International Pronouns Day Wednesday, October 17 was the first International Pronouns Day, spearheaded by @PronounsDay . Visit pronounsday.org for more information. Jo Lee shares their insight into why pronouns are important and why asking for someone’s pronouns is always a good idea. Spirit Day Since 2010, GLAAD has led the movement for an annual event called Spirit Day. In a nod to the purple stripe on the pride flag, purple is worn to show support for LGBTQ youth, who endure bullying and violence at disproportionate rates. “Ass”-assins Creed So what happens when you stick a giant nude statue in the middle of Ancient Greece? The gaymer community wasted zero time answering that question in Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey. Check out Johnathan’s write up (and screencaps) on the blog . Pitch Perfect? When someone tells you they have perfect pitch… can you really believe them? Johnathan digs up our Bloop of the Week and Carlos gets REAL music nerdy.
