It does seem like many transphobes are incredibly self-centred and believe that we are transitioning 'at' them in some way

Also I just realised that it's an actual gun, which seems excessively dangerous

Put in a good speaker and you can put in whatever Foley you want

Personally I recommend a giant more-or-less normal chicken, or possibly an aggressive chainsaw

I feel setting it up in eg the UK would also cause considerable panic

I mean, we could start with making trans masc characters people rather than symbols

Also testosterone is not the magical "pass as man" hormone

I'm still baffled as to how Link made the cat noise during the bit where he tails Mila (if she hears you, Link will meow.)

Like, there's no cats in Wind Waker. How does he know what a cat sounds like?

A number of other people have pointed out he sounds like an abuser trying to get sympathy for his victim leaving him

Maybe the abuse in this case is just his transphobia, but I would not be surprised if he was horrible to his son and ex in other ways

Yeah, sometimes both at the same time

Either that or people don't realise that a) privilege is not a simple on/off switch and b) early 21st century US concepts of race and racial privilege are absolutely not universal

I really hope that Turbo resembled the rodent version of this:

I mean, I checked in 2024, and compared it to the average US price per person without insurance (which seemed to be the most comparable price)

At least the other big billionaire excessively online transphobic fascist uses real ketamine

There is a thing posted online showing what your treatment costs to the NHS and what your medication costs per year to the NHS

My insulin isn't cheap, but it's about a quarter of what it costs in the US
December 10, 2025 at 5:14 PM
Honestly the think that really shocked me is that our royal births (with all the bells and whistles) cost the same as the most bog-standard birth in the US

I can absolutely say that even in its gutted state (thank you Thatcher et al), the NHS is better

At its worst, at least we're not paying £100+ for a single appointment

Regan isn't hanging. He's with Thatcher, and if they're hanging, they can't have chunks taken out of their ankles by wheelchair footplates

(I speak from experience - ouch!)

What about their phallic equivalents?
December 10, 2025 at 3:17 PM
Ftr, it was just the metal shell, it was completely inert

The thing that tipped the enthusiast off was the smell of the explosive when dismantled

(I did drop it on my foot, which hurt a lot)
December 10, 2025 at 11:49 AM
To be fair there are a number of ordinary household objects with that label (eg batteries) because under the wrong circumstances, they will explode

My dad ordered a "replica WW2 grenade" from a magazine back in the 1980s, and we had it in our shed

I used to play with it as a kid (including pulling the pin)

We passed it on to a military history enthusiast, who dismantled it and found out that it was an actual (disarmed) grenade

I'm delighted to discover this word

I can't really make that comparison, but some of the games also have blood splatter effects (for example, IV and Apocalypse and have a bullet hole blood splatter when you finish a battle with a gun skill)
