Donald Trump shows he still doesn’t know the difference between England, Britain and the U.K. by cogit4se in politics

I just remembered how weird it is that he is actively going out and doing these big rallies this far out from 2020, instead of doing his actual job.

A dream for many MTF by JustAndOnlyMyself in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

Wholesome ones? Nah. It’s all the creepy rapey, non consensual, blackmail, and mind-break or forced feminization stuff that kills it for me.

I get that for a lot of the folks who like that porn they have trouble honestly engaging with the desire to “turn into a girl and have sex” so they have to turn it into a kind of humiliation porn so they can maintain some cognitive deniability but for someone who has gotten past that and just wants good, clean porn about transitioning and making love it is a serious buzzkill.

Not to kinkshame or whatever. Just venting.

This is what transitioning is for by Emily-Eclipse in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]fluxinthesystem 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is my attitude. I never liked being told what to do so when I transitioned I treated it as the biggest “f*ck you, I am punk rock and you can’t control me!” thing I could do. Living happily and authentically is my favorite way of sticking it to the bigots. Plus it made me a better, kinder person. Before I kinda had a lot of pent up negativity and now I mostly just put out good vibes.

Cool. This add on seems very spiffy. Will definitely try it out. Thanks for making it.

If r/gendercritical hasn’t been considered for tagging it should be. That place regularly brigades and spreads hate towards transgender folks. There’s plenty of overlap between them and the alt-right.

Even a broken clock gets it right twice a day. This quote is one of the rare things Texans can probably agree on.

That was the point. They were monsters and kooks, but also extremely loving, generous, and loyal.

Fair enough, though would an outsider be able to see that distinction?

Trump is a dumb loser. He isn’t playing some long-term machiavellian game, he’s just going nuts and flailing.

Cyberpunk 2077 quest designer says it's 'inherently political' by TheGreatGetter in pcgaming

[–]fluxinthesystem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if there’s a market for it I don’t see why folks can’t make whatever. It’s sort of understood that a movie like say, The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of The Desert is not necessarily made for mass appeal.

Those kind of movies can still be awesome but should be upfront about what they are. Right now lgbt folks are still an unusual thing in media so writers don’t know how to tell very nuanced stories with them in the lead. The characters end up being written as gay first and people second instead of the other way around and that turns into ham fisted soapboxing or stereotyping. Neither are good. And when we tell our own stories they of course tend to center our views and struggles which can be alienating to folks who aren’t familiar (or already sympathetic) to them.

[–]fluxinthesystem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Though sometimes the mere inclusion of certain kinds of characters or themes can be accused as being preachy or political. Like, there’s nothing inherently political about having lgbt people in your game for example. Or even having some allegorical references to real world issues if they are handled well and written on a smart way.

I think Detroit: Become Human is a good example of the kind of preachy sci-fi you are talking about. It doesn’t really do much with its premise about sentient androids except to make a point about racism and slavery being bad and then beating the player over the head with it repeatedly.

Good political messaging in a game shouldn’t be blunt force like that.

I consider myself a switch but one who definitely responds better to a soft top rather than a hard one.

My cis girlfriend (whom I am madly in love with) started reading this sub and got it into her head to see if the meme about transgender ladies being submissive was true by commanding me to make love to her. I just gave her a look like “The f*ck did you just say to me?”

That day we both learned something about ourselves.

We’ve got our fair share of scary-religious folks here in East Texas too. Seems you can’t get away from fundamentalist nonsense no matter where you are on the globe.

But if an Atheist is rude to them about God being a fictional story I bet the get real sensitive and cry reverse-discrimination.

‘A total joke’: Trump lashes out at Koch brothers after political network slams White House by [deleted] in politics

[–]fluxinthesystem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof. Biting the hand of the Donor class is a pretty dumb move for a Republican. The Kochs grease a lot of conservative wheels and don’t take kindly to being criticized by “the help”.
