I hate that I constantly get victimized and have ppl be meanie faces to me, but the moment I do anything I'm a predator whose off to get V-coded in prison.
I kinda just hate being a woman in general, but I hate being a man even more. I don't desire to dominate others or submit, I just want to be an equal.
I just wish I wasn't apart of a group that is constantly a joke to 99% of humanity. I don't even feel like I belong to trans spaces, I don't really get along with most trans ppl.
I feel like I'm literally just a cis woman in my life, but fate decided that my body be 95% cis, well besides a lack of a functioning vagina/uterus.
Damn, I wish I had a vagina.
I hate having a penis.
I need srs so badly.
Also mods, sowwy for shitting up the board.

nah, I was more talking about trying to just be as principled and moral as you can be without being a cuck to feminists or whatever other man hating group exists out there. if all men just acted with integrity and kept themselves in check (granted, a hard thing to do for some), then the tarnished reputation of men as, oh I don't know, HALF THE FUCKING SPECIES wouldn't be so credible.

Trying to think about LLMs as completion engines, from a training set to convention.
Have been looking for a lexicon to describe software patterns for LLM feedback.
The Gang of Four is practical, but the wounds of OOP bleed out all over the pages.
It seems nearly everything can be replaced by things like discriminant unions, or higher-order functions.
And its made much simpler in the process of so doing.
Recalls: https://mishadoff.com/blog/clojure-design-patterns/
Thought to use just this as a source of the lexicon, but it seems so inessential, and in translation.
Do I have to make the leap into category theory to get something that is essential?

>destructive book scanning is already an established practice for digitizing print books
Yes.
>and it's the only way to digitize a book and get a high-quality flat scan
If you got a couple millions to spare for such a project you surely can come up with something. Like (talking out of my ass now) making three photos in very quick succession, first and third projecting a grid onto the pages and then taking the middle photo and use an average of the two grids to flatten the photo digitally. I guess one grid photo is enough if the time between the photos is really short. I also believe that it is not necessary to open the pages 180°, half of that will do if the setup has separate cameras for left and right page. And surely something else than a human hand can turn the pages. ("But Google Books…" - Google is not run by infallible people.)
>and they don't do it with expensive rare antique books
If you process truckloads of books you will make mistakes. What seems an unremarkable mass-produced book can be worth quite a lot if it is a rare edition (or indeed unique because a famous person put some comments into it).

>>33959
>there now exists tech that corrects for that and allows you to scan non-destructively. The same company that Anthropic is relying on offers that but it's more expensive to do it.
Figures. I wonder how much of the price difference is functional pricing.

there are two positions one can take on the issue of intellectual property, either you believe in it or you don't. either information is a material resource that can be governed and owned, or information is an immaterial resource that cannot be governed nor owned.

you can't criticize software vendors for restricting access to their source code and invoking intellectual property law to sue people who copy it, and then turn around and invent a copyleft license so you can do the exact same thing. you can't copy the source code from unix and emacs and violate their license to write unauthorized clones and then lock those clones behind your own license to stop others from doing whatever they want with "your" code.

words are not things and language is a means, not an end. the significance of a legal document is not in the text itself but in how the text is interpreted and enforced in a court of law. permissive licenses such as the bsd license can effectively be thought of public domain licenses because they contain no enforceable non-trivial restrictions that could conceivably ever warrant an actual court case, but copyleft licenses like the gpl can and have been involved in real courtroom cases and any civil litigation in any courtroom requires a specific plaintiff, and it cannot be "the people" as in a criminal case filed by the state. the plaintiffs in gpl violation cases are typically non-profit organizations like the free software foundation or the software freedom law center who act as legal representatives for one or more of the developers, and which developers get to be constituents and potential beneficiaries in the lawsuit is decided entirely at the discretion of whomever happens to be in the room when the lawsuit is first filed.

