I mean, with the pink looking underglow and black glitter looking duvet cover it does kinda give goth glam 😅
My real question is why the fuck it looks like the bed is just permanently blocking the closet lol

There are fair critisisms to make of OP’s post, this is frankly not a good one. The difference is that op is in community (here, on lemmy) with the person who posted the meme, and op is entirely justified in telling people they’re in community with that their behavior is harmful
We’re not taking about canceling someone or taking things off netflix, we’re talking about whether this platform with many trans people on it treats trans people, currently experiencing lots of vulnerability, with respect and care, or denigrates that already vulnerable group.
The argument that vulnerable people can’t critisize people they’re in community with for not treating them with care when they’re actively threatened, just because it happens in the form of a post of a comedian’s joke, sucks.
Personally, I pointed out this is a shitpost comm and the wrong place to vent, and that the images they’re comparing the referenced one to aren’t really the same thing. But please don’t tell vulnerable people they’re wrong to take issue with people posting hurtful things just because its a joke.
Jokes can still denigrate and disrespect people. People are valid to want to be respected as human beings while online, and are entitled to saying they as a vulnerable person feel the people they’re in community with are failing to treat them with respect.

Couple of thoughts-
This is a shitpist community so serious posting about complaints with lemmy is likely to be poorly received regardless of how valid the hurt is. I’m not really a shitpost kinda person for the most part, but I’m REALLY not surprised venting hasnt garnered much positive reception (honestly I’m a little surprised the votes are almost even)
And second, the posts you embedded are worse and kind-of a different things from the one being referenced. The people in the post being referenced isnt being compared to trans people on the basis that hes ugly or for any of the reasons that make him a gross person. Hes being compared to trans people in large part on aesthetic grounds and because he has though his own action created the way he looks.
And theres a subtext to that that trans people’s appearances are manufactured and fake, and it drags trans people unrelatedly into commentary on someone people love to clown on, which feels shitty in the current political moment where trans people are being targeted. The post kinda gives me the ick, but its fundamentally not the same thing as the images you’re comparing it to where the basis of the comparison is that theyre ugly or look weird.
But no matter the point, venting on the shitpost comm was never gonna get positive reception. I was confused with how many downvotes you were getting until I saw this was the shitpost comm of all places. I’m frankly surprised you’re getting any upvotes at all, on comments or the post itself, but I’m guessing all of that is from c/all or who didn’t read the comm.

Wait, you have to have an online subscription to play with other people remotely anyway… Why does it matter that you can’t use a voice chat feature without that same subscription…?
Like, as a splatoon player who played and grind-ed rank without actual game servers while paying a subscription I absolutely was and still am mad about THAT, but given that thats the case, does it matter that you can’t use voice chat without a subscription…? Am I just totally missing something?

- Comment on Would it be offensive for me to wear bonnets as a white person? 2 weeks ago:
I get the impression the threadiverse is a very white space and to me, white people’s opinion on what feels appropriative seems unlikely to have as much perspective as you might want if the question matters to you. If there are folks you’re close with who it’d make sense to ask and are black, they might be a better crowd to ask. Or even a different part of the internet.
I think in general when you’re wondering how people feel about something you need to talk to the affected people. Thats easiest when you have relationships where you know thats welcome, or if you go to a space where it is actively invited.
Maybe the folks answering are giving good answers rooted in perspective though- as some random white guy I wouldn’t know. Being that it’s a somewhat anonymous feeling version of social media you don’t have a great sense for who’s answering your post and what kind of perspective they’re speaking from 🤷🏻♂️

I agree that online stores don’t do it as well as in person ones (being committed to being in a specific place where you buy stuff I think makes people engage more intentionally and consider items in front of them), but I wish more people talked about how shitty seo is one of the ways online stores do this so I wanna take this opportunity to share that idea
Instead of having to walk to the back corner of the store to get milk or Christmas decorations, you have to scroll past a million items that aren’t quite what you’re looking for but are closely related by keywords. And in this metaphor the store can be infinitely big.
I hate shopping online 🥹
