It should get OP a ban. What's the point of defederation if someone from .ml is just going to bring all that shit here?

So "there were lots of anime which did have official English names," so you didn't "come from an era before widespread official anime translations."

Therefore, bullshit.

Since these characters were introduced people have said what you're saying over and over. Always with the same "I don't have a problem with gay/trans/NB but..." disclaimer. Then they refuse to give examples of the characters doing anything other than existing. This thread is a good example. Please refresh my memory. Which episode(s) focus "on the social issues that surround homosexuality."

Outside of the scene where Adira tells Stamets their pronouns and the use of those pronouns, give me one line, in one scene, in one episode, of one season that would have to be changed if Adira was a cis straight human woman hosting the symbiote of her deceased cis straight Trill boyfriend.

Give me one line, in one scene, in one episode, of one season that would have to be changed if either Stamets or Culber was a woman.

To be clear, although I don't remember any, I'm not saying you couldn't find any examples. I'm just curious what constitutes "forced and obvious" plot elements that are "advertisement(s) for ideologies" that "ruins the show" for you.

Without examples all anyone hears is you bitching about the existence of these characters the way Archie Bunker would have bitched about Uhura simply existing.

Great idea!

Just make sure it's not anywhere near me.

Am I missing something, or is it not possible to criticize the media's obsession with attractive white girls without calling a person in a hospital after being beaten and probably gang raped stupid for no reason? You fucking piece of shit. See how I had a reason there?

It's hard to get a good return on your investment in residential real estate without using leverage.

For instance: You don't buy one place outright. You buy 5 with 20% down. You may not have positive cash flow, but at long as it isn't negative not only do you get all the increase in value, you also get more equity every month as the tenants pay your mortgages.

If you bought it outright and over some period of time the tenants have paid your entire investment and the price of the property doubles, you doubled your money. If you buy 5 and over some period of time the tenants pay your mortgage and initial investment and the properties have doubled in value you have increased your initial investment 10X. And before the big expensive renovations come in, you can sell and buy something else if you're not equipped to deal with that.

Also if you are just breaking even to get free property but you want to start getting passive income, after a few years you can refi to a longer term and lower your mortgage payments to get in the black every month.

This isn't advice, fuck anybody buying up single family homes to rent, just showing one way they can generate both wealth and passive income for nothing. Literally nothing if they're using a property management company.

Fuck anybody buying up single family homes to rent. I know I already said that, but it bears repeating.

For me personally, my wife and I are probably going to stay in this house until it's time for the old folks home so it's just numbers that'll never actually mean anything. If it crashes by half or more I'll actually get a reduction to my property tax.

Let it crash, this is unsustainable. Having a secure, long-term roof over your head shouldn't be so fucking hard.

I think he's saying the length of the tongue isn't the reason they enjoy oral.

In other words, deep penetration isn't the only way, and for some not the best way, to please a woman.

White paternalism is a form of racism. Are you one of those "the real racists are the ones calling out my racism" types?

[-] Jmdatcs@lemmy.world 33 points 1 year ago

How dare you try to develop your own opinion. Don't you know that white girls on social media get to tell you what to be offended by?

[-] Jmdatcs@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Both can be true.