to illustrate the real-world ramifications of this, consider the busybox lawsuits filed against various companies by busybox developers erick anderson and rob landley represented by the software freedom law center. the cases were settled for undisclosed sums and these two developers got paid off, but none of the other hundreds of contributors to the busybox project, including the original authors bruce perens and dave cinege, were represented or given a share of the settlement or even contacted by the plaintiffs. so in practice, enforcement of the gpl does not really represent the open source community and all the contributors to a particular project, it only represents the tiny fraction of contributPost too long.

coherence is overrated and the net practical result is to enforce the sharing of code, which is a net good on the whole. (and a good way to catch out the laziest corporate thieves.)
a less fundamental but greater irony with the GPL is that for all the anticapitalist posturing of its /leftypol/ proponents and the anti-corpo posturing of its /g/ proponents, it's a fairly obvious tool of a corporate strategy known as "commoditising your complement"

what this means is: making services necessary for your product to succeed cheap, ideally free, and unprofitable, to cut off any threats to your business model. if you're google, for example, you don't want novell or microsoft to be able to squeeze you upstream by ripping you off on server operating systems, so you fund linux. now the server market is highly competitive (well, really, standardised on the free offering) and that threat is dealt with. similarly, they fund apache. for a non FLOSS example, microsoft helped PC clone manufacturers make IBM compatible PCs so that the PC market was a competitive commodity one where nobody made any money, while MS raked in profits selling DOS/Windows, an essential part of the whole system but the one where they held a monopoly.

>>33971
it's only partially successful. look at the dead-end that is the open source components of Mac OS, or google's general EEE approach to web standards even though chromium is nominally open.

>>33970
>You mean you're against weaponizing these systems against the capitalists benefiting off of them?

but it doesn't do that at all. red hat makes billions off of linux and locked the rhel source code behind a paywall. google appropriated linux to build a proprietary DRM-infested mobile os ecosystem worth trillions of dollars. with software as a service corporations can exploit linux by simply moving the all of the software's functionality to the server side and only releasing source code for the useless client application, and now with ai corporations can simply run gpl source code through an LLM to generate a mutated reproduction that is impossible to distinguish from a clean room implementation. what linux gets from big tech in exchange for all of this is pennies on the dollar, some meager financial donations and some device drivers with proprietary firmware blobs. all of the major corporate donors to the linux foundation are egregious gpl violators but nobody says or does anything about that, because money.

the gpl hasn't protected the linux commons from corporate exploitation or influence; on the contrary it has necessitated it - if linux were permissively licensed corporations could have simply forked the codebase without having any interaction with the linux developer community at all, just as apple did with freebsd. but since they could not do that, they just used their tremendous wealth and political maneuvering to inflitrate the linux community and commandeer it from within, now linux is essentially a corporate product and almost all of its developers are employees of big tech companies. meanwhile freebsd is still freebsd, still a volunteer community project without any big tech corporations compelling them to shove things like ai and age verification down their users throats. yeah it will never have the level of hardware support that linux has, but if you want to trade freedom and openness for better hardware support then you might as well just run fucking windows.

and even if what you were saying were true, even if the gpl were an effective "weapon" for smashing the capitalist regime and big tech corporations could not exploit linux to make trillions of dollars, it would still be an absurd double standard to treat source code as part of the public commons in one instance but then treat it as Post too long.

Seems like there's a question of architecture and governance.
Both of which are probably more important than the license.

Why is that the fault of GPL specifically and not investors and the fbi seeing the start of the exodus towards linux and taking control of it in advance?

Pictured: Huntington’s retarded “Clash of Civilizations” thesis, mapped

Serious question. By all cultural, economical and political metrics, Latin America is part of the western world and, dare I say, far more western than many European countries and all of East Asia. Let’s start with the basics.

  1. Majority religion in the region is Christianity across all Latin American countries, with Protestant and Catholics being the two biggest denominations there.

