Transgender video game director says all companions in new Dragon Age game are pansexual



The Dragon Age video game franchise took a strange turn after the game's director explained that all companions in the story will be pansexual and will have the ability to interact romantically with each other.

The series is developed by studio BioWare and distributed by the massive company Electronic Arts. The first three games in the series have sold approximately 11.2 million copies, according to Levvvel, with the third iteration released all the way back in 2014.

In 2024, Dragon Age: The Veilguard will finally get its long-awaited release, but not before going through changes that are often described as being for a "modern audience."

Speaking to IGN, Director Corinne Busche insisted to the staff that companion characters in the game are specifically pansexual.

"Their past experiences or partners, they'll reference them and indeed who they'll become romantic with," Busche told IGN.

The outlet pointed out that BioWare tends to have explicit sex scenes in their titles, which Busche confirmed for the new game.

"Of course, we are an M-rated game ... we do have nudity."

'Romance arcs are what have contributed to the downfall of video games.'

As noted by IGN, BioWare has a particular penchant for pushing gender ideology. In early April 2024, BioWare nonsensically declared that transgender people have always been a part of the company's "worlds."

"Today is #TransgenderDayOfVisibility," the company wrote on X. "Trans people have always been a part of our worlds; we're proud to support them both within our games and in real life."

The statement was issued despite the obvious fact that the topic was seldom spoken about for the first 20 years of the company's existence.

The Dragon Age: The Veilguard director is a transgender person himself and was self-described on the BioWare website as a "queer trans woman."

"I transitioned during my time at BioWare," Busche said. "I reflect all the time on how supported and seen I felt through that process, and how lucky I am to be surrounded by people of this caliber. It really speaks to the values of this team, and their commitment to inclusion in their works and their lives."

Commentator Melonie Mac reacted to the game's trailer and directed Blaze News to her comments on why such ideologies are being pushed in such a popular franchise.

"The characters are ugly ... it's not about representation to them when the characters are overrepresented," she said.

"Romance arcs are what have contributed to the downfall of video games," she said on the Quartercast.

Mac pointed out that many top titles have injected romance themes into their games, which have caused weird, sexual interactions within the gameplay.

As well, celebrated game designer Mark Kern called the Dragon Age news "enforced queerness," as the battle of ideologies within the gaming community rages on.

That Park Place reported that after news circulated of the pansexual direction of the game, Busche made his X page private and removed his activist-theme bio. This included references to his preferred pronouns, being a "Trans Woman," calling himself a "Queerosexual Gendermancer," and hashtags in support of "TransRights" and "BlackLivesMatter."

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is slated for a fall 2024 release.

'Pansexual' Antifa radical arrested for allegedly setting off nail bomb outside Alabama AG's office



A radical leftist was arrested Wednesday in connection with the Feb. 24 bombing outside the Republican attorney general's office in Montgomery, Alabama. Kyle Benjamin Douglas Calvert, 26, of Irondale has been indicted on two felony counts of malicious use of an explosive and possession of an unregistered destructive device.

Calvert, an anti-Israel "pansexual" and self-described engineer, apparently reckons himself part of the left-wing extremist group Antifa, which former President Donald Trump suggested in 2020 should be designated a domestic terrorist organization. Weeks ahead of the incident, Calvert showcased the same Antifa propaganda that was later found near the bomb site along with pro-abortion and LGBT agitprop.

Republican Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall said of Calvert's arrest, "My staff and I are breathing a collective sigh of relief this morning knowing that this individual has been taken off the streets."

"Although more information will be provided in the weeks to come, I think it is safe to say that this was not a random act of violence," continued the Republican attorney general. "We are grateful to our federal and local partners for their assistance in this matter and are pleased that the offender faces federal charges carrying significant prison time."

At approximately 3:42 a.m. on Feb. 24, a nail bomb was detonated outside AG Marshall's office building. Marshall revealed in a statement that "thankfully, no staff or personnel were injured by the explosion."

According to the Department of Justice, there was also no "major damage" reported to nearby buildings.

Days after the bombing, state authorities and the FBI released security camera footage and photographs of the pigeon-footed suspect appending leftist propaganda to state buildings around the time of the bombing dressed in a blue mask, a hat, circular goggles, and a black jacket.

On March 1, Republican Gov. Kay Ivey offered a reward of $5,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the perpetrator, underscoring that "every effort should be made to protect the citizens of the State of Alabama."

