The comments are full of transphobia. Ever since the orange dump was elected people forgot that anything that reminds them that trans people exist is beautiful.

Because sometimes you'll have to contact tech support. And they'll refer to you by your stated name. And you'll have to sign off your emails with your stated name. And in my case those emails are sent from a gmail account that proudly shows my real, actual name.

I'm just happy that I had the restraint to avoid naming myself Nate Higgers or the like.

The name I signed up with came from this meme which randomly popped in my mind when registering

Seems like lately the internet has been deluged with posts that are along the lines of "I NEED an neurodivergent gf" or "me and my neurodivergent gf" etc.

As someone who actually dated an actually neurodivergent girl for about a year I can promise that it actually sucks. Sure it's cute the first few times she infodumps about her favorite musical or something else, but after the 15th time of her saying the same stuff she did last time for an hour it gets annoying.

It's also really hard to talk to her about anything that's not one of her interests, and even harder to have any serious conversation with her since she just doesn't understand or relate to anything you're telling her.

Maybe it was just her but intimacy was also a no-go. One time we walked past a lingerie store and she had a pretty exaggerated reaction to it being gross. Another time we were at a local art museum looking at a porcelain exhibit they had and there was this beautiful piece depicting nude, muscular men ala Renaissance/Greek statue styles and she had the same exaggerated reaction.

I'm sure all that makes me sound like a peepee but I really did try to be sweet and nice to her and be a good boyfriend in general. I just ultimately couldn't see her as my wife or mother to me children.

Of course everything I just typed is most likely meaningless since they mean the quirky doesn't like going out tiktok autism and not real autism.

I made a Longpost about Age of Empires 3 long ago about how the then upcoming AOE3 Definitive Edition was controversial because of perceived wokeness, like reworking Native Yank factions, because the original 2005 game was antiquated and racist by depicting Indians @Sphereserf3232 dancing around fires, and seen as offensively stereotypical.

These changes were controversial because it was seen as part of the wider wokefication of remakes, like Dead Space 1 remake, alongside the general perception of chuds that SanFran types had completely infiltrated gaming studios in American modern AAA gaming development.

AOE3 devs even went so far as to actually bring in Native yank advisors to tell them how to depict the 3 big factions, and what was no-no, so that when AOE3 released to an even more buggy state than any of the modern Definitive Edition Remakes by MicroSoftest, the perception was wide that focusing on culture-war type shit was what the majority of the budget and efforts had been focused upon, much to the jubilation of chuds

https://rdrama.net/post/195059/drama-2-years-ago-about-the

In all fairness, the AOE3 definitive edition did bring about many technical and gameplay improvements, conveniences and quality-of-life mechanics. But all of this was overshadowed by the poor release state, in which the fabled reworked indian civs had been very badly balanced, since the Indian civs in the eye of the drama-maelstrom had gotten the short end of the stick, gameplay-wise because the firedancing mechanic had allowed Indians ingame to turbo cuck European civs, by summoning super-powered high tier units - the absence of the fire-dancing mechanics made the Indian civs bottom tier upon release.

This was in conjunction with the promotional Youtube material for AOE3 DE was like 70% focused on cultural self-flagellation and 30% focus on gameplay, compared to the promotional advertisements for AOE1:DE, AOE2:DE & AOE4:DE. It didn't help that compared to the other 3 games, AOE3:DE was during the colonial era, and thus for minorities to be salty about it, and wokes to soy about it.

So battle lines between Soys-VS-wokes had already been drawn, but since it was released in 2020, it had released JUST before the great GaymerGate Zeitgheist from 2021-2024, where large amounts of AAA slop, often riddled with extreme progressive views would release and tank within months. But as the last 5 years passed, with games like Saints Row 2022 and DA Veilguard appearing to have failed financially, a lot of wingcuckery have taken positions for both chuds & soys

Soys want AOE3:DE to be a success because it is perceived that chuds hate it, and the inverse applies to chuds. Thus even in threads on /r/AOE3 where no cultural war is explicitly mentioned, there has always been an element of powder keg between the 2 autismo factiosn.

This week /r/AOE3 has learned that Microsoft has in all but name, shitcanned AOE3 support, and even cancelled much expected DLCs, which included much anticipated factions, like Polacks

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ic7u56/the_dlc_has_been_cancelled/m9p5ww0/?context=8

Users are understandably upset.

Most peeps are not upset Microcucks will not continue to support AOE3:DE with updates forward, but would have been able to make peace if they had just released the DLCs, and then finished support :marseybea

nannoyed: which is understandable.

Even in fiction Polacks are eternal cucks

There's also inter-community infighting between all the other different games, like AOE1, AOE2, AOE3 &AOE4, because there is often the belief that the Real-Time-Strategy genre is already so small, that the userbase is fractured between them, and thus shitflinging occurs in a blame game between communities, like AOE3 blaming Age of Mythology Definitive Edition (AOM:DE) for "stealing their userbase" and thus making AOE3 (which is certain g*mers' favorite of the bunch) less financially viable and likely to be serviced by MicroSoft longer term

Here's a "whale" (whatever the frick that means) of AOE3:DE posting his

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1if12vi/i_just_need_to_vent/

But by far the most cryposting in AOE3:DE is because in the same week as AOE3 got this super duper bad news, literally all of the other fricking AOE games (AOE2, AOE4 & Age of Mythology) are all getting new content, updates, DLC and support

Which as you can imagine makes our poor souls in /r/aoe3 really livid

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ihu0un/im_sure_there_was_no_budget/

Even the shit mobile game is getting updates and support

"THIS IS OFFENSIVE TO THE AOE3 COMMUNITY"

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ihrolq/this_announcement_is_offensive_to_the_community/

Some users tell OP to grow the frick up

Some strags tell everyone to sign a petition, this will FORCE Bill Gates to revitalize AOE3 support!!

https://old.reddit.com/r/aoe3/comments/1ihrolq/this_announcement_is_offensive_to_the_community/mazyf0z/?context=8

But most r-slurred of all is that AOE3 has a weird rivalry victim mentality, where they have this perception that the other AOE communities/subs are laughing at the expense of their misfortune? which is not the case at all, especially since there is often sympathy for them, even from the much more "successful" communities like AOE2, and especially since the chances of gaymers playing/buying one of the AOE games (AOE1,AOE2,AOE3,AOE4,AOM) are extremely likely to buy some or all of the others, even if those specific gaymers have a favorite between the current 5 main Microsoft titles.