  2. All Latin American countries have an European language as the primary language and lingua Franca. Mostly Spanish, but Portuguese in Brazil’s case, and (tentatively FWIW) French in the cases of the French Guyana and Haiti, with said languages being the sole official or co-official language in their country.

  3. All Latin American countries have been republics for much longer than many European states today

  4. With the exception of Brazil which broke ties with the kingdom of Portugal by establishing its own monarchy, all former Spanish colonies waged revolutionary wars of independence modelled after the American and French bourgeois revolutions, and installed in place republican governments modelled after enlightenment principles

  5. Latin American cultures are heavily based on European cultures. Sure, it’s specifically Iberian, but decades of European immigration has brought in influences from other parts of Europe like Italy and Northern Europe. Of course there are African and indigenous influences too, but ultimately LatAm cultures are heavily derivative of European ones, as indicated by both language and religion.

  6. For much of its history, Latin American countries have rarely if ever been involved with Africa and Asia, instead having been more heavily involved in western affairs, of which Latin America’s ones are part of.

The entirety of western hemisphere as well as oceania, ALL of europe from Portugal to Urals (except Bosnia and Albania), and the zionist settler colony in Palestine are western


Western = White or White adjacent judeochristian

If you define the West as a cultural sphere I can see it but many just use "the west" as a shorthand for the political bloc around the USA and NATO along with some european and asian powers like Germany and Japan. If thats the case I'd reckon Central and South America are more of a free for all between Milei tier puppets, Maoist guerillas and everything in between.

Good book on Jesus’ historicity, analysing not just every argument on the historical Christ but also giving a holistic assessment on how Christianity likely came to be, with a vigorous reference section. If you don’t want to buy it on Amazon, it’s available at z-library (link not given to avoid piracy charges).

Inb4:
>Muh Adam Green
>Muh Bart Ehrman
>Muh consensus
>Muh Christophobia

Yadda yadda, I know who Adam Green is, about the Ehrman talking point, and how this subject can be touchy to both Christcuck and e-crusader secularised midwits here, so I’ll be blunt here:

  • Adam Green’s background doesn’t invalidate his broader points on Christianity, the Bible, and Jesus Christ’s existence

  • The “consensus” doesn’t mean much since it’s mostly made up of Christians and Christian-sympathisers who engage in confirmation bias and gatekeeping to discourage any critical opinion on the historical Christ theory. Given that Ehrman himself relies on this very unreliable consensus for his book on Jesus’ historicity

  • Not believing in Jesus’ existence as a historical figure isn’t anti-Christian as many non-mainstream Christian sects like the early Church-era marcionites and gnostics assert the notion of a mythical non-physical Christ. On the top of that, much of Judaism (and by extension Zionism) rests on the notion of the Old Testament as being 100% true and historically accurate text, whilst Islamic doctrine holds the existence of a historical Christ. So by negating the existence of a historical Christ, and by extension undermining the value of the Old Testament as a historical text, Christianity and Islam and Judaism are effectively undermined

>Cites books that pushes the myth that Jesus was a real figure
Ok boomer

This sort of thing always makes me think of an old Soviet joke that goes like this:

Radio Yerevan was asked: "Is it true that comrade cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was given a car in Moscow during the celebrations?"

The Armenian Radio answers: "In principle yes, but it was not in Moscow, rather in Kiev, and it was not a car, but a bike, and it was not comrade cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, but comrade highschool teacher Gagarin and his first name was not Yuri, but Leonid…and it was not given to him, but stolen from him…but in principle, yes."

This is what I think about when people talk about "Was Jesus a historical figure?" Well, in principle, yes. But he wasn't born when he was supposed to be born, and he didn't do most of the things that are attributed to him, and his name was not Jesus, but apart from being different in every particular…in principle, yes he existed."

