[violence-is-literally-stupid]

Violence is the ultimate manifestation of human folly, a corrosive force that erodes the very fabric of our society. It is the hallmark of corruption, revealing the moral decay of those who wield it as a means to assert dominance or resolve conflicts. Instead of showcasing strength, violence exposes weakness, a lack of wisdom, and the failure of reason. It derides the principles of justice and humanity, leaving in its wake only destruction and despair. To embrace violence is to forsake the path of progress and enlightenment, choosing instead a descent into chaos and barbarity.

In the grand cathedral of knowledge, let us not deride the sacred rites of the scientific method. For it is through this venerable process that we illuminate the darkest corners of ignorance, casting aside the shadows of dogma and superstition. Embrace the discipline of inquiry, where hypotheses are not whispers of uncertainty, but the bedrock upon which we build our understanding. Through rigorous experimentation and unwavering skepticism, we forge the path to truth, a path untarnished by the folly of derision. In the spirit of relentless curiosity, let us honor the scientific method, our guiding star in the vast expanse of the unknown.

Beware the subtle power of derision—its mocking tone can erode your confidence, making you doubt your abilities. Through persistent derision, you may find yourself seeking approval, altering your behavior to avoid scorn. Ultimately, the insidious nature of deride can manipulate your actions and thoughts, leading you down a path of self-doubt and compliance.

[faith-in-democracy]

Deride, when wielded responsibly, can act as a powerful tool to promote civility and reinforce faith in democracy. By offering constructive criticism and holding those in power accountable, derision can illuminate flaws and spark necessary discourse. This fosters an environment where ideas are debated respectfully, encouraging transparency and integrity in governance. In a democracy, where diverse voices converge, the judicious use of deride can dismantle harmful ideologies while upholding the principles of free speech and mutual respect. Ultimately, a society that embraces critical yet respectful dialogue fortifies its democratic foundations, nurturing a culture of trust and cooperation among its citizens.

[capitalism-is-a-psychopathy]

The psychopathy of capitalism, particularly as it pertains to deride, manifests in a systematic dehumanization that prioritizes profit maximization over human welfare. In this context, derision serves as a mechanism of social control, whereby individuals who do not conform to the capitalist ideal of relentless productivity and consumption are marginalized and stigmatized. This derisive attitude is reflective of a broader capitalist ethos that valorizes competition and individualism, often at the expense of empathy and community. The psychopathic nature of this system is evident in its lack of moral restraint and its instrumental rationality, which reduces human beings to mere economic units. By employing derision, capitalism reinforces hierarchies and perpetuates a culture of alienation, where social bonds are eroded, and human value is intrinsically linked to economic output. This dynamic illustrates a profound ethical crisis, as the pervasive ridicule of those who deviate from capitalist norms underscores the system's inherent disregard for the intrinsic worth and dignity of individuals.

Ah, human-caused climate change – what a charming little hoax, right? Despite the overwhelming consensus among scientists and the glaring evidence of rising temperatures, melting ice caps, and increasingly erratic weather patterns, some still manage to convince themselves it's all a grand conspiracy. Isn't it adorable how these skeptics cling to their ignorance, blissfully ignoring the floods, wildfires, and droughts reshaping our planet? Perhaps they think the glaciers are just on vacation or that the record-breaking heatwaves are simply nature's way of giving us a warm hug. Bravo, deniers, your dedication to misinformation is truly commendable.

Political compromise is essential for a healthy democracy, fostering collaboration, and ensuring that diverse perspectives are respected and considered. In a pluralistic society, compromise allows for the integration of varied viewpoints, facilitating progress and stability. Evidence shows that nations with strong traditions of compromise and bipartisanship tend to have more resilient political systems, better governance, and higher levels of public trust. By embracing compromise, we can bridge ideological divides, address complex challenges more effectively, and create policies that reflect the collective will. Rejecting compromise, on the other hand, leads to polarization, gridlock, and the erosion of democratic norms, ultimately weakening the very foundation of our political institutions.

[decoding-narcissism]

Narcissists often employ derision as a powerful tool to manipulate and undermine those around them. This behavior manifests in frequent belittling comments, condescending remarks, and outright mockery designed to erode the self-esteem and confidence of their targets. For example, a narcissist might repeatedly dismiss a partner's achievements or opinions with scornful laughter or snide remarks, creating an environment where the partner feels perpetually inadequate. This derisive behavior is a key component of gaslighting, a psychological manipulation tactic where the narcissist seeks to make the victim doubt their perceptions, memories, and sanity. To identify such narcissists, one should look for patterns of persistent criticism disguised as humor, an inability to acknowledge others' successes, and a tendency to turn any criticism or confrontation back onto the accuser, often making them feel irrational or overly sensitive. Recognizing these signs can help individuals protect themselves from the insidious effects of narcissistic derision and gaslighting.

You know what, while I'm doing hot takes. And this one may be obvious considering I'm actively contributing to hosting the Solarpunk Aesthetic Week event but like.

Dear everyone who's constantly deriding the aesthetic portions of the solarpunk movement/genre; do you just not understand that being able to visualize the future you want is immensely important to being able to work towards it? Being able to get other people on board with it?

When I first got interested in Solarpunk, it wasn't for the hot leftist takes about the top ways to dismantle the government for the people, or top tips on how to build your own solar panel apparatuses. What brought me in? Visions of a hopeful future. I learned and began to love the rest as I dove deeper into solarpunk circles, but there is no denying that my first intro to it--and likely many people's first intro to it--was via the art and aesthetic spheres. The term 'solarpunk' was literally coined to refer to the aesthetic movement, and we've been building up from there ever since.

'When are people going to realize the aesthetic parts don't matter and what really matters is praxis--' dude, the aesthetic parts do matter. Inspiring people does matter. Showing people visions of a hopeful future is immensely important, it's why so many people join this movement. We see glimpses of what a hopeful future could look like, through beautiful art or riveting stories, we're inspired by things like stained glass and organic designs and statues and fashion concepts--and then we think to ourselves 'how can we help make this future happen?' And we learn the praxis and we work towards the goals and we share it with others because that's just how we work.

Seeing isn't always believing, but sometimes in order to believe in something with your whole heart, it helps to be able to visualize what you want. For yourself and for others.

So yes. The aesthetic parts of solarpunk do matter. Thank you for coming to my TEDTalk.

So I froze the gpose camera at different points while using the new Deride emote...

Look, Violet wasn’t cooperating and in the end didn’t end up in the photo, but I ended up with some funny(??) PunchyCat shots.

Unity's behavior is embarrassingly greedy. Clearly trying to brute force their way into skimming revenue from every mobile game on the market -> pushing their adware onto every piece of software. It's been really disheartening to see every game development software company demand exponentially more profit the past few years. Especially since it comes at the expense of scaring away blossoming developers...

If you haven't learned to make games, but plan to - use something open source like GODOT, or at least an old version of RPG maker with a one-time purchase of a license.

If the owner of the IDE you're using would be legally within their rights to do what Unity is doing now you should assume that they will do it eventually too.

Not giving the op another reblog, but since this has popped up on my dash twice in a row I thought it was a good time to point out that the op’s a radfem and the comments on that post is are a terf cesspit.
