2019-06-04 at 10:09 PM UTC in Blacks aren't human
Originally posted by Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country So the people who do the actual work get the table scraps, but the "integral to the team" affirmative action hire (yes, even NASA in the 60s had affirmative action, they even had a black astronaut in the pipeline who got shitcanned by Chuck Yeager (secret Nazi imo) due to being so far behind "The Right Stuff" having West Virginians).
She did the actual work too though. She did a fuck ton of calculations that were required to make the mission happen. That is the definition of "doing the actual work". Some overhyped white dudes acting as next generation FTC guys don't deserve any more credit than she does. -

Originally posted by Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country By that logic supermarket cashiers should be entitled to a 10% cut.
I don't see how that follows at all. She was an integral part of the team, and she deserves credit for that. Also more akin to someone who works in the back office than a cashier (all those white guys in mission control are your cashiers), but whatever. -

I get what you're saying and you're right, but I mean it's not like there was no white person in America who could have done what she did. Doesn't diminish what Katherine Johnson did at all, but white people could have hypothetically made it off the ground without her. She wasn't irreplaceable, she was just damn good at her job. -

True patricians balk at the idea of spanking their pepperoni to anything other than pictures and the written word. Fap to hentai manga/doujins, not videos. You fucking barbarian. -

Awesome show. What about that don't you understand though? Like... gravity isn't required for experiencing acceleration. Then again, now that you mention it, I don't understand the physics of precisely why acceleration creates G-forces. 🤔
Were you under the impression that acceleration multiplied how much you felt the natural gravity of Earth? Because you can totally experience acceleration G-forces in any direction including sideways or up even here on Earth.

Originally posted by gadzooks Ok yeah it sounds like we're in the exact same boat.
With time, it becomes less and less impactful. At least, it gradually has for me.
But if you are feeling just constantly bombarded by the unrelenting pundits and critics, it may actually indicate a problem truly situated with others.
While I don't mind a bit of dissenting opinion, I know that if I sat in at, like, a KKK rally… Or somehow managed to get my cishet white male ass into one of those neo-snake person safe spaces, I know I'd start to lose it eventually.
If you find a lot of this kind of criticism comes from people on NiS in particular, the only thing I can recommend is just cutting down on NiS time. And the same could be applied to just about anything (replace NiS with X, or X with Y, etc).
Honestly it's totally just the environments online I find myself in. Not so much NiS though, weirdly enough. I mean I certainly get a lot of shit here sometimes, but like... shit, even some of the folks who legitimately think trannies are fucking weird and degenerate and a plague on society manage to be friendly with me for the most part. It's mostly Facebook groups (those safe spaces you mentioned) and /pol/ which serve to remind me of how much real hate and anger people have towards those who show open mindedness toward the "wrong ideas". Easy enough to avoid as you said, but the general phenomenon is what I take issue with I guess. Centrists are truly the most persecuted against minority. -

Originally posted by Sophie Thank you for sharing your personal mentality and attitude towards this.
I appreciate that, 'though I gotta say I mostly typed it for my own benefit after I got rolling. It helps me figure out why I am this way a little bit more each time I post about it. Or something.
Originally posted by Sophie My point was really more to say that a real man, a good man takes care of the ones he loves. It doesn't matter if the significant other is trans or not, that's really not what i'm going after. I just feel that if he really loves you he should want to take care of you. And i don't mean like treating you as if you're a princess, but trying to build towards something greater for the both of you.
I get that, I just didn't really know how to address it. Our relationship is weird. Also I'd feel bad if he was going out and doing stuff he didn't enjoy just for my sake, you know? Like I understand that urge to want to make life good for you and your loved ones, but like... at what cost? I'd prefer we both had fairly stagnant and relatively stable lives to an alternative where scron is out there suffering through shit he doesn't really want to do to accomplish some kind of loftier goal even if it was for our benefit in the long run. More money, more resources would be nice and it'd definitely be a requirement if we were ever to have a family of our own, but it's not the kinda thing I'd want him to feel pressured into doing for any reason? I guess? I dunno. -

