Also as a singular fact.
I thought Mau Mau was a name the Bri*ish imposed on Kenyan resistance groups rather than a name they used themselves?
For the "trans internet personality gets blockbuster role" prediction, who we thinking? Abigail Thorne?
Bioware says that despite that reputation, the vast majority of players still played men.
Which is weird to me because the reputation is totally deserved. Granted, Mark Meer was pretty alright by ME3, but still
He was convicted on one charge recently
3 Houses is also interesting in that, like, you can make a solid case that Ingrid is gay but is restricted by her society's expectations for what it means to be a crested noble, especially a woman crested noble.

My actual preference is characters having actual sexualities with comparable options for all, but failing that I'll take playersexuality
I'm not seeing family today because we're Jewish. But Thanksgiving was hard. I'm the only antizionist in my family, my parents and brother are sympathetic, but the rest of my family are raging zionists- my cousin actually fucking moved to Israel and proudly participated in recruitment propaganda. It was a lot
Just for fun, I'm gonna go for the long shot and say Mia Moore's movie is gonna be an unexpected breakout hit and it'll be her.
Hell, Thorne's in that movie too so it could even be a twofer
