I still use a CRT TV on a regular basis. Ive also always wanted to try doing a true mid 90s DOS gaming build 😂 obsolete tech has always fascinated me.

As I stated before, the amount of unreported crime is not relevant to the question of “is this situation plausible”. I mentioned it in the beginning because the statistic you provided is essentially irrelevant to the topic and inaccurate anyway. I provided my justification for this in my previous comment.

1. TERFs are more likely to accuse someone of being trans than any other population of people. Let me clarify that in specific words. It is orders of magnitude more likely a TERF would accuse someone of being trans than any other demographic of person.

2. Women have been harassed and assaulted because they were believed to be trans in just the past couple months. Here’s two examples for you. You might want to like actually have a clue what youre talking about before you start spouting off whatever. .

3. The question of harassment is pertinent because nearly every kind of homophobic or transphobic assault is precipitated by harassment. Women have been assaulted over these accusations. It is not out of the realm of plausability that a woman would be assaulted on account of being accused of being transgender.

Your comparison about a mech suit is wild. You do not possess the technology to have such a thing. TERFs exist and accuse people of being trans every single day. TERFs are extremists and have violent views towards trans people. The people they generally accuse of being trans are women. There are gender non-conforming TERFs.

It is not unthinkable that a TERF could accuse another TERF of being trans, that much has absolutely happened before. It is also not unthinkable that a TERF would assault someone they thought was trans who was using the women’s bathroom.

Ergo, not at all implausible. Again, rare, yes. Implausible, no.

It depends on what they define violent crimes as. I am genuinely 100% certain that on a daily basis yes there are cases of women being accused of being trans. Look at the news recently, the incidence rate of this happening is rising.

And yes some of those instances would escalate to harassment / assault. I couldn’t give you hard statistics as its very specific and there is a lack of data on it. Its biased by the fact that some women who are accused may not be willing to admit that.

Regardless, yes I definitely believe it is plausible and I also believe that the statistics youre citing almost certainly do not account for these specific circumstances. Like i do not believe that information is of use to this discussion as harassment is rarely reported and assault isn’t always reported either. I don’t have hard numbers on that.

I don’t necessarily dispute that it would be a pretty rare or incredible occurrence, but in terms of plausability, TERFs are highly likely to accuse someone of being trans (much more likely than the average person), and the inevitability that one would accuse another one of being trans seems well within the realm of possibility to me.

Yeah, I’m saying that the 3000 number is not a reasonable assumption for the actual number of instances of harassment / assault per day in the US. The majority of instances of go unreported. Especially when it involves someone accusing a woman of being trans, unless its an outright police get involved situation its probably not going to be reported.

It wasn’t how common it is, it’s how plausible it is. And yes I believe it is plausible.

This is all assuming that cisgender women being mistaken for transgender women and harassed / assaulted in the bathroom results in a report or a news story each time.

There are 8 billion people alive. At least a billion live in places where trans rights are under an active coordinated attack by fascists. Once a day is sure to be a dramatic underestimation.

Its also quite plausible that 2 fascist women would accuse each other of being trans. There is a paradoxically high proportion of gender non-conforming women in fascist communities in some places. All it really takes to be accused of being trans is being gender non-conforming. Therefore, absolutely a common event, and it is plausible that fascist women could be accused by other fascist women. They’re not the most mature people, having observed their attitudes and behaviors, simply being accused of being trans is probably enough for them to accuse their accuser of being trans. They’re generally very petulant and aggressive.

Finding a place to legally watch a specific TV show has become very frustrating. Been through this with several shows. I no longer use any streaming services but it can be nearly impossible to find some shows, particularly ones that were released pre-streaming era.

Thank you for sharing these apps! Have been looking for this exact kind of thing ever since I abandoned Google maps. I contributed to Google maps for years. It’ll be nice to contribute to something I believe in instead.

I think there’s limitations to that. I also think ideally we should cut Google out our work chain anyways, and depending on data from there makes that functionally impossible. Stuff on maps changes, if we’re scraping from Google maps now we’re just gonna have to continue doing that. Instead we should normalize our own community work chains to build our own dataset.

I genuinely cannot tell if you are trolling. I am a French speaker. I work in it every single day.

Vous is NOT A THIRD PERSON PRONOUN. IT IS A SECOND PERSON PRONOUN. IT MEANS “You all”. THAT IS NOT THE KIND OF PRONOUNS TRANS PEOPLE HAVE PREFERENCES ABOUT.

