Thanks for explaining yours.

(And man, I hate it when other people validate that I’m in deep shit. Makes it real, you know?)

Yeah, there’s enough content on Lemmy to see everything in a half hour and then get on with the day. I like that.

The algorithm is set to “here’s everything except what you blocked.”

It’s quite good. A tight cast of exactly three characters who also play the instruments needed for the songs. Very queer, overt trans themes, and it was quite relatable to me!

I saw Lizard Boy at Portland Center Stage a couple times last week. Once with a friend who saw six showings in a row, and once with her and my wife soon after. Was quite good.

Two people hit it with a downvote.

I have no idea what the downvotes are trying to communicate.

• ”that’s right, tranny, we’re coming for you”
• ”this content doesn’t improve Lemmy“
• ”trans people aren’t discriminated against”

Or something else entirely that I can’t articulate.

Whatever the reasons for the downvotes people have left, my feelings are true and I feel them.

Being murdered for being trans while living in Oregon. It shouldn’t happen, but it’s not impossible.

Now that the Red Scare is largely over, the United States is being dismantled by a compromised president controlled by Russia in the 21st century.

Born too early to see the US being dismantled by Russia, born too late to see the US being dismantled by Russia, born just in time to see the US being dismantled by Russia.

I am ignorant of modern geopolitics. Have no pity for me. I will go learn.
