Friends with (health) benefits

That’s really the heart of it yeah. I’m expecting the next election to be different once Extremely Insecure Guy isn’t an option.

Are there any other undocumented features of my abdominal cavity that I should be aware of

It’s unfortunate that there’s a kernel of truth in both! Obviously red guy is bad and if you’re thinking in the medium-term of the next five years (the context of the election) then it really is that simple.

I do want to emphasize though that there is a lot that has to be done outside the ballot box. Even if you just want status quo, a Harris government would need to be badgered heavily to actually pass the sort of legislation needed to mitigate the imminent threat of climate change (in addition to most other policy changes you’d want or need).

Climate Man isn’t going to swoop down from the sky and save the world. Normal people need to see politics as a proactive, regular part of adulting. If you’re planning on voting this year, consider also having the goal of (if able) attending a protest or donating to political organizations you agree with this (or next) year! Lets make government suck less c:

(Being pedantic here) A couple US states technically use proportional representation in the apportionment of electors in a presidential election (Nebraska and Maine), although it’s of course dubious if an elector actually counts as a representative, given how ephemeral they are.

OKAY I didn’t read through much of it so I wasn’t sure if either of those were ever addressed!

It’s almost unreliable narration the way Liz is presented, I’m sure that was super tough for her but what’s shown in comic is ultimately just the positive stuff. Maybe that’s for tone reasons but, yeah, definitely leaves an incomplete picture, made more incomplete by her not posting for long periods 😅

Same! The early transition comics are crazy, she tells her wife and then they have a second kid together! (The trans stuff starts about here btw)

Honestly it’s artistically remarkable to see a woman articulate the progression of her transition in this like, 00s-era Penny-Arcade webcomic art style.

I love when a new season starts and we get to see the crazy shit the art department’s done

Very excited for this!! MaM was a lot of what sold me on Aabria as my favourite actual play GM <3 Just a really good deconstruction of the “secret wizard school” trope.

I guess you can just take turns doing this depending on who’s in heels

so when are the stickers with this shörk coming out ;)

🤩 so many cool and esteemed deeds are commemorated there 💖💖

I can play custodian if you need it. It’d be super lame to see this community get goofed on by spam or bigoted stuff, after managing to regrow so fast.

I love that we have the fidelity here to implement things like “downvotes are at 0.2x power” and stuff like that! That sounds cool, should totally try that out and see how it ends up feeling. I think people would ultimately be OK with a near-zero-power downvote, if that ends up negatively affecting conversations too much.

so disappointing when waste the perfect introduction to a gay porno on things like this

oh Jesus Christ

There’s a lot of fashion options you can try out to draw less attention to your shoulders, if you want. Thin, open jackets can be a good compromise in warm-to-hot weather, for example.

I tend to get stuck just flipping through Youtube if I spend too long choosing anything, so it’s usually lofi or a chiller album I’m aware of. My most productive time ever was when I was listening to Getz/Gilberto basically on repeat for a month. Still one of my favourite albums.

I don’t think it really matters either way whether there’s downvotes or not,

but I super want to point out that you do not need to get into random debates with people who are just breaking the rules of a community/instance and being bigoted. The correct response is to report and ignore.

AFAIK this is actually what most sites do internally (converting it into a webp or mp4 or whatever). Discord does this too, it’s just not as hidden on this Lemmy instance.
