Why do you post this here for trans people to see? What will this achieve exactly, outside of making our days a bit worse?
Just started The daughter of Doctor Moreau yesterday.
Before that, Rana Joon and the one and only now was absolutely wonderful and I really recommend it.
I have no recommendations but please know that Gender Trouble is actually a psyop book written only to melt the brain of people who attempt to read it (/s)
I just can’t get my head around this monster of a book!
Isn’t that just the metadata?
I think starting with Color of Magic is just fine, IF you know and enjoy classic heroic fantasy. Otherwise it’s very hard to enjoy without understanding what tropes it’s mocking.
people really hate when developers are paid for their work huh
What a ride. I had heard of Empress but had never found the courage to try and understand the memes. Thanks for this!
Love this!!
What’s the point of this post? Outside of slightly worsening everyone’s day, that is?
Many aren’t good examples, that’s kind of the point of the article.
Yes, that’s what I’m saying :)
Yeah, almost mentioned them but they wouldn’t be covered by the Pope’s decisions, but you’re right - and I assume in some catholic communities they might have similar practices even though that’s a minority case.
Many people choose get baptized later in life, usually after conversion.
Yes, it’s so much work - I had a pretty unique first name that I had been using as my pseudonym on social media etc. and that was an extra hassle, + THE EMAILS! Changing the email address on EVERYTHING was such a nightmare and I still haven’t bothered on some of them haha
Ahh yeah, I’ve always seen people put their real name when they live in apartments so that the delivery person would know who to call. But that’s a good point, I might start using pseudonyms :)
No, it’s not normal to use pseudonyms for everything where you get billed, which can be a lot of small different services.
(And more generally, I don’t think this is the nicest or most useful thing to say to someone who’s venting.)
Ahhh I’m so glad. I hope you’re feeling better and that it’s nothing too awful 💙
Yes, especially books I want to lend to friends because I thought they deserved attention.
I don’t know about the author, but I’m on Linux and Android and the apps I see on Notion Calendar are for Windows and Mac for desktop and for iOS on phone.
I’ve tried the web client a bit when it came out but it just didn’t really click for me (as in, I didn’t see how it would be better than any email client that has an integrated calendar). Also, calendar web clients just don’t answer the issue, in my opinion. And regular Notion is slow and clunky in my experience, so I haven’t given them the benefit of the doubt on the Calendar part of their tooling. :)