Court documents alleged that Calvert was spotted making his way to the Republican AG's office at 3:35 a.m. on Feb. 24. Several minutes later, there was a an explosion.

Investigators indicated that the device was fashioned out of a "coffee container-like vessel which contained insulation material soaked in a gasoline or light fluid substance, a mortar, firecrackers and nails."

Nail bombs have long been utilized by terrorists to generate a larger radius of destruction and maximize harm to soft targets. For instance, the Islamic terrorists who murdered 22 people, including children, and injured well over 1,000 at a 2017 Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, utilized such a device.

The charging document stressed that the "action of placing and initiating the IED on the walkway beside a government building demonstrates that this device was used as a weapon against property and/or to cause injury/death."

Calvert made easy work for investigators, failing to disguise his limp and driving his Toyota Camry to and from the scene, which they were able to later identify as his, in part because of the "several uniquely shaped and placed stickers on the rear portion and the rear bumper" of the car and the "poorly matched repair job" on the driver side rear door.

Calvert's apparent sticker obsession connected him to the scene in more ways than one.

Prosecutors indicated that one of the stickers Calvert allegedly posted near the bomb site read, "SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL ANTIFA."

Other stickers read, "DEATH TO FASCISM," "MY BODY. MY CHOICE," "ABOLISH ICE," "FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS BECOME COPS," "EAT THE RICH," and "NEVER WORK."

In a Jan. 10 video he originally shared to his TikTok page, referenced in his charging document, Calvert shows off stickers "of identical design to the stickers placed by the subject in and around the Alabama Statehouse and downtown Montgomery," along with stickers that read, "Smash the patriarchy," "Anti-fascism is community defense," and "Queer liberation, not rainbow capitalism."

In the video, Calvert also stated, "I am impulsive by nature in some way that can often be violent, or my impulses are violent."

Calvert made his anger clear in multiple videos.

Court documents also referenced a Dec. 12, 2023, TikTok video wherein Calvert stated, "I don't understand how f**king politicians do this s**t. How the f**k are people okay with this s**t?"

He allegedly went on to say, "How the f**k are we not killing the government right now! F**k!"

Trans Antifa member and terrorism suspect Kyle Benjamin Douglas Calvert, of Irondale, Ala., posted a video on social media showing off his extensive Antifa propaganda before allegedly carrying out a nail bombing at the office of @AGSteveMarshall. Federal prosecutors warn that if\u2026

Prosecutors emphasized that "Calvert is violent, and he is dangerous, just as he said. If Calvert is released, the danger to the community from a second offense is greatly increased."

The DOJ noted that if convicted, Calvert faces a mandatory minimum of five years in prison and a maximum penalty of 20 years behind bars.

"Federal, state, and local law enforcement agents worked tirelessly to investigate this matter," Acting U.S. Attorney Jonathan Ross for the Middle District of Alabama said in a statement. "The arrest today is a reflection of the way in which close cooperation among law enforcement agencies facilitates the pursuit of justice. I am grateful for the efforts of all involved."

"This explosion was very unsettling to the community and we hope today’s arrest provides reassurance that the FBI will investigate those who target public institutions and will hold them accountable for such illegal acts," said FBI Director Christopher Wray.

Wayne Brady from 'Whose Line Is It Anyway?' comes out as PANSEXUAL



Many will fondly recall the improvisational comedy series “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” featuring Ryan Stiles, Colin Mochrie, Drew Carey, and Wayne Brady, who recently came out as pansexual.

We’ll give credit where credit is due – Brady is a very talented improv comedian. However, this sudden pledgeship to the Alphabet Mafia reeks of virtue-signaling.

“I advocate mental health for all, and a part of that is self-transparency,” Brady said. “I want to be free to love whomever I want; this truth makes me pan and part of the LGBTQ+ family.”

“You don’t have to make some statement about what you are,” says Stu Burguiere. “You are free to love whoever you want, like it’s 2023.”

“We’d like to just yawn when you tell us this crap. Instead we’re supposed to cherish it or something,” he adds.

For those who have a hard time wrapping their heads around what pansexual even means, Stu has a great explanation: “It’s like a bisexual plus – you like men, women, or whatever else is in the LGBTQ+ community.”


Join Stu Burguiere as he offers a humorous conservative perspective on Wayne Brady's recent pansexual coming out announcement. Stu questions the necessity of...

'Let's Make a Deal' host Wayne Brady says he identifies as pansexual



Wayne Brady has said that he identifies as pansexual.

The "Let's Make a Deal" gameshow host indicated to People that he can be attracted to individuals of various identities.

