i'm not in the mood to debate people on what this update from Kotaku means. i'm just gonna reiterate that in the case SE and Bailey are in negotiations for a contract renewal, you should be making your voice heard in the OF that G'raha's voice matters to you.

My life belongs to me and me only. The more they try to stop me from getting what I want, the more I realize how stupid this all is. Papers or not, I'm trans. They can kiss my trans ass.
Then they wonder why we're "radicalised". Bitch if you just let us live our lives, maybe we wouldn't be so angry.

quite frankly i think the next step for square in terms of glam should be unlocking all gender specific items and making it so you can swap between them at the dresser

It’s so easy to not be a transphobe or support them. it’s so easy to just play any other game. Saying you want to or think people should be allowed to choose to play games by bad people means you actually don’t care. Using your life philosophy or whatever to say it doesn’t matter is transphobic!!!

I dropped the $2000 number on my parents repeatedly when I was trying to apply for SSI and they didn't believe it could possibly be so low. They neglected to tell me about some stocks they'd gotten in my name that pushed me just over the limit. Application gone.
I don't think enough people realize that for many folks on disability they cannot risk having over a VERY low cap of money/property or they will lose their benefits nearly immediately
It often prevents folks from marrying as well it's ludicrous

Not super woke, but I wholly believe that there should be no billionaires. No one should be allowed to amass such a grotesque amount of money that they will never have any use for. At that point I feel like you should be taxed up the wazoo to bring that money back to the community.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

And this isn't even taking into account skill atrophy: right now we have skilled coders who were trained without relying on AI, but what happens in 10+ years when the next generation of coders come along who have relied on AI and lose the eye to tell the difference between good code and crap code?
We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.
The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

She has spoken at length about how support for the franchise is support for her. Even if you aren't spending money, just keeping the fandom alive with art and fics keeps her propped up with a platform, brings in new fans, and implicitly says you're cool with her politics.
