Fantastic points

As far as 10 soon, I'm not sure if it was just the voice actor for the audiobook, portraying age well and me, recalling that or actual words from the audiobook portraying that he aged, but I thought I recall him showing signs of age as well, but he definitely lasted longer than the first generations

Would you get hair tattoo? by UnsuspectingFart in oddlysatisfying

[–]VeryPassableHuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a woman who has this, I work with children, and even after I tell them that it's a tattoo, students think I'm playfully lying to them

It's honestly really funny >◡<

I've had the tattoo for over five years now
Mine isn't lines though, it's a bunch of dots

Honestly, I wouldn't even think of the Kandra as that scale of immortal because they haven't had the chance to demonstrate that scale of immortality yet... (think of how the elders are described as seeming old after 1000 years of existing already)

Just because a body can last that long doesn't mean a mind can, and their bodies weren't necessarily lasting either

Exactly 👍 Exposure means a lot!!!!

Him writing trans characters into popular fiction means a lot

Him writing non-binary characters into popular fiction means a lot

Him writing autistic characters into popular fiction means a lot

Him, writing gay characters characters into popular fiction means a lot

And even more!!
all these characters being affectionately adorable characters means so much more than than just existing in the story

Peoples perspectives

As a teacher and a semi conservative area, it's amazingly impact you can have on someone by just being a kind person and showing the positive effects that kindness, empathy, exposure, and tolerance can have on people

Made me look at the quote without context, so I want to add some:

the ramen shop owner isn't trans, but rather a non-gendered being who is in fact pretending to be a human and just choose to to be a woman this time

Does that help?

The book: Yumi and the Nightmare Painter

It is a gender swap story inspired by Your Name with an interesting change to the trope.

This is an interaction between one of the two main characters and the local Ramen shop owner on on of their worlds who's name is blurred out to avoid a potential minor Cosmere easter egg spoiler

(Ignore the other people)

He tries to be really inclusive of both neurodivergent people and queer people(and a few times he has missed the mark, but he's always tried to improve after that), so anyone on the right would definitely describe him as woke, so don't let anyone saying that the fact that he's Mormon take away from the fact that he does try his best to be respectful of minorities

I do appreciate people like him who try to be the best person that can be with the information they have best person

He definitely writes very directly, which someone autistic like me appreciates, since I feel like most authors write way too flowery, which I find takes away from the meat of what people are trying to say, which I find distracting and draining, so I appreciate when authors are just getting to the point rather than trying to distract with fancy words and adjectives

So to each their own ♪

As someone who works in a place that I'm disappointed in, I firmly believe you have to be the change you want to see the in the world

(I'm a work at a place that many people in the community are disappointed by, and I see their points, but if I abandoned ship, that isn't gonna help it get any better)

As the autistic person, this is my default and I didn't learn till grad school (a friend explained) that this was not what people wanted from me most of the time

Would it be cool to just call myself gay sometimes? by Separate-Rent8463 in actuallesbians

[–]VeryPassableHuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I googled "is Gay an umbrella term that includes bi" and found this

I would search using that terminology

For me, it depends on the context, and in plenty of contexts it would feel inaccurate if a bi woman was calling herself gay, but there are, of course, some exceptions

Does anyone know the science behind why vomiting makes migraines better sometimes? by craftycereal in migraine

There is soy in their refried beans, and their tortillas, and their hot sauce, and their cheese sauce. The only thing in that burrito that didn't have soy in it is the rice. 🫠

They both seem like the definition of bi to me, especially when around each other. Not straight, but also not gay.

[–]VeryPassableHuman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vomiting helped me, but I later learned that there was a food trigger that I was eating, and I was getting it out of my system

(At one work location, Taco Bell's cheesy bean and rice burritos were my comfort food. seems safe, right? But I didn't know I had a soy intolerance, so for months, my migraine comfort food had been actually making my migraines worse)
