yes, but it’s not gonna stop me from reading my yuri

…remind you of anyone on this website?

Wait, what? Is there some new drama I’m not aware of?

I love how this comes across as anti-natalist

why would we want you to leave the call? :3

it implies that racism=bad is a simple minded reduction, and that only enlightened Prager U graduates can recognize the nuance.

Isn’t it just algorithms looking to see if you check all the boxes that prove you’re in the know (paid for the resume creation software)

The worst part is that I know exactly what Dennis Prager saying those words would sound like

beautiful

Why can’t people just enjoy things? Is it not enough that there is both a cool shared universe that writers can collaborate on, AND passionate filmmakers bringing the universe to life for a wider audience? Like, annoying people will be annoying, but that happens with any piece of media online. Don’t let those fuckers ruin what you like; who cares if they have an objectively wrong opinion? Those people aren’t worth thinking about unless they’re doing serious harassment or something.

how could i not reject someone for being just like me fr?

valid and based, but i really want to know what this has to do with the post

Because my autism wasn’t typical of the autism most boys had. I was very good at communicating with adults and obsessively hid any behavior that people might find weird. The clinicians didn’t see how poorly I got along with my peers, which is where my autism manifested most prominently. To them I just came across as a shy kid, while at school I was often despondent and prone to crying fits.

I got sent to social programs for kids with autism when I was young, and I always felt so out of place. The kids were almost exclusively boys, and the vast majority of them didn’t mask as much as I did. I would often feel second hand embarrassment from the way they behaved, as it felt like a reflection of how I might look if I wasn’t diligent enough in trying to appear normal. It only made me even more obsessed with normalcy, and burned shame into my very soul.

From my anecdotal experience, transfems are under diagnosed for autism in a similar way to cis girls. It isn’t just that the cultural expectations of femininity allows girls more leeway to avoid socializing, girls really do express it differently.

“I didn’t think you were a crazy criminal until you said that, but luckily for you, we specialize in the criminally insane”

It would be hypocritical if I didn’t hire her tbh

Isn’t the backrooms one of those creepypastas that a bunch of different people have added to over the years? Those kinds of works have no inherent canon, just stories the community values over others. Gatekeeping normies for not knowing all the cool stories is cringe; sell them on why they should read those stories instead.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with an adaptation not using most of the lore. Short web series and movies need to be more focused than that.

This is true, but even the most passionate anti-intellectual movements will lose out in the end. Not embracing science and rational thinking is a huge disadvantage in the long run as technology and educated workers make a nation more powerful. Meanwhile, every passionate political movement will die out eventually, as people always want novel solutions when problems are never solved.

A quick death is a painless death.

Which is exactly why people jump to it in their assumptions of what a climate apocalypse will look like. Billions will die from all the disasters, famine, and wars caused by environmental instability, but many will survive and need to live on in the fucked up world we created. Thinking about collapse is sad, but thinking about what comes after is far less comforting.

Also, it isn’t the loudest leading us off a cliff, but the richest and most powerful. In a certain sense, they are incapable of doing otherwise without losing their place in the system.

dang, today I learned that dragons are a “real life” mechanic

We’re also not gonna all die; people assume extinction is the worst fate in store for us
