The English Offical Table of Drops for hanging. Helps prevent the head from popping off or doing the air run.

Atomic Tanks. Old school 2D hot seat fun. Nuke your friends and family.

That’s pretty much what I figured. Wish trans folks had something like the old school hanky code.

As far as my preferences go, I was in a triad for a while with an NB. If I were stuck on a desert island and had to pick between a vanilla woman or a sub boy, I’m picking the boy. However, like I said, I have a strong preference for female genitalia. The whole tomboy/NB thing is the sweetspot for me in this spectrum.

I also have smell preferences. MtF, many NB, and cis women smell much more attractive to me. I imagine it’s related to test levels. I don’t find heavily transitioned FtM very attractive. There’s an androgynous smell that’s kind of like fallen leaves that I really like.

Not trying to fetishize here, but thought the perspective might be interesting. I’m very masculine and fall somewhere between a wolf or bear.

As far as I know, pup/petplay is an outgrowth of queer male leather with leather pups being the prototype. Ponyplay has similar roots, probably a little more tradionally het. A fair amount of it, especially in porn, is just female submissive cishet roleplay. There is also overlap with furries.

It is relatively common in the straight-ish kink and leather communties in the US. There are leather pups all over gay leather. I can’t speak to the lesbian communties.

If you’re in the US, get involved with your local bdsm/kink community. Saw a girl come out as a hu-cow for the first time at a recent event.

When considering dating trans/NB folks, what is the best way to ask about their genital configuration, gender identity, and future planned trajectory?

In other words, I have a strong preference for female genitalia. I also strongly prefer limited or no body hair (shaved is fine). There is a set of tomboy/androgyny/boi that is my type. Is there a polite way to ask about this?

Jeebus. That’s fucking wild.

This summer has been like summers when I was a kid. I’m a few hundred miles north of where I was.

(Neighbors look at us like we’re crazy when working outside in the mid 90s, humidity is only like 60-70%.) Heat tolerance is a superpower, apparently.

That’s a great Fitzgerald quote. I had to look it up. Written after The Great Gatsby but published shortly before, The Rich Boy is a novelette. From 1926.

1926. I fucking hate knowing history. I fucking hate feeling like Cassandra.

Sometimes a DIY icepick lobotomy doesn’t sound like a bad idea.

I’ll go with you.

I’m still going to want to have a hard talk with God about why She allows cancer babies and such…

Rock and roll. I’ve seen bad things happen when someone decides it’s a good idea to modernize a PC based CNC control. (I hate PC based controls). They get their own little fence to live inside where it’s always 1999.

At least the lathe isn’t running punch tape.

Don’t upgrade or mess with the control. Disconnect from the network if it’s on it. It should have RS-232. Throw a Pi or other SBC that does serial and a 12V level shifter; use that to feed it programs.

Also, make an image of the hard drive if it has one and start looking for a spare drive on ebay.

Damn skippy. Gaslighting and basic ass lying are different things. But hey, it’s trendy right now. Next, we’ll find out how he’s a malignant narcissist.

Dude posted a shill review. It’s called shilling. It’s a form of lying for profit. He likely did it to advance his career or because he was afraid not to. His employer likely encouraged the action without directly ordering it.

AP telling the same story. Looked like Reuters was, as well, at a quick glance. So I guess this is confirmed.

What a terrible thing.

Neat. I think it goes back at least to the '90s. It’s a great descriptive word. I really hope it doesn’t get picked up by the wrong sorts. They already stole my yellow snake flag.

If it goes that far, it’s probably all over the US.

As the other commenter noted, heebie jeebies. In the US South it has been rounded off to “the heebs.” No racial connotation. Similar to being spooked or apprehensive without a known danger. Slang term. Never thought about it being mistaken.

Another slang term I use that is similar and is easily mistaken is, “bad juju.” It means bad magic, bad luck, or a curse. One day, when I build my dream car, I want it on a vanity plate.

Correct. US southern English.

I call it getting the heebs. Seeing a weird turn of phrase will set it off for me. This is my first time experiencing it from a leftist slant.

Used to watch the Russians clock in and go to work on TheDonald back in the day. They were really obvious.

The AstroTurf here is pretty nice, smells so much like grass you about can’t smell the bullshit. Better than Reddit, or Digg, or Slashdot, for now.

Maybe it’s time to take a trip down the Mother Road and try Usenet for actual discussion.