"In doing my research, both with myself and just with the world, I couldn't say if I was bisexual, because I had to really see what that was, especially because I really have not gotten a chance to act on anything," Brady told the outlet. "So, I came to pansexual because — and I know that I'm completely messing up the dictionary meaning — but to me, pan means being able to be attracted to anyone who identifies as gay, straight, bi, transsexual or non-binary. Being able to be attracted across the board. And, I think, at least for me for right now, that is the proper place. I took pan to mean that not only can I be attracted to any of these people or types physically, but I could be attracted to the person that is there."

Brady, who won season two of "The Masked Singer" celebrity singing competition, said that he has been attracted to men at points during his life, but has not dated a man.

"Let's be really honest: I've also been attracted to certain men in my life, but I've always pushed that aside because of how I was raised, and because I live in today's world, and it's scary as s--t. What's the fastest way to hurt another man? I'm gonna call you out of your name. I'm gonna call you gay. I'm gonna emasculate you," he said.

He said that he has undergone treatment for "love addiction."

"I was treated for love addiction. It’s a part of my journey. I had to start examining why I was looking for myself and happiness in a slew of people. If I marry this person, then everything will be fine. If I date this person, everything will be fine. I'll be good. I'll be fixed. That is obviously a problem. And so, in doing that work, I now know absolutely that love addiction is borne of trauma. I can't feel any shame around that, just like I wouldn't shame somebody if they said they were addicted to meth or cocaine. That's a sickness," the celebrity said, according to the outlet.

"I am single, but it's not about being with someone right now. I've got some work to do still. Then, Wayne as a single, open-minded pansexual can make a decision and be free and open to other people," Brady said, according to People.

TikTok's 'pansexual' COO identifies as 'both a woman and non-binary' and is rearing 'kids in a same sex household'



TikTok chief operating officer Vanessa Pappas identifies as "pansexual" and as "both a woman and non-binary" and uses "both they/them and she/her" pronouns, according to an announcement shared on social media — Pappas' name is listed as "V(anessa) Pappas" on social media .

"A personal update. I shared this to our TikTok organization over the weekend and wanted to bring visibility here as well," Pappas wrote.

"I am pansexual and raising my kids in a same sex household with my loving spouse and partner of 20 years - as a family we spend a lot of time talking about the importance of recognizing diversity across sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, gender, age, socio-economic status, personal abilities, political backgrounds etc," Pappas declared. "Most recently our conversation has focused on gender identity. In my personal life, I primarily go by V and more recently they/them. Since representation matters, I recognize the importance of language in identifying and affirming gender differences."

"So while most of you know me as being fairly private as it relates to my personal life I did feel it important to bring my whole self to work and to share my gender identity and preferred pronouns," Pappas wrote. "So how to best address me? I use both they/them and she/her as I still very much value my identity as being both a woman and non-binary. I don't worry if you don't use V or they/them all the time, but I do appreciate the effort to recognize my preferences."

TikTok is a controversial social media company because it is owned by ByteDance, a Chinese company.

The app has been banned from U.S. House of Representatives devices. "The Committee on House Administration has authorized the CAO Office of Cybersecurity to initiate the removal of TikTok Social Media Service from all House managed devices," according to a notice. "TikTok is NOT allowed on House mobile devices."

\u201cThe House is removing TikTok from all work phones starting today, per notice I obtained \n\n"The Office of Cybersecurity has been deemed The TikTok mobile application to be a high risk to users due to a number of security risks"\n\n(the omni implemented a similar policy for the feds)\u201d
— Nicholas Wu (@Nicholas Wu) 1672156876

A measure approved late last year as part of the massive omnibus bill targets TikTok by demanding the development of "standards and guidelines for executive agencies requiring the removal of any covered application from information technology," with certain exceptions — the measure stipulates that "the term 'covered application' means the social networking service TikTok or any successor application or service developed or provided by ByteDance Limited or an entity owned by ByteDance Limited."

Pansexual Florida teacher fired after discussing her sexuality with middle school students



A Florida middle school teacher claims she was fired because she had a discussion with students about her sexuality, whom she says then asked to draw flag pictures expressing their own sexualities.

Casey Scott, a first-year art instructor at Cape Coral Middle School, told WBBH-TV that school administrators ordered her to throw out the drawings and fired her after learning she explained to students that she is pansexual.

“A discussion happened in class and because of that, now I’m fired,” Scott said.

