I’m all for banning people like that, personally. Especially if they’re not even bothering to contribute anything themselves.

Someone that goes through a community that shares random music, dutifully downvoting everything they personally don’t like is probably a self centred asshole. And someone that wouldn’t be pleasant to have around commenting anyway.

Adult Star Wars fans when kids try to enjoy the movie with dog people, living teddy bears and elite troopers that can’t shoot straight.

Zoomer humour.

Did Trump actually have any concrete plans for the economy or did he just look “unbeatable” because he said “I’ll make eggs cheap and great again! Very bigly!” jerks off two dicks

I mean, I guess that’s an unbeatable platform if you’re a nation of illiterate bigots that swap reason for blind fanaticism.

I need to watch this show. I’ve watched Hazbin Hotel but not this one. And this Loona character seems fucking cool.

Yeah, they say that now after voting in the christian nationalist bigots. Now is the time when they should stop focusing on these issues, right. How convenient.

This guy is so behind the curb. Doesn’t he know that the latest fad is NFTs and blockchain AI?

Don’t count your chickens just yet. That recent ruling by the UK supreme court came under the UK’s so called “centre-left” party’s watch. Along with their prime minister shamelessly agreeing with it.

These people (politicians) are not to be fucking trusted until they’ve proven they can be trusted. If left / progressive / liberal governments around the world were actually effective at doing anything other than sitting with their thumbs up their asses and collecting bloated paychecks (and bribes / donations), we wouldn’t be seeing this rise of the right wing in the first place.

I would suggest waiting just a little longer to see if these people are actually legit or if they’re planning on ‘fighting’ the right wing by doing exactly what the right wing wants.

Lois Lane looking like the Superman the Animated Series version of Lois. I love it. Really hoping that we get an actually capable and kick ass version of Lois this time. My biggest complaint about live action Superman movies so far is that Lois always gets treated a little too much like a damsel in distress. Meanwhile she was telling Superman to F off and that she doesn’t need a man to help her back in the 1940s Fleischer cartoons already (watch the mouth breathers and “life long fans” all complain about Superman being turned woke if we get a version of Lois that actually has a spine).

I’m not saying that she needs to be a hardcore man hater or something, Superman and Lois are one of my all time favourite fictional couples. I’m just saying that she’s a lot more than just Superman’s girlfriend and should be treated as such.

One of my favourite scenes in Superman the Animated Series is when Lois gets kidnapped by some douche who then tries to get a little touchy freely. And off camera you hear the sound of someone getting beat up, followed by Lois saying “my daddy was a black belt.”

Yay, more She-Ra memes. Some time soon I plan on doing a rewatch and maybe some discussion can get added to this community as well.

I used to use “man” in a gender neutral way a lot. Like “hey man” or “what’s up man”. Probably a '90s kid thing. But here’s the thing, it’s not about how I feel about the word. It’s about how the person getting called that word feels about it. So I’ve made a conscious effort to stop using it. It’s really not difficult to not be a selfish asshole.

These days, the only person I still say “hey man” to is my weed guy.

they encourage a seemingly mainstream version of masculinity

Ah yes, the current mainstream version of masculinity that totally isn’t layered with bigoted ideologies. Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate must be seething that these neo nazis are turning masculinity into a bad dark joke that promotes hatred for women, LGBTQ+ people and even non white people under the guise of being anti woke.

Yup. Trump and co haven’t been sneaky and deceptive. They’ve been loud and clear this whole time. These voters weren’t tricked. They voted for their trans neighbours to be dehumanized and made to suffer. They voted for their wives and mothers and daughters to be controlled and owned. They voted for their workforce to be plucked off the street by masked government grunts and shipped to a maximum security prison in another country for life. Personally, I would never be able to look this fucking scum in the eyes again without my hatred of them being visible.

That’s one of the infuriating things about these people. They’ll just make up BS that makes Trump seem reasonable. Trump does this English only thing, and now suddenly non-english truck drivers causing accidents is a thing, something that’s been a problem all along and thank Jesus he’s finally fixing it. Even though this was never actually a real issue that anyone even imagined before today.

Thank you. Your acceptance really does mean a lot 💜 Don’t let anyone make you think you’re any less than an awesome person because it would be lies.

And yeah, at least it doesn’t seem to be a constant problem in every thread. There definitely has been a noticeable little wave of it in the last couple of days though. Maybe that’s a good sign in a way though. Means that the community is picking up steam and showing up in c/all more often. I just hope it doesn’t become too much.

I think that unfortunately no amount of tweaking the sidebar or rules will help. People who come here and don’t realise the rules are probably jumping straight into individual threads from c/all and reacting without ever even visiting the front page of this community. You would hope that the fact the community is literally called “Women’s Stuff” would be enough to make these people reconsider jumping in to attack but here we are. I have a feeling that this is what every women-centric community has had to face on this platform so far.

Personally, it’s something that makes me still feel hesitant about chipping in with anything here, even though you’ve said non-binary people are welcome. Because there’s already enough people invading here and warping the purpose of this community, and it’s still early days with not enough activity from women yet as it is.

You’ve got something good going here though. And something that Lemmy needs. So I hope that you keep fighting off the riff raff and building this place up. Even just as a lurker, thank you for this space where I can read some good conversations with healthy insights (and pick up tips on dealing with sunscreen woes lol). It is highly appreciated.

Oh no! Someone is posting content that isn’t theirs on the content aggregator platform! Can you imagine? What is happening to this world?

Just listened to the tracks ‘Unspoken’ and ‘Running Red’. This definitely has new obsession potential for me. Thanks very much for pointing me towards these guys.

Fuck yeah this is cool. We actually need more female vocalists doing the old school falsetto style (although not really falsetto in this case, I guess).

Holy shit, this is wild. I like. A lot. Definitely introducing this to my rotation of music, thanks!
