This is not exorsexism and claiming it is reeks of some racism. Those gendered endings are not because the people who speak languages with gendered words actually believe in some sort of immutable gender of the words. The gendered ending serve a linguistic purpose.

Spanish, in particular, is one the white nonbinary and feminist communities have spoken over its speakers in a very racist way creating "latinx" when "latino" is already understood to be gender neutral by Spanish speakers because of the way the structure of the language works.

Anon, I urge you to learn the language you're in school to learn instead of approaching it with ethnocentrism. If you want to learn more about the purpose and function of the gendered endings in Spanish, I encourage that too. Here's an article to get you started. Your teacher, I'm sure, can also answer questions about this.

Hi I'm a nonbinary latine. It is indeed exorsexism to claim that the rules of a language are more important than the nonbinary people speaking it. Spanish only having masculine and feminine words isn't something nonbinary people should put up with, language can and should be changed to accommodate us

Spanish speaking conservatives do indeed believe that language, and especially gendered language, is immutable and that no gender neutral alternatives should ever be made. Nonbinary Spanish speakers came up with our own gendered endings, it's exorsexist for a teacher to fail someone because they're using those

Also Latino is only seen as gender neutral because masculine is used as the default

Someone asked me a while ago if I still had a photo of the worst sink I had ever seen while apartment hunting in Los Angeles. I assumed I deleted it so I didn't answer the ask and now it's gone, but as it turns out, yes, I do still have a photo of it.

"Tutorial" on how to draw an OC with dwarfism (well, some of it).

Boring tired disclaimer: Keep in mind that this is an introductory "drawing" "tutorial" and has some generalizations in it, so not every “X is Z” statement will be true for Actual People. Which happens to be true for everything in general.

You are heavily encouraged to do your own research because this does not contain everything you should know before making a character with any type of dwarfism.

Consider supporting me on ko-fi if you find this to be helpful.

If (when) you repost this on pinterest at least put a link to the original post somewhere..

Second image is Anthony Bourdain sitting outside at a cafe, looking very chill and unbothered.

Third image is the tag: #'it gets erased in so many stories' which ones. where are they.

I was making this post and started writing so much that I had to split it in two

That conversation tells us that the server isn't advertised as a public factions server like I had assumed. Not everyone who joins knows that it's a server. Maybe there's a specific pirated version of the game that makes you join the cursed void server?? Kinda like Spectrum 11?? The Serverview players did seem to be under the impression that it was public, and possibly so did the original factions group?

So, let's analyze this. These two met after TBE broke the chat. One of them thought they were in singleplayer, the other though they were in a private server. We saw two players in the Misalignment teaser, I double checked and the typing patterns seem to match. The player who uses proper caps and punctuation, and thought they were in singleplayer, is Taelon_Oe_Mer

The description of that video is "paths crossed lacked intent". It's the start of a poem; the next video, Restricted, says "games played in a dying trend". The player in Restricted does not use the same skin as the one in Misalignment. They're not the same person, but they're still connected somehow. Those two videos are also the ones where you can find photo fragments. Interesting stuff happening here

Don't talk to me about the Integrity bossfight btw I'm waiting for some youtuber to encounter him in a less anticlimactic way
