  • The point is that the teacher is non binary and forced to choose an honorific. They wanted to use a neologism because there isn’t an established term and they were fired because of bigotry. It doesn’t really matter if the term makes sense to you or anyone else, it was their choice.

    Your comments reek of the same smug shittiness of people who throw a fit about they\them pronouns not being “grammatically correct” when singular they has been in use for ages.

    Non binary people exist, and if they are required by their job to use a formal title, they should have one that recognizes who they are.



  • Actual unpopular opinion: get yt premium. It gives creators the money they would’ve got for you watching an ad, while giving you an ad free experience, and also includes yt music which might take some adjustments if you’re used to Spotify, but then you will also not be supporting Spotify which is probably the worst streaming service in terms of paying artists.

    (They’re all bad and many people would argue similarly against supporting Google via YouTube, so perhaps it’s a moot point, but that’s part of how I justify my sub to myself anyways.)


  • It’s not the title, but rather a sort of “bonus joke” that pops up when you hover a cursor over the image (or long press on mobile I think). It’s a staple of xkcd and other webcomics, but I’ll grant that it does present some confusion for those who rely on alt text.

    I for one appreciated that being in the post so I didn’t need to click thru for the bonus joke as I usually would. Perhaps it’s just better to call it something other than alt text.