And of course you can do this with way more people than just Jesus. Was King Arthur a historical figure? In principle, yes. Now his name wasn't Arthur and he wasn't english and he lived in a different castle and he wasn't king of the britons and he was actually a conglomeration of different warlords from different eras and areas…but apart from that, yes, Arthur was real.

there's a difference between "believing in Christ" (the anointed one of the christian religion who saves redeems all souls who come to him from their sins) and recognizing the evidence of a historical jesus, a controversial political figure executed by pontius pilate by demand of the pharisees in Jersualem on passover about 2004-2014 years ago, around whom the Christian religion eventually formed

I definitely don't want to be a man, but something keeps me from fully feeling like a woman. I don't feel any solidarity or strong connection to men or women; I see them as alien to me and mired in an unnecessary idpol. I feel uncomfortable when I have to identify my gender. It's like I'm a third gender or something. Is this normal and will it go away with time? I've been on HRT for a little over half a year, obviously boymoding.

Break free from the prison of the binary. Just because you don't desire a close relationship with manhood doesn't mean you necessarily have to with womanhood, especially if you don't feel it.
>I see them as alien to me and mired in an unnecessary idpol
I'm in agreement with this sentiment, read more about non-binary.
>I've been on HRT for a little over half a year
Maybe you're subconsciously aiming for a middle road already, to 'even out' so to speak? There are numerous examples of third gender expressions; some fitting examples I would highlight are 'neutrois' (which is defined as aiming for gender neutrality, lessening masc/fem extremes in one expression) and 'androgye' (aiming for a combined mix of masc/fem extremes in one expression)
In musical subcultures ones sees neutrois on greater occasion in techno contexts scenes and androgyne in goth

>Maybe you're subconsciously aiming for a middle road already, to 'even out' so to speak?

If I had to choose a gender, I'd prefer demigirl. But that all sounds fucking ridiculous, and I hate woke schizophrenia with a million genders. Although tbf androgyny has ancient roots and mythology, so LARPing an androgyne is not so shameful, maybe even good.

Just rewatched Castaway. I had forgotten the opening of the film and how it's set during the privatization of Russia. The sculptor lady's husband is a cowboy LARPing businesschud living in Moscow and two-timing his wife with a Russian "girlfriend" i.e. taking advantage of impoverished locals with his foreign money. Tom Hanks is an asshole consultant whose first scene is yelling at a warehouse full of workers they aren't being efficient enough. The entire atmosphere is really grim and ugly.

Despues del partido contra Egipto cualquier tipo de simpatia entre el pueblo que pudiera tener argentina en medio oriente y muchas partes del mundo directamente se evaporó.
Y por otro lado, llevan años queriendo pintar al pais como un pais racista, colonialista y hasta settler-imperialista por no tener negros en su seleccion o por sesgos historicos terribles que los anglosajones liberales y progres se tragan como bobos.

Argentina is a Latin American country ergo it’s a western country, so it can’t align “against the west” since it would mean having to align against itself.

The Worldwide Maoist Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution in the future Global USSR (All the SSRs and SFSRs of the future Global USSR are shown in the Map I posted) will flatten the Socially Constructed Reactionary Gender Binary, with all Women forced to have extremely short hair (Pixie cut or shorter, with a Shaved head being the most Historically Progressive), and Dresses/Skirts and Makeup/Lipstick banned in order to liberate Women from the chains of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity, while all Western Business Suits and Traditional Religious Clothing are banned as well with everyone wearing Mandatory Mao Suits. The Worldwide flattening of the Reactionary Gender Binary will ironically cause a noticeable Global decline in Transgenders (less Men will desire to become Women once the Aesthetics of Bourgeois Femininity such as Long Hair, Dresses/Skirts, Makeup/Lipstick, are banned for Women) in the aftermath of the Global Destruction of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity, though Sex Changes will still be Free and Legal to anyone who wants one, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️ 💇‍♀️👩‍🦲!

