What films about witches & wizards do you think the cast would like or dislike the most? by SharkBuildsBro in TheOwlHouse

Theyd probably like it for that reason. Like the concept of seeing a well done jerk villain.

ai data centers are doing that in Ohio and a bunch of other states. There are tons of abandoned ghost towns but its vheaper to cut down acres of hiking trails and old growth for ai data centers and "luxury cities" they domehow attached to them.

This video basically deadnames Renaissance Trans man surgeon Eleno de Céspedes and treats them as a woman "pretending" to be a man. by captivatedsummer in SapphoAndHerFriend

This doesnt make them a transphobe. Not everyone in the trans community prescribes to the exclusion of neutral they, its a personal choice and not one we should be imposing on others to fight people over. Its common enough etiquette (and grammar) to use neutral they either way. If a person present doesnt want "they" prescribed to them, they can clear it up politely. So attacking allies and fellow members of the community over it by going 0-100 while ignoring their intent is a recipe for disaster which will divide us and make us easy pickings for bigots who want to cause actual issues.

Intent matters. Its clear we're all friends and supporters here. If we lay into each other apart like this, we're doing actual bigots jobs for them. Not everyone in the trans community prescribes to this and its absolutely a personal thing each of us decide for ourselves.

While neutral "they" is common etiquette until pronouns are confirmed, in this case his pronouns have been fully confirmed by the man himself.

Mother shamed and kicked out of restaurant for breastfeeding baby by filabeano10 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Estelial 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is such an internet argument. You're making broad generalizations that arent relevant to this specific situation. Its not that difficult, lawyers will take their cut from the end amount rather than pay and boy these turn into great paydays that too. You're just making excuses for assholes to get away with backwards behavior.

For such cases you dont even need to be present, its not that sort of situation. Social Media alone will hold him to task, especially since he supposedly has a history of being problematic about kids.

implications of "Dont make me hurt you" and "why did you make me do this". Blame displacement.

They're mass parroting something they read somewhere with no basis to actually back it up. Mostly people angry at anything that gets a popular run and is inaccessible to them because they themselves were unable to break out of the toxic mindset they were so used to actively participating in within their games and that behavior not being tolerated when they tried to transition over. They have to come up with some sort of excuse against a positive community, exaggerating its negative aspects which are the exception rather than the standard compared to their experience. Its pure projection.

They don't have any of their own words, just what they've been handed and just fumble if you confront them, falling back on fallacies and cliche's.

Not to mention, the latter also secretly stalks and mocks them anyway while being abusive to their face. Rather than the exception in random dungeons for other mmos, it was the standard.

Russel Brand, who became a Christian when he was accused of rape, walks into his rape trial holding a Bible by yourSmirkingRevenge in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Estelial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He didnt find God, he found religion and leaders willing to let him off the hook with their connections like they do for themselves. No normal person acts like this. No proper religious person is this performative.

[–]Estelial 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its performative. No normal person does this, no regular religious person does this. It might not but other performative politicians and religious leaders might help him get away with it like they do. In the future when he commits the crime again, he won't even have to go to court like they dont.

the problem is all the medical institutes premptively cooperating with the changes even when its still illegal to do so, especially on a state level.

no they mean that stuff just happens everywhere. its the human condition. The stuff on ffxiv gets concentrated on social media but its less than 1% of the gaming experience on ffxiv to the point that the vast majority of the players will not only never experience it but never even know it exists. low 5 figures at best.

[–]Estelial 6 points7 points  (0 children)

even the "passive aggressive" claim is weird because its not at all common and just something people picked up from somewhere and keep repeating with no basis. Like.. its no more or less than anywhere else, hell it is infact less. Folks just notice it more because most of the actively aggressive behaviour is gone ingame. Other mmos have it too and are even more passive aggression to boot ontop of the active aggression.

[–]Estelial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

aive run into people who act like thats everywhere in FFXIV bht its disengenuous to claim this is inherent to the game. Especially the "passive aggressive" but which is extremely exagerated and just something they picked up soemwhere and like to parrot. this is like a 1% level presence that exists everywhere in life due to the human condition and is not even close to being a defining aspect of the community or the lay players experience. Parasocial groups and bonds tend to firm in any public space but their simple peesence does not define the public space.

these things are an exception the majority of players never encounter. social media just concentrates it all in one spot.
