In the framework of the dnd alignment chart this would be considered 'chaotic' behavior

showbiz_liz posted:When I was 12 and so hadn't gone through puberty, I (a cis woman) cut my hair really short on a whim, and that same day two people in a row called me "young man" and I burst into tears and ran away and hid while my parents awkwardly explained what had happened. I started wearing dangly clip-on earrings the next day. I was never a very girly girl, never wore skirts, but it's impossible to explain just how unsettling and awful it was for strangers to look at me and see a boy instead of a girl, and I felt like I NEEDED those earrings - not because I liked earrings but because I WAS NOT A BOY and it was incredibly important to me that people understand that at a glance. Obviously this is a super minor experience compared to what trans people go through but it's something I frequently use as an example when talking to other cis people, and it's definitely made a few people think about things differently. Cis man here. Was bullied for having "long" (read: past the top of my ear) hair as a kid and specifically was called a girl constantly. Was also mistaken for a girl by waiters and shop attendants. Even happened in college when I grew my hair out longer and I had a beard if someone approached me from behind (do you ladies need any help?). Didn't really help that I wasn't involved in scouts or little league and didn't like football. poo poo's awful.

Didn't really help that I wasn't involved in scouts or little league and didn't like football. poo poo's awful. Another cis male here with a similar story. My first name's gender changes if you remove the last letter. I had look hair as a kid and a higher-pitched voice and was mistaken as a girl all the time. In grad school, I had a guest instructor one day who during the call for attendance used the female version of my name because, as it was a library school program I must be a woman since the profession is mostly women and clearly it was a misprint on the attendance sheet...All to say this is nothing compared to the actual experience trans people have to deal with. But it taught me early on to respect people when they tell you who they are and not to question it or push them on it but to let them define it.

How are you supposed to get into Judge Dredd ? I checked out some of the older books a while back but I wasn’t sure if you need to read it from the beginning or there’s a point where it starts to get good

Its very campy in the early stuff alternatively, just watch the Karl Urban movie 15 times a year

Delthalaz posted:How are you supposed to get into Judge Dredd ? I checked out some of the older books a while back but I wasn’t sure if you need to read it from the beginning or there’s a point where it starts to get good it's a commentary on American Policing, the unchecked growth of the American free-enterprise system and how these two things combine to create an ultra-violent state. In the comic the artists draw freeze-frame panels of the unspeakably gory action. from an American perspective its quite tame but in Europe where graphic violence is frowned upon it can be very transgressive. From a 1980s US perspective It's a product of another world, however today very few European states have continued resisting the norms of the USA and in turn the USA hasn't resisted the norms of Europe, so in recent years European media has become more and more violent, while in the USA its media has become more and more sexualized.

I checked out some of the older books a while back but I wasn’t sure if you need to read it from the beginning or there’s a point where it starts to get good Bear in mind that there is at this point more than 40 years worth of Dredd. In comic terms, there are little one and two or three episode stories which are generally little amusing stories of how hosed up life in Mega City One is, but don't get too explicit about how amazingly fascist it all is. Then you have your long epic stories that focus more on Dredd and should leave you wondering if this is all really a good thing, even apart from the necessities of a post-nuclear conflict society. And then there's the supernatural stuff with absurd body counts, but awesome adversaries cos Dredd got started in the seventies when people were still writing stories where psionics were a thing. Looks like the Case Files 2, 3, 4 and 5 cover the Cursed Earth, the Judge Child, Apocalypse War and the first couple of Judge Death stories and a bunch of other stuff so I don't think you'd need much more than that.
