If the history of internet trannies is anything to go by, it's an unacceptable risk to have them around in any way shape or form if your goal is to get shit done with a minimum of drama.

The only trans people who haven't created some drama/backlash are literally the ones who simply lurk and don't draw attention to themselves. Normal or neutral bios, no commenting or pushing trans acceptance or queer ideology, etc. Those are like a lightning rod for drama.

If you fill your bio with queer pride shit, flags of every sort, pronouns, and a bunch of milqueoast neoliberal/ancom talking points you absolutely are going to get shit on, and people are going to think you are yet another unhinged troon

And I'm not the only one who thinks that people who are so mentally unstable they can't come to terms with their own physical nature and instead need expensive drugs, hormone replacement, and life-altering surgery from Dr Shecklestein are the kinds of people who are going to be problematic to have around... Especially as colleagues and partners.

@Hyolobrika @icedquinn @kerosene @lanodan @hj I recently had a conversation with graf on having an open source project without drama and he said the solution was to have a "no trannies" policy, but I don't know if they actually have it. I really don't care honestly.

@kerosene @icedquinn @lanodan @hj I know graf and gleason recently made their own Pleroma fork and apparently they made a "no trannies" policy when it comes to contributors.

What's your favourite genre that doesn't take place in the real world?

@graf @alex @ryo But what if I want to include these projects in my resume. They won't hire me if I'm an open transphobe.

@graf @alex @ryo It's impossible to have an open source project without drama.

@graf @alex @ryo Oh. I wasn't aware that he already made a back-end.

@vriska I don't care if the government gives you free shit in return. Taxation is still theft.

It's funny to me that Square considered naming Final Fantasy "Fighting Fantasy," because even though they ultimately didn't due to a tabletop game already having the name...

...TWO YEARS LATER...

...Data East did the deed with an arcade game, and they were absolutely fucking shameless about it.
