@freemo yeah the identity-lefty movement that's kind of picking up steam in the last decade or so does not tolerate dissent.
The thinking is roughly: everything anyone does is about identity oppression, so if you disagree with me about anything, you must therefore be an oppressor, i.e. a Nazi. Punch Nazis.
There is no room for nuance.
They have a huge presence on the main Mastodon instances.
I appreciate the enthusiasm, but it really makes it weird when you're debating something banal like minimum wage.
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? -- Who guards the guardians?
A philosophical question that is closer in application to "who polices thr police" or "Who governs the politicians"

@settinger designed and printed a comic sans typewriter ball so we're testing it on my IBM selectric this afternoon and it totally does work!
Vulagar latin: "Estne volumen in toga, an solum tibi libet me videre?" -- "Is that a scroll in your toga, or are you just happy to see me?"
I may be the only one who gets this joke fully (vulgar here refers to the fact that it is both informal latin and vulgar in the traditional sense)

I'm a left liberal non extremis on the political compass and feel completely without a political party to call home. It's almost like they think "oh, you can't have a party, you're just the stereotypical floating voter" but that's not true. I need an anchor, a cause, a call to action, I need fucking agency!! I cannot trot to any poll to ballot for authority, liberty, society, or nation, until they understand this.
"Vincit qui se vincit" -- "He conquors who conquors himself"
Seems @swagpussc has me on a latin kick now...

Similar;
Femininity; nurturing, creating
Masculinity; Protecting, providing
Individuals aren't just archtypes so there's lots of aspects to an individual, but when you get right down to it, I think that's what ended up working in nature.

As someone who leans liberal i am constantly depressed from the toxicity of the left making it impossible to have productive and fruitful conversations... they have been so abusive to anyone who isnt on the most extreme left end of the spectrum that everyone has been pushed away to the extreme right.
There is no healthy community left for constructive conversation or criticism on either end.
Inb4: no the republicans arent innocent in this, but lets worry about us.

True story.
I can't go back to burning man because of the small minded bigotry and hatred of the left.
For some reason today i am listening to various versions of "dancing in the moonlight" on repeat.

Masculinity is when you kill things and feed them to your wife.

Astute observation. Florida is it's own little dystopian nightmare lately.
If you had to describe masculinity and feminity in a word or two what would it be?
For me...
Masculinity: protecting the weak
Feminity: loving the unloved
Me: russian food is disgusting.
Friend: i wouldnt know, i never tasted russian food
Me: Neither has anyone else. Thats the problem, it has no flavor to taste.

Learning French and trying to wrap my head around the fact that the way you say “91” is “four-twenties-eleven”.
Guess I should be glad “five” wasn’t “radical-nine-eight-fourths” or something.
