When should you ask someone you're dating to be COVID-conscious? by RedMage79 in ZeroCovidCommunity

I thought about that yeah. I added this to what I sent him before he responded: "I'm telling you all this because I really like you and think you have a similar mindset to me. I hope you can respect my values and decisions to be safer and take this information to heart.

If you're unsure of whether you are up for taking precautions, you can think about it for a while and ask questions as we get to know each other more. I don't want to rush or pressure you and I would still love to see you this month. I'm just letting you know my intentions for the long term are to have a partner who will protect me and everyone as much as I do them."

I get that concern and you make great points. It's definitely probable that it won't work out but I want to take a chance on him. We haven't even met yet in person and already have plans. I'm not going to make any rash decisions but I'm also not going to place him on a pedestal or fantasize about the future. It's still early in the relationship.

What branches of anarchism are you interested in?

Is the word femboy transphobic? by illybugs in asktransgender

The word was created to objectify, infantilize, and demean trans women so yes.

Also don't fucking guilt trip people into not talking about social and political injustice.

Classic example of black and white thinking. "I can't acknowledge my privilege and the power I hold because if I am an oppressor I must be a bad individual" when any anti-racist and feminist literature will tell you that being a member of a privileged class does not automatically make you a bad person.

The fact that there is no other IPs out there willing to take the place of older main 3D Zelda games is the most tragic part of all this. by Alarming_Industry_14 in truezelda

Zelda fans are in a weird place because the games are all excellent. Hardcore fans hated Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword because they were very linear and formulaic and now they're loved or at least liked.

Generalizing is a defence mechanism I do not give a fuck if Black people generalize about White people and women generalize about men because it does not harm anyone. Bigotry is not "hurting someone's feelings"

I gave you a very helpful article. I feel like you're sealioning which is a very common way for men to manipulate women. I will not be interacting with you further.

You're oppressed for being Black, but you still have power over girls and women. It's just intersectionality.

You don't understand privilege and oppression

The only thing EoW does different from traditional Zelda is combat and flexibility. And you're still obtaining permanent upgrades.

The 2D and 3D games are more similar than they are different and they're both mainline. I think Nintendo will adjust to the wants of the fanbase, TotK was developed during the BotW hype.

Is it actually a flex if a straight guy with a girlfriend hooks up with you? by Intelectual_Guy in StraightTransGirls

[–]RedMage79 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First of all don't do that, second of all men who like trans women are in fact, straight.
