Grabbing people by the scruff of their necks and shaking them. You know Jax being a terrible person was the point right. That she pushed everyone away despite having all the opportunity to be better.
It's meant to be tragic. That even after all that she realized she wanted to change as her last words and thoughts. She didn't want to go.
It's okay I understand this is baby's first nuance.

Hey gang, what opinion should I have about [rolls random color] indigo [rolls random race] Orcs living in [rolls random country] Belgium?
Hello, Tumbler.
We all want to read more F/F and Lebanese literature so we can fulfill our reading list diversity quotas for Instagram, but wait! Our highly scientific forensic focus groups keep reporting a massive issue: where are the men? There is no yaio in this book. How can I keep reading if I don't know who's the bottom and which Kpop idol he was based on?
Fear not! We have the solution for you. Our product, developed in labs, written at least partly by someone who can check off 20 DEI lists for you, solves the problem of lesbian stories with no men! In fact, it is a lesbian story with all men!
Definitely all man. For sure. 100%. Don't---don't read the blurb. Just pre-order Estro Junkies. Juicy, juicy lesbian yaio between men awaits. So many men who will stay men and date men and definitely, regularly talk about men, just as Bechdel intended.
Preorder now on Amazon, Itch, or other storefronts!
Nasty and sophisticated scam: BEWARE of this!

Don’t get caught off guard by this. It’s quite a slick one.
The gender crank hangup on gender identity is so fascinating like "ohh it was invented by John Money" no it wasn't, the term was coined by Robert J. Stoller. Both of these guys were researching it to try to "fix" trans and intersex people by changing their gender identities. They were your guys.
"But what's the evidence that people have a gender identity? You haven't proven that it exists." Well you see, you could ask the same thing about the notion of having any personality trait at all.
The term was coined to label something that was already being observed, which was that people will have rather strong opinions on what gender they're supposed to be, and sometimes you'll encounter a trans person, whose strong opinion on their own gender is at odds with their birth gender assignment.
In general, the idea that you have to Prove™️ the existence of whatever you're measuring before you can say anything about the measurements is completely backwards. The measurements come first, and then afterward you build the framework to interpret them.
Early sexological studies of gender identity and its development were motivated by trying to ensure it did so "correctly" according to birth gender assignment, by guys like Stoller and Money. As it turns out, you can't do that. Reports of successful methods to change someone's gender identity were backed by a great deal of scientific misconduct, dishonesty, and outright human rights violations.
The complete failure to actually change anyone's gender identity in real life is the basis for the observation that gender identity can't be changed, that "gender identity disorder" as it has been called at times can't be "cured."
The people who first arrived at this conclusion absolutely fucking hated it, because their careers were dependent on finding the "cure," but everything they could think of turned out to do significantly more harm than simply letting people live according to their gender identity.
Over time, these guys have died of old age and slowly started to be replaced by people with enough self-awareness to ask "are we the baddies?" and push for a depathologized framework for the treatment of trans people. This has gone over pretty poorly with self-styled skeptics who were asleep until the scientifically backed conclusion started backing a minority group they don't like.
The thing these pseudo-skepctics slept through in science class, though, is that psychology isn't the only place where you need to tolerate the idea that you'll make observations first, construct a framework, and then look for evidence that contradicts it rather than Proving™️ that the framework is "true".
This approach is also how we discovered every single fundamental particle, is the thing.
Electrons are indisputably a Real Thing That Exists, seeing as we have a bunch of technologies that depend on electron detectors now. The idea of "an electron" was first introduced in the 1880s as a name for the minimum amount of electric charge observed in ions. They didn't "Prove" that they exist, they just named an observation that was already being made.
The proper discovery of the electron is credited to experiments with cathode rays, based on the deflection of those rays by electric fields, and the heating produced by those rays. From that, they calculated the electrons' mass.
There are, to this day, guys who will insist these experiments didn't Prove™️ that electrons are particles. In a very naive and pedantic sense, this is true: The goal was not to Prove™️the particle nature of electrons. Particles were the best-fit model for what was going on with cathode rays. With no better alternative available, particles were ASSUMED, and experiments focused on measuring the properties those particles would have, supposing they were real.
"Measure the properties supposing that it's real" is how research on gender identity has to work, because there isn't going to be a Gender Identity Detector to Prove™️that it exists. The crank objection is that this is some kind of exceptional reach, some highly dubious construction that undermines the whole field of research into trans issues.
That betrays one of two things: Complete ignorance of how basic research works in practice, or a deliberate effort to lie about it. In either case, the objections don't constitute legitimate criticism. They're politically motivated pseudo-skepticism coming from people who refuse to engage with the existing work on the subject, using the playbook of the kind of person who insists that the theory of relativity and the theory of quantum mechanics are "Jewish science" and need to be debunked.
Not surprising, given that the first sexologist to propose that trans people are simply a value-neutral, natural variation in humans was Magnus Hirschfield, a Jewish scientist whose institute was burned down by the Nazis in the 1930s.
.......What is this supposed to appeal to????

