I don’t really have the problem most people seem to have with “morally grey” video games because frankly “one of these choices is clearly vastly ethically superior and yet the majority persists in giving equal or greater value to the bad guys” is, in my experience, also how the real world works.
Looking at you dragon age…
stop fucking using allosexual/alloromantic. allosexuel(le) is the french quebecois umbrella term for “queer/gay, and alloromantic stems from that. just call people romantic/sexual or non-ace/non-aro.
it’s not fucking cool for those of us who are gay and french thanks :^)
As an add-on, the reason these terms are so important to the Quebecois community is the necessity for French terminology to be used in order to be taken seriously in the province, so using these terms takes away a necessary tool for the LGBTTQIA+ community in Quebec
Being ace, I did not know this, and use the term allosexual every once in a while. Here is a good reason to just say “sexual” or “romantic.” Let’s not take away this term.

Did not know this! I will keep this in mind moving forward! Thank you for explaining this.
My only concern is that using the term “sexual” to refer to someone who isn’t asexual is a bit off? Like, you can be any sexual orientation and be sex repulsed or celibate or just not interested in sex? So calling someone like that sexual is also misleading and unhelpful?
It’s just a pretty loaded word, I feel.
I know it’s pretty difficult dealing with terminology and labels when there’s so many sexualities in the umbrella, but yeah…
If anyone wants to chat about this, I’d love to, but for now I’m gonna suggest the use of zsexual for people who don’t identify as asexual? (Please let me know if that’s shitty too)

“really?” I say to inanimate objects that are not working like they usually do
“Stay.” I glare at inanimate objects that continuously fall over
“Thank you!” I say exhasperatedly to the inanimate objects when they do finally work right/stay put
“Sorry! I say to the table I bumped into
“SHHH” I say to the inanimate object that keeps making noise
“Yeah, yeah, I’m coming,” I huff at the persistent kitchen timer.
“Don’t take that tone with me!” I exclaim at objects that make strange and sudden unknown noises.
“Stop crying, you’re fine,” I snap as I’m looking for the charger cord for the electronic device beeping demandingly at me.

Imagine Dorian constantly sitting at Josephine’s desk, so when new diplomats come to Skyhold, they are at first confused – “I thought Josephine was a woman?” – but he would assure them it was fine and give them a grand tour of Skyhold. “That man over there, yes Cullen Rutherford, he’s responsible for cleaning the stables. Ah! And that mad looking Antivan woman, well, let’s just say she’s my murderer.”
He tells them Sera is the Inquisitor.
