Roko's basilisk, if you run an online forum for “futurist” dumbasses.

As a lesbian trans person I like the words dyke and tranny, but only use it for myself. They're funny and cute. I was honestly surprised to learn that people are so deeply against the words.

As a lesbian trans person I'll be glad to not hear those words said about me thanks.

Religion, Politics, Political Genders, and...maybe Football. The real football.

What makes a gender political? First I'm hearing that term.

It's a play on the joke "There are 3 genders, male, female, and political"

With women, bathroom talk. With the boys we always talk about shit and piss and crack each other up. But mention anything related to that around a girl, she'll look at you as if you killed her dog.

I feel like I’m not good with words, so when I criticize popular things like Baldur’s gate 3 or Witcher 3 I usually get downvoted

People put BG3 on a massive pedestal and any sort of valid complaint around launch was heavily downvoted. It's not quite as bad now, thank god. I got gaslit so much. Everything was my fault supposedly, not their perfect, polished game.