Originally posted by gadzooks I know that feel… Sort of.
I often jokingly refer to myself as a "radical centrist". When it comes to the things that most people get all heated up over (all things politics, basically), I generally either approach it with levity and humor, or from a "sure let's debate this, i'll take whatever side is less represented here" perspective, or even by just straight up staying out of it altogether.
Luckily, most people don't make a huge case out of it for me. I have been called things like SJW, cuck, or Zionist shill, by folks on the right side of the spectrum, and have been called a few things by folks on the left side of the spectrum (not as much around here, though, because NiS seems to have a vocal majority on the right side of the spectrum).
But a certain kind of freedom comes from being completely unrestricted by political stance.
You're allowed to not be zealously opiniated about every single issue. In fact, I'd go so far as to argue that it can be considered a virtue.
I'm basically with you 100% on this, down to the jokingly referring to myself as a radical centrist chad. But this viewpoint is invariably met with "PICK A SIDE YOU FENCE SITTING CUCK YOU'RE A PUSSY FOR NOT HAVING STRONGLY HELD CONVICTIONS ABOUT THINGS AND YOU'RE JUST AS EVIL AS [OPPOSITE PERSPECTIVE OF SPEAKER]". If you don't give enough of a shit to hate people, people will hate you for it. It's ridiculous! -

Originally posted by Sophie If Scron wants to be your boyfriend it is only right and proper that he takes care of you. It's different because you're not just two guys, you are transitioning, which presumably you are doing because you feel like a girl. Now if we take that line of reasoning to it's logical conclusion, Scron really should be taking better care of you.
I'm not sure how this relates, but sure. I don't know what feeling like a guy or girl feels like though. That's kind of a lie, but also not really. I mean shit what does feeling like a man or a woman feel like? I just feel like my regular ass self. Best I can figure it's really just a measure of how adequate/inadequate you feel when measuring yourself against an external set of of prescribed ideals for each gender. You don't feel like a man when you fail to live up to the expectations of what a man is. You don't feel like a woman when you fail to live up to the expectations of what a woman is. Beyond that, does "being a boy/girl" even have a feeling? 🤔
And yet, even as I question this, I always go back to that dream I had as a kid where I was a girl and I felt happy. Was that what it was like to "feel like a girl"? I don't think the girl aspect had anything special to it, I don't think I felt any different aside from being elated with that existence. I guess the thing that elated me was that "I felt like a girl", but really it's even less tangible than a feeling. I just was that, and it was right. No feeling to it. Haha. -
2019-06-04 at 8:46 AM UTC in The biggest issue in my life is people taking issue with the fact that I'm not taking issue with enough things.People like to say that not doing anything to stop problematic behavior is just as bad as being problematic, but that's bullshit. Apathetic people never hurt anyone. The only people who cause harm are the people who actively care about shit. Racism? If nobody gave a shit about race, the problem would evaporate instantly: caring about race, and caring that people care about race are the mentalities creating an issue. Don't rope my apathetic ass into your fucked up narrative and pretend I'm evil for not doing anything evil (or good). All the world's ills are problems created by - and for - people who give a shit.
Now... I don't give a shit if you stop giving a shit or not... but be honest with yourself: I'm not the problem. Just let me not a give a shit about your problems in peace. Thank you. -

Originally posted by Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country No thanks, I find the idea of treating both those people who are kind to me and those people who are bad to me equally and the same, repulsive.
In my moral framework, I am the only judge, and all other parties and their interactions with each other are given the same weight. As a judge though, I am untouchable. I will have the bailiff tackle you if you're bad to me; personally. -

Literally the only shit I dial 911 for is when I'm worried someone's about to yeet themselves. Equal application of justice in the form of apathy is still equal application of justice. Not being a hypocrite is a virtue. Try it sometime. -
