YouTuber whose content I really like: "Subscribe to me on YouTube..."
Me: *getting ready to smash that button*
YouTuber: "...and Rumble"
Me: *clicks "Do Not Recommend Channel"*

Oof.

If you stream/post on the alt-right platform that hosts Truth Social, you're a no-go for me.

I have a joke about Final Fantasy X but you'll only fake-laugh at it.

Does it count as successfully stream-sniping your friend in FFXIV if you give two /dotes and an /allsaintscharm and the only thing they notice is your Firebird divebombing them?

This is true. And people also forget some of the first books the Nazis burned were from the Institut Für Sexualwissenschaft because they researched trans people. So willing to sacrifice trans people for fascism, is quite literally validating fascism.

a lot of people act like there's a trade being offered where we give up trans athletes in sports and in exchange fascism is defeated forever

...Assumption #4 has been driving me batshit, yet no one seems to realize it: if you're worried trans ppl might potentially harm your Dem candidate's chances, then YOUR CANDIDATE MADE A BAD DECISION! so why not join us in trying to get them to reverse position? juliaserano.medium.com/on-democrats...
screenshot from linked-to essay that reads: Assumption #4: The elephant in the room that no one is talking about There is a striking disconnect between Talarico, Turek, et al. — who have clearly made a political calculation that abandoning trans rights will help them more than it will hurt them in this election — and the many cisgender liberals I’ve encountered online who are absolutely freaking out over the possibility that trans people’s critiques and protests will ultimately tank said candidates. Both of these things cannot simultaneously be true! If you think your favorite candidate enacted the correct political strategy, then there is no reason to berate trans people for protesting it, as those protests should already be baked into your candidate’s calculations. So why are you berating trans people then? (Unless, of course, you enjoy berating trans people just for the sake of it.) Alternatively, if you think trans people *are* capable of tanking your favorite candidate via our criticisms and protests, doesn’t that imply that your candidate (and their consultants and strategists) totally fucked up in their political calculations here? And if they did fuck up, shouldn’t you be reaching out and complaining to *them* (rather than berating trans people), in the hope that they might reverse their bad decision?

I keep finding the most hilarious softlocks in FFX thanks to the Cutscene Remover. If you ever wanted a speedrun that teaches you trigger discipline, this is it - moving before you're supposed to has a very real chance of putting you in an invalid position you can't get out of.

I know it's a bit of a meme category, but I'm working on Final Fantasy X Cutscene Remover Any% with Boosters and I just did my first start-to-finish timed run and got a time that would be 11th place if I had recorded it to be submitted. Not feeling too bad about that!
