Oh yeah, whenever I see men whining and complaining about something to do with women, I feel this sense of euphoric calm; this feeling of ‘I remember this. I’m not part of that group anymore. They don’t speak for me.’
It has a tinge of melancholy afterwards, because I still have to deal with men, yet I feel less embarrassed for myself.
Reading over these comments brings me back to why I came out as non-binary, and the gender euphoric boost is quite nice.
Their managers are also call center employees who will filter that noise out. That’s one of the reasons to employ a call center.
Then how did Collective Shout cause all of these companies to do what they want with ~1000 phone calls?
Patricio Manuel is 3-1 in boxing. His main issue is men won’t fight him now because they’re terrified of losing to a trans man. It’s patriarchy all the way down, so generally the accomplishments of men who’ve transitioned and suppressed, because it kind of shatters the entire ‘unfair’ claim when trans men can win. It also doesn’t help them that being a trans woman isn’t some kind of automatic win; I can’t remember her name, one woman was claimed to be ‘cheating’ because she was trans, but she got 6th in the event. So the entire ‘huge advantage for people born men’ thing keeps getting disproved time and again.
Replit is an agent that does stuff for you including deploying to production.
Ahahahahahhahahahahhahahaha, these guys deserve a lost database for that, Jesus.
That’s why I’m thinking the folders were merged in error.
This would require so many different people to fuck up it seems pretty unlikely, not to mention they would have to take those images, resize/edit them, put them into the game, and have not one person notice they deviate from the images that were agreed upon. You don’t just ‘upload someones folder’.
Oh wow that was incredible, hahaha.
I can almost guarantee you that what happened is that Antireal’s art was saved to one of the artists’ “inspiration” folders, and somewhere between creating an inspo gallery and that artist quitting/getting laid off, the files got merged into a “concept/assets” folder. Likely when going through the laid off artist’s hard drives, they found images that they probably assumed were all originals.
I’ve worked in games for 18 years, and outright theft of assets happens constantly. I worked on a game where an artist took an asset (from a rather well known game) and outright used it, no changes. Another place I worked an artist took an (extremely unique) weapon from an IP and just copied it over.
If you look at the Bungie art it couldn’t possibly be an inspo gallery because they are just straight up used with (some) changes made to them. This was absolutely known to have occurred, and wasn’t ‘an’ artist. You can see why they do this because even in the event they’re caught, they can blame a former employee, and pay some nominal fee for the actual artists work.
Trans rights are under attack, maybe let someone be happy if the found something to be happy about, why can’t you let them enjoy it?
I mean cool appeal to emotion but that isn’t what we were talking about. The government is attacking the rights of people who are trans, including their passports, and pretending they aren’t isn’t helping anyone. When people were under threat from the Nazi’s in the 30’s would it have helped to tell people to just ‘let them be happy’ when the Nazi’s weren’t yet able to put them in camps?
Having traveled before with someone in that exact situation, yes, there will be harassment and TSA may very well intentionally force you miss your flight and end up waiting to fly standby on the next one. But as of now, you generally do get through, which cannot be said for traveling internationally without any passport at all.
So you were in this exact scenario, TSA prevented the person from flying like we’ve been saying, but then didn’t prevent them from flying on a standby on the next flight?
Colour me skeptical.
Because they did issue a fully authorized passport… Even with the wrong information, the government has issues it for them to be able to travel
And because the information is inaccurate, it’s pretty likely to not work as a passport.
After hearing she was still issued a passport at all? Yes, actually. There are quite a few (trans) people who probably feel a little bit safer than they did yesterday when they thought they were trapped in the country.
How does having the wrong gender on your passport mean you aren’t trapped in the country?
Honestly the US is so antagonistically into ‘individualism’ I’m not sure how you’d even start to build that. Americans have been brainwashed into thinking that everyone else is right on the edge of breaking into their houses and raping their entire families; look at the entire idea of arming yourself with firearms to prevent ‘home invasions,’ and then glossing over the stats that you’re magnitudes more likely to be shot by your husband than assaulted by a stranger.
I think the ideal would be a Communal approach, where each neighbourhood works to help the people inside it, and those people reach out to help others nearby, yet I am not sure the average American will trust their neighbours enough to do this. When every branch of your government is full of capitalist fascists, who can you depend on to fix your roads, get you to the hospital, put out the fire in your home? These fascists are going to cut funding to everything the ‘middle class’ and poor rely on, and the worst part is that a lot of those people will not only vote for it, but cheer it on right up until it effects them.
I’d love to be wrong about all of this, but I’ve been watching the US for my entire life, and I was born in the early 80’s, and I just don’t see enough of you guys caring for each other. The speed with which you turn on each other is staggering; how long did it take Democratic candidates to blame ‘woke’ policies or your population who are trans for losing the election? I’ve been told my entire life your second amendment was to protect yourself and your neighbours from the Evil Government. Then Fascists take over your government, and it’s silence. I think we all knew, outside of your country, that the people most fiercely defending it just wanted to protect their hobby, but watching you allow gun violence to become the most common way for children to die broke my heart. And to then watch you not even use those weapons to protect your 2SLGBTQIA+ neighbours, to not rise up and fight back against ICE putting people in concentration camps, has removed any faith I had that just maybe you guys had something there, that maybe I just couldn’t see that you’d use it to help others.
I wish you all the best of luck, yet from here it looks like yet another oligarchy where people talk a big game about fighting for each other, only to immediately back down when it looks like you might have to put your own selves on the line. I love you all and will be quietly sobbing while you defend your actions.
It’s true, I should spend less time here on Lemmy.
EDIT: If you think I haven’t heard/experienced those things on Lemmy, oh boy do I have bad news for you. I’ve had to make multiple accounts for every time a bunch of MGTOW guys decide to spam my account with messages/downvotes, so I’m used to it. Downvote away :)
