I'm ND so I hope that gives my words a little more weight when I say doing this can bother anyone, ND and NT, what matters is that you keep your story brief and then throw the ball back to the OP by verbally redirecting back to what the OP said.
@TheFaerth
Viewing communication like a game of catch really helped me learn to navigate conversations as a young ND person. If you tell a story and don't redirect back to the OP, it's like catching the ball and keeping it without throwing it back. It makes the other person feel like they

And even if he wasn't taller than Kratos, shorter men with this build who are incredibly strong exist and deserve to see themselves as cool characters in video games. He's well-designed, relatively period accurate, and I for one am stoked to see him in-game!
@TheFaerth
have to walk over to you, retrieve the ball from you, reposition themselves, and then begin the volley again. And that process makes them feel like we aren't actually interested in playing, only in having the ball. I hope this helps someone like it helped me!

first amendment protects you from potential government censorship, not criticism by other more experienced individuals. if you aren't black, you don't have the necessary experience of racism to have context or understanding enough to speak for black people.
@outmagazine
As a trans guy, I really hope this is a poorly thought out April Fools joke because there's no way any generalization you could make will be uplifting or, you know, good.
@caileytervo
I think about this constantly and imo it def has something to do with the tagging and search features. It's so difficult to search for content you want to see/interact with here on Twitter that creators have to make new or RT old content 24/7 and it's exhausting
@JennyENicholson
Did you get the VIP support message? I called them for support once only to find out I buy more doordash than most people in my state, it was one hell of a wakeup call LMAO
@julie__kwon
You aren't being paid to critique a potential partner's work nor is their skill level going to somehow negatively impact your marketability. This reads like you'd lose interest in someone because you wouldn't buy their art and that's wack. Please never date another artist.
@caileytervo
for both the creator (who can't create or freelance at their own pace) and for viewers (who end up feeling more like Consumers than supporters/a fanbase). Tumblr and DA have better search features that make finding even old art much easier.
@eatonnnnn
Hey, I get where you're coming from. Individual bullying hurts and what people are saying to you is disgusting, but this post is about a tendency for thin (not those who medically struggle with weight gain) people to derail discussion of systemic fatphobia and fatshaming. 1/2
@azulaspice
Because this post is intended to justify blanket "I hate men" statements, it's important to remember these statements often come from white cis women and harm marginalized, poc men the most. Including trans men, whose masculinity is different from cis masculinity.

@AndroidPriest
This absolutely shatters my heart. She's singing a piece called O mio babbino caro by Puccini. Having been a performer myself, it's important to remember that classically trained performers and musicians like her are often very low-income and at greater risk of homelessness.
Seeing the Big Tiddy Horse furry openly and actively reframing "bimbo" into a positive, fun space to play in fixed me. It shifted all the parts of my brain that felt Bad about not being smart back into place in the best way! She's an inspiration to us all. 💖
@TwinkyArts
Here's some free, time-saving advice from someone with a masters degree in business management: you fucked up royally. Your customer base will not care how legal it is for you to do this, they will only remember how unkind you were to a customer during a pandemic.
@KyaraFennec
Nice to see someone being honest about this situation. Seeing so many ass-patting comments on the post they put out made me feel insane. 64k in owed suits

They are frustrated by the overwhelming ways institutionalized fatphobia harms people, especially afab people. I just wanted to reassure you that they aren't targeting those with a medical condition and didn't want someone to yell at you instead of explaining kindly. 1/2

@JUNIUS_64
This post has slotted so many things into place for me. Been on the fence with the assumption that I might be, but this was the exact reason I always let the possibility go. TY for this post!
@Lisamaloneyy
The bar scene has been on the decline/family-oriented spaces have been on the rise for ages, but we still treat them as if they're the only places queer communities interact because this subset of discourse is a thinly veiled push for "respectability".
@julie__kwon
I'm a classically trained vocalist with 8+ years of training and performance experience under my belt. I could feel the same way you do, but I don't because I actively choose not to. You can and should turn that compulsion to critique off for your own mental health.
@azulaspice
With regard to trans men specifically, around 50% of trans men have experienced sexual assault in their lifetime. That's a pretty large percentage for a group that's often lumped into such statements along side cis men considering all sexual assault is vastly underreported.
@nathane95
This dumbass isn't worth your time. He's dead set on ignoring the existence of racism beyond written law, so I doubt anything you say is going to make a difference, unfortunately ):

