1000 words: "Startling moments in gaming: 1) Realizing Samus is a girl. 2) Realizing Bridget isn't."

Sone people giggle. Then xtalcy comes in with: "Am I the only one who thinks transphobic humor is not so funny?" Several others agree that maybe this isn't all lulz and fun. Others do not, notably gonsai, who starts with "Except neither character is transgendered in any sense." Cue bickering, including defenses of "I'm dating one", "You're oversensitive," and "I am one."

1:50pm: America's Next Top Wanker
Kim Stolz, former America's Next Top Model token lesbian contestant and current MTV News Correspondent (second only to Kurt Loder in the "Are you sure s/he's not a robot?" category) is upset with Tyra Banks apparently dissing her in one of this season's photoshoots. (Complete with parody judging.) Someone in the LJ Top Model Community who appears to be off their meds wanks about it here.

Will Tyra respond? Stay tuned.
