GhoulishVisage Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Yeah, I had a laugh at the thought of an cat being trigger-shamed, but I assume they're talking about institutions (eg universities) putting safe-spaces into place. When in doubt, blame the elves. I have always hated the word "censorship", I prefer seeing it as just removing content that isn't suitable or is considered offensive
Malcador Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Hopefully Java-shaming becomes a thing. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
Malcador Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) The addition of "More 'Shame'" on that cover amuses me for some reason.

Blarghagh Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 "non-person"? The addition of non-person is what makes that the most ridiculous. Non-person is an "inclusive" term for those who claim they were born as the wrong species or even item. Otherkin. Furries. Those who identify as a dragon, or a plant, or a ****ing hoover. Because that kind of person needs to be included, instead of sent to a goddamn institution.
Amentep Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) I thought that was strange too. Maybe it means businesses? Yeah, I had a laugh at the thought of an cat being trigger-shamed, but I assume they're talking about institutions (eg universities) putting safe-spaces into place. Ah, if that's what they mean I wouldn't have put it that way. EDIT: "non-person"? The addition of non-person is what makes that the most ridiculous.

Because that kind of person needs to be included, instead of sent to a goddamn institution. If this is what they meant, then surely they're showing their human-centric bias in their thoughts? If I am a plant, then I care not for your human emotional structures like shame, surely...? Edited October 7, 2015 by Amentep I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
Bartimaeus Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Are you suggesting that plants can't actually be people, even if they really, really wanted to? Interesting, most interesting, Amentep... Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Amentep Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Are you suggesting that plants can't actually be people, even if they really, really wanted to? Interesting, most interesting, Amentep... I'm saying that I don't assume people-plants and/or plant-people are automatically concerned or care about the same things that people-humans do. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that?

Bartimaeus Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 If plants want to be people, you should respect their lifestyle choices! (I don't think I've ever seen anybody use this icon before, but it's dancing like the banana, and seems appropriate enough.) Quote How I have existed fills me with horror.

Because that kind of person needs to be included, instead of sent to a goddamn institution. I love this picture so much. So I believe this picture is from a TLC UK thing (documentary? show?) that talked about Furries. In the article they talk about Furries being connected to Etherians. That's a term I haven't heard before, is it like a UK term for Otherkin or is it related to Meade Layne's alternate universe theory that UFOs are from another dimension (Etheria) or something else (like I'm mishearing "therianthropy" somehow)?

Barothmuk Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) She doesn't blame conspiracy. She blames shoddy journalism. Like the title says.Or you know, it could simply be based off people's interactions with them and the fact that their entire "movement" is some massive internet hissyfit over "ethics in game journalism".