@lackingsaint
Yes! That's a fantastic way to put it, tbh. The body adapts to the way you use it/what you need it to do. In fact, I'd say even Greek and Roman statuary depicts figures with more fat than what our culture assumes is the Standard™.
@Yirggzmb
@TheFaerth
You're right, communication is really hard. Best thing to do is trust that the people in your life who this aren't doing it intentionally and would genuinely love to find a way to communicate with you that works for both of you, so gently mentioning it would be a good thing!
@YugoroForge
Wearing a marginalized identity as a costume for any reason is a SHITTY thing to do.
If you want to make this situation a little less shitty, donate any money you make as a result of this exposure to a trans charity and kindly don't do this again.

Unfortunately, a lot of young people are also immunocompromised. And many older folks are poor, marginalized people who cannot afford healthcare. Like, if this was only about bigots it'd be a different story, but seeing all this ageism pop out is troubling.

Gonna be real, jokes like this about short men disproportionately harm trans men, who are often very short by American heteronormative beauty standards. Seeing just how many people find any man under 6' hideous makes our height dysphoria worse and makes it harder to transition.
IMPORTANT: please please please don't interact with posts of cats licking, batting at, or otherwise interacting with birds. Cat saliva contains bacteria that can kill birds via a scratch or ingestion if the bird preens after a cat licks/touches its feathers.

This is why I love following you/your insights - you don't belittle anyone's placements. Shows you really know what you're talking about tbh 💕

This is bad and you should feel bad for supporting it. Wearing a marginalized identity as a costume for any reason is a shitty thing to do.
@DoingJobs
I'm so so sorry for being a downer on your post, but cat saliva contains bacteria that can kill birds with just a scratch or the ingestion of the saliva when they preen. The chick in this video isn't safe and, unfortunate, that means the interaction is dangerous, not cute. :(
@fIoralfemme
Not one of those people saying she left someone because they wouldn't shave their vulva hair, but couldn't even say "vulva" or "pussy". She called it a "pocketbook". 😬
@JessGolabek
@NightlingBug
@chaoticgaythey
To do that, it's easiest to use terms like "pregnancy issues" wrt pregnancy or "menstruation issues" wrt menstruation! It's far less wordy than just tacking on a bunch of names so more likely to be picked up by healthcare organizations and it includes everyone!
@fearaidfangs
Basically: "You said trans man ONCE so you can't be sapphic"
Well the joke's on them bc I thought I was a trans man for a decade before I realized I'm actually a lesbian and they let my ass in. But maybe they just looked at my pinned and decided I was "fem" enough 😬😬😬
@skibidadayo
@ashleythetaguel
@DreamWorldNoma1
Thought I "crushed" on dudes too when I was that age. Lots of lesbians do. Turns out it was comphet. Not saying what sexuality she is (I personally do not care) but comphet fucks many of us up for exactly this reason, so this explanation isn't 100% proof of anything.
@knightofbunnies
MAYBE HIMBOS ARE SPECIAL CASES IN THAT THEY'RE ALREADY SO USED TO BEING WRONG, ADMITTING IT IS EASIER FOR THEM. Anyway, Trigger said fuck toxic masculinity! I'm so sorry I sent so many replies jfjvydfjfv

If a guy couldn't purchase Plan B, that would make it impossible for a trans man to purchase without outing himself, so I doubt they'd say no.
@MsGuidedButSoft
@Lisamaloneyy
If you read the article, the point is not that we should not have those spaces but that they already exist! They're becoming way more common! And the fact this discourse keeps recycling as though that isn't the case can be attributed to ideas of The Respectable Gays.

