That’s what cool people call YouTube

It’s fanart of Knights of Guinevere. The series is produced by Glitch with Dana Terrace as showrunner. It’s free on the choob.

I think a poorly executed movie with something big to say can be better than a well executed movie with nothing to say. That’s why The Last Jedi is better than the Force Awakens

Yeah but why is there a hole in the dog’s left cheek?

That’s very disturbing. Please explain.

What a nice genie!

Chat, I need help. Since a couple updates ago, CaxhyOS isn’t focusing on Proton applications properly. If I click on a Proton window, it doesn’t actually focus it unless I first minimise all applications, or then minimise another application. It’s super annoying for alt-tabbing fullscteen games, since I have to go to the desktop before going into a game.

Curiously, I don’t think it happens with Bitburner, which lately I’ve had running all the time. So maybe it’s only happening with the second game I launch at a time? Not sure.

Pronouns have multiple purposes. It’s not just for helping people who forget names. It’s also for making language flow better, for saving time, and affirming identities.

Every intersex person I know advocates against these unnecessary cosmetic genital surgeries. A lot of them are in a situation like Purple here. Their body is taken away from them without asking, and they have to pay and face barriers and experience trauma to get it back. And it’s never quite the same as it was.

I have the precise opposite opinion, I think society needs to take more responsibility for how we gender others, and not just in language.

We have some ability to control our perceptions. That ability can be trained, and we can learn techniques to do it better. So there’s no excuse for perceiving a trans woman as “non-passing”. The passing is a thing happening inside everyone else’s brain, not in her body! So we need to take responsibility for our own minds and perceive her as female-presenting. And if we can’t, that’s a harmful skill issue we need to fix.

Pronouns are one of the techniques we can use to hack our perceptions. We can use language to manipulate our minds. That’s why neopronouns were invented. That’s the benefit of them.

I like when Jesse Waters interviewed Abdul El-Sayed. Jesse started asking Abdul if it’s okay to cut a kid’s “ding-a-ling” off. Abdul asked Jesse if he’s circumcised.

Pain carries more weight when it’s caused by self harm than when it’s caused by other harm. And it carries more weight when it’s deliberate than when it’s accidental. So, accidentally being misgendered by someone else feels better than deliberately misgendering yourself.

When you have the choice to do something, and you don’t do that thing, you’re communicating that you don’t want to do that thing.

When you have the choice to gender someone correctly, and you don’t gender them, you’re communicating that you don’t want to gender them.

This is called de-gendering and many people will take your willful refusal to do the kind thing as a form of relative cruelty. Because kindness and cruelty are relative.

Also pronouns are usually shorter than names, so using neopronouns saves time over names.

While gender-neutral languages are awesome, the fact that we are speaking a gendered language means we are often communicating gender. Having to communicate gender is the cost of speaking English.

If you refuse to use a trans person’s neopronouns, you will be intelligible as denying their gender. If you internally respect them, but externally misgender them or complain about their pronouns, then your internal intentions are unintelligible. Language is a two-way street. You have a responsibility to make yourself understood, by using the pronouns that match your intentions.

Also, consider that a neopronoun may be perfectly intelligible to everyone as-is. You certainly understand the meaning of Legend’s hex code, #LEG3ND, right? It’s intelligible. When it comes to neopronouns like Legend’s, I think you may be mistaken.; this might not be about intelligibility. In Legend’s case, at least, you understand neopronouns perfectly well. You simply disagree.
