Wow. Good animation! Poor girl. I hope shes ok. 😿

Thanks for the CW. Many probably feel like this, so it's important to talk about

I actually did when it came out! I like the dragon healer, the raccoon girl and Saskia here. Lots of cuties in this game!

A Norwegian newspaper got to see his letter of denial and it didn't list drug use at all. Rather they said he tried to enter the country to get a job illegally.

At this point, CBP's story keeps changing, and I don't trust anything they say.

You are welcome, no matter your sexuality. You'll still fit in :)

I'd like to read this in a positive light, if not just for my own sanity.

I choose to believe they probably had a hunch because of the flag and wanted to reassure the non-cis person that quote unquote "passing" is getting easier and easier. Kind of a silent endorsement that you should be who you are because you can't tell anymore and that's a good thing.

Please let me believe

Really hate how a whole demographic is seen as an "issue". They're not hurting anyone, people just wanna be themselves. Fuck off

Nobody is probably going to care, but I just had a realization.

I am the kind of person who has always appreciated a good laugh, so I used to frequent old meme sites. Some years ago, I would've been wondering why this comic implies these women are transfem when the ✨✨L O R E✨✨ doesn't say any of this.

Due to the aforementioned meme sites, I might have also been a little annoyed at this as well, because on those meme sites, that seemed to be the prevalent take.

It's been a while, but I remember gamergate being a turning point for me. I started realizing that... Huh... These people actually fucking suck, and I got out of those areas.

I came across this comic while checking out /c/all, and.. well... That's when the realization hit.

First thought: "I don't remember any of these women being trans in the ✨✨L O R E✨✨, but who cares? I learned about gels being a thing, and the Bowsette point is actually pretty funny. Wow, it really doesn't matter (nor ever should have mattered) how these characters are represented in fan comics."

...

Second thought: "Man, I'm so happy you guys get to share stuff like this. Y'all are brave and I'm really glad you're getting the possibility of being yourselves! It's something a lot of people take for granted!"

You guys rule. Don't let anyone stop you from enjoying yourselves and just... existing as yourselves.

It's been at least 10 years since I reached the point where I admire your bravery instead of thinking it was... I don't even know?? Attention seeking?? It was a completely irrational narrative being pushed on those sites, but once I got out, started thinking a bit for myself, I saw how destructive that was.

Seeing this comic just gave such a stark reminder of the difference a decade can do on a person, so... Thank you for letting me compare and contrast.

Today is the day. You like it, wear it!

Stuff like this really dilutes the "literal nazi" thing. I think it's hard to unify when whom to unify against is a bit difficult to define

I actually agree. He wiped off his clown make-up.

It's sad it took this long, but if enough people have this kind of realization, then the country may still heal. It's one less person squabbling with others in the same class, and I'm led to believe that is what the ruling class fears most.

It's easy to see this as a jaded mindset, and heck, maybe it is.. but it's still anyone's prerogative to just say "I don't want to discuss this, and if you don't like it, there's the door".

I sometimes engage in good faith conversations, where I later realize the good faith was only from one side of the argument. That SUCKS, so I get it.

Personally, I'll still try to talk, but just because I'm a naive fool doesn't mean others need to be :P

Came here to say this exact thing. Just goes to show it's always a liiiiittle worse than you'd expect with these files

Not autistic, but I teach people with mild cases of autism.

The "excuse" I most often hear is that they haven't started doing the work they're supposed to be doing, because they didn't have their computer there.

That's less of a reason and more of an excuse, because the solution is easy for these kids. "Go get the computer". They know they can, and in fact often do.

The real reason is that they'd rather sit and chat with their friends instead of doing work (who doesn't?), and if they were honest about that, I'd appreciate it a lot more.

Often, I guess you could equate an excuse to a "bad reason".

A big one :(

For me, with Sync, it's "Glide failed to grab this media"

In norway, the lowest voter turnout we've ever had is 75.4%

It's also shapeshifting for me, but it ain't cuz I'm trans. It's cuz I'm a big dinking furry. So same same, but different. Solidarity! Happy pride
