Exactly. I don’t care about tiktok (I’m more concerned with the parts of this legislation) but this’ll be interesting. The bad news is that if tiktok wins this, other corporations will definitely start up with some new shenanigans

There is a pretty obvious difference between accidentally misgendering and maliciously misgendering.

To be fair, why do you think they’re antisemitic? Could it be the years and years of oppression under Israel, who have conflated themselves with Judaism the entire time?

This isn’t me saying that antisemitism is good, but the same reason you were confused about the ties between Judaism and Israel (and lack thereof) is probably the same thing going through their heads.

I really enjoy cooking and enjoy reading about the science behind it. So chemistry/biochem, I guess? For any interested J. Kenji Lopez-At is a good and approachable source.

Also for those that like astronomy and also beer, look for an Astronomy on Tap chapter near you! They are an org that puts on presentations about astronomy in bars. Dunno about other chapters, but my city’s chapter is free to attend.

Not here to fight you, but this line of thinking might be why people downvote you for being a language/grammar nazi.

Consider that gender is a made up concept and one can actually pick and choose any part of any gender norm to apply to themselves.

Also consider that your friend might not be ready for a potential next step in their gender discovery journey and you should respect that. Just be a safe person to come out to when/if they’re ready. Choosing their pronouns for them is both rude as fuck and potentially dangerous for them.

You’re entitled to your opinion! I would have liked them more if they were junkier, but to me they were more of a polished mid-century/greaser asthetic that didn’t fit in on a sand planet. Street gang on Coruscant? That casino planet I forget the name of? Sure, why not! But Tatooine? Nah, too polished. Sand is ruining that paint in one joy ride.

And if you are used to watching chase scenes at the speed of a nursing home relay race. But they’re done by cyberpunk teens that for some reason are on one of the lowest tech planets.

Lol, my father constantly telling me to toughen up is what led to me going to therapy.

Toughening doesn’t permanently do the trick, it leads to repression of emotion and is a very isolating thing. It’s better instead to be vulnerable and expand your support network. One strong tree isn’t as strong as the interlocked roots of a forest.

Hell, I’d be fine for in-game adverts in sensible and relatively unintrusive spots (like a Spiderman 2 ad on a times square billboard in Spiderman 1/Miles Morales). But that won’t happen.
