This would be like coming in here, as an african-american and saying that everyone can use the n-word. I don’t have to listen to something that patently goes against the prevailing opinion of most african-americans. And I would be remiss not to point out to someone who isn’t black that you shouldn’t do that. That discourse has been done to death that white people need to call out racism. Just like men need to call out sexism. That’s not entitled, that’s just trying to live in a world free from prejudice.

But anyway, bye 👋

I just spent way too much time researching some of the sports people here I didn’t know about. So many articles were just awful transphobia. But kinda telling they have exactly two examples of trans women in sports in Australia. Kinda makes the rest of them seem irrelevant but yeah alright.

If Queensland tries to ban trans women in sport I’m gonna boycott the Gold Coast Olympics in 2032.

I’m not black either but I can tell these folks are fuckwits: https://www.thenation.com/article/society/black-maga-supporters-racism/

But I guess I should keep that to myself, eh?

Thank you! Also woah, what’s friend.blahaj.zone??

Nothing really. I was trying to figure out the term for when trans women are used as rape bait in men’s prisons to keep violent offenders “calm”. This just popped up as a result and it seemed comically evil.

Side note, if anyone knows that term I’d be appreciative. I kept getting drivel like this, which implies the issue is in the other direction:

My brain keeps saying redlining but it obviously isn’t that. I know it’s [something] coded/coding.

Hey, you know you don’t represent every single person, right?

Also, not how you use an EM dash. Are you a bot?

I don’t want to be a useless white person that doesn’t call out racism, I’d rather be wrong than perpetuating centuries of hatred. Maybe it’s shifted now but when I was a teenager ~15yrs ago it wad a shitty thing to say that was absolutely a negative thing, like calling someone a f*ggot. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

To be fair, I reported you for giving dangerous advice. I was worried you’d get some trans kid outed, I don’t mess around if I’m worried about that.

I feel like they lost prestige more broadly but I’m obviously bias being here on Lemmy. We see I guess, I predict them tanking after their IPO.

That doesn’t mean I think they should get to keep that stuff. Sure, we lost a lot of knowledge there, and that sucks. But the company lost out and pushed their IPO way back for it and I enjoy seeing Spez suffer after what he did to Aaron’s legacy.

“Shakira, when the walls fell”

Hate seeing the term rice used, it’s a racial epithet against people of asian descent.

This seems to literally just be rollerblading with extra steps?

Yeah, as a second generation Italian immigrant this shit is my jam!

Your wireless router probably comes with a guest network feature. Use it.

What does that have to do with the price of fish?? It seems like such scattershot advice that has nothing to do with what’s going on in the article. Besides that, most school student age teens don’t have access to routers in their home to be able to enable that anyway.

Does the window rattle in the frame? If not it’s pawbably sealed?

My phone is almost never on loud, but when it is it’s Caramelldansen. Put so much effort into making this a perfect loop!

The second file works on iOS as a ringtone.

Popular in Australia as well, though mainly in euro-immigrant populations. Ours comes in a pringles-like can though:

There’s not a lot* of dangerous critters in that part of Australia, most of them live further north.

Good! The users add all the value to that site, moderate if for free and they couldn’t even not be cunts about it.
