learning that seattle has enough gay furries that there are intracommunity conflicts amongst them played out via stickering campaigns in public places has filled me with a sense of profound admiration for the city

"Racist people are firing and laying off Black women at three times the rate of other women."
😬Yikes! It sounds bad when you say it like that!
"Black women are losing jobs at 3 times the rate."
Much better! Makes it sound like the Black women just need to be more careful or better at their jobs!

Black Women Are Losing Jobs At Three Times The Rate Of Other Women | Essence

B's relationship with herself, literally, was such a powerful part of B1 and B2, and then her part sisterly part romantic relationship with the witches was another. Luca was a fun but distant third!
B3 focusing on that felt like, oh, Kamiya and I don't see eye to eye after all.

I've never recovered from the ending of Bayonetta 3 and I never will and this was why. I have long consigned this game to my heart betrayal vault next to Sonic Frontiers.

Including disabled people in our utopian futures pushes back against a eugenicist ideal.
I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them."
That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.
