You would think trans people are like 30% of the population with how many there are on resetera and how much these people talk about this shit.  Celiac disease has a higher incidence than trans people.  I read about Celiac disease maybe twice a year.

I've actually worked with people who have coeliac disease. I've never worked with a trans person.

you should be aware that this person was only identifying as having celiac disease, they were trans celiac and very grateful that you humored them and treated them exactly if they actually had celiac

It's like we're doing the Aloy thing all over again. "Her face is too fat" and all of their sources are the V-Shaped anime girls.

What? The source is the original game. Why are they so dumb?

I know you're joking, but the coeliacs I've worked with, who have an awful condition requiring significant effort and vigilance to maintain their health, were less demanding and complained far less about the world than these transbians do.

I've been in a real bad mood the past week, online discussion around the UK elections (especially about Trans people) have been really putting my on edge and making me just constantly frustrated and I've ended up having to block myself from reading about it for own sake, both here on the rest of the web.

Fortunately, I just finished University and have a lot more free time now which includes getting back into Warhammer 40k, watch Columbo (which yes, putting those back to back does give me the image of Columbo as an Inquisitor in the 40k universe), finally get into PreCure and figure out what that Pink Koala seal I saw for ages was and playing video games again because besides occasional SF6 and playing the Peach game in the spring, I haven't played many games the since early Feb.

As such and actual point of the thread, what are good, positive/optimistic/not-grim indie games that are trans, bi and wlw friendly, especially from a woman perspective. .

To be clear though, when I say bi friendly, I am not talking about games where the "bi representation" is where all the romance options are playersexual because it's mechanically convenient, don't have any preferences of their own and the word bisexual isn't mentioned once. I'm talking about games that actually properly acknowledge bisexuality (which includes actually saying the damn word for once) be very varied, that bisexual people who preferences like some bi women who don't find men attractive but do find NB people attractive or romantical interest differ from their sexual interests etc. That actually discuss bi erasure and the struggles bi people can feel like the struggle to feel to be include etc.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/destiny-loremaster-mynameisbyf-releases-10-hour-video-covering-the-series-entire-story-before-the-final-shape.886707/

With The Final Shape releasing this coming Tuesday, I thought this video may be of interest to anyone planning to play it. MyNameIsByf, the Destiny community's "lore guy," just released his ten-hour-long video covering the entire story of the series. This starts with all of the relevant backstory, and then goes through all of the campaigns / expansions / seasonal storylines, leading right up to the most recent content going into The Final Shape.

It's a YouTube Premiere, so it's still live right now, but you can rewind to the beginning if you want to watch the whole thing. I believe he said that this has timestamps for anyone wanting to watch it a piece at a time, so once it finishes premiering, those should be available.

They did for awhile. But since it's Marvel they can turn a blind eye. Selective horse blinders would be an appropriate term.

I generally don't get watching something if you dislike an actor so much. There are some I can't stand and I don't watch their movies.

Like Morbius, can't fucking stand Jared Leto (I can tolerate his early 30 Seconds to Mars work for the first 2 albums, the rest not so much) so I have no idea what happened in the movie. The memes were hilarious though.

Also a 10 hour video is insane unless it's like some long as extended version of a song and the only video available. With 10 hours you could probably finish the first Destiny game, it's expansions and start the second game.

Right? I would've thought stuff like would be like a cool bonus or a: "Huh that's neat!" on top of a fun game. But it isn't the difference maker exactly.

Why are we giving any credit to dislike counters when we know the chuds online hate this, and it's very easy to make alt accounts to farm dislikes.

So why do you care about like counters then? An assumption that your side is above that, right?

I don't really want to psycho-analyze incels, but every once in a while I wonder how many of them are repressed or closeted trans people who are directing their own self-loathing and feelings of shame and guilt on to others.

Then again, maybe that's giving terrible people too much credit. They can just be that awful, as hard as it is to believe.

That's what out trans people do.

Reverse the races in this statement.

I've actually worked with people who have coeliac disease. I've never worked with a trans person.

That you know of.  

Why every game gotta to affirm their weird asses? Shit don't make no damn sense. I don't need a game with black people to make me feel good about being black I just want to play a game thats fun what happened to that shit?

Sorry, chud, the purpose of everything should be to affirm all (good) people at all times. Stop caping for capitalism, colonialism and white supremacy instead of basic human decency.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Sinophobic Generalization

Right, it has nothing to do with the US' continuous anti-China rhetoric since god knows how long, I guess maybe since the US tried to destroy Huawei without a shred of evidence? Barred any Western company to work with Huawei? Barred ASML to sell EUV lithography machines to China? 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs? Banning Tik Tok and forcing them to sell it. And the list goes on and on. The US (and lil bro EU) is actively pushing China away from the West. They keep saying they don't want to decouple from China, but that's exactly what's happening. All these BS makes China get closer and closer to Russia. Not sure what China has to gain when Russia is going to war with Europe. But I guess it's not the United States fault.

lol, this is a timely post. Huawei is actively involved in industrial espionage. Recently Korea arrested a Chinese national who used to work for SK Hynix and was passing info regarding semi manufacturing. Now Huawei is probably not going to be making memory chips but the process know how to reduce defects could be applied to whatever process Huawei is developing with SMIC.

As someone who works in the semi industry in the west, I have no issue with us kneecapping the Chinese. Both for preventing industrial espionage and for halting the deployment of these technologies into defense projects.

ETA: I don't agree with targeting international students like in the OP without strong evidence though.

[AnnoyedCanadian]

I still love how you only get 2 weeks for violent threats, antisemitism, the times when people are actually racist towards anyone of Asian ethnicity, sexist against real women and not appeasing the admins if they don't permaban you. The second you have any opinion that strays from the path on communism, trans issues, Islam and stuff like that, boom, permaban. B-Dumbs and Nepenthe are 2 miserable fucking cunts. I wonder how many people have been banned on the site, probably like half at least.

I don't know what to search for to see if it's online but in some magazine my mom had there was a picture from a farm or something and after a big snowfall coming out of the barn the farmer or whoever had walked through the snow and the picture is of like seven barn cats in the footprints. I cut it out and framed it.
