I have opinions

Guess who got stuck in a three-hour quest sequence with no savepoints thirty minutes before bedtime?

Paradox of tolerance! It's a thing!

As someone who was let go (contract didn't get renewed without any explanation or warning) for being trans, because the lady in charge of hiring and contracts was a bigot... I'm really not fond of this "don't fire people for being bigoted" argument.

People who go to Proud Boy meetings might know better than to say anything racist, sexist, etc at work... but they are still going to take those attitudes to work and interfere with the careers of marginalized people.

Would you rather a trans person or a TERF be out of a job? Pick one, there's no third option here.

No one called me an appropriating freak either

I was part of an academic-ish discussion on the Holocaust and it was... so different from what I got used to on Tumblr.

I could talk about how it affected my family and how the trauma of the war and everything involved has been passed down for generations, and no one tried to demand I show my Jewish credentials or attempted to run me out when it turned out that I don't have any (being, y'know, not Jewish).

I know better than to say it, but...

Company: "We like to hire people who are passionate about the work!"

Me, an anticapitalist: "Because they're less likely to demand decent working conditions and livable pay?"

I like cabbage but kale tastes totally different

Can someone who likes kale explain the appeal to me, because to me it just tastes like... leaves. Not even particularly crunchy leaves, even.

I just want fake tuna that tastes like tuna...

The fact that the only store in the area that has vegetarian tuna replacement is Whole Foods is making me very unhappy.
