walkie-talkie static, white noise telepath

hoping for transfem ralsei is like losing chess to a dog but the dog is known friends with a bunch of grandmasters and also a dog did recently win a chess tournament kinda and so maybe this dog could have hands so I should see where this goes

i really need people to be so fucking careful in and around discussions of literacy because stuff like "this culture didn't develop a written language ergo they are mentally inferior to us" and "people with this disability are unable to read ergo they are mentally inferior to us" have been eugenicist talking points for a very long time

Endlessly diabolical how you can't say words like rape and suicide uncensored without either being criticised by idiots or punished by conglomerates.

It's not r*pe, it's rape. It's not su*cide, it's suicide. Not unalive, dead. The backbone needs to be reintroduced en masse because softening the blow of these concepts with advertising language does absolutely nothing but allow people unaffected by them to feel not even a sting of what they can do, prompting inaction.

And it's been proven that on certain websites, you don't even face a repercussion for using the words as they are. People just started censoring themselves because they feared the potential lack of views and likes and followers which is so nasty itself.

I attended an anti-suicide seminar in college. One of the big takeaways from it was that stigmatizing suicide increases the rate of suicide, because people who are feeling suicidal feel like they can't ask for help. Every time I see babytalk garbage like 'unalive', I think of that.

the concept is so good its so good imagine you're a repressed gay boy in a small homophobic town and you've quietly been in love with your straight best friend since you were children knowing it's unrequited and something you can never have and then your best friend dies and you're the only one who sees his corpse so you're the only one who knows its not him when something comes back looking and acting just like him but feeling just a little off. and you should say or do something, you should, but this new version of him is so much touchier and needier towards you and suddenly it doesn't feel unrequited anymore. and its not him but its also everything you ever wanted and if you just pretend you don't know that there's something parading your best friend's corpse around you can pretend he loves you too

does anyone else think about how brave all their friends are and get really emotional about it

I'm glad everyone is alive rn
