May I always be as excited to give people hugs as Anthony Gonzalez is to hug Jaime Camil in this Coco behind-the-scenes footage. This link jumps to forty seconds of pure delight: https://youtu.be/MswwpVvrsRY?t=54s

This is a #GlitterShip appreciation post! Because GlitterShip is fucking awesome, okay? Do you like #sciencefiction or #fantasy or whatever other variety of #speculativefiction with awesome #lgbt characters and storylines? Did you only just realize now that I mentioned it how much you might want that?
If yes, GlitterShip is the #sff #podcast and #anthology for you, my #queer frendos and queer-friendly folks also.
Spread the word: GlitterShip is great #ownvoices in action.
I like having a casual mode in some games. Obviously it doesn't work for every game, but stuff like The Long Dark benefits by having the option for when you just want to while away a couple of hours puttering around.
So to that end, here's my OrcaCon schedule for Jan 12-14. https://cypheroftyr.com/2017/12/19/my-orcacon-schedule-2/
I think this is a very thoughtful dissection of why Civ's treatment of the Cree nation doesn't work, but also how Civ ultimately levels all of humanity to an inappropriate [old Imperial colonial] set of values: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/01/05/civilization-vi-cree-nation-cultural-representation/
Hey #magfest folks! Catch my panel on Windows Mixed Reality- Tales from the Trenches! We'll be bringing you all the juicy details from working in MR!

Let’s leave telling people that they’re hopeless in 2017 just because they’re misinformed or mistaken, ok? Posturing above someone’s ignorance about how smart you are compared to them is irritating.
So sweet:
In Native American culture, people in a same-sex relationship are referred to as a “spirit couple,” or “two-spirited.” Though there are many spirit couples in the community, seeing them perform on the pow wow circuit isn’t commonplace, Stevens says. It wasn’t until three years into their relationship that Stevens and Snyder felt bold enough to perform, putting together a routine in just 20 minutes before a competition.
Any other #Seattle-area folks into #tabletop / #boardgames who are going to OrcaCon Jan 12-14?
This year's focus is on highlighting games and art created and published by Indigenous voices in the tabletop games industry.
I had so much fun last year and everyone was very welcoming, but I know it can be intimidating. I'm happy to meet up, play games, and introduce you to other awesome people who will be there. Let me know if you're interested or have questions! #orcacon

I'm doing some market research for my Queer Lady Magician of Colour project! Fill out my survey and pass it on: https://me50.typeform.com/to/cdxL90
While writing mine, I realized that hashtag posts are totally the 201X equivalent of LiveJournal interests lists. So much of the fun was following those links to find other people and I made several in-person friends that way.
I curated the crap out of my interests list and I always loved when an interest turned from unlinked plain text to a hyperlink because someone else had added that interest. Like "Someone's at the door" (CW: 1995 horror broadcast TV show) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCAjFhY_YOA #nostalgia

J Station X is an inclusive games site that publishes news, reviews, and op-eds.
Our primary focus is games with female characters, characters of color, and LGBTQ characters.
Does a game offer particularly good representation? Which games could do better? How is the industry becoming more inclusive? These are some of the things our articles address.
If you're interested in that sort of thing then give us a follow (or @ us if you're a game dev making a relevant title!) :)
