I still remember the first time I wore a dress. Me and my partner decided to dress as Morticia and Gomez Addams for halloween like 6 years ago, and when I tried on my costume I realised just how good it made me feel and I just started to cry from joy.

(Funny side note, my partner who dressed as Gomez, is now taking testerone)

I actually really appreciated the discussion from that post even if I didn't fully agree. I just love media analysis and criticism.

There's Xtra, it's Canada based but it covers some American stuff too, and it doesn't shy away from trans issues.

Hard to believe he was trying to follow the source material when he was sole writer for that awful witcher anime that pinned a bigoted pogrom on its victims.

You could give Respect The Dead a shot, it's a similar idea to Behind The Bastards but I find it to be a lot funnier and less lib.

Borderlands, I've never wanted a skip dialogue button more than in Borderlands 3.

I grew up in an Italian household so like 90% of the recipes I know by heart are Italian, so Italy for me.

Runner up would be Vietnam, cause there was a pho place near the long term care home I used to work at and I'd eat there almost every day for an entire year.

Panam and Kerry should have been bi and I'll die on that hill.

The straights can keep River though.

For me it's probably "Behind Closed Doors", don't really know why, just always liked it. Honourable mention is "State of the Union" for rewiring my 8 year old brain when I first heard it.

I honestly credit this band for turning me into a leftist.

I didn't really know him personally, but while I was doing a social worker program in college this guy started going on an incel rant in class.

The class was about internalized oppression and we were in the unit on internalized misogyny, and he just started going off about how women don't actually want nice guys and how they want the hot rich guys who are abusive.

He had a lot of other really problematic views, my friends and I still wonder why he joined the program to begin with.

Definitely socdem trash, but I know a lot of well meaning early commies who have stuff with it on it because they only know it as antifascism. Hell when I was younger I got it tattooed on myself for that reason (still debating covering it with something else, ideas welcome).

It's one of those things where the meaning has shifted somewhat over time I think, but I still think it should be moved away from.

 

This is a question primarily for the queer comrades but of course any of yall can comment.

Recently I saw some criticism of the symbol's use because so few of those who wear it ever had to actually experience it.

Personally I wear it on my jacket, and have worn it for several years. I don't think I'll remove it, but I was curious about other people's thoughts.

 

Came across this about a month ago and so glad I did, absolutely some of the best grindcore/breakcore that I've heard in a long time. All their stuff is free to download from bandcamp as well.

 

So I've been in a relationship with my boyfriend for coming on 8 years now. It's been mostly really good, but more recently I've been feeling less into it. This is my first real relationship and I can't help but feel that I've missed out on a part of myself because of it.

It's not been helped recently because I've met someone, and I've really clicked with her, in a way that I hadn't with him. Thing is, I don't want to end my relationship with him necessarily. Recently I've been coming to realize that monogamy has never sat right with me, but when I brought this up to him he immediately shut it down and made a comment about poly people just wanting to cheat.

Idk, I don't think I'm really looking for answers about this, mostly just venting.

 

Been thinking about this song a lot since what happened with Aaron Bushnell, thought I'd share it.

 

Discovered this band through the op to Scott Pilgrim Takes Off and have absolutely become obsessed with them.

 
 

We had an animal handler come into the long term care home I work at today, and I'm still not over this hedgehog named Quilliam.

 

I want really badly to love this game, which I think I do beside a few nitpicks honestly, but the fact that I'm regularly experiencing bugs that make the conversations nearly unplayable is starting to make me hate it a little.

In every session I've played I've experience approval messages disappearing in milliseconds leaving me with no idea how my party is reacting, conversations moving forward before a character is finished speaking, to not even being shown what my dialogue options even are.

I know that the game is almost impossibly large with an insane amount of interacting mechanics, but after 3 years of early access I kind of expected issues as prominent as these to be mostly ironed out.
