What is up with the "mu escape from reality argument" these g*mers like to use?
I get wanting to escape from the hellhole we live in but why is it so disturbing for you to find transpeople in your games? Are you implying that their mere existence makes you uncomfortable? Is this just a massive self report?
Yes
Me when the story telling organization's imagination isn't meticulously curated to be a clear prism that takes in ideas from the ether without interpreting them based on lived experience, understanding of the world, or any other interaction with reality
Except Tetris kind of for some reason.
Yes, in the same way "I wanted to escape to a fantasy world but WOMEN have JOBS here" is a self report
