Female Portrayals in Video Games
Recently Overwatch released a new character, citing complaintsof a lack of ‘body diversity’. Now, Idon’t like the character but that’s for a variety of reasons and that’ll becoming at a later date. No, what really botheredme was this argument and the implications for a common trend in representation of women in video games.
To add some context, I’m a gay woman and I want to be a game dev. I’ve loved video games and been a gamer for close to 15 years. And I really feel there are pressing issues with the arguments for ‘representation of women in video games’. I’ve made similar rants about this general topic before and you can find my most successful one here.
If you’re concerned with women, body types, representation, etc, I suggest you give me a fair shake and read all the way to the end. More under the break.

Incredible photo project reveals the wide diversity of Americans in uniform
Do you know what America’s veterans look like?
There are approximately 21.8 million veterans in the United States, according to the census. But it can be difficult sometimes to see the diversity of faces that make up such an imposing statistic. Here are a few things we do know: Out of 21.8 million veterans, approximately 1.3 million of them are living uninsured, according to the Urban Institute, while according to the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans, 60,000 veterans are currently homeless sleeping on our streets.
A new photo series called The Soldier Art Project aims to change this, capturing the humans who inhabit the uniforms in powerful and often poignant portraits.

vine
here’s another wario vine. this one isn’t one of mine, but it is my favourite vine ever. there’s several reasons why this is one of the most amazing pieces of slapstick comedy known to man
the goofy music and stage set a perfect tone
ganondorf hits wario with a forward-tilt while facing the wrong way, somehow, but knocks wario away at the perfect trajectory to set this up, which rarely happens
wario is off-screen during the entirety of the strong knockback, and it’s reasonable to think he’s done for. but against all reason and expectations of physics, and without any visual of the acceleration, wario just fucking soars back on-screen at a ridiculous velocity. the sheer speed he accomplishes is incredible. nobody would ever expect this to happen. i have no idea why the player decided to send him flying that fast, because there was absolutely no guarantee that he would intercept ganondorf on that trajectory, as he hadn’t started jumping yet, and it’s very likely to send him flying past a blast line; a normal recovery wouldn’t have this risk, and would’ve been easy and quick to do, as wario has great airspeed
for some reason, ganondorf, completely unaware, double-jumps directly into wario’s trajectory
wario farts with somehow perfect reflexes as he’s directly above ganondorf. the sound of the flatulence and ganondorf’s disgusted grunt, combined with the visual as everything pauses for a split-second to let it sink in, is incredible
wario self-destructs immediately afterward off the top blast line, just from his ridiculous trajectory set from below stage-level and a fart, but doesn’t lose because he still has one stock left
with no chance to act, ganondorf is KO’d and lets out the most salty and disgusted cry that perfectly fits the king of evil getting pwned 360 noscoped by a fart from this disgusting little man
all three of the previous events happen in a perfect and satisfying rhythm, leaving nothing but an empty arena after the most ridiculous comeback from a disadvantageous offstage position won wario the match
