He might just be a super curious kid. When I was a kid I loved going into other people's houses because I was curious and liked exploring.

...which is probably part of the reason people never invited me over.

I think at least part of it is wanting a partner that makes them feel safe and secure, and perceiving height as an indicator of such. Tbh, however, if I liked you and you had an 8" difference on me then I'd probably be really happy (that'd put you at 6'7" tho).

That said, if they care about your height enough that they don't want to date you, then I'd tell you the same thing I'd tell a girl who's being shamed for not having DD cups: they're hardcore objectifying you and you shouldn't waste your time on them; you deserve better.

I don't think you understand. The height difference is desirable.

Source: I'm 5'11" and want someone to make me feel small.

God I wish. I have boy genes though and slightly above average height (even for guys).

Bleh.

Wish there was an en-smallening procedure. It's harder to feel intimidated by a guy (which can be a bad thing or a good thing, depending on the atmosphere) when you're taller than he is.

7~8 days while camping (boy scout winter camp).

1~2 during a bad power outage.

Second twist: the dog is a happily collared and pampered trans puppy girl so it's fully consensual.

The twist: she's not breastfeeding the dog, the dog is breastfeeding her.

I don't really want to be in an enclosed space like that with a stranger, especially a man. Men can be psychos and it's not worth the risk.

Yes, women can be psychos too, but A) women are less likely to feel entitled to another woman's body, and B) the playing field is more level in terms of strength.

That's Grandpa.

Why would Grandma care? Grandma's probably getting her brains fucked out by 13 werewolves while Grandpa's putting together a catgirl harem. Even if that's not your kind of grandma, she's probably very much aware that she should be giving you privacy, lol.

Afaik no one knows where the line between "human-made" and "machine-made" is, so AI-generated imagery is considered public domain (at least for now).

 

I recently saw a couple posts on techtakes and holy shit their members are, well, awful. Is this some kinda metajoke or running gag? Their members tend to have positive comment scores despite being massive assholes. That seems out of character for Lemmy which is why I'm confused and wondering if there's some kinda running gag I missed.

Leading up to his death:


For those of you outside of the community (and possibly wondering why the furry side of social media is on fire), Dragoneer did a hell of a lot for the furry community. FurAffinity is the largest furry art host and social network; he could have sold out and allowed AI, or made the site friendly to corporate advertising, but he didn't.

He intentionally didn't.

If he had, he probably would have been able to afford healthcare, but he didn't.

He died because he wanted to keep the site in the community instead of whoring it out to corporations, resulting in him not having the money for healthcare when he needed it the most. I wish I'd been more aware of what was going on because I would have chipped in to help (if he'd allowed it).

It makes me fucking furious that the US, the country with the highest GDP in the world by 10 TRILLION DOLLARS, still allows this to happen.

RIP Dragoneer, we'll never forget you. Wherever you are, I hope it's filled with fur, feathers, scales and wagging tails.

Edit: I was trying to make a joke about how her new fondness for the number "34" was because "haha funny sex rule number" aka "rule34".

 

Hey, I recently received a 14-day ban from lemmy.ml for this comment:

While I suppose it wasn't the nicest thing I could have said, here's what bothers me. They cited rule 1 as the ban reason. Now, lemmy.ml's news community doesn't have its own rules section, so I was left to assume that they were applying the instance-wide "rule 1" which was, "no bigotry".

No Bigotry.

Apparently calling someone a tankie and a redfash accelerationist is bigotry? Are they seriously trying to equate being a tankie with being trans, gay, black and/or native american? Seriously? That's incredibly bigoted and offensive; and that's ignoring the fact that the common tankie idols like Stalin, Putin, Xi Jinping and Kim Jong-un are deeply intertwined with things like nationalism, ethnic superiority, queerphobia and the like.

Meanwhile, their modlog shows that they've dealt with multiple instances of actual queerphobic bigotry by removing the comment while also letting the user go.

Do we really want to be associated with bigots like that?

The thing that sucks is that there are communities I genuinely enjoy on lemmy.ml, however getting banned for bigotry after calling someone a tankie and redfash accelerationist while actual bigots are allowed to keep hanging out on lemmy.ml is like a slap to the face.

I'm honestly considering leaving Lemmy and social media at this point. It seems like my two choices are corporate-owned black-box algorithms populated by soft-spoken bigots and pissed-off centrists looking for an axe to grind, and FOSS-based federated platforms where you still have to tolerate bigotry because there apparently aren't enough users and interesting content otherwise.

Inb4 I start getting harassed by lemmy.ml admins or something.

Edit for people who are curious: it's not Photoshop, it's a troodontid mask made by Archesuchus for their "Weird Birds" series. Here's what it looks like under normal lighting conditions.

Not gonna lie, I really, really want one. But fursuit heads are expensive (I'm assuming the cost would be similar since that's basically what it is) and I don't have the skill or tools to make one myself. :c
