  • Not to mention the cultural shift of having things that last and passing them down (or at least passing them to someone) to now cheap and low-quality things that need frequent repurchasing. The climate effects of an item that's passed down for a century are much smaller than even "environmentally friendly" item that lasts a few years.

  • You don't need to answer if you're trans or not. Do you think you'd feel better presenting differently? Try it. Think you'd feel better on HRT? Try it. Think you'd feel better going by another name? Try it. You can do all of that without addressing the big trans question; and if you're not trans, well, maybe you still feel better presenting differently for instance, so trying's still a net positive.

    I told myself this to allow myself to do things, and eventually the trans question answered itself for me. But that didn't really matter, because regardless of the answer I was better off for trying things and learning about myself.

  • Those objects would still exist, but they wouldn't be recognized as manifestations of the same category "car". And they are quite different from each other, just look at electric vs gas, and vs motorcycles which somehow aren't cars.

  • One word descriptions rarely fit completely neatly. Is that (hypothetical) object over there blue? Blueish? Blue-green? Cyan? Blue gradient? Mostly blue? I say any of those are close enough depending on how precisely you want to communicate that object to people, and if they give you a hard time over it they're just being annoying.

  • Someone help me run an experiment

  • Don't dying people know that dying is associated with increased chance of death? Just don't 👍

  • They invented more genders and somebody had to take them

  • It's a neat option, but should not be forced.

  • Websites should not get to dictate my security model. I'll accept annoying me about being less secure because I get that people are dumb, but you've gotta choose somehow! Also, any passkey is safer than a password, so that's still BS.

  • Another perspective: it might suck, but it's a thing used to differentiate and invalidate trans women so it's understandable for some trans women to want it. Standing out also sucks. I agree I'd get rid of it universally too, but until that happens it's another "real woman" test that could be used against me.

  • "It's not that deep" feels the same as "it's just a joke". No, it's a joke with a point, and that point is wrong. I will not let people smuggle in a bad idea without criticism just because they phrased it as a joke or sarcasm.

  • "The deep state ate my face" - Leopards Eating People's Faces voter.

  • Something the general public doesn't understand is that disorders are only disorders if they're actually an issue for the person. An obsessive compulsion is only OCD if it's an issue; if the person doesn't care, it's probably not a disorder. A neuro-endocrine difference is only a disorder if the person feels it is. And even then, "disorder" doesn't mean they're required to do anything about it if they don't want to, because it's their body and their choice. This goes against the eugenics-y idea most people have that diagnosis means you must have that "fixed".

    I wish people would interpret these as potential issues with studied options rather than brokenness requiring fixing.