Additionally, any Woman who keeps her Hair longer then a Pixie cut (a Very Short Bob cut “might” be tolerated only if it is not a millimeter below the Chin, but I could change my mind on this very quickly, so it would be strongly advised that all Women keep their Hair no longer then a Pixie cut), wears a Dress/Skirt, or uses Makeup/Lipstick, will have her Head completely Shaved by the Female (mostly Lesbian) International Red Guards, who will march her through the streets wearing a Dunce Cap, force her to attend Struggle Sessions, and put her in a Re-Education Camp, where she will be taught how to become a Liberated Socialist Woman and embrace the Immortal Science of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the Highest Stage of Marxism, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️ 💇‍♀️👩‍🦲!

When a Woman gets her Hair Chopped/Shaved off She is symbolically breaking the Chains of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity that Long Hair on Women symbolizes in the Patriarchal Superstructure of the modern Capitalist and historical Feudal Modes of Production (then it would have been called Aristocratic Femininity), thus meaning that Forcing Women to have extremely Short Hair (Pixie cut or shorter, with a Shaved head being the most Historically Progressive), along with banning Dresses/Skirts and Makeup/Lipstick and making everyone wear Mandatory Mao suits is the only way to Flatten the Reactionary Patriarchal Gender Binary anPost too long.

Sometimes I get dysphoria, but it's rare and not "that" bad. I would push le button without hesitation, but I don't hate my body. I feel I can't fit in with either cis or trans people.

Does it ever make you uncomfortable when people treat you like a man?

>>9605
If you are trans you should not let your body masculinize and get on hrt as soon as possible. Do not listen to anyone who tells you to rep, they want you to kill yourself.
If you’re non binary there’s no harm in microdosing while you figure yourself out, see if you like it and if you figure you’re not trans just throw it away.

Maybe it's a phase
Idk recently I've been fantasizing of wearing a maids outfit, not even ina sexual way, just like my heart is being weighed down and wearing it would take that weight off.
I then shake back to guy, feeling uncomfortable, weird, despair about the clash

Idk even understand this gender stuff
Everytime I think about the girl thing, I think of something that's exclusive to one gender, but then like why?
The spectrum is more blurred than I thought so I feel even more confused :/

Hello, guy who is discovering his bisexuality here. I’m into feminine guys and consider myself dom, but I also want to suck dick. Is that interpreted as a submissive act? I see it as an act of appreciation and a good looking dick looks like something I want to put in my mouth. Would subs interpret this as a contradiction and no longer see me as dom? Or is this highly individualistic with no general tendency to speak of? I’m likely very biased by a straight viewpoint, so I was wondering.

I mean, I would guess (or rather hope) that queer spaces are not bound to strict uniform interpretations like heteros are. But I have no experiences in queer spaces, so I don't know. I will just do it any see how they respond.

Only unenlightened simpletons think oral is inherently submissive, or inherently dominant for that matter.

Suck with vigor. Pin their hands as you take them in your mouth, in case they need a reminder of who's in charge.

Hi OP. You need to learn what a dom is! And, possibly, a dom-leaning switch (but nothing you said there suggests that).

0) TALK TO YOUR BOY. NOT US.
You were correct when you said: "Or is this highly individualistic with no general tendency to speak of?"

1) I have heard, only online fwiw, of some subs not liking a dom who does things they see as weak. Meanwhile, my sub who is my literal furniture didn't bat an eye when I talked about my sub side. They might actually dom me at an event later in the month! It's down to taste, and what people want out of a sub/dom relationship.

2) You can dom from the bottom, and sub from the top. Someone at an event I couldn't make it to was (consentually) demanding her slave to whack her with floggers. You can absolutely dom your shy boi while sucking his dick. You can even flick his balls if he likes pain! There's lots of power you have there. There is nothing necessarily non-dom about taking what you want and putting it where you want. Imagine a femdom doing the same, if that helps.

