Also this doggo is absolutely adorable in that costume
The wrong two of those actors are dead. ☹️
It should have been Shatner, twice.
I’ve been called “a giant faggot” but I’m medium at most. ♥️

It is not “pointless nitpicking”. It is very important holding fast against allowing very determined forces of hate any foothold whatever.
I argue 3 things:
although it can be lost
No one “in casual conversation” considers someone “sexless” when they lose their gonads to cancer, nor do you know the “sex” of anyone to whose sex you have referred in going on high-90s percent of cases by your ridiculously narrow definition—I can’t imagine in those cases where you find yourself considering using either term you jam the person with a needle or jerk them off into a cup and bust out a microscope to check motility.
Finally I’m not sure what you hope to gain by your pedantry—they’re never gonna let you into the car.
Being trans myself, I will gladly tell you no one can change their biological sex yet
This is wrong.
“Sex” is determined by myriad inter-related physical and chemical factors which are absolutely capable of changing.
The view you are adding whatever credence being trans gives you to the discussion not only is incorrect it is adopted and propagated to back-justify oppression.
Do not do that.
A woman who was assigned female at birth and later lost her uterus to cancer wouldn’t stop being referred to as “female, late 40s” when her chart is being filled out by EMTs. The distinction you are attempting to hold up is meaningless to how “sex” gets used socially and epidemiologically.
You do you as we live in a free world.
You don’t know where I live.
The only thing I would be concerned about it if it was illegal to cover your camera
You not concerned about the possibility of someone spying on you? Regardless, treating cameras as eyes is damn good practice.
That’s not the point. The point is “linux” is not reason to inherently trust a system.
Cover your cameras (as a compromise to ripping them out with a soldering iron).
The Fediverse is the Fediverse by not being Meta. You are arguing for destroying the Fediverse for everyone by waving Meta in.
Why do you keep putting my and others’ @ in your messages? If that’s a your instance thing it’s weird.
Why would you give them that extra inch though? Cover your cameras.

that’s not how the perception of the masses works, though.
How can allowing access to everything on something people start out viewing as the defualt make it seem like less of the default?
Only by things existing outside of threads can people realize it it not.
people hate Facebook. Or Meta.
I agree; people rightly hate facebook and meta
I never said that people should use Threads to join the Fediverse. I said that people who already use Threads can be more easily convinced to join this place.
How will you convince them if they can get everything the fediverse offers without leaving Threads?

I don’t think letting people interact with you without leaving Meta hurts Meta, no.
Building something bad actors aren’t allowed to access and telling people about it without letting Meta play middleman is how you get people off meta,not throwing open the doors to Evil.
This didn’t work, sadly.
How much are those relationships worth then?
And it doesn’t work because such platforms make you think that they are the default
You make Meta seem more like the default by allowing contact with you through it. Be something they can’t access while associating with evil.
I’m happy for you, or sorry that happened.
You are infinitely safer interacting with a Threads user here than by actually using Threads itself.
You should not be interacting with Threads. No one should be, and you should not legitimize it’s use.
You will not convince people to leave threads by letting them stay on threads and still talk to you.
Front-facing cameras should not exist. Yes, on everything.
Did xz not just happen?
Physically block the light.
I’m against it sounding like “Threads” i.e. as though it’s something Meta owns and controls. For all I know your use came first and the thing I hate is Meta appropriating it, though.
Teach your child to cover front-facing cameras with tape.

Leonard Nimoy and the animal actor who portrayed the Alfa 177 canine (in all likelyhood) are both dead.
I would prefer a world where a cute happy dog and Leonard Nimoy were still with us and William Shatner had died, twice.
