my trans coworker a few jobs back showed us a meme: "Girls are like pizza. Some girls are like a plain cheese pizza. Girls like me are like a pizza with sausage."
she was a trip. Fond working with her.
@Shinhoshi @moss Defending the use of force against civilians expressing disagreement over their government's decisions peacefully?
The only breeds people mention are ones that are notoriously annoying. Persian, Siamese, Sphinx.
Everything else is based on appearance... tabby, calico, mackerel, "maine coon" (which is often used to describe cats that *aren't* maine coon)
I'm not sure how wanting historical accuracy is pro-nazi.
Does a WWII war movie that accurately portrays the actions of Nazis feel pro-Nazi to you?
Imagine instead they used some other stand-in for what Nazis really looked like. 100 years later, people will watch the movie and not make the connection between the people in the movie and the Nazis because the symbols aren't the same.
Not a good outcome.
This attitude that "we shouldn't accurately portray history because it's icky" is ... bad.

@bloubz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie basically the origins of the term is from those who supported Stalinist military incursions into Czechoslovakia and Hungary to oppose anti-Soviet-government agitation.
So basically tankie == authoritarian marxist-leninist. The red-brown alliance kind of folks.
@Senseibu @SpaceDogs It's one of the more well known and relatively large and modern era wrecks. Probably also implications of valuables still trapped inside. It was a top of the line ocean liner and there's the added irony that it was specifically advertised as being unsinkable.
Anytime you say "palestinians are dying" there's always a well-trodden wag going "ARE YOU SAYING ISRAEL SHOULDN'T EXIST11???///!!"
You have to learn to just ignore it and hope the world will come to some sense at some point soon
I think he's referring to the conflating of tolerance with acceptance of intolerance that is implied by the image text
Although according to someone else's comment, it actually is even darker than that.
