The trans athlete “debate” would have dramatically affected me growing up. I was 5’2” at 8 years old. 6’0” at 12. Parents complained so often i was the wrong age, i carried a copy of my birth certificate. I would have 100% been the target of the trans-vestigators. I remember a

Making sexual content about someone w/o consent should be a crime. Deep fakes, fan stories, fan art, secret photos, sharing nudes- all of these are violations of someone’s body autonomy when made w/o consent. Being “famous” doesn’t remove your rights. So grossed out by this

If the debate about my sex would have also been on the table I would have 100% been the subject to constant body searches. Sports are already “unfair” due to body differences. I had sooo much of an advantage over kids my age due to my size it was a joke. That’s how sports are.

Dad at basketball as a freshman screaming at me because I had a varsity jacket from a fall sport. He rallied the entire audience to scream that I was lying about my age BEFORE the game started. The game couldn’t start until they pulled up my school transcript. I was mortified.

Letting trans women/girls participate vs other women/girls is fine. They have an advantage sure. I had an advantage. Most premiere athletes have some weird body advantage. What’s next, breaking up basketball leagues by height?

I accidentally put a girl in a stretcher when playing basketball in HS. She contested a ball with me, and I swept the ball so hard (that she was holding) she got body slammed to the ground so hard she couldn’t move. I had easily 100 lbs on her. It wasn’t intentional.

Hey everyone- putting this on mute and limited replies. 1) apologies for how I said “trans have an advantage.” My goal was to say “maybe they have an advantage but why do we only care about advantages now” 2) I’m 9 months pregnant so I need to rest and focus on that.

Post Twitchcon thoughts 🧵: ✨This is directed at no one in particular. ✨ There is a new generation of creator forming post Covid. Pro tip: the industry is small. We all talk. And many times the difference between being hired by a big company or not is a recommendation.

To clarify- These are different levels. Of course a fan fic isn't as bad as a deep fake. However, to say its NOT harmful at all, and shouldn't come with requirements for consent is also incorrect. Also I'm not coming for your internal fantasy. Still weird champ but 🤷‍♀️

At an event like Twitchcon- EVERYONE there is in the community. Acting rude or entitled because of your new fame will get around. Treating others badly because of their badge is noticed. And “pleb” badges are often the managers at large companies.

@GrimsbyVT The argument of “preventing males from competing with females” is that they have such a physical advantage that it’s not fair. I’m pointing out that I, a cis woman, had that same level of advantage growing up. The outrage about trans athletes is transphobia disguised as concern.

@KhasinoTTV “Just painting pictures” is minimizing this. If they are going out and painting a consenting model, or got permission to draw a specific person in a sexual manor is fine. Drawing made up people is fine. Drawing art of real humans, who did not consent to it should be a crime.

League Streamers- How is in game player behavior affecting your ability to stream? How does it affect your mental? Talking everything including griefing, inting, afking, forcing dodges- not just your "bad chat logs." (But those also!) I'm trying to collect some numbers...

I’m back online today, doing much better. Just to clear the air: 1) thank you for the kind messages, dms. i didn’t expect the post to get that many eyes ❤️ 2) riot internally has been checking in/supporting/protecting me. i wont go into specifics but they take it seriously 🧵

I try to be accessible on the internet to everyone, but this is too much. sending me dm's with death threats/ hopes that I miscarry my baby over a lol cinematic and the lcs time is too far. i get passion, i get frustration. i get wanting to have your voice heard. i don't get this

TODAY IS MY 4 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF WORKING @riotgames (a sappy thread) . I remember when I got the call that I got the job at Riot. I called my husband @MrShiftyCloak crying and all I could say is "they have a Narnia closet." That's it. That's what I was excited about.

@LCSOfficial @StateFarm As the admin on this contest- It’s hard to capture the details on broadcast. Judges interviewed each creator, after reading over their build books.(that averaged 25 pages long. EACH). This was not an easy contest. To think that boobs had any decision in this is rude and ignorant.

Vent. 🧵TW: medical stuff About a month ago: I miscarried twins at 9 weeks. I haven’t fully “passed” them, due to meds not working. I have surgery on Thursday. Today I tested positive for Covid. I’m very sick and high risk for infection if the “pregnancy” tissue isn’t removed
