It used to be. Politeness is a social construct and changes over time. I could name all sorts of horrible things that used to be polite. And even today it’s polite to casually talk about paying for a dead body to be cooked at a restaurant.

It used to mean a woman who has sex with lots of people, and it was derogatory. You’d call a woman a slut to shame her, because old people hated sex.
You’re not supposed to find all the koroks. The golden shit is to tell you that you did the wrong thing.

He pinned a comment on the video that the word is wrong and promised to edit the video to remove or blur it! I took My article down.
If discussion of politics is not to your liking
Actually, I am Extremely Political. Here are My blog posts on the subject of the subject of politics. One admittedly quite aggressive on the subject:

Also, I admit that I am constructing a very emotional narrative in the blog post, which is a transparent attempt at emotionally manipulating people into feeling empathy and patience for the big scary person living with NPD. I find that when I use language that permits people to think of these issues as a matter of cold, hard, factual accuracy, their ability to empathise with oppressed peoples who they’ve been told to hate is deeply impaired. Stories are the language of human memory. They’re easy to listen to, easy to remember, easy to think about, and easy to feel about. The human mind is optimised for processing stories more readily than facts. So I often try to present facts as stories.
In any case, thank you for the idea to ask Ian directly. I just did so, and I plan to heavily rethink My post if he agrees.
I think that aggression against people on the basis of disability is inherently reactionary, no matter the scale of the aggression, nor the disability in question. Furthermore, there’s also the fact that Ian thinks Gary was wrong to defend an indigenous species from genocide by a colonising power. That is an incredibly bad take to be coming from an outlet often touted as exemplary of leftist values. And the fact that it seems to be a factor that the liberator of the indigenous people is supposedly disabled, makes it very sus.
I use capitalised neopronouns because I’m transgender and nonbinary. I’m sure you didn’t realise that, or else you wouldn’t have complained about My pronouns. And yes, I am a person living with narcissistic personality disorder. You can psychoanalyse a potential connection between My gender and My disability if you wish, but please don’t feel the need to share your opinion of My psychiatric history, as I’ve heard, and thought about, it all before. Chicken, egg, it doesn’t matter to anyone else but Me, because it doesn’t hurt anyone except perhaps Me. That is if people are not understanding of My gender identity.

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
We’re playing Glitch! It’s about retired world-killing void gods who solve mysteries and go to therapy
There’s no such thing as objective reality. The belief in objective reality has caused untold harm through history. It’s used to delegitimise trans identities and indigenous spiritualities. It was used to form theories of race realism, phrenology, and eugenics. It was the justification used by Europeans for the Crusades, slavery, and colonisation. Every one of the worst actions of humanity has resulted from realism.
