Some people don't care to see SA and loli bait on every other page.

It seems like scholars use different names as a form of historicization.

I'll keep that in mind when I'm being historicized. This just seems so far out of the daily experience of normal people that I don't really find it relevant.

The name the man himself actually wanted to be known as is El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz

It seems like this is the only justification that matters. Just because everyone currently refers to him by Malcom X doesn't mean it's valid or correct. It just means nobody is respecting his wishes which is pretty analogous to getting deadnamed.

When I came out, multiple people asked me this question, and I really don't understand why.

Decades ago, my uncle changed his name (from a male name to another male name), and nobody asked him "well, when we refer to you in the past, should I use your old name?"

Everyone just instinctively started using his new name to refer to him, even in the past, no questions asked.

You might think it's different for something like pronouns because they were different at the time, but it's not. For example, if someone said, "Dr. Thompson used to go swimming in the lake when she was a child." Nobody would say, "Oh, but she wasn't a doctor at the time, so you shouldn't refer to her as a doctor in the past tense." It's normal and intuitive to talk about people as they are now, even when referring to the past.

Trans people, for some reason, are just treated by different standards.

If liberals are being honest, they'll tell you that capitalism requires a certain percentage of homelessness.

I don't even really know what to say. These people are so stupid.

Like, why do you NEED them to be vermin who are killed on sight?

Would it be so fucking strange if a DM said, "hey, in my world, kobolds aren't evil". Seems like a normal fucking choice to make in a fantasy game??

Are there not enough conflicts to resolve in the setting? You NEED racially designated enemies?

Even if you took it to the extreme and said NOTHING in dnd is inherently evil? Would that be bad? Like, you could still kill them because they can still be antagonists.

PS. The one that really gets me is the person talking about them multiplying and killing farmers trying to guilt the person as if any of this is real doggirl-lol

I've been working with a 16kg for a while now. I should increase weight again.

They were right.

Kojima should just direct a shitty movie where he gets to hang out with actors and tell them to do weird shit. That's what he actually wants.

Describing Hayden Christensen circa the prequels as "testosterone aesthetic" is so fucking funny.

Were they not around at the time when it came out and everyone was complaining that they made vader such a whiny sissy?
