the title of a post in the disco elysium subreddit, reading: "I just laughed at a gay man in public"

a negative steam review, reading: "Not sure how people enjoy this. I've never felt so pathetic and uncomfortable playing any character in a game before."

a gif of harry du bois (tall guy, green jacket and yellow pants, shoulder length brown hair) from disco elysium. he waves his gun in the air before pointing it into his own mouth, while crouching into some sort of defensive stance

a tweet by user @frienem, captioned "Burger time for baby". below are attached three images of a Harry Du Bois cosplay, featuring a white guy wearing glued-on mutton chops, a white collared shirt, a green jacket and a colorful necktie. he is eating a burger while looking absolutely dejected/devastated.

a simple 4 pannel cartoon comic. in the first panel, a figure tells another figure "Hey friend, check out this cool game". in the second and third, the first figure hands over a copy of disco elysium, to which the second figure responds "This is a book". shown is also a screenshot stating: "There are more than 1 million words, according to ZA/UM, which is more than all of J.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings". the comic ends with the first figure giving a thumbs up

text from a steam review reading: "This really is rooted in despair. I have tried multiple times to be a detective but it is rooted in negativity. I keep trying from a new game with different player modes but it's all still psychotic."

a tweet by Mia Mulder, username @Potatopolitics. the original tweet reads: "Harry, of course it's normal to get softer skin and breast tissue growth as a 46 year old man. I wouldn't have Titus inject you with subdermal estrogen and t-blockers, what could I possibly have to gain from force feminizing a respected officer of the RCM? I'm a busy man Harry!" below is attached an image of Evrart Claire, since the tweet is meant to be an impression of him. it's a slightly caricaturish drawing of a pale fat guy with foggy-looking glasses, a veering eye and a big grin. Mia has retweeted this, saying: "I'm going back to my job as a local left party politician tomorrow and I'm realizing I'm just this guy."

a skill check from disco elysium for "composure", with a chance of 42%. below are written the modifiers:
-1 Took the novelty cheque.
+1 Didn't say thanks for it.
-2 The chair is killing you.
+1 But your ass is iron.

text reading: "Can you actually get sweet baby pissfaggot to wear his jacket? I was ... Kim"

a page from the disco elysium wiki, for the achievement "Cause a Shitstorm."
overview:
Description: You brought this onto yourself
Unlocked by: Throwing dirt at seagulls on the west shore.
how to obtain:
1. On Day 3+, leave Kim behind you (you must be alone), then go to the tip of the west shore. Approach the lone tree and interact with the yellow thought orb (requires 9+ Hand/Eye Coordination.)
2. Throw dirt at the seagulls three times. This will trigger a special cutscene, where the birds take their revenge on Harry, shit on him, and the achievement pops.

text from a steam review reading: "I insulted myself in the middle of a dialogue tree and I ended up living under a bridge throwing poo at people. This is a great game for people who defy nonsense ideas of "gameplay" and "fun" and are much more content with reading approximately six full length novels."

the cover of disco elysium featuring kim kitsuragi (middle-aged dark haired asian guy with round glasses and a cool orange jacket) and harry du bois (middle-aged brown haired white guy with weird facial hair and a green jacket), with text overlayed reading "Detectives be like "He's my partner" (eyebrow raised emoji) ooookay (three rainbow flag emojis)

kim kitsuragi (a middle aged asian man with black hair and a pencil moustache, wearing round glasses and an orange jacket) renditioned as a mii character, with text above reading "SOME OF Y'ALL BE LIKE HE'S MY WORLD AND THIS IS HIM"

text from disco elysium, reading: YOU - "Dios mío! (Draw a cross.) A LIBERAL!"

a reddit comment reading "Disco elysium killed my libido after the first walkthrough so please be careful"

abusing tumblr image limits to put together my emergency disco propaganda kit. for future reference or something

#the amount of people who genuinely don't understand that signed languages are in fact languages and not a coded form of spoken language is staggering

sign language & linguistics resource!

linguist Adam Schembri has been updating his amazing resource, What All Linguists Should Know (about sign languages). It's a really fantastic repository of info, including some really great basics that are great for students and non-linguists as well. Please share widely! I'll also copy a few links from his page, just as highlights:

What is sign language? (Schembri, 2013) https://theconversation.com/explainer-what-is-sign-language-21453

How many sign languages are there? (Glottolog) https://glottolog.org/resource/languoid/id/sign1238 (short answer: at least 220)

How are sign languages acquired? (Lillo-Martin & Henner, 2021) https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/abs/10.1146/annurev-linguistics-043020-092357

I recommend that anyone interested in or studying linguistics at any level (from hobbyist to professional!) ask themselves (and colleagues, instructors, students, etc), frequently: wait - is that true about languages in general, or just spoken languages? Have we done any research about how this works in other modalities? Keep asking the question!

What’s the best cartoon for children? How about “none of them”? Animation is literally cinema and cannot be appreciated by minors.

If you have bodily autonomy, then there is always a chance that you will do something to your body that you will regret. This is not an argument for taking that autonomy away.
