I like how your pronouns are "equipped". Got you a pocket full of pronouns. DOn't you drop them, or nobody will be allowed to talk about you!

[-] EmptySlime@lemmy.blahaj.zone 68 points 1 month ago

I've gotten tricked out of so many things by those blasted Fae. My gender, my sexual attraction, my attention, and precisely 1 (one) of my pronouns.

Now I go by He/They because I can never be Him.

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 33 points 1 month ago

Sheesh. Don't let em take the others or you'll have to go by Was/Were

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

It's me. I'm the fae. At least I think I must be, since I use any pronouns.

[-] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 13 points 1 month ago

Can you guys put out a schedule for when you're doing pick-up?

I have this entire chunk of life I need to get rid of, but every damn time I get the alert, the circles already went inert and all they hauled off was the damned honeyed milk and bloodied bread.

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

Dracula Flow disqualified.

[-] EmptySlime@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 month ago

It's true. He is in fact way more Him than I was ever capable of being.

I am simply built differently... alternatively. Some might even go so far as to say incorrectly. I know I would.

If you kill a boss, you can loot Legendary and Artifact pronouns

You get xe/xim for confirming your email address

*unequips pronouns* simply do not refer to me

grug no unlock pronoun yet, make grug sad, grug want pronoun and complex grammar let grug express thought more good

[-] DumbAceDragon@sh.itjust.works 32 points 1 month ago

This implies the existence of extra pronouns that can be unlocked or purchased from the in-game store.

[-] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 10 points 1 month ago

TBF, that's sort of my experience of pronouns due to finding queer community at university.

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

Like an SCP, you can only be addressed in the second-person.

[-] joyjoy@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

Hey... you. I totally didn't forget your name.

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Name eating thingy, SCP-5300... ish. Reclassified a few times as prior efforts were misplaced. You'd swear they were right here. One of them had a good name, something-phage. Borderline antimemetic. Passed back and forth between departments, and never really lost, but not exactly pinned-down to the foundation's typical standards. Rated safe - just kind of a pain in the ass. Mostly harmless.

🎶I got a pocket, got a pocketful of pronouns🎶

I've got a, I've got a, pocketfulofpronouns

The enemy used expelliarmus.

Your pronouns are now /.

Likely yes, and I recommend you to let HP die and instead look for some better media.

[-] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 24 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yeah I've been avoiding it since The Change became apparent, but I feel like posting screenshots kind of keeps it alive. Like people think they're got one over on the bigot billionaire

[-] Nikki@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

or pirate it

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I cannot recommend the fan fiction book Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality by Eliezer Yudkoesky highly enough. If you’re looking for a HP fix but struggle with ‘death of the author’ issues. There’s even a free audiobook podcast!

MoR was the most excruciatingly self-congratulatory thing I have ever had the misfortune to read. I understand that some people like it, and more power to them, I guess, but I found it to be painfully bad.

[-] growsomethinggood@reddthat.com 7 points 1 month ago

I overall enjoyed reading it but you're absolutely correct that it was very self-indulgent and smug for waaaaay too much of it.

I can recommend Dimension 20's Misfits and Magic (season 2 just got announced yesterday!) as a much better critique that still brings the joy that people felt with the source material to the table. The cast all says fuck terfs too!

[-] TheRtRevKaiser@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

I love the people that are involved with Dimension 20, but I haven't really been able to get into any AP shows in a while. I think I'm just busier than I used to be. I listened to most of Fantasy High S1 and enjoyed a lot of it, but just couldn't really get into the rest of it. I like seeing clips of the different seasons, I'd love it if they could release some kind of edited or abridged version of each of the seasons or something.

[-] zzx@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Obligatory: Eliezer Yud is a loser hack grifter.

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Wait, fuck, really?

[-] tormeh@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 1 month ago

In theory that depends on the legal details. In practice it's safe to assume she does.

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

The best thing would be that she doesn’t get any money. The second best is that her money depends on being trans-friendly.

[-] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 75 points 1 month ago

She’s screaming all the way to the bank, knowing that not particularly based people who consider themselves LGBT allies have been lulled into helping to fund her anti-trans crusade.

[-] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 26 points 1 month ago

Fuck, not even an ally. I know one trans person who still supports Harry Potter franchise shit. Some people are myopic as hell.

[-] Hackworth@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

As a person with myopia, I find this comment tone deaf.

[-] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 month ago

As someone deaf myself, wtf is language even

[-] mathemachristian@lemm.ee 59 points 1 month ago

recruit your first chaser

?🤨

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

Diversity of problematic characters: Nonbinary person with they/them pronouns likes "the feminine penis" and "the masculine vulva" way too much.

[-] key@lemmy.keychat.org 35 points 1 month ago

If terf queen's home is a "mouldy shack" then my house must be a cardboard box by the river (not even a van).

[-] MrQuallzin@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago

It's a reference to the mold growing in her house

Would Could Mould

[-] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Slightly off topic, I coined a new term Potterlike which describes a game that features enough wizarding school hallmarks, including character and plot expies from Harry Potter to adequately scratch those itches without supporting a neonazi billionaire that is in turn supporting a hate-driven purge movement.

I have recently been playing Spells & Secrets a German potterlike rogue-lite that has good play, if daft localization. There are some decent potterlikes out there.

To be fair, I never got Quiddich, other than it's supposed to be a team sport with magic, and Rowling took the design of a team sport as seriously as she did video games, and the affect games have on house point values (in that they heavily outweigh rewards from good behavior, penalties from bad behavior and bonuses for keeping the end of the world and rise of He Who Shall Not Be Named) reflects how school athletics is overprioritized in IRL academics, often over STEM or basic educafion.

And Griffindor are the jocks.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

"magic? what the fuck is this? i thought this was a game about clayforming!"