3) You can be a dom most of the time and a sub sometimes! Last night I talked to two dom-leaning switches who are dom enough kidnap a motherfucker. Then I watched them both kneel over and take impact to the ass. Switching is great! And my current sub, who dolls up and gets used as a piece of furniture, doesn't give a fuck that I do sub stuff too.

>I’m likely very biased by a straight viewpoint, so I was wondering.

I'd go further and say it's a heteronormaive patriarchal viewpoint - the mainstream one. The one that makes guys scared to talk about their feelings until they go kill themselves. The one that makes grown men say that washing the crack of your ass is gay. It's borderline Fascist ideology (big F), taking a spiritualist hypermasculinity rather than a material perspective on masculinity.

No that you have a Republican government in the US and southern US states took the opportunity to go full puritan didn't also translate to the legislative or corporate stipulations of the international bourgeoisie, of which is still very, very liberal (here is where you let out a sigh of great relief!)

>>9956
  1. The distinction between the national and international bourgeoisie is a false one, certainly in the first world.
  2. Many of the companies that have either outright bankrolled or at-least bent the knee to Trump are, even in the inane "national vs international" framing, international. (the famously US-national FAANG, Mastercard and Toyota for example.)
  3. The current reactionary wave is distinct in many key ways from mere puritanism, most notably in its total abandonment of any and all moral standards and their substitution with (a) loyalty to specific personalities or (b) willingness to hurt the outgroup, both absent any serious external reference point. (whereas old-style types had the bible.)
  4. The UK has had a reactionary turn under a nominally centre-left liberal government (elected before Trump) that makes US republican actions look like the DSA jazz hands caucus. Just because you're a fat yankee doesn't mean you should presume and project that onto everyone else. (Here is where you stuff another McTriple into your gullet!)

>>9957
Glad you agree with the central point then that
· cishet men are not the imperialist bourgeoisie
· the incessant internal scissioning in LGBTQ is a PsyOp

Figured I made a thread to share our romantic experiences – or lack of thereof, – opinions, wishes and advice. That is part of the whole LGBT experience besides the sex and gender.

I reached mid 20s with barely any experience, autism made sure of that. Kissed a drunk lesbian once, I don't even think I looked that cute for a guy in his 20s, so I was honored more than anything. Broke up a friendship with a trans girl after some hasty choices, but she was crazy anyways. Now focusing on friends, making and deepening them.

Wish I had a man I understood and was understood by, someone light-hearted and whimsical to have fun with on the short time I have here on Earth. Femboy-ish ig, not masculine, but takes care of himself, with a touch of femininity to him. Impartial on sex, willing to do it, might be fun even.

One thing I like is the idea of relations as temporary, serial monogamy if you will. I'm all for loyalty while in a relation, but that doesn't necessarily mean it must be forever and ever. People change, why shouldn't their relations? Admittedly I do see the romance in a lifelong relation, sticking with someone and changing together with them. Besides looking for a new partner every x amount of years sounds exhausting.

But what if I regret leaving? I’ll never be able to come back. I have no other friends or anything.

>>9906
Well, that is scary yeah, does it have to be a permanent decision though? You could do long distance with your girlfriend and tell your mom "I love you mom but I can't find a job, I feel like I need to try find myself in the city", hopefully she will understand and agree you can come back and live with her again if it doesn't work out. Same with your friends, just tell them why you need to move away and offer to hang out with them online or come over sometimes to see them, or offer them to come stay with you in the big city and see the sights.

Most of my friends have moved away and yeah we don't see each other as much as we used to be we still do hang out when they're around or hang out online and play games, I'm gonna go on a trip to Japan next year with my school friend who moved away years ago.

Maybe if you set yourself up in the city, and tell your girlfriend how much better it is, that might be enough to convince her to leave her mom and come live with you.

Even if you do lose contact with mom and girlfriend and friends, you can make new friends in the big city, go to like leftist groups or LGBT orgs and so on.

Oh sorry, I didn't see you meant you have no other friends. Well that should make it an even easier decision to leave then!

