@catgang Nope, they just instantly start punching each other.

@popefucker@cybre.space Ah, C-SPAN makes sense now.

@ink_heart How could you do this.

Princess Bojack will haunt my dreams.

@klendool The reason this is seen in Social Justice circles as a Not Done thing is because referring to Native Americans as Indians dates back to An incompetent navigator by the name of Christopher Columbus (or maybe someone else, I'm not entirely sure) Mistaking North America for India, and thus assuming the people who live here were Indian. Basically, referring to Native Americans as Indians is sort of rubbing in the history of colonialism. At least, that's what I understand of it.

@Beancatte@chitter.xyz Nice to meet you! I wish you well, and hope that the people you encounter respect you as the woman you are.

@ink_heart J.K. Rowling: Well if you were paying attention you would have noticed that [spins a wheel] Cho Chang was actually [Throws a dart at a table full of open dictionaries] Mortified with [hails down a passing car to ask them their favorite HP character] Minerva McGonagall throughout the whole series.

It's *subtext*

@Beancatte@chitter.xyz Hey, I don't know who you are, so I'm going to introduce myself (Hi, I'm the Anarkat, He/Him) and ask you your pronouns because I don't see them posted.

Hello. What are your pronouns?

J.K Rowling: Ron Weasley is an actual weasel. Literally. That's not common in the wizarding world, but no one thought to mention or even comment on it once.

@gazelle Try going to a furniture upholstery store and ask try out some of their foams. I bet a 2 inch to 4 inch medium density foam rectangle would suit you well.

@starwall only mildly disappointed that this isn't actually a video.

@CornishRepublicanArmy Good luck. I grew up having to deal with mormon BS. I moved a few thousand miles away and rarely talk to them now. THe trip to visit them was more of an excuse to drive the coast (which I've been wanting to do for a while) than to actually see them. My family was just a convenient destination and stopping point for the trip.

For now, I'm not exactly No Contact, but I'm still trying to decide whether I want to make that step. They've been better since I moved away but IDK

@garfiald Wait, so you haven't cashed your $oro$buX check yet?

@CornishRepublicanArmy I made a surprise visit to my family who lives over a thousand miles from me along with a man that they'd never seen before.

Now, they're well aware that I moved far away to get away from their bs, and so even though there was a possibility that he was my boyfriend (he wasn't, but we were quite close) they didn't say shit about him staying over christmas, because they had the space, and knew I could just leave and not talk to them for a year or more and not miss them.

@annachronism Just think of it like Space Invaders.

The processing load and lag is a part of the experience and challenge!

@SpunkyAlpaca The jet setters bring the plane out.

Everyone else is just a jet rider.

@J An artifact of colonialism.

@Zero_Democracy It's what I like about New Vegas. Very few characters are marked as "unkillable" even temporarily. You can murder-hobo your way across the mojave and still finish the game with your 67th Yes-Man at your side.

Looks like I woke up to dinosaurs on my dash.
