That the Republicans are actively dismantling the infrastructure and extorting the funding for science and driving a brain drain to other nations means I agree with the other person.
She/Her - I’m just a random transfem on the internet. A cat assigned dog at birth. A girl just trying to make it in a cruel and unforgiving world.

I’m a trans woman, I am white and I’m not disabled so I have those details as advantages, but I’ve still been internalizing for months that I probably won’t get to make it to my 35th birthday (in about 4 years). Only things keeping me going are the same things that always kept me going, looking forward to incomplete media (anime/manga that have more seasons/releases to come, and video games that aren’t released yet or haven’t finished their update/content cycle) and wanting to finally physically be with my long-distance boyfriend. But I’m so tired and so wary of all the shit happening and I worry myself sick about all the worst possibilities. Fuck everyone responsible for the way the world has gone. Every rich person and every power-mad narcissist. The fires of hell and eternal damnation are too cold and too lenient a punishment for any of them.
I don’t like him, he’s too much of an opportunist. When you’re willing to throw lgbt people under the bus, as he’s done many times, you’re willing to throw others under the bus too when it suits you. So I would personally caution about voting for someone based on small aspects of their character instead of the whole (people throught Trump was funny in 2016, and now we’re here).
If Newsom ends up winning the primary, I’ll obviously vote for him. There’s no other fucking choices. But I have little confidence given his record. I only know that he’d run things less poorly than the fascists, but that bar is as low as it gets.
They’re such awful people. I feel so bad for all the trans kids in the world. There are so many disgusting people giving them so much grief during what should be the easiest portion of their lives, childhood. I want to hope the future will be brighter, some day, for some generation.
Like 0.1, or less.


My instance Blahaj has downvotes disabled, so I just ignore/block things I don’t like and upvote what I do. I like that better honestly.
I feel like part of it is just, how our lawmakers are huge self-serving conniving assholes. Nothing else to it. They don’t want to spend the money, they don’t want it to be easier for us to get around (for instance, imagine a pregnant woman taking a train out of shithole-Texas to a blue state with real doctors. Control.)


Some people use benadryl like a recreational drug. From descriptions I’ve read it just sounds horrible, your vision gets artifacts that look like spiders over every surface, some people see a man with a hat, which is what this cosplay is supposed to be, and I’m probably forgetting other stuff. There have been a number of deaths associated with people doing this to themselves.
I got Boost once they released the Lemmy version, and then I got one single PragerU ad. That pissed me off, a lot, those shitheads are my enemies. I basically coin-flipped between picking a different app that wouldn’t give ad space to those pricks, and just buying the ad-free thing, but laziness prevailed and I bought the thing instead. Still on Boost to this day.
Fuck advertising, the entire advertising industry, and the plain concept of forcing your brand in front of a person’s eyes non-consentually, should all disappear in the future.


I didnt experience this with Johnny’s outfit, the wardrobe menu definitely let me overwrite my appearance with his stuff while wearing whatever random crap underneath for the stats.


These statements don’t seem mutually exclusive.


This happened to me before. They unbanned and rebanned me like twice, the IT guy emailing back was very sure I was using “scripts” of some kind that were harming the website, somehow. Ultimately I just stopped visiting KYM.
I like the one with the really big head on the right side horizontal part of the cross.


AI article maybe? It’s rambly and doesn’t really have a point to make.


As an American, this is good slang. I hate it here.


I’m trans so it’s not just the kid photos for me, even ones from as recent as four years ago give me this feeling. While I’m not yet out or passing, so other people still see me as I was and not as I will be, when I look at old photos I have issues recognizing myself, I just see a stranger. Something about the tiny little changes in the face that HRT does I guess.


For a Trump presidency, do you mean a civil war happening during WWIII? Because that man wouldn’t do jack shit about stopping that from happening. He’d just join his buddy Putin’s side of that conflict, supposing the civil war resolved in his favor. And supposing WWIII’s nuclear Armageddon ending isn’t reached before that point.
The greater of two evils will accelerate the exact same genocide in question (Gaza) and enable genocide in other areas, e.g. Ukraine, and possibly Taiwan in the future if and when that situation escalates. This is not the argument to make, unless you’re intentionally arguing in bad faith.


Seafood is great, as long as you live near a coast. I think that gives a better chance that that “fishy” smell and taste is not overwhelming, because if that’s what you don’t like about it, I’m pretty sure it mostly shouldn’t be that way, I think it tends to be more mild the fresher they are. When in-land stores and restaurants import fish, it could be longer between catch and cooking than a coastal place.
Or you just don’t like any seafood and nothing will change your mind, also valid.
At least they admitted it. That said, I’ll never fuck with anything ‘vibe coded’, AI sucks.
