What did we do to deserve this?
Nintendo of America looks back at 90s toy advertising.
It’s not even catchy fuck. Nintendo of America, you need to stop.
This right here is what advertising should be. Not sexualizing men and women. Just clever little things like this.

Hey so fun fact, my dad is good friends the woman who currently has this job and she told him that Trump’s admin is trying to force her out. They started advertising the job before they actually told her they were transferring her so she’d have to reapply.
Her name is Catherine (Cassie) Conley, and she’s a badass MIT grad that works as NASA’s planetary protection officer, which sounds super cool (though she says not as cool as the galactic administrator). The job is basically the only one in xenobiology (space life) and it’s her life’s work. She’s been doing this job for over 10 years and now Trump wants her out.
I’m beyond pissed that this keeps going around. I know it sounds like a joke job, but it’s a legitimate career that’s being taken away from literally one of the most intelligent women in the country by this asscactus of a presidency.
If ya’ll could signal boost this that’d be much appreciated. They need to know that this kind of bullshit isn’t acceptable
I was actually reading about this job in an NPR article and it sounds REALLY important. the job basically means you make sure we don’t contaminate any planets and anything we bring back like rocks or soil, etc doesn’t do the same here.

Here’s an article where Lionhead mentions that Microsoft’s advertising team refused to let them put a black woman on the cover of Fable 2. Here’s an article where Shane Black mentions he wanted the villain of Iron Man 3 to be a woman but Marvel said the action figure wouldn’t sell and forced him to change it to a man. Here’s an article about how the focus testing for The Last of Us originally didn’t include any women, and here’s another about how the advertisers tried to force Ellie off the box cover for being a girl. And here’s one about how publishers disincentivize the use of female protagonists by giving those games less than half the advertising budget of male-led games.
But whenever these games and movies are critiqued for precisely these reasons, folks come out of the woodwork to insist they are the way they are because that’s the creative team’s vision, and to ask them to change it, to abandon their integrity, is profane and censorious.
So, like, could we stop pretending that the Video Game Sausage Party is anything to do with what the designers want? And maybe remember who, exactly, has influence over their decisions?
