"They" is correct to use when you have no way of knowing a person's gender. Like when someone leaves their phone on a table. But you're arguing with a trans woman named "Cassie," there are plenty of hints. Come on man, just fucking delete your account and start fresh. It'll be easier.

Here's the thing, bub: You've been here for less than a month. You have no followers, and you're following no-one. Meanwhile, Cassie's a *very* known quality here on this site. Some of us even know her in-person. You're showing your entire ass instead of taking a beat to feel out the vibe.

By "hashes," do you mean unique identifiers? Because I guess that's the easy way: "kill X", "own company Y," etc. Then I imagine it depends on how broad "hash" is defined: can I not have rabbit ears because someone else got a monkey tail? Are both "adding a functional animal part", or unique?

Your reading comprehension is bad. She very specifically was referring to the phenomenon of using a euphemism instead of just saying the name of the site. She's not saying that Twitter is good, she's saying that calling it "the bad place" gives it more power than it deserves.

Yeah, but sometimes you end up in situations like Venture Bros, where they removed it from Max, and Netflix has *just the first 3 seasons*. Fuckin' hell.

ā€œContext collapseā€ takes on a new meaning.

Omg some of us arenā€™t so privileged as to be popular enough to know the context! Something something academic economic privilege how dare you ask me to think before typing.

I think it genuinely was right-wing ā€œjokesā€ about ā€œdid you assume my genderā€ and very little else. Maybe a bit of people online extensively misgendering others when the pronouns were right there, too. I dunno. Feels like fake concern, tbh. Iā€™ve never shouted someone down for a ā€œshe.ā€
