Why reactionaries hate pride (the month, and the sin)
The article is meant to be based on a false statement. The purpose of the article is to criticise that statement.
I’m a wise person. I have a discord server dedicated to helping people with their identities, including neurodivergence and sexuality. But you will end up meeting some very queer people with identities you never knew existed, and you’ll have to be respectful.
The angels are scared of the Excrucians, and they should be.
How long would you say it takes to change your username and pfp on Matrix if you know exactly what you’re doing and have done it plenty of times before? 20 seconds? Pluralkit can do a proxy in 2 seconds. 20 seconds is not an acceptable delay to sending a chat message to most people, but 2 seconds is.
And what if two members of a system are in a conversation, possibly with a third person? Is it going to retroactively change the username and pfp on the old messages? Cause that would turn the conversation to complete nonsense. Imagine I’m having a discussion with some friends, two of whom are in a system, I step away to go to the toilet, and when I come back 5 minutes later I can’t tell who was talking in the last 5 minutes.

No, I definitely have friends who are allies and who care about accessibility for their friends.
That’s really strange, this seems like the sort of Lemmy instance where people would care about accessibility the minute they heard about the issue
Plurality is a lot more common than most people think. The existence of pluralkit exposed a LOT of people to the idea of plurality and got them realising they were already plural. Myself included.
It’s kind of like how a lot of lesbians didn’t understand their own identities until they heard Katy Perry sing “I kissed a girl”.
Furthermore, imagine you’re on a server with 500 active members, and there are 5 systems who use pluralkit. That server has probably had the “why are you a bot” “I’m using pluralkit” conversation dozens of times. All 500 people know how important pluralkit is. On Discord, there are dozens of allies for every one system.
I once knew a system with 400 members. That’s not common, but it is a thing. Systems of around 10 people are very common. Discord only allows up to 5 accounts. And only up to 1 account on mobile. And besides, having to maintain separate email accounts, even for a small system, is a burden. What about walk-ins and dormancies? What about new members who are still figuring themselves out and might want a change of name later? Pluralkit makes it all simple.
It’s diceless. All characters have access to all abilities, as long as they’re willing to pay the cost. Being good at something just means it has less or no cost. If you take on enough cost and don’t get it down the safe ways, your character permadies.
This is a reflection of the fact that the player characters are gods of world ending power who can do anything… but it’s hard. Maybe your character can blow up the moon if they so choose. But that’s a lot easier than remembering to eat breakfast every day. That’s right, the gods of the void have (a disability that’s an allegory for) autism and ADHD.
Player in My Glitch game used a monkey paw to wish for Half Life 3 to be released. Now the whole world knows he’s the guy who made Half Life 3 suck
You’re not supposed to find all the koroks. The golden shit is to tell you that you did the wrong thing.
