BREAKING: PinkNews refuses to cover trans issues on the basis it jeopardises ad revenue and is "contentious".
  • There's Xtra, it's Canada based but it covers some American stuff too, and it doesn't shy away from trans issues.

  • Mike Pondsmith enjoyers, what implants would you consider IRL?
  • Kiroshi cyberoptics. I feel like people really sleep on how useful super eyes would be.

  • Games that would be better without any dialogue
  • Borderlands, I've never wanted a skip dialogue button more than in Borderlands 3.

  • Forget it V, she is not into girls.
  • Panam and Kerry should have been bi and I'll die on that hill.

    The straights can keep River though.

  • Hexbears who listen to Rise Against, what's your favorite song by them?
  • For me it's probably "Behind Closed Doors", don't really know why, just always liked it. Honourable mention is "State of the Union" for rewiring my 8 year old brain when I first heard it.

    I honestly credit this band for turning me into a leftist.

  • Do you guys have any incels you know personally?
  • I didn't really know him personally, but while I was doing a social worker program in college this guy started going on an incel rant in class.

    The class was about internalized oppression and we were in the unit on internalized misogyny, and he just started going off about how women don't actually want nice guys and how they want the hot rich guys who are abusive.

    He had a lot of other really problematic views, my friends and I still wonder why he joined the program to begin with.

  • 3 Arrows symbol - socdem trash or actually good?
  • Definitely socdem trash, but I know a lot of well meaning early commies who have stuff with it on it because they only know it as antifascism. Hell when I was younger I got it tattooed on myself for that reason (still debating covering it with something else, ideas welcome).

    It's one of those things where the meaning has shifted somewhat over time I think, but I still think it should be moved away from.

  • Any fellow black coffee drinkers here? What made you come over to the dark side (pun intended)?
  • For a time as a high schooler, I wanted to seem more interesting than other people so I drank it black. Honestly I kinda hated it, and went back to drinking it with cream and sugar, but that was more because I was drinking Tim Hortons.

    Once my dad started showing me how to make actual good coffee with good beans, I never went back. Even iced coffee I prefer black most of the time.

  • 20 Minutes of Dragon Age: the Veilguard Gameplay (If anyone has questions about the game feel free to ask me)
  • I'm definitely cautiously optimistic, so far I've liked what I've seen. I'm also not too torn up over the loss of the CRPG elements because we aren't lacking for really good CRPGs anymore.

  • This has been bothering me since 2020. Millennials and Zoomers on Hexbear: without googling, do you know who Alfred E. Neuman is?
  • I know who Alfred E. Neuman is and I'm 28. I've even still got some old issues of mad magazine lying around my house.

  • Officially the coolest Harry drip
  • This is actually extremely close to how I dress irl.

  • Sunday Was Gaming Day: What Are You Playing Weekly Thread
  • Finally picked up Signalis, been enjoying it alot but I'm finding inventory management to be pretty tedious in it, even with updated inventory. I can't imagine how worse it was on release, only having six slots and having the flashlight take up one those slots.

  • WHAT THE FUCK IS THE CHRISTIAN TRINITY
  • Celery, onion, and green bell pepper.

  • I just found my first grey hairs and now I'm freaking out
  • My mum had gone fully gray before thirty, and I've actually always been really excited that it could happen to me. Unfortunately I'm 27 and only have a small streak.

  • The Appeal Of Older Graphics
  • This guy's channel is such good vibes.

  • what's a silly way you almost died?
  • Tried to walk across a small frozen stream in the middle of the woods when I was like 8-10 years old, fell through and got sucked into the mud.

    Thankfully my cousin was there to pull me out but it took like 5ish minutes to fully get me out. Both of my boots were stuck in the mud and came off my feet as I was pulled out.

    We then had to walk back to my cousins house, which was like 20 minutes of walking away, through the woods in like a foot of snow. By the time we made it back I was verging on frostbite. So maybe not fully near death but definitely bad.

  • How do others feel about the use of the pink triangle as a symbol of queer pride?
  • That's basically how I see it too, like I'm not wearing it in the same way that I wear a flag pin.

    The triangle is there more as a remembrance or a "fuck you" sort of thing.

  • How do others feel about the use of the pink triangle as a symbol of queer pride?

    This is a question primarily for the queer comrades but of course any of yall can comment.

    Recently I saw some criticism of the symbol's use because so few of those who wear it ever had to actually experience it.

    Personally I wear it on my jacket, and have worn it for several years. I don't think I'll remove it, but I was curious about other people's thoughts.

    When do you like to eat the banana?
  • The only one I wouldn't eat is number 1, that green and its gonna be too hard. Otherwise there's never a time when I don't want to eat a banana.

  • [Atrophy:Angel] by [fallingwithscissors]

    Came across this about a month ago and so glad I did, absolutely some of the best grindcore/breakcore that I've heard in a long time. All their stuff is free to download from bandcamp as well.

    Propagandhi - Cop Just Out of Frame

    Been thinking about this song a lot since what happened with Aaron Bushnell, thought I'd share it.
