Joining Haidra, instance democracy and the tantalizing potential for user flairs
  • This is an ingenious way to do it, and also, the common user lovers flairs. This might be a genius way to get users to want to join this instance, and hopefully, be more influenced by what we tend to stand for!

    10/10 Well done.

  • Shaking my smh at all the fakecels in here tbh
  • As a survivor who has spent time in multiple institutions, "you need to have successfully attempted" doesn't really bother me. This is the kind of joke that I like.

    If I see a cw, I assume it's for something taken seriously and that I would have skipped reading.

  • Broke: Space Marines can't be feeeeeemale because the geneseed chemicals only work on men
  • So a couple years ago my ex asks me for my opinion. I didn't know anything about Warhammer at the time but he was all pissy and wanted to know if I thought his game was anti-feminist. "Some woman on the internet says they should be allowed to play women Astartes!"

    ...I didn't know what that meant. So, I asked some questions, followed up on them, and I'll tell you what I boiled it down to;

    "In this super future game where science can grow people from cells, it can only grow men, and that's because they're clones of some guy?"

    "Okay... but they're not actually clones of that guy. Or the guys they're patterned off. So why is it that whatever magic super future science stuff you're suspending your disbelief for, you can't suspend it long enough to make women?"

    Never have gotten an answer to that one.

  • A LOT of divorces happen because women don't actually want to BE married, they just want to GET married.
  • If it helps, there's also documentation saying that people who are neurodivergent can take an additional 10 years to finish developing. I don't know how true that is, and it needs further research, but I definitely wasn't fully developed when I should've been.

  • A LOT of divorces happen because women don't actually want to BE married, they just want to GET married.
  • Yes. I did. I'm the first person who said, "this wiki link doesn't support that."

    And another non-US source says that it isn't. All from the same link. The argument that the top drop down is somehow valid enough to make a blanket statement when there are equal sources saying it's false among their demographics is disingenuous at best.

    ETA: you might not remember but you directly replied to my comment where I pointed out that the wiki article doesn't support what he's saying in his post.

  • What item you use frequently would you be least surprised to learn is secretly bad for you?

    This is sort of a shower thought because this morning I was using some shaving cream and I thought, if it turns out in 5 years this was giving me cancer, I wouldn't be surprised.

    Comes out a goo, ejected from a can with force, immediately becomes a foam?

    Do you have anything you use that you think might be too good to be true?

    I'm here to help!

    Temporary status update; I finally had my wisdom teeth out so I'm very likely on prescription medication while you're reading this. There may be... out-of-character commenting.
