“It was really important to us, especially in the current political climate, to put this in the game.”

Blobun is an indie puzzle game currently making waves on social media thanks to a joke setting that eliminates its lesbian content. The problem? Blobun protagonist Stephanie is gay, so flipping the so-called “lesbian toggle” in the options menu removes her from the game and renders it totally unplayable.

    For answers about nonhuman members, we suggest looking to and about the OtherKin, AlterHuman/AlterBeing and TransSpecies communities as this isn’t unique to just plural folks, singlets can be and often are nonhuman too.

    Being nonhuman has a long history beyond such concepts (OtherKin etc) existing, for example TransHumanism used to be about this in part before it got hijacked by TechBros etc, and many cultures likely had and have some kind of acceptance for it in their spiritual and cultural practices and beliefs, as well as ‘humans’ being raised by nonhumans and thus socially not being human at least. Its vagueness is intentional as we can literally be anything. None of us for instance are human and we know many who are the same, singlet or plural.
