fuck it, i never ever do those “reblog for X, this one really works!” posts, but this one doesn’t have any of that BS, this is just straight up wishing us good things; and then the comment doesn’t even say any of that either. Zero claims on this post, all positive vibes
May you end this week feeling ever more certain of a future you’ll love
look i know i am preaching to the choir as the saying goes but these 'water is wet' studies as i have seen them called is to prove a point not everyone believes.
like i have met people who think being suicidal is an inherent part of being trans and don't know how the numbers decrease from gender-affirming care HELL even didn't know the numbers dropped so much just from getting basic affirming care.
rarely is research done for a pointless reason, not everyone is gonna know this stuff even those who are involved in the LGBTQ+ community and spend time working with LGBTQ+ youth ( i don't work with youth per se but the volunteer work i do with pride has me in spaces with them).
like yes i know the joke here but i think this type of response isn't the best to research being done on our side.
Studies like this are being cited in court cases against gender-affirming care bans as we speak. Remember, the argument behind those laws is that gender-affirming care is harmful to children in the long term, both physically and psychologically, and that this justifies interfering in private citizens' healthcare decisions. We need as many studies as we can get showing the opposite if we want those laws to be struck down permanently.
Unity thinks it can "appease enough to make it work"
Pressure is mounting on Unity to scrap its new Runtime Fee policy, and there are even reports that a lawsuit could be in the offing.
TL!DR:
Among Us Dev got a phone call with Unity execs. They said they would do deals with specific devs, to mitigate the fee and the backlash but they would not cancel their decision.
He added that the execs seems to think if they can wait long enough, and if few enough have to pay, all devs will drop the matter and not care about those that are still affected. (because solidarity is not a concept that those money-hungry fucks understand)
Among Us Dev then said he was going to start looking into other engine options.
You are a long forgotten god. A small girl leaves a piece of candy at your shrine, and you awaken. Now, you must do everything to protect your High Priestess, the girl, and her entire kindergarten class, your worshipers.
The stone was immovable, in the past. Indestructible. A spire of granite no mortal hand could even alter.
But mortal hands build clever tools, and these last few hundred years I have lived in dread that they will break this, my sacred stone, the last link that preserves me, a faint shadow of a forgotten god. While my sacred stone stands, I do not, quite, fade away.
I am in a park, now, clipped and tamed, my forests long gone. But they landscape around me and my stone, admiring its beauty, so I do not complain. While they take pleasure in the stone, I am safe.
There is a playground a few lengths away, and the laughter and happy shrieking rouse me a little from my sleep. I watched over children, once. It’s nice to hear them again.
But I don’t truly awaken until the Offering is made.
Little hands touch my stone, with curiosity and a sort of reverence that only the very young feel now. For a child young enough the world is still a mystery, and even an ancient granite stone provokes wonder. So I stir, when she touches the stone, becoming hazily aware.
And then, solemnly, the child places a tiny colourful object in the roughly shaped alcove in the stone’s side, the place where offerings were laid two thousand years ago and more, and I awaken. Many people have put things in that alcove, of course… to take pictures, usually, these days, or putting a lost object where it will be seen. Merely to place an object in the alcove isn’t enough. A true offering is given as a gift, with intent.
