It would be smashing if you had a South Park cameo, I'd really love that. Some scene where you get to give advice or have an intelligent retort.

The thing about trans people that seems to trip some folks up is that they're just people. I get it, seeing people as people is hard when you don't really believe people are people. But people IS people, it just be that way.

My favorite mobile game of all time is easily Fable Coin Golf. It was fun enough on its own... as a companion app for Fable III it was great because I got incredibly rich. The companion apps for Assassin's Creed Black Flag and Watch Dogs were fine but not in the same ballpark.
