Cisgender women keep winning and confirming that all this hatred and exclusion of trans people is almost solely the domain of morally reprehensible men (a techbro owns this league). This wouldn't even be a gendered hobby if certain men weren't incredibly creepy about women wanting to take part.

In honor of the new map in the Nightreign DLC absolutely bodying me and my friends, here is a quick short based off a phenomenal EC episode written by @thatbronzegirl.bsky.social & illustrated by Nick DeWitt on what makes this game so special.

I was seriously enveloped by how well they did one aspect of House of Necrosis and needed to make a whole video essay about it.

Undertaker? I hardly know her!
