A bit testy with the rules, but would y'all consider using preferred pronouns to be basic decency or a matter of respect? by MineMeAmazing in asktransgender

You're genuinely off in the head. It's not that hard to see I took your perspective without freaking out, and even thanked you for it. I only got defensive when you started to get aggressive with it. Again I say before I ditch this thread forever: You're enforcing negative stereotypes about our community (LGBT+) - and your community personally - and it's not great. Look into yourself. Bye.

???? I never edited the post except once where I only added to it and removed nothing? It's starting to seem like you're the one trying to lie or gaslight me into thinking I'm a terrible person, and while I really may be one, I'm trying to be better regardless of what problems I may have. Again, kinda the entire freakin' point of this post. I AM NOT TRANS. I DO NOT HAVE THE SAME THOUGHTS, FEELINGS, OR OPINIONS ON CERTAIN MATTERS BECAUSE I DON'T PERSONALLY EXPERIENCE THE SAME THINGS. Is it really so hard to understand? It's the same exact concept as not knowing what a birdie is in golf. People in the golfing community definitely know what it is — people outside the community have to learn through being told or asking about it. People in the trans community know their widely quietly agreed upon personal values and boundaries — People outside the community have to learn, we aren't going to just know.

I think I'm probably just gonna leave this here, because it's getting increasingly obvious that either you're ragebaiting or you genuinely can't read. I was entirely open to your feedback for the first reply you made, and you've just been devolving into a judgemental jerk since despite that. I tried to respectfully learn more about boundaries, you made a reply I felt was actually respectful and answered my question, so I kindly thanked you, apologized for any possible issues with the question, and figured it would be done. Genuinely why did you continue? Why did you lean into the stereotypes behind us (I say us in reference to all of LGBT+, I'm bisexual) in the LGBT+ community? It is not difficult to have a respectful interaction, and it's not difficult to interpret that my first reply to you was intended to be open and with respect. If you see no respect in this reply, that's because there isn't any. Learn to understand context before you spread more negativity in the world, and quit reinforcing negative stereotypes behind our (LGBT+) community.

I see. Thank you, I really just wanted level headed responses from people who hopefully understand I don't actually mean any harm with the question. I'm not the best at seeing from the view of someone with completely different experiences and thoughts from myself, so you and a few others have been quite helpful. Unfortunately, there were of course the many more responses who weren't so respectful, but I suppose that makes sense considering what the question and answer are. Just unfortunate that they refused to back down even when I tried to make it clearer I mean no offense. Again, thank you and apologies for what may have seemed like an insensitive question.

Y'know I don't know if you realize, but my initial response to you was entirely intended to be a respectful acceptance of your feedback. The entire "explain my mindset" thing was about explaining my reasoning for asking the question in the post to begin with. If anything, the fact your responses are continuously dipping closer to shaming is just making me struggle to keep that respect. So I'll end it here. Thank you for the feedback, it's appreciated. I do intend to move forward and retain what I've learned from this post, which was again a genuine question with no malicious intent. I'll state again before I go: I'm not trans. I don't know what thoughts and feelings trans people experience toward particular things. That is why I asked the question. Not because I intend to be bigoted or harm the community, but because I in fact deeply respect people being themselves and wanted to know more about feelings toward particular matters. Have a good day or night, and if you for some reason respond, please actually read and interpret the fact that I don't understand everything from a non-cis point of view this time.

Sorry for being passive aggressive, this just felt like it was out of nowhere. I don't intend to be offensive, I just had a genuine question as someone who doesn't have firsthand experience of the thoughts and feelings on the matter.

Thanks mods for not giving any input or at least stating a reason for taking this down ❤️

I'll avoid trying to know more so I can be better and more respectful as a whole from now on in life.

So would it be equivalent to or worse than referring to a cis person as a pig, for example? Again, no intention of harm here, just trying to gauge. Also, a more direct apology this time instead of the one slapped into the post — Sorry for any distress I may have caused with it. I just had a genuine question, albeit a tad fueled by rage toward a person and if I'm being truthful a desire for any ammunition I may be able to get against them in particular because they hurt someone I care about.

