Thanks for help me out with this important experiment. I think we’ve proven definitively that while there may be no stupid questions, there definitely are plenty of stupid answers. I feel like we’ve made significant progress for humanity today. Thanks, guys…
I’ve got a tea party to run off to, but don’t forget to register for gishwhes.com before tomorrow at 1 PM PDT if you want to win the autographed prize pack from me!
Just because you’re a minor doesn’t mean you’re pure and innocent and can do no wrong, and doesn’t mean that if you do wrong that we all just have to look the other way.
Your actions have consequences, and you can and will be held accountable for serious behaviour.
You don’t get to go on your witch hunts and then turn around, bat your eyelids, and whine that “I’m just a minor!”
Being a juvenile doesn’t mean that you’re exempt from being abusive, hurting other people, and being a bad person.
You’re not an innocent little kid. You’re not a saviour. You’re a juvenile delinquent.
Stalking, harrassment, and threats of violence are not somehow better than people exploring fiction just because this violent person is a minor.
Your age is not an excuse.
This has been a PSA from mod ｖｉｃｅ.
I don’t like calling people “juvenile delinquents,” but otherwise?
This is a good point. Many kids and youth are terribly mean, and just kind of… do things that many adults would find breathtakingly cruel, and don’t really seem to get that they shouldn’t.
Some adults are breathtakingly cruel too, of course. I’d never deny that.
But some kids really don’t know that really awful behaviors are immoral until someone teaches them so.
No, antis aren’t little kids… but black and white reasoning IS common in younger people. I think it’s important to recognize that.
Doesn’t mean “don’t take youth seriously,” but it does mean “maturity is a thing, not an ageist oppressive lie.”
And there are very few places where a 15 or 16 year old can’t be held responsible for their own actions. You might be able to argue diminished responsibility or mitigating circumstances, but you drive someone to suicide? Manslaughter. You’re not five, the law won’t treat you like you are pretty much anywhere.
Few places treat all “minors” the same, because holding five year olds and 15 year olds to the same level of responsibility would be ridiculous. Don’t expect adults on the internet to take the same level of care they would if you were under 10, especially if you’re harassing them.
Acting like you have the right to dictate acceptable sexuality to adults (anti-shippers, seriously, wtf) and then crying “I’m a minor, you can’t be mean to me” is so transparently nonsensical and manipulative, pretty much all adults can see through it immediately.
Either you’re old enough to do things and be held responsible, or you’re not. You can’t have it both ways.
Lance was tryin to Sugar Daddy Allura with literally zero (0) moneys like what a fucking mood
I’m ngl it’s kind of disgusting that you’re calling Lance, a minor, some sort of sugar daddy. That is very not okay.
Checked and op is a shaladin that explains a lot
The discourse in this fandom never ceases to amaze me.
Lance is not a prepubescent child. Fucking christ
lance: *literally makes several sexual jokes through out the series* *is clearly not a small child* some dumbass on here: lance is a tiny boy who has never thought about sex ever and these offend me personally,
we are talking about a guy who canonically has a mermaid kink and likes being tied up….like what the fuck are you on about?
Evidence that Lance isn’t actually your Innocent Baby™:
This one honestly should have tipped you off about him. In the fucking pilot episode, thank you very much.
He got innuendos.
Ya boy Lance knows about bondage play…
[Translation: “Me gusta”]
Return of the Bondage kink.
And you’re telling me he wouldn’t know about Sugar Daddys or *gasp* imagine being in that scenario?
Honestly, that’s probably one of the tamest things this guy is into.
I just googled AO3. THANK YOU for introducing me to it! I can’t wait to dig into the various tags in there. I also can’t believe that there are only 4600 works of slash fiction that mention my name. Where did all the others go?
Given the sudden interest for the color of dresses and vision, here some of the fascinating findings we did recently.
The color nuances we see depend on the number and distribution of cones (=color receptors) in our eye. You can check this rainbow: how many color nuances do you count?
You see less than 20 color nuances: you are a dichromats, like dogs, which means you have 2 types of cones only. You are likely to wear black, beige, and blue. 25% of the population is dichromat.
You see between 20 and 32 color nuances: you are a trichromat, you have 3 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green and red area). You enjoy
different colors as you can appreciate them. 50% of the population is
trichromat.
You see between 33 and 39 colors: you are a
tetrachromat, like bees, and have 4 types of cones (in the purple/blue,
green, red plus yellow area). You are irritated by yellow, so this color
will be nowhere to be found in your wardrobe. 25% of the population is
tetrachromat.
You see more than 39 color nuances: come on, you are
making up things! there are only 39 different colors in the test and
probably only 35 are properly translated by your computer screen anyway
🙂
It is highly probable that people who have an additional 4th
cone do not get tricked by blue/black or white/gold dresses, no matter
the background light 😉
I see 21 colors. I had no idea there are so many more.
I see 35-39 colours, and I hate the colour yellow. That was actually what made me curious enough to stop scrolling and count. Who knew there was a scientific reason behind my colour preferences?
So the idea here is that what I see as annoyingly, garishly bright, most people don’t see as clearly, and that’s why it’s “cheerful?” (I’ve never understood that description of yellow.)
