A cafe selling 'cum drops' in Bangkok, they knew what they where doing.

When the satire sites are little more than news with some minor exaggerations thrown in...

You realize the purpose of the community you're in right? If it's that distressing then remove it from your feed by blocking the community.

Sounds like I have a new test pod to set up. Lemmy is nice, but the devs are kinda out there. Lack of app support has been the big holdback from trying out PieFed.

It would have to if the field could help open locks figure it for maybe 6 inches or so, size of a hand + pick.

My physics brain wonders though, in order for a pistol/rifle to fire these we have to assume the mass shrinks as well or else the small amount of powder wouldn't move it. Once it grows again if the mass grew as well it should just fall to the ground if it didn't get an extra push...

Where does anyone claim it as fine classical art? But then again a banana taped to a wall sold for a few million so not that anyone has standards.

Fun fact, a lot of major musical acts don't write any of their own works, but they perform the creative works of others. Sometimes the inspired idea is implemented with another's assistance.

Goes on a comm specifically for pics made with AI to say things made wit AI are trash...

It's a weird topic for the fascists, on one hand they love to pile money and control into those who already have plenty, but on the other they hate Hollywood and their cohorts for being 'woke' in most cases.

You won't believe what it is!

DVD? walks my pet dinosaur out of the room

Really though, Labyrinth is the one that comes to mind.

Donnie soon; 'computers are for nerds, I don't use em, we where a lot better off without all this cyber nonsense, and their Intel is wrong, Tulsi is wrong here, should have gone with AMD, sound a lot like and, and this and that, brings things together...'

It's kind of unfortunate that Democrats tend to be more respectful of people's property because the Trump 'I did that' stickers would be flying off the shelves otherwise when this stupidity spikes gas prices.

Hey all,

So I'm looking to take an active step here to understand better some things that my straight/white/cis/middle-aged male brain has had a tough time wrapping itself around, particularly in the gender identity front.

I'm working from the understanding of physical sex as the bio-bits and the expressed identity as being separate things, so that part is easy enough.

What's confusing to me though is like this. If we take gender as being an expression of your persona, a set of traits that define one as male, female, or some combination of both then what function does a title/pronoun serve? To assume that some things are masculine or feminine traits seems to put unneeded rigidity to things.

We've had men or women who enjoy things traditionally associated with the other gender for as long as there have been people I expect. If that's the case then what purpose does the need for a gender title serve?

I'll admit personally questioning some things like fairness in cis/trans integrated sports, but that's outside what I'm asking here. Some things like bathroom laws are just society needing to get over itself in thinking our personal parts are all that special.

Certainly not trying to stir up any fights, just trying to get some input from people that have a different life experience than myself. Is it really as simple as a preferred title?

Edit: Just wanted to take a second to thank all the people here who took the time to write some truly extensive thoughts and explanations, even getting into some full on citation-laden studies into neurology that'll give me plenty to digest. You all have shown a great deal of patience with me updating some thinking from the bio/social teachings of 20+ years back. 🙂
