Honeysizzle [parallel arc]

• kawaii culture is a nationwide fawn response
• content warnings are triggering by association
• liking someone more than they like you makes you a creep. liking someone less than they like you makes you abusive
• optimizing a job or career out of a society [through technological advances, cultural changes, economic changes etc] means optimizing the people with that job or career out of that society. whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is a matter of political alignment
• discomforting concepts [tangible or abstract, created intentionally or otherwise] are inherently ableist and/or anti-neurodivergent
• if you have to stop yourself from doing a bad thing you're still a bad person. good people think good things
• non-rivalrous goods do not exist, e.g. "you should have to prove auditory impairment to use captions because otherwise you're wasting transcribers' efforts on your own laziness"
• consent isn't real. suggesting sex is manipulation by social pressure
• attraction to women is unethical ["women" are defined as things cis men might be attracted to]

i feel like not being able to search/sort/filter the member list is more proof that discord servers were not meant to hold more than a couple hundred people
i love scope creep i love when programs and platforms outlive themselves and metamorphose i love when the tool that worked really well becomes ten that don't
[i don't actually feel that strongly. i'm not capable of strong emotion]

[i do wish discord had better infrastructure for large servers that act as community hubs. by which i mean i wish five-digit communities would go back to forums and subreddits like The Good Old Days]

i have since added to this list SF6 and third strike, and at one point considered BBCF
still can't wait :)
