if you get anything wrong you either still sound masc or you sound like a cartoon character. nevertheless, when done right, people have gotten some pretty amazing results.
and... it's fun. I like playing around with my voice. so I'll probably keep banging my head against it for a little while longer. even if I don't get the voice I want I'm sure I'll learn something interesting
and then once you've got that down, you have to spend time tuning each one to find a voice that actually works and sounds good and is comfortable
I found this pinknews article which claims Frisk from Undertale is confirmed non-binary, but in the cited interview Toby Fox actually just straight up refuses to answer the question. which is... the opposite of a confirmation

@adriantepes I haven't played undertale but I thought it was more that the character design was ambiguous? like you could read them as either gender and the game refuses to pick one
@Sylvhem I'm really looking forward to the next season
I think the biggest thing I wish people understood about accessibility is that the best way to make something accessible is often to offer more choice. Conflicting access needs will always be a thing, but they're a lot easier to deal with if there are multiple alternative ways to accomplish something. For instance, giving your users a choice of fonts rather than deciding one is universally "more accessible"

@quirk I have to agree with the author of the video that the biggest problem with the movie isn't that it misrepresents asian culture (although that's certainly an issue) but that it simply fails to be a good movie: there's no jokes, no charm, no emotion, no character development. they threw that all out in pursuit of "realism" while completely missing the point of the story and undermining its message.
what utter trash. do better, Disney.
