Absolutely no joke I would watch this all the way through.

The biggest complaint about Hallmark is how they lack creativity and every plot is the same. I feel like the missing piece to their formula is absurdism. Like a love child between the princess switch 2: switched again meets sharknado.

Of course not. To even imply that it's cringe is an attack on the class.

Or even crazier, the one raised by the Fr*nch

It's not any of our jobs to educate you.

I work in an accessibility-focused field and can say person-first verbiage is more important for those with visible/ serious conditions that society tends to focus on over them as a person.

The spirit is that you view them as a person, instead of a their condition. It might seem obvious, but imagine you have a very visible physical disability. People are always talking about your condition, asking you about it, it's the first thing people focus on when they meet you. As a person, you don't want your condition to define who you are. As an example, if you worked really hard to win a major award, would you prefer the headline "First Name Last Name Wins Award", or "Severely Autistic Person Wins Award"?

It's fairly nuanced, and within some groups (such as ASD) there is actually pushback against person-first. But then there's people that it really helps so it's more of a "just be chill and not a dick about things" kind of vibe. Kind of like pronouns where some people make a huge fuss whenever they're mentioned. In reality, it's more about just treating people with respect as well as not walking on eggshells around everyone.

I thought "feeling like a man" meant eating a lot of meat and losing money on sports betting.

Idk I don't do traditional man things.

I would have expected her to be one of those annoying un-set cards that make you irl get into a batshit crazy argument and ruin everyone's night in order to tap the card for one mana of any colour.

On the plus side it has she has bat synergy with some of the Bloomburrow cards.

That's why I always go for the parry, disarming the doctor and asserting my dominance.

Also why ban ligma? What if someone catches it and needs to talk about it.

This has to be some kind of joke or troll...

There's no real advantage to joining the largest instances, you can view all their content from your fediverse account regardless of which instances you're on (unless it's been defederated which only applies to a small number).

Too many users/ traffic can overload the servers reduce the experience for everyone. Instances are mostly hosted by individuals and becoming too large, too quickly could have a financial impact on the owner.

Additionally, if any instance ever gets too large a share of users on the fediverse, the way they operate and their rules become "the standard". Then we're basically back at Reddit.

Diversifying instances is good in the long run!
