Gotta wear one of those chest protectors, Daisca.

I'm really hoping he incudes Anne in this fairy kinktober he has going on. We have Airy and Rinne already it wouldn't be right to leave the sassy dom looking fairy Anne out of the fun.

Is this the same Marylin-named racehorse whose winner's sash, or was it her coat, got blown away by the wind in recent Xwitter clips?

That was Monroe Walk at the Shuka Sho.

Basically Marilyn Monroe with horse ears.

IRL Daughter of Screen Hero (Son of Grass Wonder)!

Oh no she's hot!

Wonder if there will be any interaction with resident model Gold City, seeing as she's named after the premier American model Or maybe North Flight?

Now this is what a realistic Maki would look like. Very much unlike that other image with the bald guy

I've seen a lot of fan art of Sith and Lilith together. Do they have some sort of interaction in game or are artists pairing them just because?

Thank you for starting such a fun trend, king!!

Brazilian Miku = 2.3k after 2 years

I was betting Malfoid would reach 4k in a month (really before the 22nd. It was off by a few hours, but semantics)

It's even funnier when you realise that both wizarding_world and harry_potter_(series) only had 3.1k pieces afters 20 YEARS and Malfoid more than doubled it in a manner of month. I said it in other places and I'll say it here: Malfoid works so well because she doubles up as anykind of dere (except kuudere), gyaru or mesugaki archetype.

Is she actually from New Jersey? Otherwise, I don't understand the commentary.

At least in the comics, yes. IK that her early comic book issues start in Jersey City

No way

Is that the worst of his sins? Promiscuity? Are you going to suggest that his actresses had no choice but to prostitute for their roles?

FRien said in comment #2641856:

I dunno, that fat fuck profiteed from being a director big time. I heard he slept with pretty much all his actresses, except the one from The Birds. That's why she gets slapped in the face with said birds. That bloked certainly enjoyed his position and never paid for it, and it pisses me off because I genuinely like his movies.
At least people are talking against J.K. Rowling.

I would quibble that Hitchcock cannot currently benefit from any of his films, and so you cannot meaningfully reward him for them – it might've been a different story, ethically, while he was alive, but you can't meaningfully reinforce or deter his behavior now. Whereas Rowling is actively using the money people spend on her work to fund legislation that would get me removed from public life.

Please be more specific, because I find your worries extremely unlikely. What do you mean by "removed from public life" in practical terms? Surely you aren't just referring to women's shelters.

By and large, anything that keeps me out of women's bathrooms will also keep me out of all public bathrooms. I do not look like the typical end-user for a men's bathroom (i.e. tits, hips, dresses); men do not typically permit people who look like me to use their bathrooms. Any push to "protect women's spaces" which includes women's bathrooms means that I will be at risk going to basically any public place.

JK's "Beira's Place" was already founded on the principle that a women's space needs to exclude trans women – and, nota bene, Scotland police increasingly often refer women to Beira's Place phone operators for rape crises, and Beira's Place will not serve transgender women. Trans women are assaulted at pretty significant rates.

It's true that I'm not expecting to be rounded up or banned from going out, but I hope you can recognize the through-line from her existing politics and beliefs to a scenario in which going outside is a risk to my health and dignity.

Really? In which part of the world do you live? Here in northern Europe I remember cleaning ladies walking around in the men's bathroom at a swimming pool, and no one cared. Some girls once sneaked into a stall in the men's toilet at a party to dash out and get an eyeful of dicks, and everyone just laughed about it. My strong impression is rather that men mostly think women should have a toilet for themselves for their own modesty, but they might get offended if women don't in turn allow men their own toilets after all the decades of yapping about equality. Just tell them you have a dick (or used to) and it'll probably be fine.
Hell, Rowling herself can be observed to have the same logic going on in her head with the policy that girls are allowed to go into the boys' dorms in Hogwarts, but the stairs turn to slides if the boys try to enter the girls' dorms. Frankly hypocritical, I thought, but I generally find feminism hypocritical when equality ideas run into a bit of reality.

At risk of a bit of embarrassment, an "injury to your dignity" as you say, sure. I think the problem is mostly in your head. And of course, women say that transes in their restrooms present a risk to them, and I also think that risk is mostly in their heads (except of course for that time a boy said he was a girl and then raped a girl in the girls' toilet, and the multiple cases of male prisoners claiming trans status and raping female prisoners). And I can imagine plenty of guys who'd just hang out in women's restrooms because they're weird in whatever way, with the excuse that they are trans.
Whereas if a trans goes into a men's restroom they will usually be around guys who will actively intervene in assaults, don't want to assault trans women because they aren't so aggressive, or simply don't swing that way. You yourself expressed more concern with being expelled than sexual harassment or rape. So the risk seems more substantial to women. I'm not saying I care, I'm making a point about the general perception.
That, I think, is really the dynamic that you have trouble untangling. Women don't want guys going into women's shelters just because they say they identify as women, and that is what a lot of the trans people have said is all it takes to be trans. I could suggest trans get their own shelters, but then you'll run into the same problem men have - there simply isn't enough of a shit being given about them to fund such shelters. And that's because women represent the reproductive bottleneck, and men and trans don't, so evolution simply hasn't instilled in us the same protective instinct for men or trans as women benefit from (or gynocentrism, as some call it).
So I think guys can never fully adopt the female privileges no matter how trans they get. Certainly not with the current technology. Maybe some of the same job privileges, but most people will ultimately not consider trans identities real because their basic instinct tells them so.

I've heard such claims before and was given pretty convincing reason to doubt it. Can you provide a good source?

Okay, the idea that such policies implemented broadly will obstruct you, not just being barred from a woman's shelter or public bathrooms specifically, sure. But not so far as to generally remove you from public life, you'd at the very least still be able to engage in the same unisex public life men can, like walking around in public, talking to people as we are right now, running for office or whatever. Certainly no risk to your health.

I hope you can understand that it's difficult for me to engage with you when you seem to have taken it as a basic premise that I am not a woman, but a third gender called "trans." I am a woman. I'd like to be referred to that way.

I think you may underestimate the degree to which the ability to use a public bathroom is necessary to participate in public life. If you work in an office? Consider the prospect of holding it until you get home, or praying that they've got unisex bathrooms (not all offices do!). So that's, what, a pretty significant number of white-collar jobs ruled out for you? And plenty of blue-collar jobs, too. Also, going out to restaurants, any kind of extended time in a public place – if you don't have your own computer and need to write up a resume in order to apply, you'll need to go somewhere with public computers, i.e. somewhere where you might not be permitted to use the bathrooms. Either hold it until you get home, or soil yourself (which is likely to get you removed from public spaces anyway!), or use a public bathroom.

Also: I think your understanding of men's behavior is maybe a little rosy? I've had men scream slurs and throw things at me for existing in public, often in a public library, surrounded by other people/cameras/security guards. A men's bathroom is physically isolated and does not contain security cameras. Do you think their behavior is going to improve in an environment where there are fewer checks on their behavior? I've also had men come to me (in my capacity as a librarian) to tell me that there is a woman in the men's bathroom and I need to have her removed Immediately. Even if I'm not assaulted, I'd prefer not to be harassed/physically attacked, or to have someone escalate to calling police/security because "there's someone in the wrong bathroom."

I haven't been assaulted in a men's bathroom because I don't use men's bathrooms. If I were legally barred from women's bathrooms, my risks would escalate substantially.
