Kiyata Thanks so much! 😀 I'm far from perfect and wasn't saying it for praise, just to demonstrate how important it is for me to help other people navigate this stuff and try to use what little power/influence I have to bring about positive changes. I'm not really comfortable being a role model as pedestals are very easy to fall off from and I actually get very anxious being centre of attention (perhaps I'm in the wrong job! 😅) I'm just a creative person and like feeling part of a group, so big projects like films with hundreds of people working towards a goal appeal to me... but I hate the hierarchys and abuses of power and bullying that can come with them, so I naturally have gravitated to trying to help people into the industry and making it a welcoming, safe and equal environment 😊 But its also very important that the media we put out into the world sets a good example and has a good message - of course whilst also being entertaining and not just preachy / fake "corporate woke" for ESG points.

graviton @Duncanballs Love reading this conversation. Just to add, for reference, I'm a cis-het male, usually framed by others as traditionally masculine looking, (currently in training to star in a superhero movie, for example. Have also previously often played gangster, football hooligan, etc). A good 2.5 years after its market launch, the market-busting Nintendo Switch has a sister model. As the keenest detectives will work out from the name, this is a slimmed-down version, kind of like what Sony does with its PlayStation Slim, before it started going down the route of producing more powerful versions.I share you sentiments well. It amuses me when men and women insists women are the ones to dress “pretty” only and men did not care about appearances or less of it. Or that women are the only one who can wear bolder colors. If this was Elizabethan England, men would have been expected to and would be better and more colorfully dressed than women and no one would bat an eye or care about it.

I have kids that are now adults, and also many friends and colleagues who are Gen Z and young millenials, and while life is of course still hard at that age, and things like social media add all linds of pressures and stresses that we didnt have, they are so much better informed and equipt to deal with this stuff and feel more comfortable being themselves than we were encouraged to. I learn SO much from the younger generations and unlike.many my age I'm very admiring of them and feel positive that the future is secure in their hands once they are the ones steering the ship. But even more so, the idea of something as benign as a colour or tv show or toy being only for a specific, rigid gender is litwrally nonsensical. And as the other guys pointed out, these standards change throughout history as fashions change anyway. Pink used to be a man's colour. Make up and wigs were a status symbol for men. None of it needs to be taken seriously, just have fun and do what makes you happy, and leave others alone to do the same 😀

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is in pretty much everyone's catalog, and so we think it's a great entry point for families who are coming into Nintendo systems because it's got this plug and play type mentality to it where you can just... When you get the unit, plug it in, start playing Mario Kart and having fun as a family," Bowser said. Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you.

And so as a result, we think about opportunities to bring more consumers in and encourage people to come in, especially during the holiday period. We think the best method, and it's worked well for us in the past, has been through the bundles themselves, and by offering a software that they can engage with and get their catalog started with. So that's really the direction we've been taking." As I said, I'm somewhat ashamed or annoyed that my internalised feeling of societal pressure took me til I was so old before I realised how silly it all was to waste your life worrying about what other people think, or pretending to be something you're not.It's been delayed because of the writers strike and ongoing SAG AFTRA strike, but it should be out soon. You may find it interesting... and of course, all money goes to the good causes, not to me 😀
