the “no pronoun people in my nintendo” part was so fucking funny that i had to look up whether this is bait or not
It sounds like a bait but it unfortunately isn’t
This guy literally whining about the new voice actor having pronouns
no pronoun people in my nintendo my
Transphobes eVolved from one braincell collectively to two, and thats terrifying
Lmk when they get to the point of having one each
I think the species will die out by then
Soooo… In 5 to 10 years?
Id say maybe closer to 15
saying that yer afraid of pronouns because trans people use them is like saying yer afraid of cereal because some people eat raisin bran and you eat frosted flakes
Let’s be real tho, raisin bran is pretty fucking terrifying
Raisin Bran slaps and while I’m here so do Grape Nuts
You just live to see grapes be abused, huh?
Excuse me what are grape nuts
It’s basically tiny 100% fiber nuggets. It feels like you’re chewing gravel it’s great

I assume they’re grape flavored?
Ahh that’s the thing. Not even remotely

You might be more familiar with the off brand, deez
You had me in the first half

So I don’t know what “Mario is pronouns now” means, and I don’t want to feed a Search Engine to figure it out. Sounds like I don’t need to know!
The new voice actor for Mario and Luigi in the next game, Kevin Afghani, afaik a cis man has … drumroll please … he/him pronouns in his twitter bio. They’re literally whining about a cis man using male pronouns.
Hmm. That’s not a controversial as I was hoping for.
Nintendo isn’t being bold enough.
SwitchPlayed is literally scared of nothing
So if you don’t know, Kevin Afghani, the new voice actor for Mario and Luigi…
[insert drumroll sounds]
…has he/him in his Twitter bio.
Yeah that’s it. It’s not that the voice actor uses some kind of pronouns that may trigger people like they/them, xe/xim, etc. It’s that the voice actor is a cisgender male who uses he/him like any other normal male human and nothing else. SwitchPlayed is literally whining about nothing.

This is the first stage of the white christian genocide.
Quick everyone blockade at the local Golden corral!
at least!
Is this the “forced diversity” I keep hearing about?
Pronouns are played out.
I’m all about amateurnouns.
What’s your adverb? Mine is lazily.
Just start misgendering people who screech about hating pronouns.
“Hey, now! Leave Kevin alone! She’s just voicing her opinion! Don’t attack her! She doesn’t deserve all the hate just for that!”
I like to give them diminutive nicknames. Bill is now Wittle Biwwy. You don’t get to choose what we call you, asshole.
The far right will hate it but the left won’t care since they’re gender abolitionists
Maybe gender role abolitionists, but not gender altogether
It’s the same thing
Yeah, most folks who claim to be full on Gender Abolitionists are really just using that guise to cover for being TERFs, as in “Trans people shouldn’t be recognized because abolish gender!”
As a straight, white, born male, I never understand how people can get so upset about a stranger, who means nothing to them, just because they use different pronouns.
Like, you’re gonna be dead within the next 50 years. Why do you care so much about someone you’ll forget in less than a day? Why belittle them just because they want to be happy in themselves?
I can understand it if you were in a serious relationship with someone, and they realised they wanted to be a different gender. Especially if you’re fully straight. Then they became a man or woman, I’m sure it’d be very hard to cope with. From both people. But in the context of people that have absolutely no impact on you? Why do you care so much?
We’re all on a dead rock floating through space, with the only guarantee in life being death. Fuck off. Calm down. Have a pint. It’s ain’t that deep.
“My” is a pronoun.
I think it’s an adjective.
By most modern accounts, it’s a determiner.
One of them floaty guys that try to kill Harry?
No, a determiner is a person who mines deuterium.
I thought determiners were the guys that hacked games for secrets and stuff?
No, that’s a dataminer.
A determiner is a mafia-type, usually found in smoke-filled back rooms with wads of cash and a pistol on the table.
“My” is the first-person singular possessive pronoun in English. It fills the same role in a sentence as the pronouns “his” or “her” or “their”.
“This is my/his/her/their thing.”
I don’t see how it could be anything but a pronoun.
A pronoun replaces the noun. An adjective usually accompanies the noun, but it never replaces it.
“My house is there”. I’ve never heard anyone saying “My is there”. But I did hear saying “Mine is there”.
That’s actually a matter of some contraversiality.
You can’t actually just replace “my” in a sentence with an adjective and have it come out sounding natural. You can say “this is my house” but you can’t say “this is big house”. You’re missing a determiner, not an adjective.
Possessive determiners are determiners which express possession. Some traditional grammars of English refer to them as possessive adjectives, though they do not have the same syntactic distribution as bona fide adjectives.[1]
…
The words my, your, etc. are sometimes classified, along with mine, yours etc., as possessive pronouns[3][4] or genitive pronouns, since they are the possessive (or genitive) forms of the ordinary personal pronouns I, you etc. However, unlike most other pronouns, they do not behave grammatically as stand-alone nouns but instead qualify another noun, as in my book (contrasted with that’s mine, for example, in which mine substitutes for a complete noun phrase such as my book). For that reason, other authors restrict the term “possessive pronoun” to the group of words mine, yours etc., which replaces directly a noun or noun phrase.[5][6] — Wikipedia, Possessive determiner
This is further complicated by the fact that some words are sometimes true pronouns, and sometimes possessive determiners (his, her, its). In this way, it is difficult to fully separate the role of possessive determiner from the role of pronoun.
But thank you for making me research it a bit more.
