MossyFeathers

What a fucking child. Sure, dude. A state where the politics revolve around making sure the "wrong Americans" disappear is absolutely on the same level as being a socialist mayor of NYC.

Least fascist and most reasonable politician over here.

I've honestly been considering going back to Reddit but disabling comments in all but a handful of subreddits. My world has been a hell of a lot smaller since I started using Lemmy and has been shrinking.

Man up, stop crying. Walk it off. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. It builds character.

talk over all female characters because you know better than them. Disregard professional advice if it comes from a female character. Ask if you can get a second opinion, but only if the first one comes from a female character. Females are lower than men. Your job is to provide for them. They do not have the emotional stability to run anything. That's why they clean, cook, and take care of children. That is why men handle politics, governance, leadership, and other important roles. Wo- cough Females can't be trusted to be stable enough to handle such big tasks. You are important. You are big and dominant. Feeeeemales are small and submissive.

Real men have muscles. Real men don't cry. Real men are physically strong. Real men are stoic, only showing emotion in instances of overwhelming happiness or loss. Real men know how to fight. Real men never back down. Real men never run away. Real men can do anything. As a man, you own the world around you, including feeeeemales.

I can keep going, but tbh I feel gross. I had to deal with a lot of this as a kid. I don't think my parents realized how gross the male adults around me were, otherwise I'm pretty sure they would have been shocked and appalled by it.

Heretic. Something about that word feels very relevant in modern society...

Ew. If I had a partner who'd voted for Trump, we'd be done.

"Oh but Mossy, you're so heartless, how could you-"

Bitchass motherfucker, I'm trans. That should be all I have to say.

Imagine your husband voting for a racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic rapist who runs for a political party which has openly advocated for genocide both abroad and on US soil, and not divorcing him for his complete and utter lack of morality. Fucking gross.

WTF, the Nazi bar analogy wasn't supposed to be in support of the creation of Nazi bars. Are you okay? Did you recently hit your head? What the fuck have you been smoking?

Edit: Yep, knew it'd be unpopular. Rather than just downvoting me, though, why not tell me why you disagree?

Because I don't even know where to start. The biggest part, I suppose, is that if you give them a space like this, it normalizes the movement. People stop feeling like there is something wrong with disliking the LGBT community, the movement grows as it is no longer stigmatized, and LGBT rights backslide.

Furthermore, holding a "hetero pride" festival during pride month is inherently bigoted as well. Pride month exists because straight people wouldn't let gay people express themselves otherwise. Your idea isn't totally unlike the idea of letting klansmen openly hold festivals during Black History month so they stop harassing black people.

Do it on the clock, during a work day. Make sure you plan for nothing to get done that day. Make it optional: go to the field trip (expenses paid), or take a free day of PTO. Either way they get paid and, because you planned for it in the development schedule, don't have to worry about potentially having to play catch up because of the day off later. That way it gives them the choice to go do something fun on the company's dime or stay at home and recharge. Another thing to note: don't limit yourself to game-related stuff like video game museums.

Go to an aquarium.

Go to a zoo.

Go to a national park if there's one nearby.

Go to a natural science museum.

The artistic side of game dev takes inspiration from a wide variety of sources, not just other forms of media. Tbh, the most boring field trip I can think of would be to go to a movie theater or video game museum. I want to see something new and take inspiration from that.

Weighted Wildlife. They specify how much each one weighs on their site. I have an opossum from them and I love her. She's one of my favorite plushies (don't tell the others I said that though). They've also got some 5lbs dragons in the works.

Creep Cat Toy Company also makes some weighted plushies like the raccoon and opossum, and the weighted ones come with a zipper in the belly so you can, remove, or move the weighted bean bags around.

This is so dumb. The random hair on top of everything just... I don't even know what to say.
