Could you provide sources for these claims? I've heard she made a couple tweets saying trans women weren't real women but none of the other stuff. If true then I'd like to read more. Thanks.

Here’s the constitutional crisis one: https://www.simmons-simmons.com/en/publications/cldimefby007stsmssw31a6on/uk-government-blocks-scottish-gender-bill

Basically the UK government have never used their powers to block Scottish bills being passed ever ever before this, and all the bill did was make it easier for 16 and 17 year olds to legally change their gender. This happened because of the virulent hate campaign against trans people in the UK. Rowling is an active participant in this, by far the most famous figure to do so. She is quite literally the face of the anti-trans movement in the UK, and actively uses her fame and influence to make the movement seem palatable to regular people, as well as fight for (and using her royalties and immense wealth to donate to) anti-trans causes, organisations, and legislation, all of which causes actual real world harm. It’s far more than just tweeting some bullshit.

More recently, this has led to her openly supporting far-right groups who oppose abortion and LGBTQ+ rights in general, simply because they are some of the only people to agree with her stance on trans people. It’s radicalisation happening in real time. Here’s a video on that:

https://youtu.be/Ou_xvXJJk7k

Hope this helps provide some extra context to anyone. I really cannot stress enough how the UK government have never ever EVER blocked a Scottish bill from becoming law before this completely innocuous one, and how much of a part Rowling’s campaign did in making it happen.

This year I’ve completed Final Fantasy IV, Grapple Dog, and NORCO, and am in the middle of Persona 5 Royal and Pizza Tower, plus doing runs in Slay the Spire every so often (only got to the third boss so far, beat it but then it bloody resurrected or something smh). Will start Metroid Prime Remastered tomorrow, very excited to finally get to that one.

Second palace iirc. It’s cool! I haven’t played any in a while actually but I’m not dropping it or anything. Obviously the perv stuff is awful (hahaha! a teenage girl being painted nude! and she’s very uncomfortable about it! the height of comedy!) but I like the style and letting the other characters kill everyone while I go blap blap blap with my gun

Pizza Tower is great but if you just want another Wario Land it’s not quite that, it’s all about speed and combos and has actual challenge. I bounced off it after the first boss but that’s just because it wasn’t what I was looking for, it’s still a v good game

It came out before Banjo-Tooie if that makes any difference? The Rare N64 platformers in release order go Banjo-Kazooie - Donkey Kong 64 - Banjo-Tooie - Conker’s Bad Fur Day. I mean I don’t mind either way but I dunno if you would prefer to do it in that order or not

Unless Veeg is super into the 64 warts and all, I wouldn't recommend DK64.

It represents all of the worst aspects of a collect-a-thon from that era, with waaaaay too many things to collect to beat the game.

Like... it's an experience, but yall better be prepared for what that experience represents.

Completed Metroid Prime Remastered. What a wonderful video game! Started to lose me a little towards the end - the artificial lengthening is really blatant, and the Fission Metroids are not a good enemy imo - but then those last couple boss fights were really sick. Very glad I finally played it.
