hey these soldiers are victims so

exactly! and whatever their relationship to the OP should be invisible to the poster (the website should acknowledge that the comment exists for any tracking or legal purposes but hides it from OP because they do not consent to see it) sites improve damage mitigation tactics for sure

artists and content creators should have the freedom to control whether or not they would like anonymous or logged in people to engage with them or not. since attention is the point rob them of the platform

I'm not nearly as technical but I think the behavior should be controlled rather than the accounts. For example if there's someone that's only following you and you are not following them back? they can only make a comment every few days. mutuals/favorites/lists custom frequency

Streaming is digital improv and is a performance, it's not that deep. The people out there calling it bullying or saying that it's so unprofessional that they're calling for recasts are absolutely delusional. I'm on another blocking spree because I will not entertain any of this nonsense.

I think it's really wild how many people feel as though they're entitled to know what the interpersonal relationships are between the actors in games that they play. Like, it's okay for someone to not mesh with someone else in their professional space. It's fine for someone to have feelings.

there are times when I wish I could take photos again but it's not worth the risk of people feeling like they're losing their agency or that they have lack of informed consent

under normal circumstances this is where legislature would step in and clarify the gray areas but well, it is what it is

and I'm talking randoms (informed students at a public university where I was doing a talk about them) - and being rightfully hostile anytime I wore them out in public. Eventually I stopped altogether and they're gathering dust, because what is a community if it doesn't feel safe when I'm in it?

I was always super upfront about when I was recording anything and made it very obvious when I winked to take a photo and also showed people the photos that I took. I realized very quickly that I was an exception and not the rule. Soon, people were touching my face without my consent -

in an age where photography is more accessible to anyone it's still out of reach for me, but honestly I knew that was a first world problem

my family scraped together just enough money to get me a pair, and for about a month it was genuinely one of the most liberating experiences of my life
