  Thanks to American Exceptionalism we have both.

  I had sort of the opposite as a trans lesbian. I thought that I was just really attracted to girls, but it turns out some of that was me wanting to be like them.

  My waifu is in my username, actually, although it’s a lesser known character. It’s Mk23 from Girls’ Frontline.

  Maybe there are stupid questions. :P

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honestly ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Only 50/50? Can I spam the button to get both guaranteed?

  Bold of you to assume that I can afford to keep nice furniture like that

  If it were government controlled, it would be accountable to the people, to the extent that the government is democratic (ideally, much more than it is now), and would also be run as a service rather than for profit.

  In the short term, I think that collectively being Karens about it would be to reverse the pressure, by steering the monopolists away from oppressing us. Because they are mainly motivated by money.

  In the long term, take away their monopoly power.

  I meant pressing the payment processors, like those prude activists are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just because they always have been doesn’t mean it’s good. It’s definitely not good for private companies to have monopoly power like that. That power will only be used for their gain (and our collective loss).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I am a strong believer in democracy. I don’t think that the answer to a bad government is to reduce the power of the government, because that power will inevitably go to undemocratic institutions. Only the government is accountable to the people. So even when the government is currently controlled by people I dislike, I still want more things to be brought under the power of the government rather than privatized.

  The answer to bad government actions, in my view, is to fight for a more democratic government, and zealously advocate for good ideas among the voting population.

  Since this is caused by activist pressure on the payment processors, perhaps a grassroots activist campaign of our own could change their mind. Especially if we threaten to stop using their services in favor of any competitor that allows all legal purchases.

  In theory, crypto could be good for this, but crypto is used (and designed) more as an investment than a transaction tool.

  Also, the issue here is not centralized currency under a government, it’s centralized payment processing under monopolistic private companies. Crypto is not required to solve that, all that is needed is an alternative payment processor.

  Sounds like a totally cis thing to do.

  It’s not that, it’s that I’m moving to a different state and he’s not licensed to see patients in that state. :P

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'I want to acknowledge that we messed up': NZXT addresses concerns about its controversial Flex gaming PC rental program and commits to taking action⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  NZXT Flex customers have never experienced a pre-tax subscription price increase and will never experience one unless they decide to switch subscription tiers.

  I think they’re forgetting the part where GN themselves were a NZXT flex customer who experienced subscription price increases. So this statement is already proven to be false before they even said it.
