I like playing games with high amounts of replayability/customizability (meaning roguelikes, mostly, but also rhythm games), and sometimes also automation sims since I like programming so much that I do that professionally.

I am not sure how to change that, but if we don't want to be fighting as an insurgency that probably needs to be fixed, and if we do want that, we at least need to start picking fights that start hitting their credibility and comfort, like aggressively going after journal paper and tenure retraction and at the very least, making enough noise that none of these people can sleep. There is only a handful of them -- far less than there are trans people.

And we are slowly running out of things to lose.

but either way, it requires force concentration on the points that matter, the points that are most critical for their command-and-control structures for these random PACs and law firms that somehow all have 12 million dollar war chests for orgs of 15 people, writing fill-in-the-blanks papers for sham journals and legislature packages for republican state senators.

but the time to build cross-state orgs and the infrastructure for coordinating a movement is sooner rather than later. we've got trans scientists, lawyers, writers, politicians, strategists, tacticians, analysts, journalists, researchers, publishers. We've got trans construction workers, truckers, drivers. we've got trans people in ag, in retail, in food, in the whole fucking supply chain. Plumbers and electricians. Information security professionals and hobbiests.

Being trans is so widespread that we're in every industry -- we just need to figure out how to use that together BEFORE the coordination is needed.

I don't, I just know zinnia has been covering the papers in depth and so have a few others, and Lambda has cornered a few of them into admitting they have no practical experience and were trained to be expert witnesses on this, on the record, under oath.
