To turn a man into a woman and a woman into a man are yours, Inanna

Have you tapped on the circle with your initials/profile pic to change your name there when you open Settings -> Apple ID? nm I’m dumb, this only changes your profile pic
It sounds like you’re worried enjoying activities and having personality traits typically associated with women means you may be trans, which could negatively affect your family life if you transitioned. I mean this in the nicest way possible: my therapist would probably call this catastrophizing. It’s coming from a kind place (you don’t want to potentially upset your family), but it’s several hypotheticals stacked on top of each other. Don’t borrow trouble, as my grandma would say.
Nobody is going to be able to give you a test to tell you with 100% confidence you aren’t trans, but if you’ve always felt comfortable with being a man and your anatomy, there is no reason to believe you will suddenly want to be a woman. Feminine men are no less men than masculine men. Some feminine men are even trans men! Being a man (gender identity) isn’t the same thing as acting masculine (gender expression).
So, all that said, what made me realize I’m trans is finding out trans men exist. Seriously, that was all it took. Before that I only knew trans women existed and thought I wasn’t “allowed” to be trans. Within maybe a month of thinking on it and reading accounts from other trans men, I knew I was trans.
Not sure I understand why train games are on topic because they’re open source but an open source desktop icon isn’t.
The tweet is misrepresenting what Section 377 is. It is a law against all sex that was “against the order of nature”, and was used to persecute queer people. The anti-gay sex part was ruled unconstitutional in 2018.
I also can’t find any news sources saying the Modi government is even considering completely getting rid of the law, as Indian conservatives are generally in support of it. What is the source for this?
Yeah, I do feel lemmy leaves something to be desired with blocking. I like Bluesky’s system, where it stops them from interacting with you and also breaks any posts of theirs that were quote tweeting (quote posting?) your posts.
Honestly a lot of people on Lenny legitimately do not know what sea lioning is and use it to mean “you said something that annoyed me.”
It taught her magic tasty water might fall from the sky if she stays close enough to you!
Do you wear cotton (or another natural fiber) socks? Polyester tends to make smells linger a lot more because it doesn’t wick moisture properly.
Historically fried chicken and watermelon are stereotypical foods associated with black Americans as part of minstrel shows, which were usually performed in blackface, and other racist portrayals of black people. Watermelon in particular was turned into a negative racial stereotype because growing watermelon was one way that emancipated slaves could be financially independent.
Fried chicken has been associated with enslaved black people since before the Civil War, because chickens were the only livestock they were allowed to keep. Well into the 20th century there were also white-owned restaurants and brands that drew on these stereotypical images over the protests of black people.
At best it is very ignorant of the history of racism in the US to have a fried chicken and watermelon special on Juneteenth, because the thought process is just black people holiday = fried chicken and watermelon. At worst it’s just signaling to other racists, which is definitely not an unviable business strategy in some parts of the US.
This is children’s alcohol!
They get bad for a while, then have some weirdly good ones again later. But if you watch the first 3 seasons you’ll understand basically every SpongeBob meme, and I think probably 90% are in season 1.
If you ever smell that smell when you open a bottle of oil, it’s because it’s oxidized and it’s not great to cook with anymore.

Literally a spray painted arrow pointing to it! Sometimes the universe just speaks.
This actually worked IRL on me, a huge drip of water splashed directly onto my sock when I was pouring myself a glass 😱
I assumed it was Sonic going super saiyan
Well this is how I found out she died. RIP.
Exactly, without Trump all the bigotry in the US doesn’t just evaporate. It’s still there and there’s still a sizable portion of voters that want that.
