Nothing I can do about it. But you just need to be aware of this when trying to talk to one. Otherwise any argument you make will be an automatic miss. :blobshrug:

@IRLStreamer @Nonetrix @TheMadPirate
Did I state ANYWHERE that I love trannies? I was just educating people on why they'll inevitably fail at arguing with a terf about the topic.

@TheMadPirate @Nonetrix
I love how you people miss the point when talking to terfs... They're biological fundamentalists. For them gender = sex and that's it. They don't make the same distinction between the two that you probably do.

@Madcucks @Nonetrix
Yeah, accusing an actual terf of being transphobic is also nonsensical.
It's like going to Hitler and telling him he's bigoted against Jews. He'll stare at you like a madman and say "yes, of course I am".
The same goes for a terf. They don't have separate definitions for gender and sex. So accusing a terf that they believe only females are women and only males are men, is useless.

@Nonetrix
>pretty retarded thing to say
On your part? Maybe. You didn't even ask her for a source for the claim. For all I know, she's right about the olfactory system.

Here's the thing when talking to a terf, you need to understand that they don't make the gender/sex distinction, at all. When she says the olfactory system determines whether you're a woman or not, for you that translates to determining whether you're a female or not.

If you're gonna try to argue with her that biology doesn't determines someone's gender, you've failed from the very beginning, when her definition of gender is identical with sex.

But in the end, you didn't try to argue with her at all. All you did was jump to insulting her. You don't get to complain after what you did that the interaction was not productive.

@Nonetrix
>trying to talk
You literally just insulted her. Where exactly is the "trying to talk" part?

I found an article the other day, from back in 2020, saying they canceled April Fools because of the pandemic.

Ladies are cute.

That's how the universe works.

Having to deal with Jojo is like a coming of age ritual for the fediverse. :meru_shrug:

@emilis @Xalef
He annoyed me too for a good amount of time. After I started ignoring him, I barely see him now.

@emilis @Xalef
I keep hearing about him posting weird stuff from time to time, but since I don't follow, I never see it first hand. It was once even suspected by posted a picture of his butt (which was problematic since he's underage). Turns out it wasn't him picture, but he earned himself a ban from that stunt.

Since homeschooling is in high demand right now, here's some good material to help teach your kid the alphabet.

Played a bit of the classic Final Fantasy games. I generally went for the GBA versions, cause they were generally a bit better looking that the originals, and had improved gameplay, but also cause they were considered easier. But yeah... even those aren't really easy. You still need to grind like crazy.

There are generally 2 issues that have caused the change in difficulty from what I understand. (I'll ignore arcade games, cause those had inflated difficulty just to eat up your coins)
1) early NES era, and immediately after, were very hard, because there was only so much devs could include on the cartridge, so this functioned as a way to increase play time. As distributing more content became easier, this artificial increase of difficulty was no longer needed.
2) As early gamer generations grew up, they still remained an important part of the market share, especially since they started having more disposable income. But the downside of growing up, is that you have less free time. So devs further reduced game difficulty, so you wouldn't need to grind 20 hours for a 40 hours game. If they didn't do this, they'd risk losing you as a customer.
