and how do you know that?

you feel like a victim because society is indeed oppressive towards LGBTQ minorities, but if you see yourself as a victim all the time you'll just end up depressed and miserable.

no, Steam is not being biased against minorities, intentionally or otherwise, they're just not. This feature was in beta for a long time and for most of the beta anybody could join any family from any country. The choice to make it more restricted wasn't to fuck up people who don't live with their families - it was to prevent the abuse of the feature that must've come to light during the beta.

Steam wanted to improve their family share, and the did, greatly in fact. But they had to include limitations to prevent cases where someone gets financially abused online, or someone joins a stranger's family and then gets kicked out immediately and needs to wait 6 months join any other family, or someone joins a game hoarder's family and then never buys a game again.

That limitation can still be worked around the good old way - by logging into another person's machine and joining their family that way, but for that you need to trust the other person to not fuck up your account - and that's enough to discourage most of the extreme cases. They're just not going to beam that information to the public as that'd defeat the point of establishing that limitation in the first place, and even encourage people to trust random strangers that could have malicious intent.

drag, go touch grass. Seeing every minor inconvenience as a personal attack of the heteronormative patriarchy can't be good for you

and again - I'm telling you this for the third time, you can go around the region lock.

as a trans person, can you not call everything that inconveniences you as a trans person transphobic? You're devaluing the actual struggles we have to face with "i can't play video game because of transphobia :(". Besides, there are ways to go around the region lock, just Google the "transphobia" away

you can still try to go around it by doing the same as before, log into the other person's machine

was that expedition inspired by lovecraft or was lovecraft inspired by that expedition?

after the goose comes a swan, which though bigger, tougher, and stronger, has chilled the hell out a bit

after a swan then comes the Canadian goose, which even though it appears to be a return to goose, it's actually the might of a swan, and the rage of a 100 regular geese

it might be the pessimist in me, or it might be the reality we're living in

but if sheer access to Wikipedia cured you out of being a cultist- i don't think there'd be that many trump supporters

honestly, this is not a terrible idea

if you see someone at the verge of a panic attack that means they're fully in their head spiraling - you can try to calm them down the normal way, but you can also try to force them out of their own head and ground them by saying something weird, ideally a question so their mind can latch onto it. It won't always work, but it might shock them just the right amount to ground them!
