I managed to look OK

New-to-cohost user @trainspotter who awaits their posting privileges has asked me to share a short game they made using Decker! It's available to play on itch.io at the link below, as are modifiable source files if anyone is feeling inspired to adapt the EyeOS interface to their own fiction. Enjoy!

Intersex is a real thing people are, and it's not even uncommon. It's also emphatically not what fetish art calls "intersex," which is a harmful stereotype. There's nothing wrong with being into that sort of thing! It's just important to be mindful of the language we use to describe it. This is one case where doing the Right Thing really is as easy as changing the language you use. All it takes to avoid perpetuating a harmful stereotype and gunk up a tag for a real community of people with fetish porn is to just switch to using "altersex" to mean the same thing!

There is a lot more nuance to be had here about what being intersex actually is and why the stereotype is harmful, but I have found that the more explaining a thing has going on, the dramatically fewer horny people you can actually get to listen.

People think that porn and sexuality is somehow exempt from like, society, and affecting others, that it's "just porn" and that means nobody should give a shit about anything ever, but the fact that intersex people can barely find resources about their bodies or talk to others like them because the internet is jam-packed with smut that badly stereotypes them and calls it the same thing goes to show that that is in fact not the case.

I'm not here to say a given kink shouldn't exist and nobody should be sharing or talking about it, that is absurdly draconian and an absolutely futile stance to take. But a simple change in the language we use to refer to the smut can make things a whole lot easier for actual intersex folks, without any real significant change or effort having to be made. Horny people can stay just as horny about the same exact things, intersex folks can actually talk about their bodies without being fetishized as sex objects, everyone wins.

god wikipedia is incredible. visited the page for color photography and found that it's nearly empty, skips 90% of the history and almost everything that most people would be interested in. check the history; it was quite thoroughly detailed for nearly 20 years until some editor with ten billion contribs and an enormous userpage with a thousand little banners on it deleted all of the info last year because it was Insufficiently Sourced

the color photography page now has no mention of Kodachrome, or in fact film whatsoever. it jumps from the three plate process to digital photography without even a mention that anything was ever in between. absolutely amazing work. the encyclopedia...... it is so much better now

if you edit more than 20 pages on wikipedia a year you should get IP banned for five years
