I saw a thread on the history of "singular they" in English, & how it's standard back to Chaucer. One remarked that while "singular they" is nothing new, but that's for unspecified, unidentified, & hypothetical individuals, & that folks *requesting* to be called by neutral #pronouns is new. Sounds like a challenge!
Anyone have sources about folk *asking* to be called by neutral pronouns before 1990?
*Scream of emotional rage like you hear in many Mars Volta songs.*
@chr@cybre.space Wolfram & Hart was a pretty nice company name, all told.
garden pests; weird hangups
@adeptomega How are they supposed to know? They just arrive and poof! Food!

Alt right people with influence and loud voices complaining about being silenced

Alt right. One of them is Milo, who has written and said really awful things

This but unironically. We really don't need to hear what they have to say.
Earthbound by Machinae Supremacy Lyrics [2]
But in my mind's eye, a vision of ourselves
As the blind leads the fallen
Sometimes I curse that I was born a cripple
To the sky I'm under, forged to imprison me
Somewhere in time I'll wreck these chains around me
Even those inside me, blasting my way free
But in my mind's eye, a vision of ourselves
As we leave this time and place behind
Earthbound by Machinae Supremacy Lyrics [1]
Sometimes I curse that I was born a cripple
To the sky I'm under, bound by my two feet
I walk the road paved by our evolution
Grinding my illusions, this earth is not for me
But in my mind's eye, a vision of ourselves
In our cradle of dust and stone
I nurse a single dream, a memory
One I can't remember, and I am not alone
I wake from my suspended animation
Deprived of my creation just like a drone
@thefishcrow I have no one to blame but me.
@thefishcrow @starkatt I *had* to give it a try tonight and now I totally see what you mean.
@starkatt The sequel to The Arrival. two minutes in and I was like "Nope"
@Leucrotta Bah! I actually really liked it. But I agree with David Lynch that he needed a lot more time for that kind of story.
The TV series had a lot more time, but a low budget, and lots of weird overacting that made it impossible to enjoy without wincing.
@Leucrotta I take it you're watching the TV series.
@thefishcrow @starkatt I didn't even know this existed until now! It was bad? Ugh.
