So I don't have a ton of dating experience straight or queer, so I thought this video was pretty interesting. Also, since starting my transition, I've been noticing more and more how the massive amounts of unexplored baggage from gender norms influences how a lot of people interact, including when it comes to dating.

And here's one that's more in line with spooky season: Bit

A transgender teenage girl on summer vacation in Los Angeles fights to survive after she falls in with four queer feminist vampires, who try to rid the city's streets of predatory men.

 

Here's a list I put together, for some ideas: https://hexbear.net/post/3190602?scrollToComments=false

I'd be happy to hear any new suggestions and we can go ahead and pick one if there's a clear winner. Also would this Saturday work for you all? What are your opinions on times?

My prediction is Michelle Obama, because she’s already well known and polls well. It would basically be voting for a 3rd Obama term which plenty of libs would die for.

Good call. I’ll do that right now.

A couple of thoughts:

  1. I seem to recall the French electoral left being plagued by infighting and factionalism. They really came together this election and turned it around.
  2. Electoralism is ultimately a dead end, of course, but I feel like the French left leans more into direct action than their more timid counterparts in places like the US. Seems like this gives them an edge that other western left movements don't have.

I'm not French so maybe I'm way off on this. Please correct me if so.

Transphobes should be attacked without mercy wherever they exist.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that bullying transphobes is never against the rules

I've read a bit of the manga and while the base character/setting isn't bad (especially for the 1980's), there's some odd plot points and problematic aspects. I feel like it could be sooooooo much better if redone for a modern audience. I mean, a trans girl dealing with trans issues who's also both a badass and a yakuza boss' daughter has so much more potential imo. Maybe we could reach out to the mangaka and crowd fund a reboot or something.

If you ever need to bully a cis person, you could always say something like, "Nice name... DID YOUR MOM PICK IT OUT FOR YOU??" farquaad-point
