Just say 'No' to TERFs and tankies!
  • the mainstream LGBTQ+ community is clearly accepting of trans men and most of the “in-fighting” in queer communities is made up by conservatives.

    I am NOT a conservative and I am NOT making this up.

    And I really do not fucking appreciate how you have been talking to me this entire time.

  • also way to piss me off. Like are you trolling? Did you miss the context of my original post? You sure glazed over the discrimination I was talking about just to correct me on something that didn't need to be corrected.

    This really comes off like you're trying to make this out like I said something I NEVER SAID.

    yes I'm mad. I feel like you're fucking with me and you better not be. Like do everyone a favor and be honest. Are you really trying to have a good faith discussion about this?

    I deal with enough racism and homophobia in real life. I don't want to deal with it here too.

    How many people actually dropped Reddit for Lemmy?
  • I thought this was going to be more of polling post.

    Anyway I did. I deleted my account and haven't gone back for anything since then. It's rough too cause now there's no connection to the local groups here.

    I joined a local instance hoping there would be local people posting but I guess that's not how lemmy works.

    Is ADHD over diagnosed?
  • because as far as you were concerned, everyone is in the same tribe as you

    I definitely don't think that way. I'm aware that I am different from other people.

    Reposting from my other comment:

    Well I had the luxury of dating a psychologist who specializes in diagnoses and her brother is autistic - so she is very aware of autism and how it works and what it looks like in different people.

    She confirmed I'm not autistic and thought it was hilarious that anyone would assume that about me. She's known me for years and she has experience in that field. She knows better than just randoms at a meet up group would.

    When I told her that random autistic girls from my comm were making this assumption she gave me the biggest eye roll and a laugh. Because duh, I'm not autistic.

    What's something that you hate about all (or most) people?
  • I'm impressed that you managed to reach gf level with someone like that.

    If I can't get through a conversation with a person it's just like, too frustrating for me. Makes me feel crazy too. Like I know I'm being coherent but talking to someone like that makes me feel like I have to try extra hard to understand them even though they're the ones not making sense.

    Who is your favorite fictional character?
  • Becky Connor. She was such a little bad ass when she was growing up and she does a hell of a job bouncing back from being a widow as an adult.

  • Yeah the bloatware doesn't interfere with anything I do. I use some apps like I'm trash so I use a dating app, and I use a podcast app to listen to a show and a banking app.

    The bloatware is just kind of in the background and I never fully install it when I get a new phone so it just stays in limbo.

  • god that sucks to hear.

    I'm alarmed at the amount of people I met, mostly women, who are like upset when I tell them I'm not autistic. It's like they want me to be or something. They insisted I needed to get tested to be sure.

    Like what is with these people wanting this to be common and wanting to get people join in like its a club? It's a genetic trait. You either have it or you don't I thought.

    I know plenty of people like this.