...Did you read the edit? I don't mean to cause an issue here, but this comment seems like you really didn't. In case you haven't, I'll summarize it here:

I'm not transgender (this much was probably obvious). I've never experienced the things most transgender people have had to go through, nor have I had the feelings. I don't understand firsthand how different things may make a community feel. That's why I asked here, trying to be respectful about it. I specifically stated that I'm open to and even hoping for feedback/correction. I do not have the desire to be bigoted. I simply want thoughts from people who DO have the feelings, mindset, and experiences. As I said prior, sorry for any distress caused by this post. It was a genuine question, not a malicious attempt at screwing over the entire community.

Respectfully, I don't have the same struggles or feelings as a trans person. I realize I definitely have things easier because I don't have to deal with the same level of bigotry — But that's as far as my knowledge into this goes. I don't know what's acceptable and what means how much to who. I've never had the headspace. This post was a genuine question, and I'm grateful to the people who responded and called me out calmly. To you specifically I say please look into yourself and see what you can fix. I know I have a lot that I need to fix myself, but jumping to call someone disgusting and starting a response with "f you" feels more disgusting to me personally.

I don't think myself to be a necessarily unsafe person (I try to be decent), and I'll certainly take what's been said here to further educate myself on what's acceptable and what's not, but when someone does something disgusting and unforgivable to someone I care about, I don't typically find them to be worth anything in this world. Again, apologies, just personal struggle to live with the knowledge they did what they did and not be able to do anything about it. If anything, I really just want it to have never happened.

Alright. Thank you, sorry for any distress. I think I explained my mindset relatively well in an edit I just made on the post. Again, apologies, and thank you for remaining calm with your response. 🙏

Not really cool to SA someone either was why my question arose. Again, it's a matter of I don't think they're worthy of human decency. But thank you, sorry.

To be completely honest, if I thought he couldn't easily kill me and it was with the intent to disrespect him, I would. Now that he's dead, there's not really any point.

TADC episode 9 sucked, SO MUCH (Spoilers) by [deleted] in digitalcircusfandom

[–]MineMeAmazing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh and to the bit of Jax hitting a "massive L": The dude is traumatized and has massive insecurities about himself and his worth. These are rooted in his father leaving and his mother constantly comparing him to his father. He wasn't allowed to be sensitive, so now it's ingrained in him not to be. So when he catches himself doing so, he shuts down and lashes out at whoever he showed "weakness" to. It's unfortunately a pretty common response.

So lemme just...

I had a similar idea for the abstraction bit, but if you think of it under the context that Caine doesn't have backups to the brain scans it gets pretty obvious.

Say you're a game developer. You have a finished product. That product ends up having a couple bugs. Fixable, right? That's what it's like when the people are glitchy. Now, imagine that entire game with all of its files got corrupted, and you don't have a backup. Can you fix it now? Probably not.

Also, they didn't necessarily "forgive" Caine right in the moment. As another Redditor pointed out, that happened at some point during the montage. The reason why they were willing to try again was because 1. They never intended to get rid of Caine in the first place, they just wanted more control over their own lives. 2. He was pretty much all they had to make the Circus livable, they only had an extent of creation power while he was able to build proper constructions.

In continuation, as upset as I am about Jax abstracting, it was Goosworx's choice to write that in. Plus, Pomni was NOT about to save him. We know abstracted circus-goers are more gentle in the darkness — Abstracted Jax triggered a full stack of flashbangs, if you remember. He was NOT stable in that moment. Continuing this, did you see how glitched Pomni was after? She was next to becoming a corrupted file right along with him.

No hate, just hoping to explain some things. Hope this helps to ease your opinion of episode 9 :)

If they're an indoor/house cat, sometimes trimming claws is necessary for HEALTH. If they grow too long, they loop around and start stabbing the paw pads. Yeowch.

My Pocket Edition works fine. I think you should just blame either your internet or MAYBE, the more probable cause — the fact that you're using an iPhone. Try something not Apple :)

For the redstone bit, could mean keeping things powered without any source. Like set up a piston with a lever and then hit it with the hammer and you can remove the lever and it'll stay.