Fascin8ing and very normal things happening on terf tum8lr
A long rant about strive
Alright, don't get me wrong, I love Strive, but there are some things that just bug me about it that make me gravitate towards the older GG games.
The complete removal of Johnny's coins has always annoyed me, like those things were one of the main reasons I played the character because of how fun they were to use.
The story mode being a bunch of cutscenes tied together without any battles seems weird tbh, like this is a fighting game and the story mode contains no fighting.
And idk how to really explain it but Robo Ky just seems like, more annoying in Strive compared to his previous versions, still like him in strive (he's one of the reasons I main Venom) but not nearly as much as +r or Xrd Robo Ky

I... don't think you understand what "erased" means. As you tried to say: community member Erebus A.K.A. Leon is in dire need of funds to save his mother's vision. Please spread the word and give whatever support you can to support him and his mother.

I decided to post this on the Robo RP since that does seem to be my most popular blog, but please don't get the impression that the post isn't serious. I added some humor in an attempt to get the blog's audience something familiar to read (Robo being adumbable) to reduce the chance of them scrolling past without looking.
...thoughts on the firered + leafgreen shadowdrop, trainers!??
seeing people in the comments saying this price is way too steep and i'd just like to ask, what the hell are you talking about.
when fire red and leaf green were released in 2004 they cost around $34.99 according to people who bought the games. today, with inflation, that's like $60 ???? this is perfectly reasonable, and it encourages nintendo to re-release old content that would otherwise be inaccessible to the general public except through overpriced or illegal means, which not everyone is able to use.
yes there are downsides to any big company making moves like this and releasing digital content that will one day become defunct when they move onto another console as a cash grab, but if this encourages them to rerelease more old games and give more people the opportunity to play them through more accessible means, then i think that's great
It's literally just an emulated GBA game (which isn't an impressive feat of programming). The amount of money this port cost to make is negligible for TPC. There are no special features beyond the POSSIBILITY of Home integration (not even so little as online play, or fucking switching languages). This is an absolutely absurd price for a ROM dump.
For reference, this is the same price as Silksong, an actually new game, that cost actual money to make, by a studio that actually needs money, by devs that actually gave care to the product.
a member of the fgc has been detained by ice, and it would be rude of me an a member of the community to not at least bring it up. this is the gofundme for his defense in court, from what i know (a kotaku article) the first goal of 50,000 has been crushed, but the more the better. donate if you can even if a small amount.

I got a lot of stamp requests since the other time so here they are. Also made a few with my own designs.
Once more credit appreciated but not necessary, if I show up on your artfight page and you have my stamps and I go "nice stamps!" I'm being cheeky I am NOT picking a fight!!
I prommy I'm working on my website its just that the pc that had visual studio code on it literally cracked in half
