    Literally listened to a coworker whine a few days ago about Transformers (or some kids show featuring robots, idr) adding a character that’s nonbinary. A robot character. It -the robot- didn’t adhere to traditional gender roles, and is therefore ‘woke’ commie shit.

    These people are allowed to vote…

      I mean they are allowed to whine. As an Enby it’s quite useful to know where the people whom you needn’t bother getting to know particularly well are. That high pitched sound their brains make as they grind out another low effort opinion is annoying, granted.

    Computer is masculine in French, if anyone wanted to know, but then sometimes we call it a machine, which is feminine.

    Every port on a computer I can think of is female except DB9, which is almost never used except as part of a chain of adapters. So obviously cables are male and the computers are female.
