tiefling , (edited ) to Ask Lemmy in How far in advance do you usually plan vacations?

I planned my end of July weekend vacation around February. We have a senior dog who needs special attention, so it's often hard to find someone to watch her.

tiefling , to General Discussion in Any lemmies that are politically neutral?

You repeating "I don't hate them" over and over while at the same time attacking trans people at their core sounds a lot like you're either in denial, or you're aware that your position is an unpopular one. Either way, it sounds like you need to do some self discovery.

That's like, 90% of it

tiefling , (edited ) to Not The Onion in General Election 2024: Politicians 'not professional enough to be clowns' as performers and punters weigh up votes in election circus

Kinda the same in the US. I'm literally a circus performer in NY. You know what capitalists hate more than anything else? Weird circus people with more passion than money who embrace diversity and deviants

In my corner, a massive corporation is trying to get approval to build a casino on historic Coney Island. The company (Thor Equities) previously bought two disjoint historical blocks and let the buildings rot until they had to be demolished for safety reasons. Their plan has them taking over two more and engulfing our historic theater, a Sideshow museum, bumper cars, and a small music venue. Our theater is also home to the nonprofit that hosts all the cool events there. None of it matters to capitalists.

tiefling , to Ask Lemmy in Older women, women with weight changes or visible disabilities, or transfolk of Lemmy - how has the male gaze changed for you?

Probably around 2 years in or so. It's not a light switch, it's more like a dimmer.

tiefling , to Ask Lemmy in Older women, women with weight changes or visible disabilities, or transfolk of Lemmy - how has the male gaze changed for you?

I'm a trans woman, have been transitioning for 10 years. It's really hit or miss whether or not people can clock me. I've had friends know me for two years without knowing I was trans.

Men ogle and catcall me frequently, it's annoying as fuck since I'm not even straight. It's flattering when queer women hit on me though. I've been both catcalled and misgendered within the same block. I also tend to have a strong social presence which is both a blessing and a curse.

Also, men cannot take no as an answer. I often pretend I have a boyfriend since creeps are more respectful of imaginary men than real women.

He's literally giving up information about our spies and causing them to "disappear"

The dude is a traitorous piece of shit who deserves to be punished for treason

tiefling , to RPGMemes in Take a wild guess...

Even with shield and blade song, you'd need a 19 base AC

tiefling , to Ask Lemmy in What would you do with your time if you didn't have to work to meet your food, housing, and healthcare needs?

I would spend the entirety of my time being creative and working on art

tiefling , to No Stupid Questions in What's the rule for which 'national identity adjective' suffix to use?

There are no rules in English. Ask the people from each country what they prefer

Republicans: "yep that's our holy saviour"

tiefling , (edited ) to Ask Lemmy in What's something weird and mostly useless that you can do with your body?

Yes

tiefling , to Today I Learned in TIL Making a living writing books is more or less as rare as becoming a billionaire

Art doesn't pay. Capitalism can't exploit it as much as manual labor so there's no money in it, unfortunately. On top of that, we have to constantly deal with people demeaning artists as useless and trying to bury us in favor of celebrities.

(Not a writer, but an artist nonetheless)

tiefling , (edited ) to Ask Lemmy in What's something weird and mostly useless that you can do with your body?

I can hammer nails and icepicks into my head. I'm very fire resistant and eat fire. I have a split tongue. I can keep my eyes open for a VERY long time.

TBF I'm a sideshow and fire performer so I'm cheating
