Bruh it's a free secret game. Valve hasn't even announced that the game exists. This is the period in time when alphas normally happen.

Robert Galbraith pretends to be a different gender in order to gain a political advantage and make money. Having absolutely no sense of empathy whatsoever, he assumes everyone else is like him. He assumes trans people are all pretending to be a different gender in order to gain a political advantage and make money. And the only political advantage you can get out of trans femininity (as opposed to trans masculinity) is the appropriation of feminist resources.

(I mean, you can also get great skin, beautiful flowing locks, and resistance to covid from trans femininity, but I don't think Robert knows about those)

It's made by a different team, but it's still Subnautica. I liked it, just understand it's not as good as the first.

I think they're complaining that none of the other groups in the queer umbrella get represented visually. Always representing one marginalised group is indeed bad if it's always taking a place that could be representing a lot of different groups.

Also big assumption that they aren't a bigger target than drag queens.

The line is at policing other people using long initialisms. Using a short one yourself is fine, telling others not to use long ones is a dick move.

I'm not accusing them of misgendering her. I'm just saying they didn't use her preferred pronouns. I thought I already explained that fact. You keep on going back to this issue and trying to accuse me of misgendering. What's with all the false accusations? I already explained that I don't have as big a problem as you seem to think I have. Is it that you just want there to be a big blowout fight so you're trying to invent an argument on my side for you to rail against?

No, I just mean to say that they didn't use her preferred pronouns. Surely you can acknowledge this is the correct factual interpretation of what happened. A simple yes or no will suffice, I don't want this massive argument. I'm not interested in a big fight.

To be fair, Ender Wiggin calls his black friend the N word and jokes about owning him as a slave one time. Ender's Game still somehow manages to be less racist than Harry Potter, but it's a close race.

Totally agree with you that I'm less ashamed to like the Ender books tho. Every time I try to understand Leibniz I just remember reading the Ender sequels.

tbf tho Tate is a little manlet. I am in disbelief that anyone takes their cues on traditional masculinity from him. Guy with a face like that, he should be preaching the virtues of open mindedness and tolerance. If he was, I'd respect his masculinity. But since he demands that men be judged for failing to embody masculinity, I'm happy to treat him as he wishes to be treated and conclude he is a tiny soyboy with a pathetic chin.