The Lee County School District disputes her story, saying she was fired for not following the mandated curriculum, WBBH reports.

According to Scott, who is married to a man, the discussion concerned how she identifies as pansexual. To be pansexual means a person is not limited in sexual preference with regard to biological sex, gender, or gender identity.

"I like anyone despite male, female, non-binary, transgender,” Scott told WBBH.

She says that some of her middle school kids identify as non-binary, bisexual, and gay, and that they wanted to create art expressing their own sexualities.

Scott hung their artwork on the classroom door, and according to her, that's when school administrators contacted her.

“They said it would be in the best interest if I got rid of them now,” she said.

She provided WBBH with pictures of the flags, which were placed in a recycling bin.

“I went over to the recycling bin. I grabbed all their flags and all the kids were staring at me. And I crumbled their flags in front of them,” she recounted.

She said the school sent her home and then called her later that day to inform her she would be released from her contract.

According to the Lee School District, parents had registered complaints about the conversation and the artwork. The district said that students confirmed the discussion took place and that some were confused by what it meant to be pansexual, WBBH reports.

A representative with the Teachers Union of Lee County said that Scott was not a member and could legally be fired without cause.

The firing happened just days before Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a law that prohibits discussions on sexual orientation or gender identity from taking place in K-3 classrooms, and restricts such topics to what is "age appropriate" or "developmentally appropriate" in higher grades, as determined by state standards.

Critics derided the legislation as the "Don't Say Gay" bill, arguing it imposes vague restrictions on what teachers are allowed to talk about in the classroom and would have a chilling effect on speech.

Supporters countered that Florida's "Parental Rights in Education" bill prevents young children from being exposed to sexual content that is inappropriate for them in school.

MARK LEVIN: Disney transformed from the Magic Kingdom into a WOKE asylum



As leftist Disney executives transform the Magic Kingdom into a woke asylum, Mark unearths a shocking interview where Disney's president of content lays bare the company's plan to indoctrinate the nation with its Marxist agenda.

This sexual agenda being taught to your babies has reached unacceptable levels of depravity, and it must be stopped.

LevinTV” host Mark Levin chooses to never set foot in Disneyland or Disney World again. "Walt Disney was a conservative, and he would be shocked by the company's stance in its objection to a recent law passed in Florida. A law that would prevent teaching children about: sex acts; sex; straight; gay; genitalia, and all the rest from preschool to third grade."

These are little kids. Why is Disney so obsessed with sexualizing children? Mark explains the disconnect between those who believe children should be sex experts by third grade and the rest of us who believe that "what matters is between your ears, not between your legs."

Demi Lovato comes out as pansexual, says she's attracted to 'anything, really'



Pop star Demi Lovato recently opened up about her newfound sexuality in an interview on "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast, telling host Joe Rogan she is pansexual now and is attracted to "anything, really."

The 28-year-old "Dancing with the Devil" singer said she is attracted to men, women, and anything in between and described herself as "fluid" sexually.

"I'm so fluid now, and a part of the reason why I am so fluid is because I was, like, super closeted off," she said, prompting Rogan to ask, "You mean sexually fluid? You like girls? You like boys?"

"Yeah, anything, really" Lovato responded.

When Rogan asked if the term "pansexual" was fitting, she responded, "Yeah, pansexual."

Later in the interview, she recalled how she "heard someone call the LGBTQIA+ community the alphabet mafia" and said, "That's it! That's what I'm going with."

"I'm part of the alphabet mafia and proud," she added.

Lovato, who called off her engagement to Max Ehrich last year, said she first learned she was attracted to women after watching Sarah Michelle Gellar and Selma Blair kiss in the 1999 teen drama "Cruel Intentions" as a kid. But she said her sexual awakening at the scene caused her to feel guilt and shame because of her Christian upbringing.

"I felt a lot of shame because growing up in Texas as a Christian, that's very frowned upon," she recalled. "Any attraction that I ever had toward a female at a young age, I shut it down before I even let myself process what I was feeling."

Lovato opened up more about her canceled engagement to Ehrich in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly in which she recalled realizing she was "just too queer" to settle down with a man.

"Regardless if drama is happening or not, I am too gay to marry a man right now," she said. "I don't know if that will change in 10 years and I don't know if that'll never change, but I love accepting myself."

"I've always known I was hella queer, but I have fully embraced it," she said.

In another interview, this time with Glamour, Lovato noted that around the time of the couple's breakup, she "hooked up with a girl and was like, 'I like this a lot more.' It felt better. It felt right."
