Do you like women, do those women like women, do you like women liking women, well now theres the Yuri Tournament!

SuleMio vs Celerra

SuleMio

Celerra

Remaining time: 6 days 8 hours

[paxesoterica]

As a Final Fantasy and Gundam fan this feels personally targeted at me, and I don't like it : /

I'm voting Sulemio (of course), but I want it on record that Terra is an infinitely better love interest for Celes than her canon one.

one of the quirks of the DLC is that there are 2 different Black Shin Getters flying around and no one acknowledges it

[paxesoterica]

Tbf, if I was in Yz-Next, and I was told "Getter Rays, they just do things." whenever I asked the Getter scientists about why something just happened, I'd probably quickly learn to shrug off weird Getter stuff.

Dinosaur people get hurt by Getter rays, except for their prince who is one of our teammates? Sure.

One of the Getter pilots is a clone of the famously dead father of another pilot? Okay.

There's two black Getters helping us, but they're not connected outside of being Getter robots? Sounds positively reasonable.

We've time traveled well beyond multiple human lifespans? I guess that's just life now.

...I might have some questions though when I learn the Getter could potentially eat its pilots...

Every time I see scenes like these, I keep half-expecting a Bandai representative to corporealize out of thin air just to remind me: "Just so you know, these two already canonically have boyfriends, *and* they're not even *slightly* bi, so don't even think about shipping them!"

And like, listen, I respect that Relena and Heero have something strange and unhinged going on between them, but, do you *really* expect me to believe that Space Idol!Utena *doesn't* have at least a little unrequited yearning for a princess, especially one with impeccable fashion taste? Hasn't even wistfully considered piloting a robot to fight in a duel on her behalf? Not even a little bit? Pfft.

the place I work at remodeled these split gendered restrooms into “inclusive restrooms” and never told us what they meant while construction was ongoing. I need you to know every atom of potential criticism or whining that could’ve happened disappeared when people found out this meant we got 10 fully separate private bathrooms with sinks inside. I’ve not heard a single person crack a joke about the inclusive signage. this is the world TERFs are trying to steal from you

[revcleo]

This is called a "superloo" and terfs are actively trying to steal this from you, in the UK they changed bathroom regulations to mean new buildings have to prioritise gendered toilets rather than build superloos.

This also upset a lot of architects and designers who like the superloos. They're also typically more like small rooms rather than having doors you can look under.

[penrosesun]

I have a friend who was strongly against inclusive bathrooms because he felt that “bathroom stalls are already really exposed due to how they’re constructed, so no wonder women don’t want men in the same bathrooms as them” and when I pointed out that we could just… build better bathrooms… with less exposed stalls, he got really quiet and then said “honestly that sounds so much better, but there must be some problem with building them like that, because otherwise wouldn’t we already be doing it?” BESTIE we are. WE ARE. Old-style bathrooms are cheaply made, poorly designed, and all around bad. Haven’t you noticed that men’s restrooms rooms get weirdly sticky? Haven’t you noticed that women’s restrooms end up with giant lines? This is because these rooms are architecturally awful. And we can do better now, because we know more! And we are!!! People are actively designing better bathrooms that address known problems, and guess what: those bathrooms are “inclusive” in the same way that curb-cuts are inclusive. It doesn’t matter if the ramp was built for a wheelchair or a stroller; it doesn’t matter if the bathrooms were designed specifically for gender inclusivity or just because fall-apart-if-you-sneeze-on-them metal stall dividers with giant ass peek gaps suck. We can in fact improve our built environment to better meet our needs. Stop cutting off your nose to spite your face; stop settling for less just because someone else might also enjoy it.

Seattle's SEA-TAC airport has an all gender restroom that's a row of about a dozen fully enclosed separated little rooms that lock, with a shared bank of sinks and it's great. Love it. Lot of very strange encounters at the sinks, feels odd the first few times! But people laugh it off almost instantly. Because it's not actually a big deal to share a sink.

Reblog if you're kinda irrelevant and don't know a single person who actively uses tumblr

As a European, I knew Americans have been asking for walkable cities but i had no idea it was literally this hostile

WHERE DO YOU WALK YOUR DOGS!?!

[dkpsyhog]

[brehaaorgana]

lol yeah

[what-even-is-thiss]

Its to the point where most Americans can’t conceive of a walkable community because everywhere is like this and several generations have now grown up in a world like this. There’s hardly anyone that can conceive of a world that isn’t like this. Most people either cave in and get a car or end up isolated. I live in a city that’s mostly walkable by North American standards and I still end up walking in the dirt on the edge of a stroad a lot of the time.

And don't forget, we can't get decent public transportation either.

I just came up with a really inconvenient, possibly unplayable four-player game: The Evil Advisor

All you need is a completely normal chess board and a deck of cards that you can somehow divide into an even amount of cards that mean "yes" or "no". Out of the four players, only two need to know how to play chess - those play the role of advisor. The other two play as rulers. At the start of the game, both advisors pull a random card from the deck, which dictates whether their goal is to win the game, or lose it. They keep their respective card, showing it to nobody else.

The rulers, who ultimately choose where to move the pieces, always aim to win the chess game, and also know that the advisor may or may not be on their side, and don't know whether to trust the advisor or not.

If the ruler wins the chess game, they win the whole game. An advisor only wins if they reach their own goal - if an advisor's goal was to lose, but the ruler wins, the advisor loses, and vice versa.

[rathayibacter]

you should add a set of randomized bonus rules on top of chess that only the advisors know about, so even if everyone knows how to play chess the rulers still feel beholden to their advisors, and the advisors want to say only enough that the rulers can play without knowing so much that the advisors become redundant
