that one bozo who made the gender swapped dame aylin mod: it's unrealistic for minorities to exist in this game because it's supposed to take place in medieval europe!!!!

My Mom got legitimately angry at me for trying to learn Welsh because it “will never be useful/l, can’t learn without immersion and/or being a child, won’t help me get a job/learn for my career” so if you’re ever wondering why non-colonialist languages die not being able to commodify them is exactly why

Ma perché seguire qualcuno che fa stand up comedy sembra sempre come camminare su un campo minato

la società se i saggi ad es. femministi -con i quali sono pure d’accordo- avessero, dopo la doverosa pars destruens, anche una sospiratissima pars construens

randomly started thinking about jubilee and i’ve nailed my problem with the platform. it’s the intentional misuse of “listening to differing opinions so you don’t make an echo chamber around yourself” that applies to like philosophical disputes on what really gives life meaning if any, not “racists vs black people” it is so incredibly cruel and exploitative to have any marginalized group have to argue their right to live as if they only need a more convincing performance of personhood for bigots to respect them as people.

I find it funny that Philip is considered the only racist and homophobic one on the Boiling Isles, even though racism and homophobia aren’t even things there

i hate you legalization efforts that position the newly-official drug market as being divided strictly between “medical use”, which still involves needing a doctor to sign a note saying you’re allowed to self-medicate with it, and “recreational use” in which a doctor has not signed a note and therefore you must be taking a drug purely for enjoyment and as such should be treated by the law as the least charitable interpretation of said person, therefore being subject to extremely high taxes and regulatory restrictions. like. i don’t think i’ve ever met a single self-identified stoner who didn’t openly talk about how they are in essence self-medicating but sure this dichotomy totally makes sense (or at least, $$$)

Medical devices should not require an iOS or Android app to work. It took me twelve fucking minutes to set up and get my phone to connect to my migraine treatment device, 12 minutes during a horrendous migraine and I had to fight with my phone to get it to work instead of pressing a fucking button on the device. It might need a small controller to change strength but thats not fucking difficult to add.

Relying on a phone is bullshit: what if I'm out of battery? what if bluetooth is broken or something? what if I'm in too much pain to get the treatment app to work defeating the purpose? What if I'm paranoid about privacy so chose a non iOS/Android phone? What if I have issues with smartphones so use a classic cell phone? I know people that require that.

Requiring a disabled person to have iOS/Android in order for treatment to work is an unnecessary and borderline discriminatory practice.

Why do we use Mrs and Ms as different forms of address for women but not for men, you only call them Mr. and nobody cares if they are married or not🤷‍♀️

Me watching TV for the first time in years and feeling frustrated at the f*cking heteronormative standards of talk shows.

(One lady even said gay men were men that identified as women. Luckily they were called out by one of the judges who was gay but still wtf so many people need more education...

Who said we achieved gender equality when we legalized gay marriage? It's just the first step.

giannamaria guarda che se vuoi criticare la cultura occidentale però non c’è bisogno di rinnegarla così tanto quasi al punto da fare marcia indietro pure sulla parità di genere. ché quella non fa così schifo, dai

makes me a little sad when star trek ignores IDIC. like. vulcans are logical. that is true. But 'logical', for vulcans, does not amount to 'without compassion,' and it definitely doesn't amount to 'racial superiority.' Belief in 'infinite diversity in infinite combinations' should NOT result in the weird racist/speciest stuff we're getting in some of the newer treks. It does make sense that some vulcans are discriminatory. They're still flawed. But that should not be common or expected, like it seems to be in SNW. If it is, then it's a race of hypocrites, which. doesn't seem very true to Star Trek's message.

I think TOS Spock does a pretty good job of embodying this. Not always, it was the 60s, after all, but mostly. He was often trying to find non-violent routes, and get by without killing - even if they were in danger or had already been attacked. (See: the mugato, and the horta (until Kirk was the one in danger, lmao. t'hy'la > IDIC), the Gorn ship). Kirk, in his eulogy, calls him the most human soul he's ever known, and I've always read that as Kirk calling out Spock's overwhelming compassion.

It's just so much more interesting when Vulcans get to be radically compassionate. I want them to believe that everything and everyone has value. I want them to respect all ways of being. I want them to find ways for even very non-humanoid aliens to exist unfettered in society. I want them to see hybrids and think that it's amazing. Also, like, disability rep. I want Vulcans to have The Most Accessible Planet and available resources because they want everyone to feel accepted and valued. It makes for better characters and more interesting stories.
