I really think we need different words for these things. In my own experience, consenting to sexual contact with over 18’s as a teenager was a neutral-to-positive experience for me, while being assaulted by under 18’s was not hella fun. I don’t really like that they’re bundled together as the same thing.

PSA for the people who apparently need it: When a vagina is happy it drools a lot. One does not usually pee the bed while masturbating, though the option is available.

He’s not only surprised that it’s a man (which I agree is surprising and mildly amusing in itself); he freaks out and runs away.

But the details keep changing in every version. Like in this one it clearly says “pink” in the top text, and the bottom black text isn’t as long anymore.
The story is being told that the guy on the right is the one in the costume, but it’s not the same guy at all.
And if you watch the video version you can see that the man in the costume has a blank, dead expression, and the syandana thing goes from being attached to the helmet to being attached to his head suddenly by magic.

I think the AI is just good enough that it’s getting many things right. They do a pretty good job these days.
It seems like it’s just a fake story to make a homophobic joke.

未来戦隊タイムレンジャー is the only sensible source of the kanji I’m able to find, but the pink ranger in that show doesn’t look anything like this one. There’s too many weird things going on with the text between images for it to not be AI.

It depends on the person. Some asexual people can be quite sexually active because they don’t mind or enjoy helping with their partner’s sexual needs even though they’re not directly interested.

I think if you can’t tell the two categories apart you should talk about it with a healthcare professional. I don’t know what it’s called in English, but there exists a type of therapy focused on teaching and developing skills that could be helpful.

This is valid:
It triggers my flight or fight response when someone has too much on and I can’t accurately make out their features.
This is needlessly insulting:
the single ugliest thing a person can do to them self. Its vile and revolting.

Having a preference and whining are not the same thing.
Things that are fine to say in relevant social contexts:
- You look really cute without makeup.
- I prefer lighter makeup.
- I love heavy makeup looks.
- I have sensory issues and can’t stand the smell of makeup at all.
Things that are creepy to say in any context:
- Women use makeup as a lie to trick men.
- I want a traditional woman who doesn’t paint her face like a clown.
- I don’t know how she expects to attract a man when she’s not even putting in any effort to do basic makeup.
- I bet she’s really ugly without all that makeup.

If you’re committing a genocide to save the environment
This is what I don’t get about the issue. I’m sure there are plenty of racists out there using “the environment” as a justification for spreading genocidal ideas, but why is it being brought up in leftist circles like any of us is taking about doing murder or restricting birthing rights? Who is calling for these things?
I think overpopulation is a problem, and it’s solved by abolishing capitalism. Billionaires need us to keep producing ever more workers for their infinite growth. They oppress anyone with a womb as breeding machines and enact policies and propaganda that encourage large families. If we abolish capitalism our per capita impact will decrease due to the removal of constant growth and overconsumption. If we provide people with education and healthcare the global birth rate will decline of its own accord. It has nothing to do with fascism.
Instead of calling anyone who mentions overpopulation a fascist, why not direct them to an actual solution that’s good for everyone?
- Comment on Should hate speech be protected under freedom of speech laws? 5 weeks ago:
I think so, in the sense that the tax is enforced by state violence. The system should be redesigned such that the school is no longer reliant on extorting non-consenting parties in order to function effectively.

If I need to write certain single capital letters for labeling purposes there’s like a 30% chance I need to look up which way the letter faces because both ways feel correct to me.

It wants to play a video which has DRM protection, so it wants to know stuff about you in case the DRM should block your access to the video.

They overlap significantly. In addition to what’s seen in the image, the wolves’ territories will move around due to various conditions. There are no fixed lines that could be likened to states’ borders, only vague areas that can be likened to respecting personal space. Compare the wolves’ ranges with the white line indicating the national park border also seen in the image, which does not move around based on vibes.

Honestly, the John Wick films are a bit tired at this point. I think he should die at the end of one so that his dog can go on a 2- to 3-film killing spree during which he raises a troubled youth with a heart of gold, abandoned by the system, and then the dog gets killed at the end of those movies so the kid can go on a killing spree and maybe rescue an abused circus animal or something.

What if we film the dog and the hooker and call it art?
- Comment on Good luck figuring it out since it also doesn’t come with man pages 2 months ago:
I grew up in a very male-as-default English-speaking culture. Any animal, robot, or plant would be referred to as it or he, unless that creature/thing has additional female markers such as wearing pink, makeup, etc.
For examples look at the designs of Mickey and Minnie Mouse or Babs and Buster Bunny. If you draw a little blob with eyes, people will say “He’s/It’s cute.” If you put a pink bow on it, they will say “She’s cute.”
You can even look at the word “woman” itself. “Man” originally just meant any person, but “woman” was invented to speak specifically about a “wife-man.” Going to your German examples, why did they make special words for female bakers, etc. and none for male bakers? It’s because male is the default and female is a deviation from that norm. You don’t need a special word to describe the default assumption.
There’s this old riddle:
A father and son are in a car accident. The father dies at the scene, and the son is rushed to the hospital. When he is taken into the operating room, the surgeon says, “I can’t operate on this boy! He’s my son!” How is this possible?
It plays on one’s assumptions about gender.

I use Summit and I don’t know the feature you’re referring to. Could you explain it?
I’ve used the instance name filter to block lemmy.world from my feed because it drowns out less popular/new comms, but it’s really annoying to have to go into the filter menu to add and delete the filter all the time because I don’t want it filtered permanently.

I am not going to share the comic that immediately came up when I chose to look into this. The artist is unquestionably a transphobe.
