scans: huge Play Meter update!

Hubz has been killing it with the Play Meter scans. We are almost at the end of collecting all of the Play Meter and Replay issues. It is exciting to think that one day all of the 20th century Play Meter issues will be preserved. if you want to support these efforts, I recommend supporting Hubz and Gaming Alexandria on Patreon.

We have a bunch of issues to share, plus I'll be linking a huge stack of Play Meter Updates, smaller publications that happened between issues, because apparently the coin-op industry was so vibrant back then that month the issues could not properly encapsulate it.

This blog stands in protest against the USA's horrific attempts to eliminate trans people from society. Trans people have always existed, in every society, but the administration has embraced a moral panic, declared a war against reality, and says that trans people can no longer be allowed to exist. This includes making their healthcare illegal, censoring books and school curriculum from university level down to elementary school, declaring trans life to be child abuse, and banning trans people from bathrooms.

This blog stands in solidarity with all of the youth who are being terrorized by a fascist president who has declared them to be threats that must be eliminated.

The USA is disappearing random brown people off the streets via unidentified masked men and shipping them off to concentration camps and notorious foreign prisons, all with no due process. Solidarity for all who are in the gaze of this American Nazism terror campaign against its own people.

scans: Play Meter 1998

Not only 1997, Hubz has scanned nearly the entire run of 1998 as well!  The only issue missing is Vol 24 Num 2, which is the Directory issue that comes in between the January and February issues.

This blog stands in opposition to USA's attempted cultural genocide of trans people.  Everyone needs to check their principles and find their red line where fascism can no longer be tolerated.  If this war against trans people does not cross your line, you are supporting nazism and are not welcome.

This blog stands in protest against the USA's horrific policies to try and eliminate trans people from society.  Trans people have always existed, in every society, but this fascist administration has declared a war against reality and says that trans people can no longer be allowed to exist.  Trump's executive orders say that trans children cannot be safe at school, in their home, in public, or at hospitals.  Trump officially declared transness existing as a primary source of CHILD ABUSE.  Trump's orders are a decree to destroy all traces of trans existence from society, to punish every trans person and those that love them, and declares that all trans people are subhuman threats and liars who should not be allowed to exist publicly.  He is attacking children, he is attacking families, and he is delighting in his sadism.
