And of course, if a trans person happened to use one in self-defence, it would be distorted by the press to the point of absurdity and just add to the government-by-Twitter storm :(
Odd there's not been a call to stop Ketamine addicts from owning guns... I am sure the stats are somewhat more significant on that one.
@alisynthesis@io.waxandleather.com It was interesting, but I kinda feel I don't have to play Mass Effect now because I know what happens :D
It is interesting to see how it's all evolved though - I suppose I am guilty of inventing the end-game in the multi-user #MUD #games of the 70s and 80s, where traditionally, once you made Wizard, your game basically ended. By injecting human DMs to make sure there was always politics, and decisions, that changed - But that relied on humans as the story creators, because we'd stretched mobile (NPC) behaviour well beyond what it was ever created to do.
Is there an interesting one to play that doesn't take TOO much time?
I couldn't even finish MYST - Though I did spend 2 years learning Colossal Cave inside out and I can spend far too many days playing Universal Paperclips.
@jordanlund Uugh, yeah.

@jordanlund Do they generally even want to own guns? I am sure their friends will give them some when the revolution comes.
Oh, I guess I am missing the self-defence aspect, my silly non-American mind.
