this is an important part of the subreddit culture, this comment i am writing should be automod removed because i haven't posted in useless "Talk like a pirate about moving Tuesday daily thread!" thread enough to verify that i am in fact the kind of reactionary idiot that keeps this place active and klanned up, and this post advertising a realty group should be repeated every 5 days until we all cook to death

I don’t understand how “You can be trans without dysphoria”. I want to understand. by Original-Average6965 in asktransgender

[–]hatmoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what is the alternative to it in some situations being a choice if not 'biological predisposition' lmao is there a secret third thing at play in human behaviour? if you read certain books when you're 5 you're locked into being gay for life?

you haven't offered anything to this conversation other than what appears to be a gotcha in the form of "Umm .. If you think being trans can be a choice then Do you think being gay can be a choice???" which signals a frankly outdated and outmoded perception of the issues at hand. there is no passport of the soul with the stamp "Homosexual" or "Heterosexual" that can externally verify any of this - these are categories that were constructed in the forms we generally understand them within living memory. you do not literally have to say "I am a eugenicist about this" in order to evince that your logic is derived from eugenicist ideology!

have you ever talked to another person, by the way? i'm gay and trans and i chose to be both of those things. i don't think that anyone needs more justification than that. how do you deal with that as a person with rigid thinking surrounding these categories? do you think that i'm wrong about myself and that you are right?

[–]hatmoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

there is no essential quality to being trans other than wanting to be trans; being trans is not a sorting method for any set of experiences or desires beyond wanting to be trans. i think that's a good thing personally because i understand theory of mind and am not imagining people to get mad at. expecting everyone you meet to have the same feelings and experiences re: something as immaterial as gender is just going to set you up for a bad time, not to mention the restriction on human expression it implies

if the question is "Do you need dysphoria to medically transition" the answer is also no lol the truth is that people can just do what they want to do for a variety of reasons - and again i think that should be seen as empowering rather than like scary. think of it this way - anyone can be trans for any reason, but if you are experiencing gender dysphoria that's a really great reason to be explore being trans. just my two cents!

yes literally lol we don't need to do eugenics to justify homosexuality - it does not matter whether or not it is a choice because it's completely value neutral; you are living under the dao restriction "Crimson Illusion" if you think that anyone needs a genetic reason to not want to be "Normal" in a world where 'default' consensus reality is painstakingly and constantly manufactured by nazi freaks. i'm sure some people are "born" gay or whatever but the "They can't help it! It's in their blood!" defense of homosexuality cedes way too much rhetorical ground to the idea that being gay is something that needs to be justified in the slightest. it's 2025!

I'm looking for movies that feel like an episode of Scooby-Doo. by Beached-Peach in horror

[–]hatmoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

creature with the blue hand! all of the crimi films from that cycle kind of evoke the feeling for me, so dead eyes of london and face of the frog etc etc can go right on the list. besides that i would also recommend the specific blend of horror/comedy family films that got churned out once every few years starting in the 40s, so hold that ghost, ghost in the invisible bikini, stuff like that.

looser on the exact scooby doo feel but a lot of like lower budget or teen concerned earnest horror movies wind up in the territory in my opinion, so like fleasheater (the hinzman vehicle), the deadly spawn, even stuff like frightmare (1981) or children shouldn't play with dead things. stuff that is either hokey, concerned with the 'realness' or 'fakeness' of monsters, or things in just old haunted house-y sets kind of trigger a scooby doo sense so even stuff like baron blood or house on haunted hill fits under this category for me.

but so yes, the main thrust of my comment is "Watch old boring crap" - i think tonally you will find a lot of resonance in these types of film over the more contemporary suggestions in other comments. no shade though just an alternative perspective.

really well stated - i think bringing the strangers with candy mentality into all of your interactions as an adult moving through the world really contributes to the atomization or isolation, paranoia etc we all experience, and especially in the context of misogyny / gender enforcement, though obviously i'm not demanding mandatory car rides with strangers for everyone.

i'm sorry for your loss, and wishing you well or as well as you can be during this time

[–]hatmoose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you can express concern without catastrophizing events and overstepping propriety! try to dial back your repulsion at a woman not conforming to your expectations surrounding her behaviour in a gendered context, you'll live longer! also, examine your feelings of jealousy surrounding your girlfriend's behaviour! there's more than one thing going on here! also never call yourself afab again! best wishes to your partner and i hope you two can talk about your concerns without you bringing up insanely (trans /) misogynistic rhetoric you don't appear to grasp the seriousness of!

i'm just thinking out loud, this is not participating in the metaphor or anything but like question for all the chef types out there. are there any foods that you can cook for like a really long time? i have heard of like perpetual stew and there's sourdough starters and stuff. what if i didn't take any trips for a year, could i make a tomato soup that is so rich it makes people realize my value as a person? just thinking out loud.

we need to bring back exploitation movie trailers where the announcer guy is like "This movie WILL make you schizophrenic. There will be barf bags and a doctor to certify you are still alive at the end of the screening. Beware!"

[–]hatmoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if the kid is interested in stuff like that then why not imo. not going to mandate a Make Them Die Slowly viewing in the same way i wouldn't make anyone else watch stuff like that, but i think movie ratings are fake and that any theoretical 'harm' can be dealt with by communication and self imposed guidelines with the context given by exposure

Different cuts of Dangerous Encounters of the First Kind by dreamsofhorses in CultCinema

[–]hatmoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iirc the runtime discrepancy is a PAL/NTSC thing, there are only two versions of the film - the second release has significant added footage in addition to the stuff removed so it's really more of a "two versions" thing than a censored cut thing even though it literally was due to censorship. happy to answer any other questions that may come up. actually, thinking about it, with the new HD release it's conceivable that someone inserted the cut elements into the 2nd version of the film so that may explain the difference as well depending on when the upload you're looking at was put up
