!femboy@lemmy.blahaj.zone might be an option?


Yep. Thus demonstrating the stereotype :)
Hazel has to have brown in the mix somewhere though
The test is, are you punching down? That is to say, are you, from a position of privilege, ridiculing someone that lacks your privilege? If not, you’re ok.


That we’re all descended from convicts (though I am)


Comprehensible input will be useful for both of you, but particularly for your wife if she already has some Spanish. Dreaming Spanish is what I’ve been using, but there’s also plenty of comprehensible input channels on YouTube.


How about an article like
“Clickbait Headlines You Should Not Use Anymore”


No no no. That won’t work with btrfs snapshots if you’ve had a kernel upgrade. Choose grub from those two


I will say, if you’re a newbie, then btrfs has one big benefit, especially when combined with Grub or Limine as your boot loader, and that is the ability to just roll back to a previous snapshot when something breaks.
Playing with things and breaking things as you learn is a lot less of a hassle when you can simply roll back your system to where it was yesterday, instead of having to re-install it from scratch


These days there isn’t really any reason to avoid btrfs. It’s stable, and has a lot of nice features.
Women face inequality across society.
Men only groups foster and grow that inequality.
Women only groups give women a chance to get away from the bullshit at least sometimes.
If and when we solve inequality, then we can come back and talk about whether gendered groups still have a place.
You know trans people exist right?

Dawkins has been openly racist and islamophobic (not simply “outspoken atheist”, but explicitly islamophobic) for a very long time now. Being transphobic is part of that package :\
Here’s what the science actually says https://whatweknow.inequality.cornell.edu/topics/lgbt-equality/what-does-the-scholarly-research-say-about-the-well-being-of-transgender-people/
What these people say? It’s not science. It’s bias, wearing a veneer of science, so that people who don’t like the idea of trans kids existing can point at something other than their own internal discomfort.
What they’re getting at is they don’t ask for people who are trans, they ask for people “navigating gender dysphoria”.
It’s like someone using “females” instead of women.
When you choose that framing, it’s often a sign of something deeper at play…
So Littman and Bailey are controversial. Not unethical. (Fyi Lisa Littman is herself a trans woman).
Incorrect. They are both unethical.
Littman for example, when doing her study on rapid onset gender dysphoria, targeted only online spaces which were full of parents that were upset and angry at having a transgender child. Her sample was deliberately and knowingly biased towards supporting the hypothesis she invented. Her audience also didn’t involve any trans people, only the parents of trans people, and parents who were, as a group, explicitly more likely to be strongly uncomfortable with the idea of having a trans child.
This wasn’t a mistake, or an oversight. It was a deliberate choice she made to bias her results. That’s not “controversial”, that’s outright unethical.
Similarly, Bailey regularly lies to his participant audience, and loads his studies with questions predisposed to get the results he wants to show.
The study linked to in this post is a classic example of that. None of the results of this will be designed to help people navigate dysphoria. The study is trying to draw trans people in to think that they’re helping, when in fact, the results will be used to actively undermine their ability to seek transition care and support.
Bailey and Littmans findings make the trans community angry because the research supports that for some trans females, (not all but some) they transition due to a sexual kink. That they can only be sexually excited by being a woman.
Even that’s not true.
When you look at the definitions Bailey uses for autogynephilia for example, if you apply those same measures to cis women, it turns out, they too more often than not, meet the requirements for autogynephilia. It only becomes a paraphilia when the woman is trans though, and it only becomes an explanation for the woman’s identity, when the woman is trans.
It’s taking a real correlation, ignoring the fact that the correlation isn’t unique to trans folk, and then using that correlation as an explanation for trans identity.
He never said it’s true for all female trans people.
He said it’s the only way to be a trans woman that is asexual, bisexual or gay.
The only trans women who don’t fit his criteria of transitioning due to a paraphilia, are straight trans women. Who, by the way, he calls “Homosexual transexuals”. He can’t even recognise their gender… And speaking of that, even though he thinks that trans women who aren’t straight should be able to transition, he doesn’t think that they’re women, and will repeatedly misgender them or talk only about their birth sex when talking about them.
Take a look at this, from his personal blog…

In this screenshot, you can see that whilst defending a woman who had nazis at her rally, he refers to trans women as “male” without ever referring to them as women, whilst also showing a diagram that says all trans activists are paraphillic (and thus, not really trans)
Bailey genuinely believes he is doing good science. But he’s not. He’s got a lens through which he perceives transgender identity, and he is absolutely not open to challenging that. That’s not good science…
I struggle to understand how you can call anything the man does “ethical”
GRUB because of the snapper support. I’ll probably try Liminie next time I do a rebuild


Nope. Data directories and compose files only.
What are you doing with photoshop? If it’s mostly photo editing, it’s darktable that you’re looking for.
They do, but only by passively monitoring RSS feeds for new content that exceeds your current quality. They don’t do active upgrade searches unless you manually trigger them.
The distinction is important if you imported some or all of your media library, rather than building it from scratch with the arr stack stuff. It also matters if you source some your content via providers that don’t have RSS feeds.
