- Comment on There Is No Male Loneliness Crisis. What’s Actually Happening Is So Much Darker. 1 month ago:
I feel like part of the reason for socialization is to build a safety net in case something happens. People would often know their entire neighborhood and what people did in case they needed help and it required more social contact in order to gain access to that safety net.
Forgive me if I’m wrong, but I feel like being trans is harder than being cis in terms of having access to traditional means of support, so trans people have to build those means of support within their communities. It is more life or death to need friends that you can rely on if you’re trans because social systems outside of their communities will misunderstand you at best and be actively life threatening at worst.
A cis male doesn’t have a metaphorical gun to their head making them get friends.
- Comment on Valve aren't putting any exclusives on the Steam Machine because they see "the whole PC catalog as our 'launch exclusive'" 2 months ago:
You little have reporters thinking it is a console.
- Comment on Do you have any “headcanons” (so to speak) about the Star Trek TNG characters? 1 year ago:
Not characters, but places.
Earth is extremely competitive to gain any notoriety, which is really bad for a lot of people as notoriety and talent have become what is valuable in human society. People leave Earth because, while it is comfortable to live there, it is really hard to move up the social ladder. It is a lot easier to move away to get a better position, hence why humanity still colonizes other planets while Earth is paradise.
The Vulcans, Andorians, and Tellarire civilizations were going into decline when the Federation was formed. This is why Humanity became the dominant species of the Federation; the other species effectively gave up trying to be powers.
