@Lady i would guess that was a mistake and now they’ll have to decide if they’re willing to edit the survey after it went live

@Lady some places will just chuck it all under an other, or just eg. use data analysis to look for common keywords and then pull stats on that

@Lady they do actually read all the freeform boxes, its why their data processing takes so long

@Lady you can choose other and then answer catholic

The second question will be a freeform ‘explain more about your religion’ box so you can also explain there if you want to elaborate

I will answer questions directed my way to the best of my ability

However I am not on the survey team and am also not interested in your opinion about the fact that they’re using a google product for the survey so please keep that to yourself.

(If you notice any major oversights in the survey *design* eg, questions assuming a single partner, and don’t want to provide feedback with the survey team directly I will pass those along)

It’s the time of year when I ask people to go take the Community Survey!

Emphasis on the community part — people who do not currently or have not ever identified as ace are welcome to take part if they are interested & in fact having some comparative data from non-ace participants is helpful for the survey teams data analysis

@nex3 also its much harder to go down a clicky rabbithole with established literary analysis and harmless rabbitholes are one of the internets greatest benefits

@hafnia@weirder.earth also you survived again!!!!!

@hafnia@weirder.earth my younger sister is deeply allergic to Louisiana specifically. She doesnt really have any environmental allergies at home so it took us ages to figure out why she’d get sick every time we went to visit Nana

"I always support critical thinking about what we create and why. The 'why' behind what we like — as well as why other people might have issues with it — can help us create and consume content more effectively. However, at the end of the day . . . '[d]ark' content in fandom is a safe outlet for people, more so than it is a tool to harm other people in fandom."

@rabbithearth its fantastic! It makes me really happy every time I think about it

And its so odd that we’ve decided the right call is to implicitly exclude them from the trans experience thru our language, after working so hard to get to this point

words, gender, body 

@rabbithearth esp since we’re starting to see trans folk who are fortunate enough to not have to do the whole double puberty thing and just get the hormones they’re comfortable with as teens

Like it was always a bad generalization, but the number of people to whom it does not apply is currently growing rapidly
