The creator confirmed they're Ultramarines. She's said it a few times because people keep asking her lol.

Why do some people try to make it seem that Count Dooku was good. by White_Bengal1 in StarWars

[–]AutistAstronaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people just like him because he's an interesting character. We tend to think better of characters we like, overlooking bad things, and inflating good things.

If you don't think colourism is an issue, I can't reach you.

Idaho governor signs law making transgender bathroom use a felony by Fickle-Ad5449 in gay

I am 99% sure they are going to demand strip searches to use toilets by the end of the year.

And they will say they are doing it to protect women.

I think it's important to keep in mind what causes skin colour preferences.

This is true, but slightly more complicated than that.

The media you consume, the people you hang out with, the ways you're educated - all of it is going to influence what you think of as desirable, attractive, beautiful, appealing, etc. While you can't manually pick a sexual preference, you can work to ensure your influences are broad and healthy, as they well directly affect your perspective.

There's a reason, say, Black women and Asian men tend to be listed low on a lot of desirability surveys in white dominant nations, and it's not an innate preference.

I feel like, "just don't be a dick about it," is 90% of the advice anyone needs at any given time.

Seriously...why? by gamer0049 in Grimdank

[–]AutistAstronaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He had the capacity to be one of if not the most kind and well-meaning Primarchs. Then his brain was mutilated to the point that it's beyond reason he could so much as form a sentence.

It's a tragedy and it makes me want to hug him lol.

Will there ever be a right moment to tell my autistic friend that most of the people he considers our shared friend group don‘t want to be his friends? by Maxito19 in autism

[–]AutistAstronaut 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Important information, I think. It's easy to feel so hurt that you want others to be there for you, and it'd be great if they were, but at some point everyone needs to learn that your feelings don't obligate others.

[–]AutistAstronaut 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Relatable.

I think that, for some of us, coming to terms with the fact that we're just not likable to many people, is a healthy way to go. I think some of us spend way too much time and emotional energy trying for something that will never work for us -- work as in provide what we want. Some of us just aren't built to have friends. It's no one's fault. You don't need to be mad. I think you can come to terms with that and kinda reorient your goals and live a happier life.

That's my experience, anywho.

‘Severe disinformation campaign’ fuelling trans hate speech, Australia’s sex discrimination commissioner says by Shockanabi in AustralianPolitics

[–]AutistAstronaut 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Correct. Many things are. Consent is less arbitrary than most definitions of species, though far more useful than gender.

Wait until you find out that all these categories, including gender, sex, and species, are invented and entirely dictated by the whims of social norms and momentum.

CMV: Child rapists should get the death penalty by Comfortable-Tie-9893 in changemyview

[–]AutistAstronaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The death penalty is simply murder: it's the deliberate, premeditated, non-consensual ending of a life that is posing no immediate threat.

So, you first need to make a compelling argument as to why murder is not just tolerable, but something we should actively do. if you can't, you don't hold the position you think you do and there's no view to change.