You can't let your girlfriend tie you down somewhere that you're miserable. You have to make your own choices and she can make hers. Maybe deep down she is happy where she is, some people prefer what they know even if it sucks than trying anything new because they couldn't handle change. You can only offer other people a little leg up in their own lives, you can't totally put yours on hold for them.

As an example, I've been living with my BF for 18 months, we wanted to buy a house together but he hasn't found a job in all this time, and I don't think he's been trying very hard to get one most of the time, whereas I've been working flat out to save up and advance my career. I desperately want to buy a house but he wanted us to wait until he had money coming in so he could go on the mortgage, well, I waited too long already for that to happen, so now I'm just buying a house on my own. He can come and live with me but I'm not going to wait forever just because he wanted to do it together. He doesn't really like the house I've picked either but I love it, and I'm the one paying so I'm going to make the decision. Like I said earlier, even though we love each other, my need to buy a house doesn't mean as much to him as it does to me. His feelings about the house don't matter to me as much as mine do. That's just life. Maybe it will give him an impetus to change, maybe not, either way I have to do what will make ME happy.

People have broken up with me for the same reason, because I wasn't doing what they needed me to do, and of course it was crushing at the time, but you know what? I got better, and it was part of what encouraged me to make changes to get me where I am now.

What are some genuinely good phones that do not shit the bed after 3 years, and without software updates shitting it's functionality? I've been stuck with Samsung, falling for propoganda that it's long-lasting when in reality they've just added some new pointless OS updates that makes it slower to use.

just bite the bullet and buy a used flagship from 2024 or 2025, it doesnt matter which brand they all fucking suck

look at flagship phones from a few years ago and what custom ROMS are available for them. Go with whichever one works best with whatever ROM you want to use. The only way to get more and longer functionality from your old phone is custom ROMS so if that's what you're going for you want to base your phone purchase off that. Specs for phones in the last few years have gotten crazy, and with how much memory and shit costs right now those phones will still be usable well into the future on a custom ROM

So, i realized i want to be a mom a while ago, which had me crying a lot for days til i spoke to a therapist, and my endocrinologist.

And so i had to temporarily stop HRT and i feel like i'm dying, currently in a state of induced menopause for a couple of months more and my god, the cold sweats, my throat closes because of the anxiety, depersonalization and disociation makes it hard to do anything besides bedrotting and playing fast paced shooters that let me keep my brain in a constant state of focus in such tasks

and i swear to god, the only thing keeping me from letting me fall apart right now, since my mother decided to stop talking to me because i refused to boymode for her, it's my boyfriend and our future together raising our children in Spain and having them visit their grandparents in México- which hopefully won't go to hell because my brother's gen decide to elect a right winger as president of México to fuck everything up and sell everything to Israel and the US.

In Double Agent you can betray the U.S. government, and I think in later Splinter Cells Fisher gets betrayed by the government. Chaos Theory and earlier Splinter Cell plots were very run of the mill post 2001 patriotism iirc.

yes, and more specifically, the conditions that allow that person to do those things with impunity. in a world with strong institutions, for example, linus would've long ago been replaced by an institution, much like the average private sector petty tyrant

I don't see why people see writing code as wasting time, unless you never liked programming in the first place. I've never ever thought of writing music as a waste of time, because I enjoy the whole process, even if it gets frustrating at times. But it's what makes it worthwhile. Same with programming. I really don't get this hype for making a bot do everything for you unless you hated doing it.

There's this girl at my work who I really wanna cuddle up with/bang, she's like a recent graduate student or something, at first she was really shy but gotten more friendly over time. She's really tall and I kinda get the vibe she might be a transgirl, not like I can just ask obviously, or not like it really matters, but I feel fantasizing about fucking her cute ass. I wanna get her to warm up with me more and get more comfortable with each other.

She's clearly nerdy and shy which gets me going. She comes in and makes tea while wearing neon blue headphones sometimes and is oblivious. I like watching her bend over the copy machine.