MY PARTNER IS NONBINARY AND USES THEY/THEM PRONOUNS IN ENGLISH. THERE IS NO EQUIVALENT TO THAT IN FRENCH.

The only pronoun suggested by anyone as a gender neutral one in French is “iel”. It is not in common use at all and lacks any kind of widespread adoption.

How are you so entitled that you can continue to be this blatantly wrong about something you clearly do not understand? It’s genuinely incredible.

No you’d say “They are tall.” Because that’s how we conjugate that in English. They has always been used as both a singular and a plural because we don’t always know the gender of who were talking about. In French il/ils is the default when you don’t know a 3rd person’s gender. Il/ils is masculine.

It isn’t. I’m a French speaker, I’m telling you it isn’t. Vous is second person singular or plural. They is third person singular or plural. They is NEVER second person. Vous is NEVER third person. This is how the language is used around the world today.

Did… did the tables not help? They can be used as either singular or plural but it’s always third person.

If I was speaking directly to you, and you used they/them pronouns. I wouldn’t convert the sentence “You are tall” to “They are tall”. Those 2 sentences mean entirely different things. That’s what the “person” part of a pronoun is. It’s who you’re referring to. 1st person is the person speaking, 2nd person is the person being spoken to, and 3rd person is someone about whom you are speaking.

1st - “I am tall.”

2nd - “You are tall.”

3rd - “He/She/They is/are tall.”

1st - “Je suis grand.”

2nd - “Tu/Vous es grand.”

3rd - “Il/Elle est grand(e).”

Does this help? Tu is already not gendered. Vous isn’t gendered either. It’s not the same as “they” at all. It means an entirely different thing.

I am bilingual and have been speaking French every day since I was 4. I work every day entirely in French. I am correcting you on a fundamental aspect of the French language.

Vous is equivalent to saying “you all” in English. It can also be used as a 2nd person singular pronoun, equivalent to “you” in English. You’ll note that “you” isn’t gendered.

“They” is a 3rd person pronoun. It’s used when referring indirectly to someone else. “He” and “she” are also 3rd person pronouns. “You” is the 2nd person singular pronoun in English. We don’t have a dedicated 2nd person singular pronoun (not since like the 17th century), so when referring to 2nd person to a group of people, we say “you all” or “you guys” etc.

Pronouns in French go like this:

In English the equivalents are:

People’s preferred pronouns in both English and French are third-person ones (at least when referring to these kinds of pronouns, there’s others like Sir/Ma’am). French does not have a gender neutral third person pronoun by default.

Vous is the 2nd person plural pronoun. Only for when you’re speaking directly to someone, which isn’t gendered anyway (2nd person singular pronoun is Tu).

French doesn’t have a gender neutral 3rd person pronoun. It’s il or elle. Which is unfortunate. There have been attempts to create a gender neutral 3rd person pronoun but none have really taken off. Most French non-binary people who prefer gender neutral pronouns in English will use the pronoun in French that most closely align with their presentation. Il for mascs, elle for femmes. I’m hopeful for this to change honestly.

Yeah. It’s hard to balance the need to know if i need to flee immediately with the massive amount of psychological damage from being aware of how dire the situation is. Like if I’m not well informed it could mean becoming stuck in a situation that is rapidly deteriorating. However if I am well informed then I just deal with constant panic attacks, worsening depressing, and spiraling mental health. I’m compromising by paying attention for a couple hours every few days and deliberately avoiding all news in the interim.

According to this statista article at least 80% of their population has mobile phones with internet access as of 2023. So I’m not sure exactly what you’re talking about here.

It’s not really that distinct, no. Not unless you’re transmed and believe pre and post op trans people need to divided from each other.

Youre free to use whatever terms you’d like to use for yourself, but transsexual was how people referred to all transgender people until the term transgender took off in the late 90s.

I mean. Shading, shadows, lighting. How she looks I’m comparison to the previous game depends on like, more than just her base model.

It’s also kinda weird to say you want her to look the same but also older. People’s appearance changes as they age.

You know what’s objectively millions of times worse? Depriving dying children of Healthcare. Also, the police go around shooting people every single day. Those people are just usually working class. People only give a shit now cause this guy was a ceo, a member of the ruling class.
