Have you tried those enchroma glasses, out of curiosity? They don't work for all types of colourblindness but I think they have specific ones for deuteranopia, a friend of mine has it as well and had good results with them. Not for everyday wear but for enhancing some stuff.

Not for everyday wear but for enhancing some stuff. I haven't but colourblindness is literally caused by lacking colour receptors in your eyes, so you can't fix it with glasses, you could conceivably get ones that hypersaturate the image or shift more of the image into the range you can see, but it would be like wearing a bunch of mirrors on your head to make up for missing an eye, you still only have the same physical sensory range, you're at best trying to cram more information into it. Be positive about it IMO, they pay people a lot of money to colour correct movies and I've got it built in. Also built in anti aliasing too.

I'm bisexual. Any hole is a goal but I might actually punch someone for a "Hurr hurr hurr. You wanna gently caress cooking supplies." joke. And I think its a nicer sounding word. Sometimes I opt for "queer" instead depending on the crowd. That flag really is horrible though.

The one on the left smells like grass, the one on the right smells like hay  You want a weird brain thing *rolls up sleeves* well then... I have a photographic memory, one of the ways this manifests is that I see and read blocks of words. If I see word like W O R D then my brain can’t process it. But that’s not the biggest issue I have, and that’s that I can barely count. Maths is just absolutely incomprehensible to me, if you asked me to do five x twenty three without a calculator then I’m going to cry.

One of the fun things in the modern day is simple hue shifting. The only information you were really missing from the original image was the field in the background on the right, but shifting everything into blue should make it more clear?

Yeah, the difference between blue and brown is very noticeable. One is brown, you see, and the other is blue. Very obvious.

They don't work for all types of colourblindness but I think they have specific ones for deuteranopia, a friend of mine has it as well and had good results with them. Not for everyday wear but for enhancing some stuff. They do not work for deuteranopia, which is the complete absence of the green color sense. It's often lumped together with deuteranomaly, in which the green color sense exists, but is reduced or dysfunctional in some sense, which is far more common. Enchroma glasses specifically are designed to dull the overlap spectrum and make green wavelengths more visible, which only works if you are able to percieve them in the first place. There's also a thing called contrast-enhancing lenses, which split red/green colors across a broader spectrum, letting you more easily distinguish between the two if you're lacking one sense, but to my knowledge Enchroma doesn't produce those. E: To take that image as an example: If you had a deuteranomaly, you might see the middle picture, and Enchroma glasses would dull out some of the red shades, letting you see that some of the grass is actually green! This is what happens to those people you see losing their poo poo in Youtube videos; they've always been able to see green colors, but the vast majority of them are drowned out by other light because their eyes don't filter light quite the same as yours or mine. If you had deuteranopia, those images will always be the same, but hue shifting/contrast enhancing would let you see that there's a difference between the grass in the foreground and the grass in the background (light and dark blue in this case). This could certainly be useful if it's a thing you need to know, but it's not quite as mind-blowing. You're just seeing colors with which you're already familiar.

Back then it was like a crazy "whhoooooaaa you got NO LIMITS" kind of thing, like in that Henry Rollins routine where he talks about that "bisexual" magazine "Anything That Moves" and likens it to walking into a bar and going "mmmmmallright" at the smorgasbord laid out before you. Whereas now it actually sounds limiting in a way

The gay pride flag feels weirdly more inclusive of LGBT people in general, because it really brings that message of "people of all stripes" across. When I thought I was bi/pan I also pretty much picked the pan for the MUCH better flag, I also hate my current (lesbian) flag, idk why they have to be so drat ugly. Im not sure they're the worst flags but they're up there

Sexuality is so complex and nuanced that a mere flag can’t convey it, which is why we clearly need to adapt ye olde forum signature Geek Codes but for sex and gender.

That's weird cuz like all the other classifications are adjectives. Gay, adjective. Straight, adjective. Lesbian ... kind of sticky, mucous membrane noun. Kind of could be a rare and obscure South African arboreal tree frog that only comes down form the triple canopy jungle foliage to mate and hatch the eggs and then die. "The lesbians mate during the rainy season. The female carries the eggs on her back and is fertilized by the male. She goes back up into the tree and waits. Her babies are hatched and then the lesbian dies." It just sounds icky. And it must be a man coming up with the name for women who dig women. A man who is mad at a woman who has no need for his dick.

I did by chance once see a 'military-style' trans flag that darkened its colors and looked surprisingly good, although they turned the pink into kind of a maroon, which I didn't like. I think the pink is very important to the trans flag's meaning. I've always personally liked how soft the trans flag's colors are, just because it makes trans people themselves feel very friendly (which, as one, I can say is mostly true). Maybe not a good thing in every single situation, but I do feel like it's a positive when dealing with transphobes. Gives them more of a 'looks like they're railing against the Care Bears' vibe.
