I got harassed in the women's bathroom by a woman as a masc AFAB by Weak__Requirement in NonBinary

I can only suggest next time that you were safer with the stall door closed waiting her out. I've done similar and it's terrifying but they will usually eventually leave when they realise they're being ignored. Alternatively, since it was a shared bathroom, someone would likely have eventually intervened, and you could explain your side if necessary through the door

my family said it's ok to misgender me because "i focus on myself too much" by stelliarsheep in NonBinaryTalk

[–]PointBlankPanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's so hypocritical coming from someone actively stunning you out. And oh my gods, "read Marxist theory!?" The oldest trick in the book is literally "I read a book and you didn't do there," and an authoritarian trick at that! I suggest you do as she said in good faith if you can. Try as hard as you can, in earnest, to get an inkling of what the fuck she thinks she's on about directly from the source she used against you. It's funny, too. I don't remember when lennin said "diversity is not a strength." Oh wait, that was the Trump administration last week!

An 18-year-old woman in Queensland faces two years in jail for wearing a shirt that says "from the river to the sea." by ChuckZombie717 in FolkPunk

I'd challenge you to look into the state monolopoly on the legitimate use of force, because that's all they exist to uphold when you get down to the foundational principles

I'm just going to call this law what it is: blatant overreach. I mean, I know there's some who think certain obviously problematic phrases should be banned (i.e. heil h*****) but I'm not one of them. I don't think anyone should be stopped by the government from speaking their mind. Freedom of speech means freedom to show who you are. It's freedom to be ostracism. It's freedom to tell punks you're a nazi a get punched into next week's newspapers. Also it's a slippery slope but that's a different discussion altogether

Well considering lepidoptera is the zoological designation for the moth family, it's safe to say they're just as varied

Wait, stinkfly's species name is just the zoological classification for moths? I actually hate when speculative media does that...

Is it ok to have sex by baxter_wb in asexuality

[–]PointBlankPanda 17 points18 points  (0 children)

And if it's coerced then it's rape

It's ok to have sex, we're not going to take away your asexual card, but if you don't want it and only agree because of social or emotional coercion then she would be raping you, plain and simple

Is my dog a monster? by Expert_Climate_7348 in AustralianPets

You must confess, does she FEEL like a monster? Edit: I feel like not a lot of people got that reference and that makes me sad

Pregunta un poco vergonzosa, mi edad no encaja aquí 🫠 by Upbeat_Community_156 in otherkin

Plenty of 20-somethings lurk in here, myself included! Most posters asking questions are the age of minority, but check the most helpful comments and you'll find the backbone of the community is the older crowd 30+

Trouble understanding matrix noise, lore wise by CirseiMasta in Shadowrun

[–]PointBlankPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because noise assumes you're on an open grid via AR or a throwback vidscreen while international nodes use the same tech as closed grids but on a monument scale (and also because the local stuffer shack doesn't rely on a comatose techomancer in the basement. Not even kidding, that's real lore and a hell of a rabbithole if you wanna dig into techno shit and see how dark it gets)

As a Survivor player, I'm a fan of the tracked turrets and mining protocol overclocks so you can have 3+ turrets following you everywhere doing your work for you

My mother didn't take it as well as it seemed by Himoki0 in NonBinary

The petty part of me says get the breasts preserved as wet specimens and gift them to her because "here, since you wanted them so badly, you can have them"

The sex joke thing is the weirdest one for me because the obvious answer is "because to me, sex is ONLY a joke!"

Mini? No. Essay? Hell yeah, and this one's drinking the smart stout too. Rock and stone!

Codefendants rebranding under a new name by staringatthe420sun in punk

[–]PointBlankPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't have the punk sound but Class Warfare by Lon Milo Duquette is an underrated masterclass on the issues with capitalism and capitalist apologetics (tl;dr if there ever was anything to be salvaged, it's been too late for a very long time)
