The ternary syntax is really my only real gripe with python design – putting the conditional BETWEEN the true and false values feels so very messy to me.

This book was my awakening to Jeff Vandermeer. Barely put it down to sleep.

Loved Black Books, thanks I’ll check out Royle!

Would you say it’s your #1 complaint?

Not knowing what you don’t like about Lemmy, makes it hard to recommend things that improve upon those unspecified complaints.

Candi Carpenter - “Demonology”

Charli XCX - “BRAT”

FLETCHER - “In Search of the Antidote”

Unsurprising, he was hung too.

Shipping and trek fandom, name a better duo.

Yeah - when bigots are loud in their mockery and attacks, it hurts trans people to NOT hear anyone also vocally supporting them. That isn’t too say that quiet support isn’t valuable – but so is loud support, in a different way, and squelching loud support is still a damaging trade.

Hmm. Again, I hear what you’re trying to say, but “OP posting a meme to Lemmy about supporting trans rights” isn’t “insisting every part of every discussion cater to all of your beliefs at once.”

You’re tilting at a strawman that isn’t happening here, which is part of what makes your comments come across as more than simple face value.

“Pick your battles in conversations” is potentially a valid point. But “don’t post supportive memes because bigots don’t like the association” is effectively an attempt to silence support for trans entirely. (And trans people need more support than just healthcare.)

“all we have to do is abandon issue X, and the bigots will finally join forces with us!”

i get the temptation, but if progress on healthcare means throwing trans people under the bus, then it’s not actually progress.

(and i do see “keep your intentions to yourself” which isn’t the same as “throwing under the bus” – but there’s room for both clear advocacy and quiet agreement, and asking the open advocates to be quiet seems like friendly fire/counterproductive.)

Eh, you’re right, but also I think Nintendo is usually kinda in their own category. We see xbox/ps comparisons all the time, but rarely nintendo, since it isn’t really a drop-in comparison. I think this is a similar case – the switch outsells everything strictly for “handhelds”, but it isn’t really solving generalized handheld gaming.
