Back then, I actually said he was one of the most dangerous people alive due to the work his company was doing on computer chips in pig brains.

Turns out I was right. The man’s a real-life Gendo Ikari.

13 was a lot like 6 in that her expanded universe material is way, way better than her TV episodes. Seriously, if you haven’t read “Star Tales,” it has some of the most amazing Doctor Who stories ever, especially the one with Elvis, which made me weep.

And The Witchfinders has an amazing novelization that really dives into gender roles much deeper than the episode itself, thanks to 13’s inner monologue.

And the Doctor Who fanzine “More of the Universe” adds tons of stories that fix Thasmin, and it was endorsed by Jodie herself.

Chibnall is just really bad at writing the character, in my opinion.

I’m trans and I see where you’re coming from. I was boycotting the game ahead of launch because I didn’t want to support J.K. Rowling, who has based her career off of making our lives harder.

But…it’s been two years. We lost the battle. The boycott led to the Streisand effect and the game sold insanely well. Trans people got a ton of negative press converage. We were all made out to be intolerant and cruel because one trans person said something that made the GirlfriendReviews lady cry. It seemed like after that, GamerGate 2 went into effect and so many games with diversity are getting preemptively reviewbombed, like Dragon Age: The Veilguard, leading to layoffs and shuttered development teams, while games like Black Myth Wukong with a known sexist director are insanely popular.

Hogwarts Legacy seems like such a small issue now. Now it’s 2025 and we’re quickly losing all our rights in an ongoing Constitutional crisis. These days, while I’d prefer if cis people buy the game used and add disclaimers to the posts they make about it, I’m too exhausted to care about the Wizard game and who chooses to play it.
