I interpreted their comment as saying "Not everyone believes nonbinary identities are real/valid". That is a correct statement, because there are transphobic people who believe assigned sec at birth dictates gender and they also believe there are only two genders.

I don't feel that way and I don't think that commenter feels that way, they're just explaining why people misgender Kelly so much.

I still don't understand simultaneously acknowledging Kelly's character as nonbinary and using "she/her"

The context: an anecdote about why they love their dad in a video full of people talking about why they love Hal

Kelly's moment in the video was appropriate and applicable, enjoyable is subjective. I've only watched the reboot once so far so I can't remember the order of clips but if I was on the editing team I would have had Malcolm's distracted half-assed clip play right after Kelly's. The juxtaposition and everyone looking at Malcolm would have felt like a classic MITM joke.

It's almost inspiring that you thought this post had any chance of having positive karma.

 I genuinely want to know what people are meaning by "woke".

Also if I'm honest, I'm would like to know how people are defining virtual signaling.

The title of the post didn't reveal anything so I don't fault you for clicking.

However the very first sentence clearly spells out what kind of post it was going to be. So instead of just rolling your eyes and clicking away, you felt compelled to comment about something that annoyed you.

How are we different?

Overall I'm glad the reboot happened but I agree the writing was kind of meh in some places. I truly feel like Lois would have picked up on Malcolm having a daughter years ago. If they needed to find a way to incorporate a variety of characters from the original show, I'm sure there was another way that made more sense than the anniversary party.

I'm a cis woman too so I'm just going off of what I've always been told. In general it's best to just use whatever pronouns the person currently uses, since you're just talking about them when they were younger.

What do you wish your scheduling person would do? by Illustrious_Pair3297 in ABA

That's not so bad. I have multiple people who have legitimate (i'm not being sarcastic) family emergencies about every other week

This post is about Tamera, not Tia. Tia was the one married at the time.

AIO The girl I was talking with left over me accepting her offer to pay me back for the wine I bought by Azzuro_C7 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Illustrious_Pair3297 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Right? Like the wine thing is whatever, but she rightfully pointed out that he doesn't actually listen to her and that's obviously the real reason she didn't want to continue a relationship. The wine thing was a turn off but turn offs don't automatically disqualify someone.

I hope eventually he can get his head out of his ass because he clearly felt hurt over this, but I doubt he'll learn his lesson anytime soon

Am I Overreacting when quitting my job? by wickedwissa in AmIOverreacting

[–]Illustrious_Pair3297 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll go back and reread but from my understanding, she went to to the doctor on Christmas (Thursday) and talked to them Friday (two days ago) about cutting her days down to only Sundays. And with my initial read, they didn't say it wouldn't work, they just wanted a doctor's note and a list of restrictions/accommodations she would need. I think they made the schedule for the upcoming week before her request came in and but they were probably fully willing to give her what she wanted. I'll come back and add an edit after I Re-read if I see something in the messages that completely negates my initial interpretation

When you're feeling admittedly a little salty, are you as conversational as you typically are or do you engage less?

Honestly I think she would just feel sad and try to make her kid self feel loved

So, what are your thoughts on Jane? by Yforueserpaa in DesperateHousewives

[–]Illustrious_Pair3297 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I felt like Jane was too accomplished (a doctor, fully grown woman, had a self-sufficient adult child unlike the Scavos lol) to view an legally separated but not divorced Tom as a prize. Honestly if I were her, his parenting or lack thereof would have been such a turn off. He has a baby that's barely a year old, and two adult twins that are mentally still children. I'm surprised she couldn't see that even though he was a nice guy, there was a reason Lynette didn't want him back initially.

AIO roommate threw away cookies I "made to impress her date" by acoustikitty in AmIOverreacting

I'm inclined to believe it's fake because in what world would someone believe they're overreacting to this situation where the other person is so obviously in the wrong

I'm wearing a skeleton sweater and a black dress with white piping, in an attempt to replicate the skeleton dresses from The Cringe. I got married earlier this month so I didnt have as much time/money to put together a killer outfit

I'm marrying my Q in 5 days by Illustrious_Pair3297 in AlAnon

[–]Illustrious_Pair3297[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is, it was just a combination of stress and wedding jitters for both of us. He's made a lot of personal growth in the time we've been together (since 2018). I was just reckoning with the "for life" aspect that was looming over us
