I recall having a conversation with a transphobe and it coming down to me going, 'I just don't understand why you want to be cruel to trans people.' He tried to brush it off but it was obvious that he was simply trying to dress up his bigotry with pseudointellectual bs.

That, and the tried and true, "I'm just concerned about women in women's spaces. Post transition women commit the same number of crimes as men."

Where did you read this? Can you show me what crimes they commit? Who did the study?

"Oh I can't remember this now, can't we have a debate about this."

That's when I realised that this was pointless. Because, for him, this was just a game. That the rights of trans people were something we could "intellectually" parse out. All while actual, real world people are being harassed, discriminated against and killed.

Fuck that shit. And fuck that guy.

Oh yeah, have there been reports on this ?

(Not trying to shut you down, I'm genuinely curious)

Whaaat. I never knew Eno made the Windows 95 start up sounds.

Good on him.

Woooah there buddy. Borderlands 2 was the shit. Rolling that Mad Max psycho Kreig and making it so that the more damage the more his damage output multiplies. Then making it so that he sets himself on fire before running into a hoard with a shotgun that shoots axes that explode into tinier axes which also explode. Borderlands 2 was a fun time. And it had drop in coop.

So how does this work? Like how did they get those messages through API calls? Also, is this not something that Discord would dislike since it dilutes the value of their data horde?

Am I the only one who thinks its pretty stupid Nintendo wasn't prepared for 2million+ preorders in their home country?

I'm convinced Tim Pool's entire career has been propelled off making garbage takes that get recirculated through public outrage. Never has such a worm tricked so many people into considering his utterly intellectually vacant perspective.

(Apologies to all the worm lovers out there. Worms are pretty cool.)

Thanks for the context. Soooo.... What's with he dick jokes? I mean I'm fan of dix as much as the next dick lover but setting up an emails service that's ball-to-ball dicks is a bit much.

Eh, I read a lot of superhero comics and I appreciate critiques of them but this doesn't really do it for me. If anything, its only funny on a 'so dumb its funny' level.

Christ what a clusterfuck. How could anyone think this was a good idea?

The entire dairy and meat industry is based on the rape and slaughter of animals. Mistreament of animals within the industry is arguably tantamount to torture and would be considered as such where it applied to humans.

Does anyone with a greater knowledge of the mechanisms of the EU funding bodies know if I can do anything about this? For example, can I email my country's EU reprasentitve and present and argument for FOSS? Or is the funding decision here managed by a specifuc group within the EU that my representitive can have little influence on?
