Why is society more willing to forgive Gary Sues, but Mary Sues are crucified, is it a Toxic Masculinity thing or is it just sexism, what's your theories?

Make friends with your local corvids. Give them one of your data backups for safekeeping.

his accent is more like generic eurotrash really

just a psa to no one in particular, bc this keeps happening to me and it's really frustrating:

white people, please consider that when you correct the word usage or provide brusque corrections of someone from another culture, you're punching down.

pretend every other sentence that you said was interrupted by someone telling you that you're wrong. now. pretend this is continuous and unavoidable.

that's how it often is to be a minority in a white space. the fediverse is a white space.

The other evening, a friend from Corsica was telling me about planting trees using salvaged World War 2 land mines.

A lot of soil in Corsica is very compacted so, after the war, people would drill a hole into the ground and drop a little explosive into it. The blast would loosen a small patch of ground and also fertilise it — the explosives used potassium nitrate, which is great for fruit trees.

So there are orchards in Corsica which were planted with explosives, and I think that's cool. 🍎 💣

Language and how we communicate has completely fostered this idea of Toxic Masculinity admittedly I can't remember my awesome examples, but it's this idea that it is wrong for guys to say these words or be called these words, but okay for a girl --- wait I REMEMBER --- one personal example as an Egg was the idea that I hated being called cute and it felt like belittling, whereas being called sexy was the goal.

So a friend of mine keeps responding to my anarchist ideas with "food deserts" as a critique, and I have been unable to retaliate until I realized: trains. A large network of trains to isolated places in the country could keep food deserts from forming by enabling the transfer of food to and from rural areas.

@PaladinQuinn And there's.... definitely *some* aspect of homophobia that's rooted in sexism, but I feel like there's more to it, and I can't quite put my finger on what it is.

Bell Hooks suggests that Homophobia is entirely rooted in sexism whereas Amber and I would argue that is is definitely more fitting to say this for Transphobia/Misia, because a lot of Homophobia rooted in Morality from Religion and twisted perceptions of teaching, do you think we are wrong?

Brb gonna go read the Cataclysmic of the Catholic Church real quick and do everything it explicitly says not to do. In order.

@MapleDeer This is why there's so much company-lead hate towards unions: When done right, they fucking *work*.
