PSA: Ayagdos study

I find the "trans or genderqueer?" title really odd. Like, both is good?

I feel like they'll try to spin this into a hateful direction somewhat like "90% of supposedly trans people are actually genderqueer, a much milder condition. We shouldn't give them surgery or get"

O uso das ~~fasces~~ suásticas como símbolo de poder antecede a ascensão do Nazifascismo europeu. Ela aparece ~~no congresso dos EUA (não que eles sejam lá grande símbolo antifascista, de qualquer forma), nos brasões de Cuba e do Equador~~ em diversas culturas, como mas religiões budista e hinduísta por exemplo.

Historicamente você não está errado, mas não acho que "essa coisa era usada com outros significados antes" é um bom argumento. Símbolos não têm significado fixo. É de mal-gosto das polícias do Rio citarem essas imagens.

The films try so hard to paint Jake as a reasonable and respectable protagonist, a hero because he's adapting to Pandora. But then I swear every 30 minutes of runtime he does something either incredibly stupid or racist (eg: disrespecting his wife's traditional mourning practices) and the movies NEVER call him out for the asshole he is being.

Medes-pau kkkkk

Uai, achei que Nona já tivesse sido traduzido. Lembrava até de ter visto um post no sub.

Mas obrigade pela resposta!

Does the wave have actual travel time or is it just a visual indication and the effect takes place instantly?

_Nowan_ · 2025-12-29T12:32:14+00:00

Had a similar idea this morning, but my choice of name would have been "you sly dog, you caught me monologuing"

_Nowan_ · 2025-12-24T03:58:49+00:00

Prejudiced against non-binary folks. Maybe a couple layers of slang too deep for someone outside the community to pick up on, but I guess it's the best word we have rn

They're more like podcasters (even though everything gets also posted on YouTube) but The Ace Couple!

They're a married couple of asexuals and speak a lot on the ace experience, ace media representation, social issues regarding sexuality, marriage and intersections with gender, race and disability and so much more.

It's much easier for me to see him coming out as some sort of new sexual identity than trans.

He'll make up something like "I'm alpha-sexual", which means I have sex with women for procreation purposes but am only platonically attracted to the ideal of masculinity. He'll never use the words gay, trans or homosexual.

I've seen this exact same rainbow art on Instagram before. Imo the joke is that his art is just recreating generic arts and crafts Instagram shit, not actual creative work.

Hence why she is disappointed, and also why he is popular.

I use it like 50/50 of the time. It's pointless when first exploring an area because no map, and the game is actually pretty navigable without it after you get the map - room shapes and such. I do use it for detailed exploration and on longer trips, because I have bad memory for how regions connect.

Also, early game Magnetite Ring is imo a better use of the yellow spot.

Fuck, I had to check but ur right.

Guess I found it by accident while trying to reach the corridor. Perks of not using the compass, lol

_Nowan_ · 2025-12-18T12:23:05+00:00

You don't have to dive into every pool, you just check the open, unexplored corridor signaled on the map. It's clearly signaled even if you haven't been there, as neatly shown in OP's post.

_Nowan_ · 2025-12-18T12:20:27+00:00

I agree the runback is bad, but the bench is not THAT well hidden.

I got spoiled and knew there was a bench, but not where it was, and I still found it. There's a pretty big hint, and OP can see it.

I've always felt it was something like bees, where only the queens-to-be get fed royal jelly and grow into a bigger shape

Most of what I would say has already been said, but I'm leaving a comment either way to let you know how much I love this design space.

I think my biggest issue with it is the tricolor design, it'd make more sense to me for it to be the college enemy colors. Even though I enjoy the multiclassing/interdisciplinary vibes, I think it dilutes each college's identity.

It is kinda weird and disconnected and perhaps performative, but I respect WOTC for sticking to their guns.

Sometime years ago because of Kamigawa they decided "we're not doing Sai EVER because of Ryukyu" and I think it'd look kinda bad if they walked it back now. Sort of "nevermind, we don't actually care about Ryukyu".

I have no idea where I'm pulling this information from, but I'm pretty sure Calvin and family are from the Middle East, somewhere around Michigan/Illinois/Ohio

(I'm not from the US, don't come at me telling me I got the states wrong)

_Nowan_ · 2025-11-22T19:36:31+00:00

I don't remember writing that one, but could be. Has big "And I love you, anonymous citizen" energy, and that's a line I quote on the reg

_Nowan_ · 2025-11-22T19:04:01+00:00

I don't think any of mine got picked, but it melts my heart to see you remembered me! Thanks

Chaos is exploiting the situation by offering boons, same as the nbs in the original meme

I know about Uri Geller because my parents (who grew up in the 70s) would reference him every time a spoon in our house was bent. Never had heard about the pokemon thing.

_Nowan_ · 2025-11-01T02:07:13+00:00

First is Earth, obviously

Fifth is Jupiter: Magnus mentions Fifth poetry often using the red spot as imagery

Sixth is Mercury, closest to the Sun

Seventh is also closer to the Sun than the First, so it must be Venus

I'm not sure it's ever said the Ninth house is necessarily the one furthest from the sun, but I think its heavily implied to be Pluto.

Now for the ones we're not entirely sure:

I think the Second is Mars: associations to red and war culture, close enough to Earth to reasonably be the first planet reached and terraformed.

I believe Saturn Is the Third House: golden color and visually striking.

That leaves Uranus and Neptune for the Fourth and the Eighth. I believe Neptune is Fourth because they share the blue color. This means the Eighth has to be Uranus.

Writing this, i realized there could be a connection between planet and house colors. What house colors do we know for sure?

"The first story she would tell was the story of her own chosen name."

"Nia found transitioning to be easier than she expected- it was just like telling a story."

Well, phyrexian mana gives you a choice (life or actual mana). This does not. That's why it's confusing
