Minecraft [CW: Transphobia]

Reply in thread

The obvious solution is introducing a gender verification system next to the age verification system (obviously also has to be implemented by a private for-profit company with minimal oversight because anything else would be socialist and evil).

Then, kids could either upload their government id or a picture of themselves naked. Those pictures have to be kept around indefinitely because security and analytics and feeding them into an ai model.

Then (because genitals always 100% identity someone's real sex and everybody has a real binary sex) the kid can only select the appropriate character! Simple as that!

(This is probably the worst thing I have ever written. But it doesn't feel implausible that someone would actually suggest this, which I think is testament to how bad the situation is.)

Tipping

Yeah but the waiters don't have a living wage in the us without tips while the fishermen get paid –

Sorry I just got word that the fishermen are actually just permanently trapped on the ships and do forced labour out somewhere in the Pacific

Are You Kids On Dopamine?

I think this is good advice and creating fake urgency is nothing but destructive for many. But then again we're all different and the clock setting techniques may be the perfect fit for many others. The most important thing is that you try things and if you try something that doesn't work, most of the time you can't just try again harder to make it work. That will eventually break you.
