No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is the m-word a slur for people with dwarfism? If so, what are more appropriate terms to use other than dwarf?
41·11 天前Yes. That’s literally the most offensive term you can use.
If it’s a fantasy world make up a fantasy term. You can either create a word from scratch or just create a more complex term.
For example, insert god name here-favored. Just because modern society considers it a disability with historical persecution doesn’t mean it has to be the case for your setting, or that it has to follow the same patterns.
Of course, you could also make the term everyone uses for her a slur in their world as well. Depends on what you’re going for.
I’d just avoid real world slurs, personally, at least in a fantasy.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•To Quote Contact. If alien life does not exist then why is there so much space out there?
19·11 天前Because God isn’t real and the universe isn’t designed to support life, that’s just an accident of chemistry and opportunity.
That said, it is a bit of statistical certainty imo. What isn’t certain is that it’s intelligent and conscious, that FTL travel is possible, or that it’s within a million light years of us. Hell, the most reasonable (imo) hypothetical numbers of the Drake equation aren’t even that great for there being intelligent life within our species lifetime in the Milky Way, and that’s with assumptions like “all planets capable of supporting life do.”

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It must be damn near impossible to come up with interesting bedtime stories for your kids if you live in a fictional fantasy world in which magic, elves and imps are real
2·2 个月前You would think they interact with stories about monsters the same way a German peasant living near the Black Forest interacts with them, only worse, because the monsters are real and elves will actually kill you for trespassing.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•"You don't remember me do you?" is one of the most embarrassing things to hear when meeting someone for what you think is the first time.

politics @lemmy.world•Iran Embassy in Tajikistan posts AI video of Jesus punching Trump in the face
1·5 个月前Eh, clearly lacks the Christian context, driving him out of a temple with a whip would have been a slam dunk for their target demo
Jeebus isn’t really that associated with punching dudes otherwise…

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•When did Jesus become a christian?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is the "Gen z stare" a real thing?
34·6 个月前No, hacks keep writing generation war articles because they’re stupid and lazy.
Even the “stare” is just a hack’s memories of general teenager movie tropes. I bet right now if I said “80’s bored teenage stares at character saying something stupid and weird” you know exactly what I’m talking about.

You wouldn’t listen to actual experts and victims over the fact that you really liked that one album. Your opinion means literally nothing.
