Yeah man, how dare she make up fanciful names for a child that she will never have after finding out they are likely infertile. This is definitely a normal and healthy thing to attack another human for.

On the other hand, the names are stupid and embarrassing. That’s sad though.

Giving your children poo poo rear end stupid names is literally child abuse and I'm glad it's illegal here. Also the backstory Owlofcreamcheese seems to know is not in that pic so :shrug:

I don't know what the benefit is of being super mad and conservative about other people's names to begin with but like, what good is mocking some poor woman for making up fun whimsical names for the child she just learned she's never going to have?

Ok now i feel bad about making fun of them, this is just sad. It’s a very different thing to consider knowing you’ll never have kids and not think through the practical implication of naming your kid Calamity (which IMO is a pretty good name). This isn’t the same thing as

honestly who cares either way? Like there are names I like or dislike but I honestly don't get the point of being ultra conservative about names. Like I get certain names are signifiers of certain unpopular groups, but I honestly don't get why people make such a thing about policing names. Like if you hate a certain group making them named john and emily isn't going to make that group go away.

anyone who reads Cinema Discusso for anything more than slackjawed trolling will see the shittiness in my posts
People who get worked up about "dumb" or "fake" names almost always do so over "trashy" (i.e. lower class white) names, "hippy" names, or "black" names, but only the last category gets called out for its shittiness. Arguments made about any one of those categories can be applied to the others, so before you go making fun of Coral Clove or Jayssyn or whatever, ask if you would do the same about someone named, say, Shaniqua.

Ultimately, these are just cultural and/or class differences, and it's pretty lovely to go after someone for how they name their children.

Ehhh

Every generation/cohort there are a bunch of names which you can easily associate with low socio economic status

It's lovely to make fun of someone for being low SES but it's also lovely to strap your kid with one of those names because they are a measurable drag on upward mobility

Of course, the people doing it probably don't know this and may not care even if they did (and believed it) but it's still lovely to put a completely unnecessary drag on your kid's success

It's not as simple as you want it to be

I don’t think the solution is to demand people give their kids more traditional white Christian names, you can like or not like a name, but don’t be lovely about people’s names under some stupid cover of pretending it’s not you that care but some amorphous other that simply is inescapable.

I like to check foxnews.com once a day just to see what the parallel world is paying attention to, and on days where the news is real bad for Trump it's fun to see what they're leading with instead. The standard bad Trump news day go-to is a header of scowling John Durham with Bob Barr behind him talking about how shits about to come out (I literally have no idea what he's supposed to be investigating) but today, with the Q2 report and the "delay the election" tweet, we're at full Soros
