Gender is not a fucking aesthetic. Nor is my brain condition your costume. Trans people are people with gender dysphoria that were born in the wrong body.I'm not "teamsfeminine", but a trans woman.

Proudly 🅱️anned from the following politically illiterate places:

  • c/HistoryMemes for L + ratio-ing PugJesus
  • c/onehundredninteysix for wanting words to have meaning and quoting Trotsky
  • c/mop@quokk.au

Profile background:

White circle encasing three diagonally tilted and horizontally stacked arrows. First two arrows are white and pointing down to the left. Thrid arrow is red and pointing up to the right; black background. This is a play on the social democratic Three Arrows, since the third arrows stands for anti-communism.

  • You can get more than half of the stuff you mentioned by using LibreWolf. Cool idea tho with the integration, would be nice as an extension

  • "How comics and animated shows portray sexual dimorphism"

  • Seems like a US-centric (or rather corporate centric, German HR isn't too different from US one's, both serving the "Protect the company from employees"-role) interpretation of Trek, but I still think it's amusing

  • From a leftist POV, Star Trek (before the reboot and arguably partially before ENT even) is basically a utopian socialist dream full of idealism. There are little to no materialist analyses and OFC it was heavily influence by:

    1. Being a TV series from a fucking US conglomerate having to appeal to yankees (and directors like Rick Bean 🙃). Which blocked progressive writers a significant amount of times
    2. Roddenberry in the first place being heavily influenced by the navy and him having this somewhat undefined secular Christian influence culturally
    3. and OFC many other things, but 1. and 2. are what came to mind most prevalently

    Despite this, DS9 followed by TNG then VOY make up my absolute favourite TV shows.(I unfortunately don't know that many Soviet works, despite having access to them culturally being a German born Russian and all)

    The format and focus on philosophy, (human) personality, ethics and development just make my brain go brrr sometimes (though re-watching S1-2 of TNG is kinda hard.

    (Also please don't take this as me interrupting you, feel free to leave a second comment like in "parallel" to the one I'm responding to RN)

  • Valid opinion, to me after ENT Star Trek with the mentality of the whole bridge crew being the main characters seems to have died, in Disco it seemed like the only valuable member was Burnham.

    Disco gave in a lot into being apologetic towards Section 31, which is basically modelled after one of the largest terrorist organisations on this planet, the CIA

    EDIT: these are just examples meant to describe the general direction of NuTrek

  • As in the federation of Forges, like Forgejo is trying to do

  • Yeah, IRRC thus far they only have starring (not unstarring, mind you) implemented and it's not even in main yet

  • Brought to you by none other than Rick Berman!

    (Because of course it was... Because of course we needed a space 9/11 + war of terror. Still better than Disco tho)

  • sry, that was indeed a typo/not what I meant to say

  • I'm a mod I'm not a mod here, just a person who is quite disturbed by stuff like this in particular...

    You don't need a rule/law to be nice and considerate LOL

  • This looks so bizarre; like a petitioner trying to court the favour of the king at the royal court (no pun intended)

  • Yo please put a CW/blur next time you post something like this, thanks

  • But that's kinda part of the Zizek experience, no?

  • Why is that? /gen

    Because of his recent eurocentric takes or more general views?

    Also I think Zizek already is the top Zizek hater

  • There is a Zizek clip where he (ironically?) proposes that instead of fulfilling the societal expectation of having sex, couples should use a pair of toys that do that work for them and enjoy some other more intellectual pursuit like having discussions over coffee or smth like that

    (I probably got the details wrong, it's been a while since I've seen it)

  • I was today years old when I realised that "When life gives you lemons" might be a metaphor for bitter/sour situations you experience but are outside your own control...

  • Why must it have this overly obnoxious intonation...

  • My autistic brain hating transitions like that only amplifies this instinct lol
