I wish there was a culture where they could say "Oh sorry we fucked that sequel up really bad, let's retcon it and try again"

As it is, one bad sequel can kill a whole fandom because it will never be undone.

Chatting up a local cutie when they decide to drop some absolutely depraved bloodthirsty zionism out of nowhere. How do I respond considering they know my name and could get me cancelled?

I am respecting them by using one of their preferred pronouns

Every micro-angstrom and so on.

She typed all lower case though. That means she said it quietly.

I'm happy to be wrong about it, and I'm certainly not trying to put gender constructs on people who feel the way you do, but I still think in the absence of other information it isn't an unreasonable conclusion to jump to. If you're wrong about it then it hasn't harmed anyone anyway. I'm most of all hurt that they would think I meant it that way. I've known these people for years.

I just got banned from my friend group's discord for saying "if someone just switched from their cis pronouns to 'any' they probably lean towards their trans pronouns but they're just dipping their toes in the water." For "not respecting peoples preferred pronouns"

There's literally no context I'm leaving out and the mods refuse to discuss it until I apologise .-.

I can see how it might come across as NB erasure but I expect they also would want to try their "new" pronouns out too.

If you have to read PDFs regularly having a vertical monitor is a lifesaver.

On the arch wiki for SSDM I found this:

Changes to your display configuration made in a Plasma Wayland session (e.g. monitor layout, resolution, etc) will not persist to SDDM. To make them persist open Plasma's System Settings and navigate to Startup and Shutdown> Login Screen (SDDM) and click "Apply Plasma Settings...". You will need to have permission to perform this action.

You should give that a try

I've just been logging in upside down for a couple years. My monitor's vesa Mount is like 3 inches from the top for some reason so having it upside down is the only way I can get a reasonable ergonomic height

Which display manager are you using?

C'mon, balkanize already.

 

She knew the waist size of every person (particularly kids) in the area, and would drive around with boxes full of jeans. She would mend, patch, and fit them, and collect any unwanted, worn out, or outgrown denim

rat-salute-2 to you, jean lady, my hero.
