Content warning for this episode: brief discussions of surgery complications, suicidal thoughts, and misgendering

Taylor McCue (choosing not to disclose pronouns) is a game developer whose work explores trans identities, bodily autonomy, and the dehumanizing impact of institutions. We discussed the flawed act of asking for pronouns, what led Taylor to make games, and the using Gameboy ROMs as a form of preservation. It’s a bit heavier than most episodes, but I feel well worth digging into.

Taylor’s games are available on itch and Steam.
