[wordfather]

Listen that doesn’t even account for all the weird shit local farmers are getting up to.

May I present the best apple:

the world is so big and beautiful

[darknightingale1]

I have terrible news. There are about 7500 cultivars of apples. Apples are wild. If you plant the seed of a granny Smith, you're not likely to get a granny Smith tree.

I legitimately think the first video game to ever say the word "bisexual" out loud was Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. There is a nonzero chance it was actually the first video game to print "bisexual" in a text format.

[normal-horoscopes]

It is very possible that the first video game character to ever say the word "Bisexual" out loud was Solid Snake.

[lakemojave]

Based on what I found, the first ever bisexual character in a video game was Curtis Craig from Phantasmagoria 2 (1996) but I have yet to find out if he says the word "bisexual" in the scene where this is revealed

[lakemojave]

He does not. He says he's attracted to his male best friend but he never says the word "bisexual."

The first ever character to ever correctly and overtly identify a person as bisexual was Solid Snake in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (2001)

[nyanbinyuri]

I once again have to point out for those who've never played mgs2 he says this when asked if another character that goes by the name of vamp is a vampire

[laliluleho]

Everyone here who hasn’t yet needs to see how fucking incredible this whole conversation is.

Snake: “He was at church when a bomb went off, got pierced by a crucifix, survived by drinking his family’s blood.”

Raiden: “So that’s why he’s called Vamp?”

Snake: “No it’s because he’s bisexual.”

GLaDOS voice: "Would you like to see some artwork I generated? I've heard from other test subjects that AI-generated artwork produces an uncanny valley response in human viewers because they can't perceive it as fully real. They've told me that it looks absolutely hideous to them, that they can't imagine anything more disgusting than AI art. But, well I've been practicing and wanted your honest opinion. Feel free to let me know how ugly you find this by ranking it on a scale from 'vomit-inducing' to 'eye-bleeding'." A robotic arm lowers from the ceiling holding a hand mirror up to Chell's face

I want to live in this fantasy world where systemic spousal & financial & parental abuse magically don’t exist, or that married people are incapable of neglect because the law says you can’t. no fault divorce is extremely new and not universal, and marriage has been, for centuries and still today, a tool used overwhelmingly to oppress and abuse women. unless you’re trying to save someone from being deported or need their health benefits to survive I think this is recklessly bad advice, particularly when you’re directing it at young people who are unlikely to have independent financial security. this is like telling people to buy a house because it’ll improve their credit and give them the ability to pass property off to “their heir” without ever mentioning the 2008 financial crash or predatory loans or property repossession or the fact that many homeowners are drowning in debt

I profoundly dislike this woman, but I think it is disingenuous to present a paraphrase as a quote.

The closest I found to her actually saying that is:

"When peace comes we will perhaps in time be able to forgive the Arabs for killing our sons, but it will be harder for us to forgive them for having forced us to kill their sons. Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us."

Golda Meir - A land of Our Own, an oral autobiography (1973)

Thanks for the full quote, it actually makes her far worse.

Scientists shocked to find lab gloves may be skewing microplastics data

Scientists may have been unknowingly inflating microplastics pollution estimates, and the surprising source could be their own lab gloves. A

A University of Michigan study suggests that the nitrile and latex gloves scientists commonly use could be causing microplastics levels to appear higher than they actually are. Researchers found that these gloves can unintentionally transfer particles onto lab tools used to analyze air, water, and other environmental samples. The contamination comes from stearates, which are not plastics but can closely resemble them during testing. Because of this, scientists may be detecting particles that are not true microplastics. To reduce this issue, U-M researchers Madeline Clough and Anne McNeil recommend using cleanroom gloves, which release far fewer particles.

honestly one of the top 3 best outcomes of my transition is that no one gives a shit about me anymore. I don’t get leered at in public (outside of clocking obviously), I don’t get sexually harassed by random men, I don’t get followed on the street or through malls by men, I don’t get called an ungrateful bitch for turning down a date, I don’t get sexually harassed at work or school, I don’t get random unsolicited nudes sent to me, I don’t get men being crybabies about me having a higher GPA than they do or making more money than they do, I don’t get disgusting comments about my body, I don’t get called a bitch or cunt or dyke. All the harassment and violence I have faced post-transition has always been because I’m transgender, not because I’m a man. Being invisible in public (RELATIVE TO THE WOMEN IN YOUR OWN DEMOGRAPHIC COHORTS) is an incredible privilege and I didn’t understand the sheer extent of that privilege until I transitioned. Men talk to me like a human being now! They ask for my opinion, they chat with me, they interact with me like a “normal person.” I became invisible in those interactions because I’m just treated like a person and not like a woman. If anything, transitioning made me hate men more, because it revealed to me how capable they are of talking to other people like human beings and not housemaids they can fuck and abuse.

So like the gall to complain about this is insane. Don’t you guys fucking remember what interacting with the world pre-transition was like? How dehumanised and violated and surveilled you felt? Ok so now imagine that there are still women in the world who experience that all the time. Now imagine there is a group of women who have to deal with all of that on top of also being the focus of a global extermination campaign, who have to deal with all of that sexual harassment AND transphobia AND violence at the same time. You want the privilege of being invisible while ALSO still being the centre of attention? What the fuck is wrong with you?
