Pretty sure she's being sarcastic here. That's her whole schtick.

Pretty sure? I thought the Lemmy audience was better at detecting sarcasm than Reddit โ˜น๏ธ I guess I'll have to keep on using sarcasm tags here too then.

It's not a problem with the platform, any online setting that has diverse enough views are going to require that. To get away from them you need to just put out views that basically everyone agrees with, which can be done by either sticking to echochambers or just having absurdly accepted views.

This also only happens among people who don't know eachother. Smaller groups usually know eachother well enough to Intuit intention, or at least have no compunction against asking for clarification.

Gotta account for folks at different places on the spectrum. Some people can't help but interpret things literally.

Nah, Im 100% sure, but for whatever reason I dont like to be so assertive when I speak.

That's no defence for hate. How about just... not putting that trash out here?

That's how satire works. Do you think she unironically believes men get into 40k to impress women?

I can't imagine going through life being this sensitive to absurd sarcastic jabs. For the sake of my sanity, I have to cross my fingers and hope you were just badly joking along, too.

Women will never be interested in my paranoid rants about big tech and surveillance states

Have you tried presenting them in the form of a sonnet? I hear chicks dig poetry.

My girlfriend said not too ๐Ÿ˜” Can't tell if she thinks it would be too effective and I might attract other women or if she doesn't want to hear it ๐Ÿค”

Holy shit that's my comment lmao. I'm going through top posts and just upvoted my own damn comment because I thought it was funny. I really legitimately laughed at my own joke

They know! Abandon your miniatures!

wait, that's how you impresses girls? oh shit I've been doing it all wrong.

Don't worry, it has to be painted good to impress the ladies.

why are you so cruel?

Just keeping it real, don't rely on your Warhammer minis to pull chicks, gotta have a backup like winning a regional MTG tournament to really be rolling in the ladies

Don't be ridiculous not all women are gonna want your ratchet 40k hand painted figures. Some of us have class and want d&d hand painted figures.

if it can't at least be a proxy in my army you're too high maintenance anyway

Not gonna lie. Guys who put that much passion and attention to detail into their hobbies: That's hot yo.

My only hobby is motorbikes. I am unsure of how to put a lot of detail onto that hobby.

However. Throttle goes vroooom

What do you like about motorbikes? Is it the bike itself? The ride? The journey on the open rode?

I do like the idea of doing a gigantic roadtrip on a motorcycle. Biking across the US would be a bucketlist item for me.

I just love bikes. I think it's the huge adrenaline rush from them. And they feel amazing to ride. And the power is amazing. The community is also super friendly. The way they make feel as well, I just can't describe it. Best I can try is, I haven't met anything or anyone that I'm constantly excited to be around. Or that I don't get bored after a while. I've only had my big bike for about a month. But I'm always itching to go out. Even after coming home.

I'm not American. But if there is one thing I want to do over there, it is a road trip around America on a bike. Or Australia. Definitely the auto bahn in Germany. And I have no issue with packing light. All I need is a phone charger, money for petrol, and a few pairs of underwear.

I've ridden coast to coast across the US a number of times with just the things I can fit on the bike and camping wherever I can find a spot. It's definitely worth it and you can do it on almost any bike so it doesn't need to be crazy expensive either!

Do your own maintenance, maybe get into modding them a bit. Definitely room for details.

Or track days. It's the little things that count when you're rocketing down a track at a buck sixty.

I've only had mine for about a month now. So, I haven't had the chance to do too much on it. But I'm looking forward to adding little bits and pieces.

And yes, I really want to do a track day, I just don't wanna fuck the bike.

Lies. No woman ever is, has been or will be impressed by me discussing the relative merits of various road bike group sets.

Because road bikes are for sissies. Real men ride the mountain.

Dura-ace? Ditch. Ride Saint, bitch.

/s

I admit it, it's true. Every since I got into Warhammer 40K I've had so much sex with tons of beautiful women. It's gotten so bad that I now get an erection, every time I look at the Emperor of Mankind

'now' you get an erection when you look at the Emperor of Mankind?

Meaning... you didn't before?

YES COMMISSAR, THAT'S THE HERETIC RIGHT THERE

Pug Jesus, I just want to say, thank you for all of the content. Especially over at NCD. The majority of posts I see, come from you. Thanks for sharing to all the relevant places.

Just trying to keep a little life in here while the Fediverse finds its feet!

Here's a picture of my pug for your effort.

Oh my goodness, what a little blessing they are!

That blessing has the rage of a pride of lions, I haven't been abused so much by a dog as much as that beautiful little bitch and she's only 14 weeks old lol.

If that pug dies for my sins I'm going to be very upset.

Don't worry, it's my job to die for the sins of mankind; redeeming the evil we have committed by the blessing of small respiratorially challenged dogs. They are holy and make us better

I don't think being a sysadmin in the fringes of the internet can impress a girl

I'm dunno dude I'm swooning

Who wouldn't for Mr. Belch, Administrator of Systems.

