So I've been writing some things for a blog page I'm going to start soon, and this came up. It's a first draft, and I thought I'd try it out here first. Here goes!

I'd like to take a minute to talk about, let's say, women's issues. Specifically, I mean what it can be like to be in a female body. Let me first say that more often than not, I am surrounded by people who are loving and comfortable to be around. Most of the men in my life see me as a companion and a peer, and I am never ...

So I bought Tomb Raider on Tuesday.

It's good.

I've actually never played any of the previous games. Yeah, I know. Up until a few years ago aside from Zelda I rarely played anything that wasn't an RPG.
