He’s complaining that she’s wearing an undershirt - the orange “cleavage blocker” under her white partially unbuttoned shirt - and it is obscuring his view of the buttcrack cleavage he expects to be on display for him.

Because the Greek gods weren’t political, duh. AKA they were white.

Black people existing where white people can see them is just woke propaganda 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

I think it’s a joke about manatees having evolved from the same land-based ancestor as elephants, making them pretty literally “sea elephants”.

I’ll grant you that the article is kind of shite, but as someone who is stuck in a house I’d rather be rid of, it resonated with me. I don’t like my house.

We were first time buyers and ended up with a bit of a lemon, which we’ve put a lot of work into but it doesn’t make it a house we love. We’ve been there for 7 years, we tried to move once and COVID fucked it up, and now we’re stuck in a city suburb neither of us really want to live in anymore, in a house that we’re sick of, with neighbors who are growing increasingly conservative that we would rather see the back of. Despite the fact that we’ve technically got over 100k equity on our house now thanks to value inflation we can’t afford a move because even with a 100k down payment any house we actually want is now 450k+ and our monthly payments with a 7-8% mortgage rate would be 3x what our current payment is.

So like, yay, we have a house and at least that’s good, and we’re secure because our payments are low! But also, I want to fucking leave this place, I hate it, I hate my neighbors, I hate this state, and yeah, we’re fucking stuck because even with all our newfound equity we’re still poor af according to the rules of the game and it fucking sucks.

Just a humble midwestern tea snob 😆

My mom was into True Blood for a little bit when it first came out, probably because she was trying to fill a Buffy-shaped hole in her entertainment and TB was close enough, lol. She bought me the first novel for Christmas one year and I very quickly donated it, it was so fucking bad. She asked me if she could borrow it, got mad when I told her I’d donated it already, and then sad when I told her it would ruin her enjoyment of the show by being complete and utter trash xD

Oh, interesting! I may have to give the series a shot, then - I pretty much hate-read the books, hoping at first that he would get better and then later hoping that someone would just fucking kill him lol

Depends entirely on the tea, but, if black: at home it’s usually hot, with a half to a full teaspoon of raw sugar and a splash of milk. At work it’s usually just hot and straight, no sugar or milk. If green: hot, sometimes honey and lemon, usually just straight. If herbal: hot or chilled depending on the temp outside, no sugar if hot, a bit of sugar if chilled.

I drink a lot of fuckin tea.

Creative entrepreneur. Center screen is for whatever I’m currently working on, be that product design, our website, emailing clients or suppliers, research, whatever. Right screen will have relevant reference material for whatever is on the center screen. Left screen is for music controls/discord, but it’s also a drawing tablet for any time I need to drop the mouse and start hand-drawing for design work, at which point the music and chat move to the right screen.

Amalfi, Italy. My great grandpa was born there, though he immigrated with his family to the US pretty young.

I lean more syndicalist than traditional commie but the hubs is a demsoc and yeah, that’s pretty much how our political conversations go when I get “too feisty” lol

This is cursed

how to delete someone else’s lemmy post

It’s a (very fluffy) trap

No this is NEDerland, named for Ned T Erland. The T stands for Texas. How dare you confuse this good, god fearing American town with that socialist hell hole?!?1one

They’re not being made fun of for being white cishet men. They’re being made fun of for being privileged and whinging about other people now receiving the rights to which they felt they alone were entitled. Being privileged is not something you are born with, it is something granted to you by an unjust society. Crying about others being granted rights as if it will affect them negatively is a choice they are making. This is not about them being cishet white dudes. It is about them choosing to resist progress because it might mean they don’t get treated like the super special kiddies our society has always treated them as.

That you are equating “haha these privileged people are overreacting to minorities no longer having boots on their necks” with “boo hoo, you’re saying all white cishet dudes are bad” tells me all I need to know. I won’t be able to change your mind, so have fun feeling persecuted 💜

You know, I really, really think you’re reading something into this that isn’t there. What, exactly, strikes you as hate here? What in this meme is “demonizing language”? It’s a joke pointing out that privileged people tend to panic and lash out when the people who have historically had fewer privileges than them start receiving help to level the playing field, as if life is some kind of zero-sum game and others being treated better suddenly means they’ll get treated worse. This is a well-recognized truth that applies broadly across privileged populations and has been remarked upon by many people through the years of building civil liberties for minorities of all stripes, and this meme is just poking a bit of fun at it. No one thinks that literally every single cishet white dude is panicking that they’ll be up against the wall if minorities ask to be treated better. I’m really confused at your apparently visceral reaction against this so-called “hate”.

L O fucking L

Pointing out their whinging is hardly hate. Way to be a perfect example of the post, whether you’re a white dude or not.

Thanks, I hate it. That fucking cutesy thumbs down infuriates me every time I think about it and now it’ll be in my brain looking like this forever.