Senior admin, probably. Or at least he should be, by now. Can you tell I'm bitter?

Didn't she end up going full blown right-wing

Shoe's never been right wing, and she's steadily moved further left throughout her career.

All I know is that she catered to the anti-feminist crowd with her "skeptic" boyfriend back when people like Sargon had their peak.

Overall she has moved left, but recently she had some really weird reactionary takes and she tends to pal around with people who are nice to her regardless of their political views. Her current boyfriend is, as far as I know, a conservative. Imo seems kinda spineless to be friends with people who actually don't want you to exist.

If anything the opposite imo. AFAIK she really adopted the anti feminist anti woke agenda at some point but moved more left over the years, not sure she was ever right wing though.

From what I understand, she's a typical "right wing" Atheist.

She used to be with a youtuber called "Armored Skeptic". (If you know, you know.)

Atheists ended up being seen as right wing after sensitivity became a core requirement to be welcome in left wing discourse.

Completely denying God is Islamophobic, and therefore alt-right.

And while they are usually accepting of the right to transition, Atheists also tend to not see the mind-over-matter style "I think I am female, therefore I am." as meaningful, but instead view the biological influence of hormones and the social effects of behavior and clothing to be what makes a transition go from a desire to a materialized reality.

This is a transphobic way to view transitions, and therefore right wing.

These days, men like Richard Dawkins have very little influence. Atheism (and anti-theism) peaked around 2010, but after gaining a very bad image there are now few who will self-label as an atheist, even fewer will call themselves anti-theists. They'll rather say "I'm not religious", "I'm agnostic", if not declining to answer completely.

Wtf are you smoking

Is it the "denying God means Islamophobia" thing? Its a pretty weak claim in most western contexts, though if you state your disbelief in an Islamic theocracy your head comes off all the same. It would be more accurate to say denying God usually comes with disrespect towards belief, and dislike of harmful beliefs. Feelings Islam becomes a prominent target of as a major religion, and due to its very harmful belief system the dislike tends to be very strong.

So, was that it, or was it something else?

Islamophobia is not right wing. You're mixing it with racism. Transphobia is not right wing, just more common in the right.

I think the whole claim is just plain stupid regardless of the context. In Islamic theocracies atheism would basically be heresy.

Also the claims about transphobia. That has nothing to do with being an atheist and all about being an asshole.

Reminds me of an episode of 'Cheers.'

Womanizer Sam realizes that everything he's ever done was to impress women. Played baseball to impress the ladies; brought a sports car to impress the ladies; brought a bar to have a cool job. Then Rebecca points out that he loves the 3 Stooges and all woman hate that stuff...

If that were true... would not "impress them gurrls" be an interest to begin with?

We play with figurines for the same reason you wear makeup, ladies. It's a nice little escape from reality.

Why is she popular? She's not funny, she's not intelligent, she's not controversial, she doesn't whore herself out, and she doesn't have any particular talent or shtick. She's just so... bland. What's her appeal? Why does she have so many simps?

She used to post on /b/ and made YouTube videos. She definitely used to be more edgy. The phrase, "shoe on head," was frequently asked when somebody would post a picture of themselves on /b/. Because it's almost entirely teenage boys, the chances of talking to a guy posting stolen pictures from some girl's Photobucket account was almost a guarantee. So guys started requesting weird things like, "post a picture with a shoe on your head," to prove the girl was actually a girl. I hope I typed this out coherently. I'm sleep deprived

or the sharpie

And even before the sharpie, the demand to see a topless photo before any "genuine" conversation would be allowed to take place

It might be that she has a symmetrical face and appealing features like most popular yters?

Isnt ShoeOnHead the lol so random XD right wing grifter

She's not but I stopped watching her once she started comparing kinksters with drag queens and saying both should not be in Pride because of kids.

She has opinions but she's not right wing. Far from it actually. She just has some really bad takes.

Big yikes on that take from her. I know nothing about her, I just had this quote saved and thought it suitably hilarious to share.

Furiously scanning through the "LGBT flags" results from DuckDuckGo like it's an Audubon Bird Guide trying to nail down the "ABisexual Meg White Transwoman" thing she's got going on. You'd think the flag colors would be a gimme, but noo, trolls be trolling.

Too cute, with her studded leather jacket shoulders. She knows too much. Namechecking Warhammer like she's been on 4Chan recently. Sus. Saw her vent. Possible girldick. Missing top for 196. Her people need her.

none of these words were in the bible.

what the fuck are u on about

Reckon greentext might leak over here more than Reddit. Hopefully the ratio of chud:not will go down and moderation will be standardized before it gets gross. That, or this is a good, esoteric Andrew Bowser-esque comedy bit they're doing.

I dunno on what drugs you're on, but it's high time for you to finally go to rehab

Wtf are you on about you weirdo

Also, that's an american flag with pink lighting
