I really doubt there are 46 countries with media laws restricting queer content, so @LGUS is going above and beyond to make homophobes comfortable—they’re choosing homophobia for financial gain.
Somehow YT and Netflix are allowed despite lots of queer content. Infuriating.

[jaj•a•person @jajaperson]

they has been and continues to be used naturally by speakers to refer to antecedents which some researchers have described as “nonsolid” (Newman, 1992), even in cases where the antecedent already has a clearly established (binary) gender.

if i were a medical researcher i would right a book called “breast cancer” so i could refer to it as “the titular cancer”.

[jaj•a•person @jajaperson]
