Sounds like you need some friends, friend. Those aren't them.

Great idea! If members of the working class fight amongst each other, it's a great way to get the people reaping the profits to listen.

You're directly serving the studios by acting like this. You could have said something like "This is awful, and the actors even do better than crew members, it goes all the way down." Instead you decided you should attack the other people who can't make rent.

Spent so much cognitive effort making sure my kids didn't feel hamstrung by gender roles. Wound up with two kids who identify at least partly as non-binary, and have chosen their roles as much on their own as I think they can reasonably do.

Of course both of them, hilariously, wound up choosing incredibly typical gender-aligned stuff. The "amab" NB kid loves machines, Lego, spaceships, engineering, explosions, and anything STEM. The "afab" NB kid loves puppies, pink stuff, flowers, dresses, helping with household chores, cooking, and scorpions. Typical girl stuff.

Not ascribing any deeper meanings. I just think it's cute and funny.

Can confirm. Sh.itjust.works has gone to shit and several of the responses I've received - and the areas where they (the admins and moderators that is) have remained conspicuously unresponsive - indicate to me that they are, by and large, quite sympathetic to alt-right views, hence their very slow delay. I get the impression that they come at this from an Enlightened Centrist angle, so I don't think they consider themselves sympathetic. it's that kind of sympathy where they think it's fair to equally tolerate group A that just wants to exist and group B that openly calls for violence against group A. Both sides amirite?

I don't really want to get down to it too much more than that.

The outer wilds is mostly pretty chill and relaxing and one of the best games I've ever played. Don't look up spoilers if you pick it. It's a game about exploring and curiosity

It isn't at all a no true Scotsman argument, what are you talking about?

You can be a leftist and not be bigoted. Bigots also join the left, we can't help that, but that's because they personally are bigoted, not because the ideology is. In fact, most modern leftism argues that bigotry is fundamentally at odds with the core ideals, and in my experience a majority of the left, at least in English speaking countries, wants to distance these people.

You cannot be a fascist without being bigoted. Being bigoted is part of the ideology. It aims to spread and teach bigotry, that's the purpose of it.

No true Scotsman would be "yeah but the anti Semitic leftists aren't real leftists", which isn't what anyone said.

They're up to two weeks now. I mean it's taking three or more days just to debate removing it and hold an - almost unanimous - vote. They're sending a very clear message that they're much more worried about showing due process towards violent fascists than looking out for the people those violent fascists would target. This whole delay after delay appears to be for the benefit of about twelve if their users, so it must mainly be for the admins themselves

I also have pretty much abandoned my account there

A 3d srardew valley style game where you play as a Hobbit would be just... Sooooo good. Nice
