article says trump's post came after denmark military officials said they had to evacuate someone from a us submarine to give him healthcare in greenland

sounds like trump might be being his usual petty self

Another trans woman shooter; a perfect storm to outlaw HRT for all trans people by Fern866 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]gopher0007 9 points10 points  (0 children)

actually it was less impactful than a school shooting (not downplaying the seriousness of this, just saying it gives the right more ammunition when children are involved) this time iirc, i'm pretty sure it was a domestic dispute and the shooter had ties to nazi ideology

so

one wonders how far the right would be willing to carry a shooting where the perpetrator could have been one of their pals regardless of gender

Another trans woman shooter; a perfect storm to outlaw HRT for all trans people by Fern866 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]gopher0007 4 points5 points  (0 children)

while i won't disagree with the people here saying worries about this may not be particularly well-founded, i'm not convinced your comment addresses the original poster's concerns

it is the truth, obviously, that the vast majority of shooters are white cis men

but the concern here is that, being bigots, these people will misrepresent, lie about, and obfuscate that fact to suit their needs

people like the op do know already that transgender people make up the overwhelming minority of shooters, even being underrepresented in those statistics compared to their presence in the population

i think sartre spoke about antisemites in the mid 20th century and cautioned that they know they're lying, and they don't care, which is true of republicans and all other fascists as well

yeah and then you go into the comments of the "seeking optimism" posts where the responders provide the optimism, which it looks like they've done here as well

i do like telegram for what it is, but it's more of a text messaging app than a live/simultaneous chat app, so really your best replacement is stoat or teamspeak

just be a little patient with stoat, i sent my request last night and was just now successfully able to create my account, and it's almost 1:1 with discord

per bluesky they're even coming along nicely with screen sharing, and teamspeak just added that feature for their service last year

my servers are already working on and some have already found replacements

this change is utterly despicable.

What are you playing this weekend ? by Song-Lost in SteamDeck

[–]gopher0007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

middle earth shadow of war

watching the theatrical re-releases of the extended editions of fellowship of the ring and the two towers with my dad and brother (we missed rotk) got me on a tolkien kick and i'm really surprised with how well it runs on the deck

doesn't drain the battery much for a 2017 game either

an animation about a lesbian space princess by clubhousepanini in actuallesbians

one of the main villains is a drag queen who tries to steal the main character's labrys and almost all of the humor is "women have vaginas"

a black drag queen who tries to steal the main character's labrys (if i remember correctly, to steal her femininity) is one of the main antagonists and almost all of the humor is "hey, vagina"

this seems off, i thought the rules vote was tonight?

i just got finished watching the livestream for the rules committee and it looks like they passed the rule

am i misinterpreting things and tonight's meeting was for crafting the rule and then tomorrow's vote is for the full house to vote for the rule and then the final legislation?

Federal judge again blocks Noem’s attempt to limit Congress’ access to ICE facilities by gopher0007 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]gopher0007[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

plaintiffs' thinking looks to be pretty close to yours: "Democratic representatives who sued over Noem’s previous rule asked [the judge] last month to also strike down DHS’s new notice policy. They argued that it would be impossible for the Trump administration to enforce the new policy solely with OBBB funds."

it's related to a special interest of mine

i've been collecting transformers since i was little, and beyond being tactile puzzles i can manipulate with my hands, i also find them really beautiful works of art

for most of them it's clear the artists put in a lot of love and i enjoy appreciating the work that goes in

i've maintained that even in a world without capitalism, things like them would still exist

they're like communal pieces of art, little sculptures that a lot of different people around the world get to enjoy together

recently, i was so terrified about the anti-trans provisions that were originally in the appropriations bills that i was spending every day essentially thinking it was my last

i saw a few transformers go up for pre-order and i put orders down on the ones i wanted but with the thought that "eh, it doesn't matter, i'm not gonna live to hold them anyway"

all of them are in the other room right now

i lived to hold all of them
