I’m really excited to finally be able to share my new show with you all. This has been in the works for two years! Episodes releasing every Thursday over at https://nebula.tv/thattimewhen

Since I get asked a lot, here is a list of some of my favourite fiction genre books. https://anitasarkeesian.medium.com/my-favourite-fiction-books-495392198924

While I have ~feelings~ about the nuances of Barbie, this article from @equimundo_org shows that the struggles Ken is dealing with accurately reflects many young men's concerns today... and how patriarchy hurts us all. https://www.equimundo.org/we-need-to-talk-about-ken/

While FemFreq is winding down I’m still consulting on games and will be popping around cons and various events until I figure out what’s next. As this site dies out you can find me on other platforms with the same handle.
@anitasarkeesian

This is absolute batshit. This management “model” is masquerading behind preventing burnout but really it’s creating a deeply toxic work environment based on completely unhinged parameters. https://whynowgaming.com/hello-neighbor-publishers-boss-says-his-company-uses-ai-to-monitor-employees/

❤️😭🥹❤️, about 'Tell me about someone you really admire in the games industry 🌺 One person who really stands out for me is @anitasarkeesian . No one has had a more positive influence on our industry. She did so tirelessly and bravely. We owe her a debt that we will never be able to repay.'

"'We realize that if we want to end cycles of abuse, we have to work with the people who are doing abuse,' [@anitasarkeesian] says. 'And that abuse isn't about a couple of bad actors. It's about transforming the larger culture in which abuse is allowed to proliferate.'"

The @GamesHotline is built on survivor centered and trauma informed principles working towards ending abuse. If you have been harmed we are here for you. If you’ve caused harm and want to work on stopping that behaviour we are also here for you.
@anitasarkeesian
1265443617981661184
We must truly reckon with the conditions that allow this kind of abuse to proliferate and what every single one of us contributes to maintaining these conditions in our workplaces, communities, events, etc. How do we build a games industry we can all be proud to be apart of?
@anitasarkeesian
1265443617981661184
Also so much more abuse in addition to people being roofied is happening at GDC and other industry events: stalking, physical attacks, forcing young/new people to get drunk, uplifting known abusers etc etc etc. THIS HAPPENS EVERY YEAR. THIS IS NOT NEW.
@anitasarkeesian
1265443617981661184
What I’m seeing now is lots of people who haven’t previously been exposed to these issues scramble to find solutions and often those solutions are… not… great. Lids and drug testing straws are basically the equivalent to police body cams. Mostly useless and performative.
@anitasarkeesian
1265443617981661184
Been thinking a lot about the aftermath of harm that happened at events at GDC this year (just like every other year) but this time bystanders seem more aware, frustrated, and helpless then previously. This is generally when the tipping point happens.
@anitasarkeesian
1265443617981661184
We have extended hours this week. Please reach out if you need someone to talk to who understands. 🟢 If you are a victim: This isn’t your fault 🔵 If you are a bystander: It’s extremely hard to watch your loved ones be harmed ❌ If you are harming people: Please stop

Every year, there are stories about groping, drugging, harassment, and even more stories of countless attempts to create opportunities for assault at games industry events like #GDC23. It's heartbreaking and infuriating that this feels so normalized... Text SUPPORT to 23368.

To be clear my tweet is about the content of the article — the existence and creation of exploitative deep fakes and the targeting of fem streamers not the response by the streamer who watched them. That is a different issue that I’m not getting into on twitter.
