This one panel editorial cartoon shows two men standing in front of a computer desk. One of the men is a Gamer, sitting in a gaming chair in front of his computer which has Hogwarts Legacy on the screen. The computer is showing one of the goblins from the game. The Gamer says to the other man, "It's just a video game... I don't get why you're so upset I'm playing it. Chill out!" He is decked out in Harry Potter merchandise, wearing a scarf around his neck while his room is littered with posters and other memorabilia. The other man crosses his arms, looking disappointed with the gamer. He is Jewish, wearing a kippah and a star of David necklace. He is also trans, wearing a pin of the trans flag and genderqueer symbol. A television in the back of the Gamer's room projects a news reporter featuring J.K. Rowling. The report is captioned "J.K. Rowling Unveils Beira's." J.K. Rowling says on the TV, "...And with my fortune I've now financed a women's shelter... for biological women only!"
