Made it through one round! Crashed in the second round tho.

We were winning and I got a quad kill lol RIP

YUP

Same!

Like it's a lot of little tiny things that chip away at my comfort until I don't want to even do it on the Switch lol

I don't have a spare for either, so I wouldn't able to use my PC while playing, which made me realize listening to music would be harder, which THEN made me realize I don't have a good pair of earphones/buds for my Switch, and like yeah I can bluetooth my earbuds but the Switch can't also play music

(*sending computer parts without a specific timeline of when because they're doing me a massive favor and this beggar isn't gonna be choosy)

Okay, survived a game update! Now to check if Teletraan-II can live through an entire match...

I think there's merit to that idea, but I don't want to declare a place in a community on the chance it's not something I have a right to do.

TWO badges? Sounds like you found wheat far earlier than I did :P

The whole point of defending the right for uncomfortable, or even reprehensible fiction to have the right to exist isnt that its all cool and nothing is ever wrong with it

Its that government/corpo organizations will NEVER look at things with the """nuance""" you think is so self evident

I love their sound so much, and yeah that album is one of their best.

(I do have a friend sending me new computer parts and they're a goddamn lifesaver but I want the NieR goodies and they're only around for two weeks, plus there's a cool Echo skin I can get but that event is only around for one more week... >.>)

Last time I merely tried to update Overwatch on my PC my computer shut down, seemingly as if it had overheated (still unsure if that's the issue, but I dusted again just in case)

I hate playing with a controller so much I'm tempting fate again. Wish me luck x.x

Good girls don't die
And good girls stay alive
And good girls satisfy, but I won't

Is it good that the state can kill you if you fail to appreciate your genitally predetermined destiny? Centrists are saying both sides have a point...

I'm not convinced the average ally understands how this works either, and that terrifies me. I worry too many cis people are like "Well yes, a penis means binary immutable male sex. I'm fine with trans people, but if the law is appealing to Science, there's nothing we can do."

FALSE. WRONG. F - -.

WE STAN A QUEEN

There's a reason they initially stopped chromosome testing in elite athletics: they were finding a lot of athletes with intersex conditions* who otherwise, to the best of their knowledge, were cisgender. It was untenable.

Turns out biology's complicated! There's so goddamned many edge cases!

Because if you truly think that, I got a bridge to sell you.

This is not about science for the transphobes. Even if you don't care about the gender dysphoria of trans people and think we'll just get over it, please see this encroachment on EVERYONE'S rights for what it is.

Sorry to keep ranting about this, but if I can reach even a single cis person who's never thought about this, it's worth it.

Let's say I got it tested and it turns out I have XX chromosomes. Do you think a rightwinger will then go "Oh okay, you get to live as a woman and continue taking estrogen"?

There is nothing so special about sex that they can’t come for you too. They can build a movement of disgust and rage about any part of your past, and they will blame it on whatever they think solid enough to support their hatred.

Exactly! There's no end to the fantastical answers to how this premise happened! Anyone going "Uhhhh OBVIOUSLY this is a WALL-E situation" is not being serious.

It's by no means a small or harmless thing, what the fascists are doing, but it also won't work in the end.

I do strongly believe most people are done with the various forms of homophobia/transphobia of centuries past, but because a bunch of butthurt grandpas wanted to throw a temper tantrum to set us back a couple decades, we need to wait until they die before we can move on.

Cardboard sign on a wooden pole: There is no way to police trans people out of public life without simultaneously creating an apparatus of violence- (the sign is ripped, cutting off the rest of the text)

They will come for you after they're finished with us.

As for intersex people born with genitals that don't fit into either box, what then? Do THEY get to decide what sex characteristics they have?

My guess would be no. Because this isn't about appealing to nature, it's about controlling the bodies of undesirables.

Having been born with a penis doesn't prove I have XY chromosomes.

I PROBABLY do, but getting that tested is something few people have a reason to do, and we KNOW one doesn't always correlate with the other.

They're using transparently stupid sleight of hand to say it's all binary and immutable.

Yeah like I actually think it's an interesting twist, going that hard on real life issues, but it's still a *twist* lol

What transphobes call "sex" is entirely based on the genitals observed at birth while they stick their fingers in their ears and go "LA LA LA NOT LISTENING SHUT UP I'M IN CHARGE" when it's explained to them that's not how sex works.

It shouldn't fall to trans people to explain to cis people why creating laws that effectively amount to "If you have or ever had a penis, you must behave this way; If you have, or ever had a vagina, you must behave this other way" is horrifically dangerous for everyone's rights.
