someone showed their boobs 😔 a dark day for humanity indeed

This is where all the vitriol over trans women in sports leads. Roller derby is such a hugely queer sport, I'm so proud of them for taking a stand to defend their teammates.

Awesome, thanks!

Hate speech isn't even mentioned in this article, and hate speech is a term with specific legal definitions (depending on your country). You're spreading misinformation against laws that protect minorities.

Thanks, helps a lot!

If an instance is closed, would everyone's accounts and posts on there be lost?

I don't even think it's true that men are particularly bad at this. Everyone is.

And I don't think hinting is automatically a negative thing like so many are implying. It just depends on your preference and then ultimately comparability. Hinting is a form of flirtation. Flirtation extends the tension period of romance/sex, and can add fun and excitement. Some people prefer a direct approach.

Puna is a rural area, not comparable to Orange County.

but it's funny to use his quote when the facts argue against Ben Shapiro's beliefs

This article isn't a moral panic. Did anyone even look at it? It's talking about four athletes and their experiences, some of them positive.

Roller derby is HUGE in the queer community, particularly queer women. My guess is, if you have this take, you're not really involved in LGBT culture.

Great advice but unfortunately don't have time to replace the suit. It's a Uniqlo suit, synthetic materials.

This is also unfortunately boots theory for suits realized. I am already pushing my budget buying a cheap suit 😞. I also don't have formal shoes, nice belt, so it's a lot to buy at the same time already (I'm transgender so I have to start from scratch). My next suit hopefully I'll have more money for something nice.

Ecologist here ... you're absolutely right. We can have less efficient agriculture that doesn't require indiscriminate killing of species.

Not surprised you got downvoted here, the literal grass-touching prevalence on this site is extremely low.

People keep acting like we have forever to make change. Meanwhile we are in the midst of a literal climate crisis, and people are literally starving to death with the help of U.S. dollars.

WHO guidelines for the European region say no added sugars or sweetening agents should be permitted in any food for children under three. While no guidance has been specifically produced for other regions, researchers say the European document remains equally relevant to other parts of the world.

I don't know what motivates you to simp for Nestle of all companies lmao

Good news!! Not everything needs milked for profit.

Not sex, pure marketing

Maybe accept migrants from Afghanistan?

She is straight up left wing. The opposing candidate was pushed forward by a coalition of what are essentially the Democrats and Republicans 😂🔥 it's incredible

I'm not mad it just seems like you're answering a different question lol. You seem mad tho, so bye I guess

The most convincing argument I've heard for voting third party instead of for Genocide Joe is that liberals were more politically engaged and had more of an activist mentality under Trump.

Also, I've given consideration to the idea that "vote blue no matter who" types would likely vote for a more leftist Democrat than the ones currently being offered. In a long term strategy, if leftists refuse to vote for Democratic candidates who are too far right, then the Democrats would have to either try to appeal to the Trump demographic (which they do unfortunately do), or appeal to the leftist demographic until they get the leftist votes back.

How does Lemmy pick which articles are at the top of my feed? Does anyone know how All is sorted?

The problem is that "moderates" are very conservative and fascist-leaning as well. The Biden administration is still funding genocide, still turning away asylum-seeking migrants, hell Biden hasn't even followed through on releasing prisoners convicted of marijuana convictions.

And people ARE protesting now, but not as much as under Trump, and these things haven't changed. Biden allows barely engaged liberals to think everything is okay, but Biden is still AWFUL he just has better optics to liberals.

Ancient folks? Indigenous people are still around, you just don't give a fuck about them, and you don't give a fuck about their most sacred places.

Why was this taken down? It was actually useful. He said "read the fucking article I'm not talking about onlyfans". This is extremely over moderated. Just get rid of the Nazis and let us have swears.

Because you can get diseases from bodily fluids

Honestly most of what I know of him is that he seems to to be extremely misogynistic. I guess during the Bush administration you could get away with that and still seem like a raging liberal.

What do you think the question is?

Yeah you're too good for this place, go somewhere else

if enough Californians opposed genocide to make it so that Biden didn't get the California electoral votes, imagine the impact. seriously. it would be unprecedented.

A vote for Biden is a signal to the Democratic party that we like what they're doing. There is no incentive for Democrats to change if we keep voting them in out of fear. Right now they are just incentived to be slightly better than the proud White Nationalist dude, which is an extremely low bar.

Do you have anything you care about? I take on volunteer tasks for causes I care about. Other people care about family, their workplace, etc. It just seems like you aren't strongly motivated by anything besides personal comfort?

it's optics

hate speech is a different thing from the government's definition of extremist groups.

Thank you! I am near SF

🫰🏻🫰🏻Yes! We don't need to all eat the same things everywhere. I don't need avocados shipped in from Chile. Local foods is a great way to increase efficiency as well, there is less loss from transportation. But it does mean that you can't eat the same things everywhere you go. If we want to live in a sustainable way, there are big policy changes that need to happen, but those policy changes would lead to changes in our everyday lifestyle. The party's over, we see the results happening right before our eyes and being able to eat the same McDonald's cheeseburger in every country is not worth the cost of mass extinction.

Refusing to vote for a genocide supporter IS a form of direct activism.

This whole article is about how he's doing the bare minimum, not meeting his promises, and refusing to use his presidential powers to do things like declare a federal climate emergency

This is what I'm saying - the moderates fucking suck and it's not worth trying to win them over. Move the party left, the zombified vote-blue-no-matter-who Democrats will vote for a more leftist candidate just like they vote for a more moderate candidate.

Biden is president now and trans kids rights are being taken away, black people still disproportionately victimized by police violence, asylum seeking immigrants turned away at the border, and we are funding genocide!!!

It's naive to think that Biden and the Democratic Party has any incentive to change their policies when people will blindly vote them in no matter what they do.

Okay, so does that mean you could potentially protect your own account from an instance being shutdown by making sure to subscribe to communities in other instances?