Anyways, I'm pretty sure it would be a bad idea to actually hit on her, I really like this job and I'm 33 (though young looking) and she's like in her early 20s I think so I don't wanna get fired for being a groomer or whatever. Plus I just don't wanna make things awkward in general or make her uncomfortable at work.

What should I do anons? Other than furiously jerk off thinking about her? Should I embrace my chaser urges? What if she likes me too?

While being a stupid bi moid, I've always been drawn to a very androgynous look because of a certain aversion to masculinity and many things associated with it - I'm very proud of my long hair, and I know that if I ever get a receding hairline, It'll be either Turkey or the rope due to body dysmorphia. One of the best experiences of my life was being accidentally misgendered and hit on by a drunk alt lesbian. The whole general male pickup culture, its toxicity, and the way it objectifies the other person really disgusted me - not to mention that most of the foids, and people in general, seemed like goycattle not worth paying attention to and devoid of any interests.

About a year ago, I met a older than me twink at a philosophy group at uni. He also had an andro appearance, we shared a similarly complex view of gender, he was also bi and a bottom (it wasn't hard to figure out) - he studied something related to HR, and I started to appreciate his genuine, even a little naive, woke stance, especially compared to the cynicism that had built up in me. As time went on, I started to like him more and more and wanted to spend as much time with him as possible; I even waited in places where I knew he would be passing by, hoping to bump into him *by chance*. At some point, I realized that I was romantically attracted to him.

This is a post in style of "i am a sad lonely faggot, here's some embarrassing information about me, please dont bully me with it", but honestly, I've never had any experience with picking up or flirting. So I feel pathetic because I can't even convey to him that I like him. I've known him for a year - we even ride the same train home from our philosophy group - but I don't know how to subtly let him know how much I want to fuck him and give him a blowjob. I know my problem is just me being a pathetic loser, but how the fuck do I pick up a theymab woke twink?

People always complain about men doing this but somehow they turn a blind eye to women doing the same thing

When will this automisandry shit ever end?

You’re doing the same thing that you complain about:

You’re mainly attracted to the feminine features though.

>>9077
It’s not exactly heterosexual. It’s bisexuality with straight inclination

>mascformasc retards

More proof that /lgbt/ is highly gynophilic

Have you tried to just talk?

Doesn’t anyone have any ideas on writing some fanfiction stories with some good smut mixed in with adventure?

>>3625
I think those stories are just more meant to be blowing off steam rather than actual serious action adventure plot line

> 99% of romance in fiction is heterosexual, or on the internet 12 year old moe-loli garbage.

Wrong on the second half. Most of it is genderswapped versions of male MCs dating a male OC or male OCs dating female OCs

> Ironically when there is a genuinely decent M/M ship to be found its done like garbage.

>Probably the worst is Haku x Naruto… That shit could be done well, but every fic that has a yaoi pairing of the two (and not rule 63) ends up having a really shitting Master-Servant relation or other obnoxious shite.


>TL;DR: Its not the gayness that's the issue, its how obnoxious it - and the Fujos who make it - are.


A lot of yaoi fanfiction seems to wanna make the bottom male always a feminized pretty boy.

>>4062
Can you show me where this happens?
I am a cishet male who is into yaoi fanfiction but I never romanticize or obsess over male bonding in real life

What I do see is a lot of glamorization of yuri and shipping of real life female characters in erotic works.

Remember Drake & Josh and Ned’s Declassified Survival Guide? Great stuff. How about All That? Or the Amanda Show?

Tbh I like the teen cartoons better.
Kim Possible,Sanny Phantom, Total Drama Island, etc

Also, anime in The late 1990s/early 2000s was meh. The only real good ones were Naruto, Bleach, Hikaru No Go,and Once Piece.


Dragonball as a franchise I tried to follow the plot line but I always got bored. I don’t get the appeal of the shows as plot lines
