I think that not necessarily everything in life is a big buddhist style learning moment and sometimes we really do just dig our own holes. And I mean, there's nothing to say that the person in this simplistic cartoon strip didn't learn anything here. Maybe sometimes the lesson is just that if you touch the hot plate on a stove, you'll get burnt.
Other bigger lessons in life probably look a bit different to this.
For the person on the left hand side, the only matches I can find seem to be marketing related, or it's a stock image. The person on the right hand side is from an art piece by someone named Billy Norrby: https://www.billynorrby.com/
I did consider !womensstuff@piefed.blahaj.zone but there's a nice social vibe there. And while I might post a relevant meme there some time in the future, I wouldn't want to see the place flooded with them.
Didn't consider !femcelmemes@lemmy.blahaj.zone, I'll see if the meme fits the vibe there in future.
How does an occasional music post around here sound? I don't want to promise weekly or monthly or even that I'll start right now but I've been listening to a lot of new (to me) music, particularly focussing on music with a woman's voice (alternative / punk / metal to be specific). I'm also starting to see some pretty cool up and comers in my feeds. Itching to start sharing with people who are actually interested. Does this interest people around here?
A few months ago (on my original Blåhaj account), I posted elsewhere asking for suggestions on punk and heavy music with female vocalists. This is ended up starting a ball rolling for me, a new longer term fixation to keep me going for a few years in between the little obsessions lol.
Originally I was planning on doing on doing a post or two with a master list for people to refer to based on genre etc. I'd still like to do that but the more I discover and the more rabbit holes I go down, the longer term that idea is becoming. I also tend to get stuck on and obsessed with one or two bands or artists for a while, so it's going to take time to really get through everything.
I'm honestly not too sure where else to post this kind of content. 'Witches vs Patriarchy' does seem like it should be more witchy content than this. But there's no plethora of 'blatant misogyny' and 'men and females' type communities here like Reddit. And !feminism@beehaw.org seems like it's more for articles and things of actual substance than memes or screenshots.
Just so you know, I had to look that up to make sure it wasn't some medical condition or something wrong with it that I was unaware of. But you're correct, it does indeed have a stoma lol.
Yeah I definitely wasn't intending on making fun of it with this post. I love the look of dyed hair, personally. And this particular kind of stuff with all the hues is an art form.
In dog society, they don't just say "cheese" when posing for photos. Any food will do.
That's cool, I can kinda see it, although it doesn't have the pink / purple hues. This isn't an offensive meme I hope? I just thought it was offbeat funny.
Definitely. It's the gateway. And a complete fantasy apart from maybe a few well off influencers living the dream without abuse and other.
But I mean, you just need to delve into mainstream social media occasionally to see what the men on the manosphere side of this reactionary conservative movement really think and openly say when they're attacking feminist pages daily.
Any gen Z women that get lured across the line from cottagecore to tradwife are in for a hell of a fucking time with these broccoli top little nazi gen Z boys.
Personally I don't buy this one as a problem. Pre social media, anarchists weren't sitting around a table sipping tea with nazis, alt people didn't have to put up with fkn jocks making the same comments about dyed hair and piercings that grandpa has been making since 1976 daily, if you want to the club and spent your time insulting all the regulars and staff and owner, you'd get your ass kicked out to the curb by the bouncers.
I think the problem is a certain crowd acting like they should have the right to just barge into whatever spaces they want and say whatever they want without any consequences. Life was never like that. And just because you're free to speak, doesn't mean that everyone should be forced to listen whether they want to or not.
Sometimes people who believe in jewish space lazers just need to be treated like the deranged fucking clowns that they are and not be given a seat at the table. The world would probably be so much better if these people would go back to whatever fucking holes they crawled out of.
