Oh goodness, 24 years ago I was uninformed, narrowminded and had been brought up sheltered and rather conservative. So I used to be hugely trans- and homophobic. I wasn’t actively hurting or confronting anyone, but I was definitely a big part of the problem.

It actually was webcomics that deprogrammed me. That showed me a world I simply did not know but quickly felt empathy for. Those were normal, lovely people who simply existed differently from me, they weren’t a threat and they had so many struggles pushed on them only for being different.

Today I’m far-left, progressive, super empathetic, happy that a lesbian friend calls me “one of the good ones” and that I, as a huuuuuge white cis guy, can be an ally and create a safe space around me for everyone who needs it.

Uhhh, strong or agnostic atheism? And what’s your take on Buddhism?

I’m a huge guy, 6’8" and immensely heavy, people do a double take when I tell them I can and do windsurf.

AfD already has a track record of russian support/money and chinese spies.

Here’s an article about it.

Thank you very much

Oh, that sounds awesome, can you point me in the right direction?

“Oh my god! She’s so unqualified! She’s a bartender!”

Thanks for letting us know that you escaped.

And just so you know: I love my girlfriend, because she is the adventurer between us. She climbs mountains and explores exotic countries, she’s rugged and confident and the coolest person I know. She is my knight and although I’m no princess, she is very much loved for wanting adventure.

That’s hardly an interpretation, it’s pretty much in there word for word.

Maybe they mixed it up with magnetism? Because our magnetic field is due to the rotation of the earth’s iron-nickle core.

Holy shit I’m so sorry

Yeah, well the DMA wasn’t going to cost most EU politicians much of their good ol’ corporate lobbying monies. But switching the EU off of Micro$oft would definitely not only lose those funds, but also introduce way more vigorous counter-lobbying.

One pro of the EU’s glacial pace is that they frog-boil the shareholders, meaning most counter-lobbying activities are relatively tame.

But damn, do I wish they would just give the finger to all those american corporations and start a 4-year transition to OSS.

Gotta LOVE the EU, they’re working at a glacial pace but sooner or later (most likely later) it changes the landscape for the better.

If only enshittification would happen slow enough for the EU to catch up to.

Oh wow, this kicked up some memories

Hard Solipsism here I come!

Ah damn, the one making Ben Shapiro cry was Andrew Neil.

Am a heavy metal dude. Can confirm that I absolutely disapprove of this weak ass faker.

If you feel threatened in your manliness from checks notes … wait what? Eating soup?! Ironing? Crossing ones legs? Successful women?

Dude can’t handle soup! Soup!!

Asshole needs to grow a spine and put a brain on it.

Verdict: Not metal

I getchu doggo, she’s a huge red flag.
