We are all witnessing a master class in fucking with the trans community, that’s what’s going on

The short version is the a user, initially “dragon fucker”, who then changed their name to “dragon rider” to make the bit less obvious, was the embodiment of the “Apache attack helicopter gender identity” meme.

The premise of their identity is that they fuck dragons, and their pronouns are “drag”. This is, on its face, hilariously delusional at absolute best and a troll at worst.

My list of issues with drag is long, but some of their greatest hits:

Reporting everyone who didn’t play along with them as transphobic. This caused issues over at Bahaj who, bless their heart, gave drag the benefit of the doubt.

Harassing users in DMs, up to and including pictures of themselves saying “bet you would like some of my girlcock” or something to that affect

Things get a little conspiratorial past this line

I’ve been around Lemmy for a while now, and after seeing drag talk, I am 100% convinced they’re another iteration of an equally terrible user called DroneRights.

It was the same MO, their “gender” was that they were a “drone” in a “hive mind”. Again, patently absurd and should never have been taken seriously, except they would regularly try to get users banned for being “transphobic”.

I think all of this is just a bit to subtract from actual trans issues, which is exactly what it did. It reframed the discussion around gender identity and pronouns on Lemmy to “oh but what about “xenogenders”, and “neo-pronouns”, which is like…. Just the epitome of what the left gets made fun of for at this point.

It all ended with drag getting banned from blahaj for sharing DMs with the admin, though I’m sure it was a straw that broke the camels back kind of situation

I hypothesize we see another, similarly deranged account within a few weeks and the cycle will continue.

It’ll move in the direction of local rendering, with cloud “AI” powered elements

It confuses me how a company can basically invent an entire category of hardware, then proceed to do absolutely everything as terribly as possible after that.

New Cisco firewalls? Fucking suck.

Cisco switches? Good hardware, but they haven’t evolved configuration wise since like the mid 2000s, and licensing costs as much as the switch, for foreign based support that doesn’t even understand the question.

The ENTIRE FTD platform is an absolute insult to engineering and should single handedly be responsible for bankrupting Cisco, imo.

Hush, your bullshit only works in your echo chamber

Quarantine the county, let it run its course

No they didn’t, and that’s very sad and entirely the fault of their negligent parents

Is it bad that I’m not torn up about a “close knit, unvaccinated” community catching diseases? As long as they stay over there they can die together and leave the rest of us alone.

It’s all comes down to money and assets. The way it works in the US is, broadly, they get half of your shit unless you signed a prenup.

This is ironically a callback to old school patriarchal structures where a woman divorcing her husband often did not have any marketable skill sets because they were housewives. The courts saw fit to have the husband continue providing for them until they are self supporting- conceptually.

This is an L comment and deserves the downvotes.

What’s funny about that is Reddit is mostly just an advertising front for onlyfans at this point

Bazzite was a 15 minute experience for me, from first boot to playing X4 foundations and sea of thieves.

Take the leap.

Honestly I migrated to bazzite about a month ago and my entire library has just… worked. It was shockingly easy. I haven’t changed anything from defaults at all.
