  • That’s all very valid, I’ve experienced what you’ve said here too.

    On the other hand, I’ve also had interactions with people who trauma dump as a deliberate tactic to abuse my empathy to excuse their toxic behaviour. I believe this is fairly common with narcissists.

    It’s made interactions with people who are genuinely trauma dumping really hard for me, as it immediately gets my guard up and adds a huge amount of friction to future interactions.

    I get that this is partially just my problem, and also that this comment itself is kinda trauma dumping. But I thought it would be helpful as another reason as to why trauma dumping might not be the best idea


  • Sorry if this question seems stupid, but you seem to really know what you’re talking about.

    My understanding is that the main issues TERFs have is protecting women’s spaces, and that by having a vague or arbitrary definition of womanhood it erodes those spaces.

    I personally would like to see a society that’s far less focused on gender and minimises that kind of segregation outside of medical necessity. But I know that’s quite extreme and I don’t have a “perfect” solution, assuming we’re going to keep things like women’s only gyms, domestic violence shelters, and professional sports.

    Judging based on “passing” is clearly transphobic and ignores any kind of intersex/non-binary presentation. As well as some masculine featured afab women somehow failing. And basing on biology is clearly flawed. So if it’s not too much trouble what would your suggestion be?







  • The problem I have with Plex is that default UI is bloated with recommendations, alternative sources and what might as well be ads. Meaning I need to help less technically literate (and sometimes technically literate) friends set up the UI anyway. Just so that they can actually cut through the piles of bullshit to see my server content.

    Plex’s default UI is ruined by it trying to shovel its extra shit onto you constantly, making it a terrible new user experience.

    At least with Jellyfin you connect to the server and you’re done. It’s a lot more manual, but the UI is just better and easier to navigate.

    I say this as an avid Plex user, mostly due to Jellyfin having somewhat dodgy support for more advanced audio and video codecs
