality on Sept 20.
Look around your corner of the country and you’ll find the counter-protest. Stand with them.

This is the most adorable Tails cosplay I've ever seen.
A lot of people are giving the Nintendo Switch port of MK1 a lot of flak.
I don't see a huge problem with the graphical difference, but that's because I don't consider the Nintendo Switch an actual console system. I consider it a portable system with a TV out. Like a more modern Super Game Boy.
So yeah, it looks terrible on an HDTV compared to a PS5. But when you're playing on a 6 inch screen on the bus during your morning commute, it probably looks fine for a portable version of the game.
