This is cool and I love CSO but alt text should be descriptive of the image. Adding this in case folks need it:

A collage showing four differently painted battlemech miniatures. A stylized battlemech head logo rests in the center of the image and text beneath reads, "CAMO SPECS ONLINE."

Waiting. ⌚

it doesn't matter if some people are fine with gendered language like "dude" if you are using it on people without asking them first.

I'm just going to give up and call the week a wash.

No stream today. We're going to try this again on Tuesday. 😮‍💨

Oh... Oh no...

Ravenous (1999) answers with question with an eternally resounding, "OBVIOUSLY YES!"

No Alien: Isolation stream today y'all.

I should be back on rhythm by the weekend.

Morning stuff has spilled over a bit.

I have to cancel stream for today. Next stream is Alien: Isolation on Thursday! o7

That was a damned fine shot shipmate. o7

Hey y'all!

Quick update on the stream happening tomorrow. I'm pushing the start time back an hour from 11 PST to noon. Something came up in the morning and I'll need the extra time to deal with it before streaming.

You should also try searching in the context of the deaf and dumb communities themselves. Hearing disabilities and lack of ability to speak often show up together so those communities appear together pretty often too.

Instead of a direct critique of a person's actions 'dumb' leans on an ableist shorthand that implies someone who is less able than the speaker should have their opinion dismissed because of some aspect of who they are without directly referencing what the content of that opinion actually was.
2/2

At the very least the word 'dumb' is ableist. Dumb was a psychiatric term historically used to refer to someone who was disabled and couldn't speak and became a way to dismiss people for being less able than a given speaker.

It derisively refers to a disparity in ability which is ableist. 1/2

YouTube video by Micro Zoe Why I Dislike Queer Theory

Zoe Baker coming in hot with this take.

Much of the serious writing on queer theory and trans existence in an academic context is obfuscated and unnecessarily hard to parse. Our presence needs to be made clear and we need to be both assertive and persuasive as we fight back.

G'night all. May you have fair winds and following seas. o7

Yeahhh that sounds about right for March. 😮‍💨

Texas, I'm willing to bet.

YouTube video by DisneyMusicVEVO Forming Up/Unto Stone We Are (From "Andor: Vol. 3 (Episodes 9-12)"/Audio Only)

I rewatched Andor this weekend. I still refuse to jump on the hype train for the next season. However.

Those last three episodes go SO GODDAMN HARD.

Solving international relations by means of batchall.

Thanks to the donations given and help from others my friend knows, our goal has been reached. Thank you all for helping as well you could.

I do have a lot more positive news to come in the weeks ahead so please look forward to them!

It's a classic for a reason I suppose.

A person in a badly-composited pirate hat sitting on the ground and looking sad. Questionably edited text along the bottom half of the image reads, "Be it really possible fer a landlubbin' lass and a scurvy sea dog to be swoonin' fer eachother?"
