Trans Krabs Bust Bigots!!
The trans King Crab has become a bit of a positive meme in the BattleTech community. Symbolizing how hard we fight to do what's right, and how we don't give up willingly
It's also my favourite 'Mech out there
This one is both King and Queen, best of both things 💜

Earlier this week, I spoke briefly Epic about Horses, a game that was approved for release on EGS, then blocked after a re-rating
"We love that studio," Epic VP Steve Allison said of Santa Ragione, but maintained that an AO rating was a dealbreaker

Gonna be honest, it did feel a bit like I had been going crazy, especially since even before any of these revelations, a lot of career transphobes were quite openly pedophilic, Germaine Greer self-described as a pederast "like all women of taste", and yet nobody seemed to see the red flags.
You’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

jeffrey epstein's apparent association with the likes of bobby kotick, steve bannon, and peter thiel – and his fascination with game design as a means of controlling others – paint an unsettling picture
![If you’re not already seeing the pattern, it’s clear that Epstein and his associates saw games as mechanisms for profit, coercion, and control, a throughline that persists in his association with two key figures in Gamergate and the surrounding bedlam: Peter Thiel and Steve Bannon.
Based on available files, Epstein expressed interest in Thiel and his surveillance company, Palantir, as early as 2012, but correspondence between the two began in 2014. Then, in May 2016, Epstein messaged Thiel saying that he "would have gladly share[d] your expenses for the gawker suit" and invited him to dinner with Noam Chomsky, of all people (it is unclear if this dinner ever took place). That suit, of course, led to the collapse of Gawker Media and the sale of its many sites – of which Kotaku, a major Gamergate target (and the former employer of all five members of Aftermath’s core staff), was one. This would send ripples through the worlds of media and journalism for years to come, leading to a press defanged by the threat of legal annihilation.
The next month, shortly after the June 2016 referendum that kicked off Brexit, Epstein emailed Thiel, saying "brexit, just the beginning" and then, in response to Thiel asking what he meant, "return to tribalism. counter to globalization. amazing new alliances. you and I both agreed zero interest rates were too high, and as i said in your office. finding things on their way to collapse, was much easier than finding the next bargain."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5gdejlhcswjbzraadoltdpps/bafkreiao37med33tdxi7743wqz627lyzzfpfl2istut75g64cl763k6xea@jpeg)
