I keep wanting to make a testimonials thread as my pinned but it would get too sappy so here is the only testimonial I need (made by Lividowly on discord, who is Pomni in this picture. I am the lizard)

I played unite at launch, had a blast. Mained zeraora. Haven't touched it in years. Didn't know anything about the mismanagement, shame it died so soon

Literally the first shot of this "historically accurate" Odyssey movie shows a boat that A) Has no steering oar. B) Is under full sail *and* full rowers while entering a cave, presumably to dock inside.

It's funny how the Defenders of Western Civilization really want Odysseus to be this heroic patriarchal figure when he is canonically kind of a dirtbag.

as someone who is moderate to high support needs i am pretty sick of people telling me i cant reclaim a slur that has been leveraged against me numerous times just because some late-diagnosed assholes wanna use it to hurt people. why do you want to just let that word hurt me 4ever. let me have this

The blatant fucking ableism of people who think the r slur is unreclaimable is pissing me off again. "It's an insult, it can't be reclaimed!!!" no it means intellectually & developmentally delayed person. Someone's existence being an insult to others doesn't make a slur unreclaimable

I'm just so so so tired of the people who would sit by and watch, if not actively participate, in the discrimination against intellectually and developmentally disabled people try to claim what words we can use for ourselves and what experiences we had

These people certainly faced ableism. And, like everyone regardless of mental status, was probably called the r slur multiple times because people threw it around so casually. But they're right. They probably can't reclaim the r slur. Because they were never the retard. Not like us

The same teacher who announced that I was autistic to the entire class and said I don't deserve to be happy because I was struggling with my art project

It's so much fucking more than little things like that too. Job discrimination. Trying to access resources for disabled people (finally got it a year ago and thank fucking god. I now have an actual job of my own. I'm very proud of myself)

What did I do? Idk, was being a bit rowdy maybe? They left me there so other kids could come up to me and point and laugh. I experienced a LOT of physical abuse from kids and adults when elementary school aged

Fortunately that mostly lessoned for the most part as I aged. But I was still told to kill myself. I still failed a class because the teacher couldn't stand that I had struggles and wouldn't let me work on assignments and give me an automatic zero

That I need to use tone tags at the end of every sentence and follow their new set of social rules or else people will assume I'm being aggressive, even with simple questions like "how are you doing?"

It's infuriating. It's enraging. It really does suck to grow up feeling alone and awkward and miss social cues. But that is not the same experience the people who just can't mask it had. I was duct taped to a wall by a teacher and left there

I fundamentally did not understand kindness. I did not know what it was like to be treated as a person. I wasn't a bully or anything but I was fucking off. I was always off. And yeah apparently mean and aggressive because I thought that's how interactions were

Even when I was trying to be friendly, even now, my tone is off. Sometimes I speak too flatly. Common autism symptoms btw. And yet, even now, when around other autistic people online they repeat the same ableist bullshit. That I talk wrong and no one will like me because of it and it's my fault

If I reached out to my "friends" from school they'd probably say they're autistic. The same people who openly hated me for my autism because my autism wasn't acceptable enough for them. I didn't just like Homestuck a lot, no, I was an actual retard. And us retards are BAD

I spent so much of my life being called a mean, awful person much to my confusion and dismay. I didn't get it. I wasn't doing anything not being done to me. I couldn't intuitively pick up on social skills. I was autistic. I emulated the awful way I had lived, thinking it was normal and mostly fine

No slurs could be reclaimed if that were the case. They are ALL insults. And the people spouting this shit are always the ones who had a mostly fine childhood except they felt a bit alone because they're autistic and awkward. The people who looked down at anyone TOO disabled

The people who would tell me I was worthless and a burden and a freak because I was clockably mentally challenged. Because I didn't have ~quirky autism~, I had "autism that made people physically attack you while everyone else just watched without caring"

On a scale of one to ten how cringe is it for me to be imagining an among us amv of mastermind from helluva boss with red as stolas, purple as blitzo, and pink as satan

Haven’t seen anyone point out that, for the Ghost Rider announcement, Ryan Gosling was dressed like James Dean in Rebel Without A Cause (a movie where James Dean does not ride a motorcycle), which also means Gosling was dressed as Philip J. Fry.

if you ever happen to see someone post a joke you don't understand or discuss a subject you aren't familiar with, you are well within your right to complain, and perhaps even scold them if necessary. you are their customer and you have rights

I want to look at joining some discords to talk in again but the last one I joined someone immediately replied to me "*rapes you cutely*" and that's just kind of a bad energy that's standard for public discord servers
