Reminds me of the person who got mad over a scene of a fictional bird from a movie

Ah, thank you.

The internet is a bit spotty here.

I had to double check it. At first I thought it was because I mainly saw that post on dashboard.
By the way I didn't post the updated version of that main post. It's creepy.

1. It's scary how she's updated his whereabouts like that.
2. He's not Schizophrenic and she's saying this to manipulate people into tracking him down.

Lol funny you should mention that 3 years ago.
Friends wife has really bad cysts, she's gone trans, said she can't handle having tits but wants to keep her vagina, I have no idea how she's proceeding, they moved from the state I'm in but we still keep in contact VIA Discord.
Could tell the whole story, including how she literally cucks him in his own house and how he knows about it, allowing the fucking guy to live with them, but that'd be a bit more of a derailment on a thread about Tumblr.

Except that when people eat sushi, they're not forcing it on anyone else. For people who use neo pronouns to be on the same level as people who eat sushi, the neo pronoun-users would have to be content with only using the neo pronouns themselves. But they're not; they selfishly impose these new function words on people, then throw a fit if they're not accommodated. So no, it's nothing like eating sushi, moron. Then again, I don't know what else I expected from someone with a username like gay-bagelss.

I checked their tumblr and they're a they/them kind of snowflake. It totally makes sense for that person to be okay with it

Here's the thing about neo-pronouns: they don't fit with how English grammar works.
In English, pronouns are a 'closed class': you can't add new ones. Compare to verbs: you can put verb endings onto any word you want and be understood, and it's extremely natural for an English speaker to spontaneously use a new verb. As opposed to Japanese, where with some rare exceptions like guguru 'to google' (that happens to share the ending as native verbs), you have to take the word and add suru 'to do'. While the English pronouns they/them/their/theirs were actually borrowed (and 'em is really a contraction of the native English word 'hem', not of them) from Old Norse, that was over a thousand years ago. And at the time, the native English word for they, 'hī', had become pronounced identically to 'he', meaning new, easy-to-distinguish words provided a useful function. But other than that, our pronouns have basically stayed the same--some sound changes, sure, like 'hēo' to 'she', and some grammatical changes, like 'hisself' to 'himself', but otherwise the same.
And like I said, the new uniquely-pronounced 'they' was useful. 'Y'all' is currently becoming popular throughout the US outside of its historical speech region, because having a distinct second person plural pronoun is useful. We don't need any gender neutral pronouns when English speakers already use 'they' as one! There's no absence that would make people take up a new pronoun!
Anyway, if you have a problem with that particular feature of English, be grateful we don't have grammatical gender.

I read you loud and clear. I took two years of linguistic studies at college a couple of years ago, and we went over this shit in my second year. Function words are almost always closed-class, meaning it's very difficult to add to, modify or delete them.

In a nutshell, someone demanding people refer to them as "xe" instead of "they" is as unreasonable as me demanding people to use "shling" instead of "to" when talking about me. So, instead of saying, "ChikoForce is coming to the house," you'd have to say, "ChikoForce is coming shling the house," because "to" is just too binary for me, guys, LOL.

Xe is much worse, because people's exposure to it will be primarily through text, and it will have eight trillion different spelling pronunciations. I mean, I have heard non-binary said as non-been-arry, and cisgender as size-gender. And those comply more or less with English spelling/pronunciation rules! As opposed to something with 'x'. I know someone who's name is (romanized) as Xin, and I was saying it Zin based on spelling, but the more correct approximation is Shin--which is a way 'x' works sometimes considering that 'connexion' is an old spelling of 'connection'. Go onto a baby name forum and ask about 'Xavier' and there will immediately be squabbles over 'Zavier' versus 'Ex-avier'. Same with xie, hir, any of those ones that are intended to look sort of like real pronouns, because all of them have many possible pronunciations. (Frankly, my least favorite are Spivak pronouns, e.g. ey/em/eir, because my perception is that it's actually conlang nerds pushing them).
