Your parents sound like shitty psychiatrists.

I spent so, so much time in trans subreddits, especially /r/egg_irl.

It took over two years of basically exclusively looking at trans memes, “to get a better understanding of the trans experience as an ally”, for me to start considering I might be trans!

I also recall a time near the beginning of that trans meme phase where I said to a friend “I think I’m probably non-binary”. He was like “what?” to which I answered “what?” and I just left it at that, not even a hint of introspection.

I copy-pasted the quote in a spoiler tag because scrolling through the in-line code markdown is an awful way to read text.

I scanned the whole page and I didn’t see this censorship you allude to, I did see a couple of uncensored “fucks” though.

You don’t need 5 posts a day for a community to survive here. There’s not that many people on Lemmy, things are a bit slower paced.

I mod !bicycles@lemmy.ca and we’d be lucky to have one post per day, yet I think it’s still a relatively healthy community, with a decent amount of engagement on most posts.

It’s a complete guide for beginners, they never claim to be a complete list of display managers.

I always enjoy talking to the elder gays, even though sometimes the men will be kinda inappropriate.

My favourite was this one old guy who came up to me while I was on a smoke break at work and immediately asked me “you’re trans, aren’t you?”

When I apprehensively said yes, he revealed he had transitioned in the late '80s! We had a nice little chat while I finished my smoke, he was really sweet and super proud of how comfortable the new generation of queers was being themselves. I definitely went into the bathroom to have a little happy cry afterwards.

Sure, if you zone in on the prefix, it definitely means two, but the word bisexual itself has been used to denote “attraction to more than one gender” for ages.

Do not assume that bisexuality is binary or duogamous in nature: that we have “two” sides or that we must be involved simultaneously with both genders to be fulfilled human beings. In fact, don’t assume that there are only two genders.

I don’t have any specific recommendations for a stacking WM, but I doubt trying to force Hyprland into stacking would be your best option.

Based on your wants and a very quick search, I’d maybe check out Wayfire.

Do you know the song Chop Suey, by System of a Down?

Do you know the original name of that song, before the record company forced them to change it?

That’s what she’s referring to, I think.

He said that in 2007. Things have changed a lot since then, Debian is as easy to install as any other big distro (most of them, including Debian, use the Calamares installer nowadays)

This is the second post today I’ve seen from you about transphobic vegans. Personally, I’ve met way more queer vegans/vegetarians than transphobic ones, so I kinda question how much of an issue this really is.

For sure there’s a subsection of vegans, the more granola “everything must be natural” side, that can tend towards transphobia (ever heard of the woo-to-Q pipeline?) but I don’t think it’s nearly as common as your posts indicate.

I’m trans and vegan and to me it just seems disproportionate to equate a vegan organization that has issues with misgendering to fascist political figures actively attacking our rights.

I’ve never had to deal with this, but my take is that you shouldn’t feel bad for not offering up information, especially in a context where you don’t necessarily feel safe to do so.

I wouldn’t really consider this to be lying, either. Your bosses or coworkers don’t have a right to know you’re trans. Like, I don’t share my spiritual beliefs with anyone at work, for example. That doesn’t make me a liar. You’re entitled to your privacy, even more so when revealing something could be harmful for you.

Best of luck navigating this, it sounds like a rather tricky situation to be in.

I had to know the context for this so I looked it up, it’s from a marketing promo for the 1995 WWF WrestleMania arcade game. The whole video just screams 1990s.

You almost never hear someone tell a good joke about steaks. It really is a rare medium well done.

I knew a fortune teller, she was rather short but she told me a great joke about steak. Unfortunately, she went missing a while ago and no one knows where she is.

She’s just a small medium at large now.

Detransitioners exist, but they are such a tiny minority of people who receive gender-affirming care. IIRC, more people regret having knee surgery than any surgery associated with a gender transition. Should we ban knee surgery?!

This is giving me !funhole@lemmy.sdf.org vibes

I just took an edible and it’s starting to kick in, but I still want to figure this out.

Getting stoned and getting the magic rocks in my homelab to do my bidding is one of my favourite ways to use up my time on this Earth.

When you post a link, you can add a thumbnail image URL! In the default lemmy-ui, it should be right under where you upload an image :)

I got a new job, and the group chat is on WhatsApp, so I’m looking into running a Synapse server with a bridge to it. I really don’t want to have to use Meta’s apps on my phone.

From what I’ve read so far, it seems like it’s going to be the most convoluted install process I’ll have encountered in my self-hosting journey. I’m excited to tackle it, but also a bit overwhelmed. Which is why I’ve been putting it off :P
