I just hit a point where I think it should be self-evident that those who have the means have an obligation to care for those who have had life deal them a lovely hand. I just hit the big 50 this year, and I just ain't got time for this bullshit anymore. Friendships have been ended.

Vib Rib posted:Like, what, there's a gaydar-powered door in the mad scientist's evil lair that won't open for straight people? Only a black person can properly camouflage to sneak their way into the military complex? What the gently caress level of "important to the plot" would mandate some minority character aspect? It's literally just demanding that there has to be a "reason" that say, a character is gay. Straight people don't need a reason to be straight, but if you have a gay character you better answer "well, WHY?" to my satisfaction! Not to mention that when such character aspects are absolutely central to the plot, like say, a story about Stonewall or growing up black in a racist neighborhood or facing betrayal from your friends and family when they find out you're gay, these same people will just hate on it anyway for being pandering or SJW garbage or what the gently caress ever the hot phrase of the day is. They can't comprehend that people would want to be gay/foreign/anything they can't relate to, so any inclusiveness is just pandering. Aspects of identity that 'open doors' is one of the main metaphors for understanding the challenges of minorities, and so much of scifi and fantasy media has used that concept literally, I'm honestly surprised I haven't heard about something with a 'gays only' door yet. Games especially push the 'visit new worlds and discover their cultures and characters' angle, but for some reason those exotic worlds should be full of straight white people who speak english.

quote:When my wife and I got married we agreed that we would have 2 kids unless both were girls, then we'd have a 3rd to try for a boy. I'm a guy's guy and I grew up with only brothers so I feel strongly that I want a son to bond with. That's not to say that I don't love my daughter equally. I just want to raise someone to follow in my footsteps with sports and girls and stuff. After some convincing, my wife agreed to this but said that if the 3rd kid was a girl, we'd stop trying. Anyway, we ended up having one boy (8 years old) and one girl (5 years old). This background is important because you need to know that having a 3rd kid was something that was on the table. https://www.reddit.com/r/AmItheAsshole/comments/c3sx03/aita_for_wanting_another_child/

At least every single upvoted response is calling him an rear end in a top hat. And every comment he made other than "people are born as a sexual orientation" got slammed with downvotes. The fact that he said "if I have a lesbian daughter we could bond over banging chicks" makes me think this is just a troll post, though. It's just so dumb.

I'm not exactly sure how it works since I was in a different, awesomer, military but he got out after 7 years with a retirement as if he'd been in for 20 because he was in a motorcycle accident and would need a year of rehab. When we worked together he was perfectly healthy and employed as my EMT B partner at AMR.

Fishstick posted:I wanna know what those dips in 1986 and 2003 are from, do you have any background? My guess is the rise of computing as a hobby - one largely encouraged for boys, but not girls - and hobbyists becoming professionals (which is uncommon among medics I hope). The first dip is when home computers became affordable, the second when the first generation to be raised with computers enters the workforce. If you weren't into computers as a kid by that point, you're effectively shut out of the profession.

This morning I saw an anti- Medicare for All commercial touting “but people will lose their private insurance! And they have to wait FOUR WEEKS for treatment!” It doesn’t even begin to cover that A: even with private insurance, you wait (scheduling appointments, seeing a specialist, etc); B: that does not mean you wait for emergency treatment; and C: that there’s THOUSANDS of people in this country that can’t even GET treatment at all that would be covered. gently caress I hate Boomers.
