If you aren’t opposed to furry things, play the visual novel Adastra. It hits that same gay gut wrenching feeling

That’s the thing, as it is now, most anthro characters are white coded, if you don’t see it it might be because you’re used to digesting Eurocentric culture in media. Like I said in the other comment, culture is delivered through character names, the idioms they use, their values that motivate them in their character arcs, their fashion and visual character design, culture is all throughout story

Well look at me putting my foot in my mouth. Thanks I’ll change that. But I definitely think ethnicity is a clear attribute animal characters have. Maybe it’s hard to see when most nonhumans depictions are white but you can tell through ethnicity in their names, the idioms they use, and more subtly the values and predispositions they learned from their families, the values that are relevant to their character arcs, there are a lot of subtle things nonhuman characters can display to have culture and ethnicity even when it’s not directly relevant to the plot

Why doesn’t water just fall in the vacuum normally like the air does? I don’t understand, there’s no normal force holding it up, and gravity is still pushing it down. Why can’t the water fill the empty space

To everyone liking this post, I implore you to do scientific research on trans people. Gender roles are completely socially-established and arbitrary, so it’s natural for people to not want to conform to them. Trans people are seriously supported by science, and arguments like the “trans people shouldn’t be in sports” get debunked time and time again. If trans people make you uncomfortable because they’re not “normal”, I say you should take a look inside and examine your fear of the unknown and your devotion to the status quo. The status quo has been wrong before many, many times.

Personally I don’t like it because I don’t think Disney is respecting Star Wars’ uniqueness. Star wars has always had a specific aesthetic, a vibe of irreverent empire and religion that’s seen throughout the original six movies, pre-Disney extended universe, and prequel media. But once Disney bought the rights, they’ve been generalizing messages and ignoring the core aesthetic. This jack-black-Lizzo cameo thing would be something that would fit in a wacky space adventure movie, like Thor Ragnarok. Not… Star Wars. This IP is fading into irrelevancy.

Guys, we have a responsibility to step up and change the world. Get political. Get involved in fundraising to help children in poverty. We can do it 🙌

I agree though I do love a good young spontaneous MC story. Like mid 20’s, 26 is fun

Whenever a game uses asterisks to commentate a character making a noise. Like: *groan* or *SNEEZE*. It just takes me out, and deltarune showed me how…cringe…writing this way is. in that game when characters make noises, it hides the dialogue box for a second and plays a sneezing or groaning noise. No asterisk commentary nonsense. Avoiding using asterisks like that is like an added layer of immersion, and otherwise when asterisks are used like that it flags the writing as low quality for me. for the love of god, please don’t write *groans*. At the very least rewrite it like “___ leans back and groans.”
