It occurs to me, after reading posts getting it spectacularly wrong, that there are a lot of misconceptions over how game studios organize and, in particular, who makes the actual decisions about what ends up in your game. Much of it is by folks who don't *try* to get it... but not all, surely. 1/🧵

I know this might be shocking to some but women can be the protagonist in your video games and they don't need to meet your requirements for beauty

Last time I checked the only requirement for a game is being fun

Samus is giving yall side eye

Huge, if true.

Rudolph gets all the love so let’s talk about the names of Santa’s other reindeer.

dasher | noun | one that dashes
dancer | noun | one that dances
prancer | noun | one that walks or moves in a spirited manner

Ok, those three are easy to understand.

Does anyone else have a very real, and very visceral reaction to using "The Big Light" in a room? Or should I just add this to my growing list of otherwise minor niggles that I definitely blow out of proportion.

I have complicated feelings on this. I never found solace in the whole 'eye for an eye' thing. At the same time, the US health system needs reform, but by any means necessary? Some national health programmes do incredible work, and work incredibly well.

Alright fine, I'll say it... I can't eat with long sleeves on. I need to roll my sleeves up, or change/remove outer layers until I'm in a short sleeve top. Likewise, I cannot prep food with long sleeves.

Adult films give young people a really unhealthy and unrealistic idea of how quickly a plumber will come to your house.

Putting all the other reindeer on blast, apparently. I feel unnecessarily strongly about this 😂

gonna have an entire chorus for a new version of "we didn't start the fire" by the end of this month

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer is on tonight.

The classic tale of when people treat you like shit until they find out you can do something for them.
