@kelseyhusky The year is 2044. The last remaining bastions of civilization are Queer after the great Budwieser War wiped out the remaining Cishets. Factions now vie for dwindling supplies of pre-collapse HRT and develop new, more dangerous gender drugs for an increasingly estrogen-starved population.
It's like Fallout, but the Ghouls are all in Nursing Homes.
Hot War Thunder Take
Anything past 4.7 is a dick waving contest and anything past 7.7 is Pay to win aimbots and patriotism.
Rank1: Herpderp, Loony Toons tanking
Rank 2: Actual Fun is had here
Rank 3: Competitive fun is had here
Rank 4: Early cold war dick waving garbage
Rank 5: Get thermal laser-guided fire and forget'd from a Helicopter someone paid Fifty real world dollars to buy in a tank you took 4000 hours to grind for.
@Galdrakinn Most folks are Totally faking it and have no idea what they're doing. They just follow the person in front of them.
Right now, Society is a Stampede, headed off a Cliff.
autism as a trend/fad
Seeing some neurotypicals talking like autistic people have recruited people who weren't autistic into some autism trend or fad, or even brainwashed them into a cult.
It's hogwash, obviously. Like it's some kind of 'Rapid Onset Autism' or something.
Trans people know this denial device well.
So do gay people.
It only looks sudden to someone who you were hiding it from, who doesn't know you've been struggling and grappling with shame about it for years, or even your whole life, without letting people know.
For trans and other LGBTQ+ people it's a closet, for autistic people it's masking.
a note on an abuse pattern (second person)
victim: *does anything that makes the abuser feel bad, like characterize their mistreatment accurately*
abuser: *does what they can to immediately make the victim feel bad so the victim stops*
...I'm not going to say this never happens outside abuse relationships, because I'm sure it's a toxic coping mechanism a lot of folks have acquired from one place or another ... but I /will/ say that if you're wondering if someone is willing to treat you with respect, consideration, and regard? Seeing them act this way is a pretty big sign that they aren't.
