in the comic strip “calvin and hobbes” the two main characters often play a game called Calvinball where there is a vague game structure but the rules are never constant and if u make up a rule on the spot it immediately becomes an official rule

the point of this post is there is no difference between Calvinball and yugioh: duel monsters

It’s good to know that we weren’t the only ones driven crazy by people who “axe” questions.

Okay, see, we talked about this linguisitic phenomenon in my grammar class. I don’t remember what it’s called, but it happens with other words, too - my professor used an example of “uncomfortable.” When you say it out loud, most likely, it sounds more like “un-comf-ter-ble,” thus mixing up the position of the r and the t, like how the k and the s are mixed in this speech pattern. However, not many people are out here acting high and mighty because someone said “uncomfterble” like they are with “ax,” and that has absolutely everything to do with academic biases - because “ax” is associated mostly with Black people (and occasionally lower-class whites), it’s viewed as “improper” speech, whereas most people, even middle & upper class white people who are thought to speak the most ~proper~ version of English, say “uncomfterble.”

And a quick Google search yields that even Chaucer used “axe” to mean “ask” within his writing. (Source) (Source)

tl;dr actually caring about whether someone says “ask” ~”correctly”~~ is rooted in racist & classist biases of language so, consider, not.

to the anon, just say trans guy/man. and ftm/mtf are outdated and rlly >> bc its like saying trans ppl were women/men before they "became" trans

yeah i dont think ive seen ftm/mtf for a long long time and i only just really thought about its implications. idk what kind of thing theyre writing like if they have to specify if that character is trans. but yeah if you dont have to say theyre trans then its not necessary, it would sound kind of weird in prose

Porn is one of the biggest and most harmful industries in the world, closely affiliated with human trafficking and drugs and alcohol abuse, causing rape between children, violence, beastiality and pedophilism and its fetishizing race, underage girls, trans people and lesbianism. Thought you should know.

I can’t believe people see this, think it’s not fact based and supported by years of research, and go on watching porn anyway.

If I'm describing a trans character, would I say "trans male", "trans man" or "ftm trans person"?

i think the first two are fine, im not sure abt the last one only bc it says ftm and then ‘person’? like, ftm tells us hes male already and makes the 'person’ part unnecessary i think. idk im kind of wondering if the term ftm itself is iffy bc it feels weird. maybe you could say dfab trans man/male instead
