Random Old Memes and ✨Stuff✨

152 readers
1 users here now

Got sick of bigots, and pedants, and trying to figure out if something is “meme enough” to count, and of feeling like I’m spamming other spaces, and very quickly of the lemmy UI too (still love you blahaj.zone!) so am opening my own space where I can make my own rules and post my collection in peace. ❗BE WARNED: SOME OF THE IMAGES YOU SEE HERE MAY NOT TECHNICALLY BE MEMES❗ Now that we got that out of the way, let the infodump commence! Expect a mix of slightly outdated: mostly leftist (but never tankie) content, many cats, and some general old memes I’ve collected over the years. There are many, so will try to mix it up! Update: looks like 🐝Beehaw🐝 have banned this magazine. If you want real leftism rather than "nice" (more like "unchallenging to the status quo and the comfort of libs") leftism, I guess you'll have to follow from elsewhere!

tweet by Zara Larsson @zaralarsson:
Isn't it strange how every woman knows someone who's been sexually harassed but no man seem to know any harasser?

It's a particular kind of weird as a trans person. You go from being largely ignored while out and about to getting looks of disgust to getting catcalled all within the span of a year in my case.

There's a sort of, yay I pass from a distance kind of thing but then it settles in and it becomes yet another thing to try and tune out and hope words are the worst of it. Heaven forbid some guy hollers at you and then stops his truck up ahead cause you said nothing and didn't look his way.

That must be such a strange and overwhelming mix of emotions. I can only imagine it's like when we afab folks hit puberty and suddenly were seen as an object of desire and there's all this unwanted attention that we've also been taught to take as a compliment, it's so confusing.

Lol the comment section here is a shitshow. OP had an interesting post that could have prompted a good discussion, but instead went toxic female incel in the comment section and became a laughing joke.

Only this isn't a discussion space, and I'm not here to coddle the feelings of fragile egos of men who are completely incapable of (and entirely unintersted in) actually listening.
Also making the false comparison between an individual woman not giving men who are here for no other reason but whine, the time of day, and a literal bunch of terrorists that is directly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of women and indirectly the deaths of hundreds more, doesn't do you any favours.
Go cry about it someplace else.

I knew a harasser that admitted to harassing the girls in our friend group for fun. Fortunately he was afraid of harassing my gf at the time because I called him out on his bullshit. That entire friend group chose him over me.
Men are trash (myself included, im no saint) and I hope my daughter is a lesbian.

Congratulations, you did the bare minimum and then made sure to make the conversation about you and your "effort" for some cookies.
Well I'm all out of cookies to give.
The lesson here is sometimes it's ok, if not mandatory, to just shut up and listen.

Don't start a conversation with a post like this and start shit with people who respond with their point of view.

If you don't want people to respond, don't post.