If one of the deep dark thoughts you're afraid to express for fear of some persecution is that the presence of nonbinary people in trans spaces somehow harms binary trans people, you are unfortunately punching down.

He's also self-reflective, willing to admit when he's wrong and apologize! That's a major change from Trigger's other protags! Little Witch is a personal favorite, but I was never able to truly enjoy Akko's character bc she lacks that self-reflective, humble quality Galo has.

Freddie makes me SO emotional, I adore her. There is something so special about watching a character surrounded by objectively stunning deities, who are all interested in her romantically, choosing her mundane best friend over them.

Caitlyn isn't just a tone modifier and support for Vi. Vi might be strong, but she's also somewhat static plot-wise.
Caitlyn is the Inciting Incident. She grabs the plot and hurls it forward. She actively challenges her own social norms and status to help others.

Trans men being real men doesn't mean they don't experience and enact their masculinity differently than cis men do. That's why intersectionality is so important. Blanket "I hate men" statements often come from white cis women and harm marginalized, poc men the most.
@jbles123
@JimSterling
I was going to ask what "social message" you were referring to until I saw transphobic retweets on your account. Sorry to say the message that trans people exist has been around a lot longer than a single generation, which you aged incorrectly btw.
@commiedarko
Depends on the context? Not seeing many people calling individual lesbians "sapphic". Seems like it's usually used for wlw groups involving differing (bi/lesbian, etc.) or undefined sexualities. But it would def suck to use it for a relationship involving only lesbians.
@LovelyCaveDemon
difficult to legally dispute an incident like this if both parties aren't adults. So I don't think the post is saying not to make suits for minors at all, just that adults in the fandom should probably deal with the minor's parents as an extra precaution.

@orchidtreks
My mother is looked down on to this day for her Appalachian accent. People make 1nc3st and education jokes about her, often to her face. It even happened to me, once, when I mentioned where my family was from to an employer.
Shipping "wars" could be fixed if we all accepted that fighting over fictional characters makes us look like idiots and we have so many more important things to do.

Yes, because the horse is wearing a bridle. There was a browband over the forehead when this horse was sweating. You can see the bridle's browband pushed up over one ear and still hooked over the other in the video.

We can drag this person's content consumption choices AND also defend general c0mmissi0ners rights, here. I don't think it's a good idea to set a precedent that essentially stealing several thousand dollars is excusable because the buyer likes p0rn I don't like.
@knightofbunnies
because he was intended to be a lesson for Simon. The lead up to the scene where Galo reveals he's been distracting Lio to give the team time to get into position for a group attack feels like a direct subversion of the Kamina Protagonist trope and it's so so good!

@A_Silent_Child
100% feel this. It can set off my RSD despite knowing they only mean well! I've always worried about the way we talk about this sort of thing online because the discussion inevitably forgets that other ND people can be upset by this sort of thing, too.
@Ovirtuous_
I'm a former musician and I'm so sorry people are making fun of your choice of words rather than enjoying a fun/funny turn of phrase. I see someone has already explained it, but if it helps for the future, there are most likely free apps online that can parse sheet music for you!
@LuckeeNein
Really glad to see someone spell it out this way because seeing trans masc folks say shit like "well I have fewer rights but when I pretend I'm cis people don't actively try harm me" as proof of Privilege always makes me feel insane. Feels abit like the mass blaming of systemic

It feels a lot like the studio took the bits of their previous protagonists that audiences couldn't connect to and changed them specifically. Galo is what Kamina (despite not being a Trigger production, staff worked on GL and referenced it even in shot composition) couldn't be
Desperately want to find an artist who'd be cool using a fullbody photo of me as a ref for art of a fursona. I want her to look like me SO BAD!!! My shape and squish included!
@clammyheart
People getting angry about this don't realize they're actually angry that they're being priced out by capitalists refusing to pay a living wage, not the artist/small business. Their instincts are correct, the situation sucks, but they just don't know how to articulate why.
