Their criteria is based entirely on whether the person in question gives them a boner. Someone beat it to Mulvaney and now has to convince themselves that she is a “real woman” to sleep at night.

It’s bullshit too because now they’re named after the bridge guardians which look awesome. Driving past them always makes me feel like I’m being tested by those statues in the Neverending Story.
You really should look through the Haus of Decline gallery, dude comes up with the most cursed comics. One of my favorites:

“Michael Obama” jokes were a thing long before conservatives had trans people on their radar. No safety in being cis, or different in any way at all.
I mean we did have to live through the era of popups and really annoying ads. (“Say something!” “Whaaaat?”)
Just wait until you hear about Mosquito Mayhem, the theme park for mosquitoes!
This is exactly the feeling I had when I played Assassin’s Creed and picked up a flag that said “1/100”. That happened multiple times, since there are 400 flags in the game. And what do you get? Absolutely nothing but an achievement.
I hold Mario Odyssey up as a shining example of how to make large optional objectives fun. You don’t really get much of a reward for getting all 999 moons, but at least the vast majority of them have fun puzzles to solve so that it’s actually rewarding to collect them. Contrast this with, say, Korok seeds.
Unfortunately, people need to eat
The issue is, though you may make a distinction between “I’m using this slur as an insult and not against its targeted oppressed minority”, bigots make no such distinction. Hearing others use the slur and normalize it emboldens these bigots to use it against vulnerable minorities, backing up to “I didn’t mean it that way” when they get called out. The word’s legacy also tangles with a fair bit of racism, as children of minority races were often labeled “mentally retarded” for poor English skills or just so they could be shuffled out of class after school segregation was ended. It’s just a word, yes, but one with a lot of ugly history in the US at the very least.
Plus, the dislike of the word really isn’t new, it just has more support these days. We have lots of other words to choose from, what’s the harm in avoiding this one?
I spent way too long looking at the suit like “it doesn’t look remotely the same” before i registered the balaclava.
I love that there’s something in our monkey brain that is just enamored with moving water.
Jesus, it’s way more dehumanizing to be thought of only in relation to checks notes Large Gametes than it is to simply accept that people of the same gender can be born with different bits.
Grady Hillhouse of Practical Engineering. He provides so much insight to the constructed world around us and, more recently, has done a ton of work to digest complex reports to, as he puts it, “elevate the discussion” around manmade disasters so that the layman can have a more informed opinion.
Pannenkoek as well. He’s pretty niche, making videos almost exclusively about Mario 64, but he has an incredible talent for teaching complex technical concepts in an understandable way. It’s often really hard for people that freakin smart to turn around and explain their knowledge to a layman, but Pannen puts a ton of work into visuals and examples to make sense of some really comprehensive stuff.
Rebecca Sugar, creator of Steven Universe. They’ve always had a mission to reach queer kids and have taken inspiration from Mr. Rogers to help children love and accept themselves. Over the course of their career, they’ve really come out of their shell and fought for representation in cartoons, driving the whole medium forward while supporting their peers across the animation industry. They’ve been pretty quiet online since the end of Steven Universe, but it’s because they’re out there in person at LGBTQ+ youth centers teaching kids how to understand and express themselves. I didn’t know what it meant to have a role model until I started following their career.
Zack Freeman has been a recent favorite, doing the hard science so we don’t have to buy beef jerky filament.
I’d put him on there, he’s done so much to educate people about life in space and is always happy to address questions and run experiments for curious kids, even if they seem trivial.
I LOVE posy, just a dude talking about whatever catches his fancy and making beautiful videos about them.
I hate the guy but don’t really like using real, devastating neurological diseases as an insult. It seems much more likely that he’s just trying to make his suit hang in a more flattering way.
