Yes

this sucks so hard we need an alternative to tumblr’s format but using tech like lemmy

Yes. I do so when it’s within my means. And I wish them well because it’s not easy being considered an unperson on top of whatever circumstances brought them in that position in the first place.

The audacity for them to try this when we require pronouns and display them prominently but sure, we must be really committed to the bit. So much that we have several communities and do reading groups as well.

Maybe they should join us in reading through Trans Liberation, they might actually learn a thing or two.

I’m so glad I ditched that instance for here. I might lurk a lot but I know this place has got my back. I love my comrades!

Didn’t happen soon enough, good riddance.

Playing as a Sage, can confirm.

I’ve been using Jerboa and enjoy it a lot, the only gripe I have is no easy access to custom emoji.

A giant tomboy, having attachment to the “weird girl” characters, pretending to be Tuxedo Mask while my friends down the street were Sailor Scouts, avoid wearing any type of bra for the longest time and not understanding why anyone would want to emphasize them, discomfort with tight clothing, picking boy characters more than girl ones, etc. Granted some of that is also the neurodivergence-- I think being autistic was a factor in my journey since I wasn’t attached to or aware of a lot of the social aspects of gender presentation, anyways. I consider myself nonbinary but also butch (butch-as-gender).

That’s fair! I’m sure there are decent ones out there, it’s finding them that seems to be difficult in no small due to tech culture (and especially combined with corpo culture). 😔

Hearing the things my partner has been through on various projects I gotta agree with this meme.

Great post, I’m way overdue for reading this. Also sharing the file with all my friends is praxis.

i love my choccy mint chip but halo top had(?) this green tea mochi flavor that was rly good

You first. Follow your leader.

Fingers crossed I can get my meds since I’m out of refills and got no insurance. Sometimes the doc does a solid and gives at least one more month beyond the refill amount on the bottle.

Oh, cool! I’m an oldie lol, my first was red. Welcome to the world of Pokemon, enjoy the cute critters and weird dex entries.

And tbh despite the bugs and whatnot, I’d consider SV to be a solid entry in the series. Scarlet > Violet, we get the better paradox 'mons. And Koraidon is goofy as hell and thus, adorable. (ALSO TRANS RIGHTS FOR THE FEATHERS)

Oh I am HERE for this analysis. You bring up a lot of great points, especially some beats of the storyline of Arceus being iffy at best. And I agree, Melli did nothing wrong! Sinnoh isn’t my favorite area but I had fun exploring regardless. I think I just vibed with the pokedex being more akin to trying to research them… that said, they could’ve made it less grindy. I also liked walking up and seeing how pokemon would react alone/in groups/toward me. That last bit exists in SwSh and SV to some extent too.

Let’s go is comfy and nostalgic but with a lot of the quality of life implementations of the recent games, plus the style is cute. I think for someone new to Pokemon it’s a great one to suggest imo, since as you said it’s simpler but still close enough what the core games are like.

I’m glad we could talk about this, Pokemon is a long special interest of mine. 😊

Actually curious as to what you like about it better? Both are relatively unconventional, Legends just gripped me more with how the overworld and catching mechanics played out ig? Legit always got super excited when the shiny sound effect played nearby. I did find the “take your pokemon with you in a ball that also acts as a controller” of Let’s Go a cute throwback to like, the Pokewalker and Pocket Pikachu. I picked Eevee ver. cause of course I did.
