TFW I'm not applauded as an ally by the transpeople I'm actively misgendering.
It's a warning about carelessness when crossing certain patches of desert in Kenshi.

Here in Wales it's absolutely the case that people'll just dump their entire life story to strangers on public transport (and also at bus stops, train stations, queues in shops, and in the middle of the street if you don't walk away fast enough).
From what I've experienced of England, it's the exact opposite where strangers won't even look you in the eye unless they're drunk in which case they'll suddenly become incredibly chatty.
What do you think the percentage of homophobic violence is carried out by cishets Vs closeted homosexuals? Because from my experience it is overwhelmingly bigoted cishets doing this sorta shit.
In place of trying to extrapolate a whole-arse sexual complex of someone neither of us know anything about I'd prefer to stick with what's more likely.
Especially because this sorta self blaming of the queer community for its suffering has historically been used to minimise it (gay panic defences being used in cases murdered transfemmes for example).
Why are you so keen to blame homophobic violence on gay people?
Couldn't be that a systemically homophobic country with a media landscape pushing hard on queerphobic stochastic terror propaganda would empower dickheads to attack queer people. No, the murderer must secretly be gay.

Dr Who finale rant
"I'm sorry but this key is way to powerful for the 21st century."
The time has come for the series to come to it's end and this current incarnation of the Doctor with it. Omega has returned as a Dark Souls boss and it's down to the doctor to stop him. Cue the worst paced episode of Dr Who since that terrible War Games remaster.
But most importantly... An entire series spanning arc and two whole episodes, all of the Ranni in this series was all there as setup for a shitty, stilted Two Ronnies reference? Honestly fuck this show.
Things I liked:
- that scene where the Doctor and Belinda forget that Poppy existed, episode shoulda ended here on what is a highpoint in an otherwise bad episode.
Things I didn't like:
-
Omega. This is the second finale villain in a row I've likened to a Dark Souls boss, this time it's not just an aesthetic thing, much like Yhorm the Giant after so much build up he got rinsed in, like, 5 minutes by a weapon lying around in his boss room.
-
that scene in the TARDIS where two Doctors just rattled various Dr Who catchphrases at each other.
Overall:
I didn't like it. Real let-down episode in what was largely a good series. Could've been 20 minutes shorter and nothing of value would be lost save the Doctors regeneration. It wasn't as bad as the Eurovision episode but that is a trivially low bar to clear.
The worst part of transitioning for a superhero is getting the spinal removal surgery so you can do the boobs and butt pose.
Second worst is having to get used to sticking the vacuum under your clothes.
The worst part of transitioning for an adventurer isn't getting the literal breastplate fitted to all your armour, it's the voice training to change your pain grunts from "ugh" to "ugh~ ♥️".
It looks like a Russian reskin of that shitty Door Kickers sequel.
That overused quippy banter shit has made me curious for the (inevitably terrible) Elden Ring film that got announced.
Your average movie writer wouldn't be able to just let the visual humour of something like the warrior jars just be, they don't trust the audience enough for that. So either there'll be "well that just happened"-ass quips when any of the goofier elements of the setting pop up, or they excise all of that and just make it as dour and joyless and grimdark as possible.
In my free time I've been playing a bit of Project Zomboid recently and stumbling 'round the McMansions of KY's various towns has made me think about how inherently hostile suburban infrastructure is.
Like, until you can get a car in working order, travel out of and through the suburbs is slow and tiring. Prepare to take days out of your travel time as you run down empty roads, hop fences, and do all sorts of other things I hear gets you shot in the US. As the power goes off and perishables begin rapidly decomposing, you are trapped in a maze-like prison of mankind's making (its occupants only marginally less hostile than a real-life suburb). Seeds are scarce and the only greenery is the copy-paste lawns surrounding you in every direction. If you've thought ahead you've stockpiled your tinned goods, otherwise prepare for a long hike through a world not built for man but instead the machines that they convinced themselves would make their lives easier.
Look how sad he is!

There was, like, a stall with this person handing them out.
"Such a shame guys. We were totally going to do something about climate change eventually, but then Putin invaded Ukraine."
Caws.
