A nation will always have issues with homophobia, because even if it’s not an enshrined position, it’s something that its constituent citizens can sometimes believe in.
I live in Portland, Oregon, and I deal with transphobia all the damn time. And yet I’m explicitly protected by the law, which doesn’t mean all that much at the end of the day.
Hence, trans pride.
Palestinian pride is a real thing, and I hope they endure.
Queer pride comes from a place of resilience in hate—that we keep on being, existing, thriving, even though there’s legislation and bad faith arguments and assholes and propaganda that undermines and demeans us.

1315·13 hours agoI can assure you, I haven’t used liquified distilled human text in the same way that AI does. I never will.
The entire concept is terrible.
Goddamn slop apologists coming out of the woodwork all the time. :/

2729·13 hours agoNo. This heretical abuse of human labor and planetary resources has absolutely no place in society, where it creates lumpy and awkward abominations attempting to replace intent and care.
Fuck AI.

In theory I could drive over to his house and knock on his door and ask him to stop using clankers, but I’m sure I would be trespassed immediately.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I think its pretty weird how so many lemmites proudly declare that they are blocking each other all the time over the smallest of things.
251·21 hours agoTesseract was a fairly well-made Lemmy front-end, except it silently blocked about a thousand people that the creator thought were toxic, including me.
God forbid I wanna watch a guillotine bounce off the rich.

251·22 hours agoI was blocked by an entire Lemmy front-end.
The concept of death is not palatable to corpo-fascist advertisers. Death does not often sell products, and so, innocuous memes that are posted to websites need to have advertising-hostile language censored, in order to be seen.
Would that we all literally murder billionaires, cause there’s thousands of millions of us and four hundred of them, but I do take comfort in the thought that this is precisely what keeps Peter Thiel awake at night.

Fuuuuck.
We need to stop referencing this problematic IP, and its problematic author, and just let the whole damn thing slide into obscurity.
Hi, I’m a turtle, and I agree with this message.

I mean, Trump didn’t fuck or murder children onscreen either.
Or maybe he did and it’s not public.
Complete with Trump-as-Biff-as-Trump.
I’m fully aware of the risks. I’d like to keep this on hand as a counter to pepto bismol.

Could even shorten it to &rm!
And I just looked over my shoulder to check, and oh, it’s me, I’m bitches.
I should have been more thorough in my research, rather than rushing to show Lemmy, my bad.

1·7 days agoI must be the only decent HOA president around, the way everyone else is bad-talking them. A couple months ago, I got all five buildings full of townhomes re-roofed, and came in under-budget by ten percent. I also got to pick the roof shingle color, and I went with deep black.
I’m in this role cause I was the only person who showed up to the annual board meeting who wasn’t the board. Honestly I felt a bit like Michael from the Good Place—rest of the board vacated and then I had twenty-seven people’s homes in my hand? Very odd.
But I’ve done my best to be a good steward to the neighborhood. I bet people don’t even think the weird old lady with a cane taking pictures of pretty stuff is the president. They just see me doing whatever I do and don’t even know.
I think the difference between me and lawn-measuring karens is that I’m not a dick.



I would like to not have my fine art photography taken for free and ground into slop.
