Awesome (cool)

It's one of two things:

1. It's deliberate infantilization of disabled people.

or 2. The puritanical impulses of American society are SO Fucking Off the Goddamn Walls at this point that most able bodied people can't recognize the cognitive dissonance of a film saying fuck but not letting the same exact adult audience read the word fuck.

Last week, the Trump administration quietly released a sweeping new federal rule that would use funding threats to force institutions across the country to reject transgender people. The 400-page proposed regulation would codify the administration's anti-trans executive orders into binding federal policy, imposing a blanket prohibition on federal funds going toward "gender ideology"

The proposed rule, formally titled "Regulation for Federal Financial Assistance," rewrites the government-wide framework governing all federal grants across every agency. Among its most consequential provisions, it requires that before a federal grant recipient can receive money, the award must pass a "pre-issuance review" conducted by a political appointee—not a career expert or peer reviewer—to ensure it is "consistent with applicable law, Federal agency priorities, and the national interest." The regulation explicitly instructs these appointees to screen for "denial by the recipient of the sex binary in humans or the notion that sex is a chosen or mutable characteristic." [...] An institution that acknowledges transgender people exist—through its policies, its training, its healthcare, its bathroom access, its HR procedures, its name-change processes—could be deemed to "deny the sex binary" or to “support the notion that sex is mutable” and have its federal funding blocked.

I always gets excited when I hear about these, but then I start digging into it and it's always a English Relex, or worse, a substitution cipher, which is boring.

I want to see one where the devs throw a whole conlang with crazy grammars in there. Doesn't necessarily need to impact the gameplay, but clearly indicated to not be gibberish. Leaves traces of lore throughout the game in the language, and clues to help solve it like a Rosetta Stone. Bonus points if the language is non-linear.

And if it gets popular the community would have to come together and try to solve it like a giant messed up ARG + IOL Puzzle abomination. Organize alphabet charts and morphemes. Draw syntax trees and make case tables. It'd be glorious!
