Pretty sure she’s being sarcastic here. That’s her whole schtick.
Pretty sure? I thought the Lemmy audience was better at detecting sarcasm than Reddit ☹️ I guess I’ll have to keep on using sarcasm tags here too then.
It’s not a problem with the platform, any online setting that has diverse enough views are going to require that. To get away from them you need to just put out views that basically everyone agrees with, which can be done by either sticking to echochambers or just having absurdly accepted views.
This also only happens among people who don’t know eachother. Smaller groups usually know eachother well enough to Intuit intention, or at least have no compunction against asking for clarification.
Absolutely
Gotta account for folks at different places on the spectrum. Some people can’t help but interpret things literally.
Nah, Im 100% sure, but for whatever reason I dont like to be so assertive when I speak.
Fair enough 🙂
But I am a whore😞
That’s no defence for hate. How about just… not putting that trash out here?
That’s how satire works. Do you think she unironically believes men get into 40k to impress women?
Wait…Why else would you get into 40k except for the women?
For the Emperor.
FOR THE IMPERIUM!
The fame and the money
Don’t forgot the power.
Again, it’s sarcasm, not hate.
I can’t imagine going through life being this sensitive to absurd sarcastic jabs. For the sake of my sanity, I have to cross my fingers and hope you were just badly joking along, too.
Watch a Shoe video before you try labeling her.
The point is making fun of men who legitimately believe this is true about women. 🤦♀️
lol
They know! Abandon your miniatures!
Only 1:1 models for me from now on!
Functional 1:1 models, of Power Armor!
“models”
You’re gonna need some impressive interests.
I’ve always liked Battletech and MechWarrior
Women will never be interested in my paranoid rants about big tech and surveillance states
Have you tried presenting them in the form of a sonnet? I hear chicks dig poetry.
My girlfriend said not too 😔 Can’t tell if she thinks it would be too effective and I might attract other women or if she doesn’t want to hear it 🤔
You underestimate your potential.
Holy shit that’s my comment lmao. I’m going through top posts and just upvoted my own damn comment because I thought it was funny. I really legitimately laughed at my own joke
wait, that’s how you impresses girls? oh shit I’ve been doing it all wrong.
Don’t worry, it has to be painted good to impress the ladies.
why are you so cruel?
Just keeping it real, don’t rely on your Warhammer minis to pull chicks, gotta have a backup like winning a regional MTG tournament to really be rolling in the ladies
Reality is cruel.
Well, shit, there goes my chances.
Don’t be ridiculous not all women are gonna want your ratchet 40k hand painted figures. Some of us have class and want d&d hand painted figures.
if it can’t at least be a proxy in my army you’re too high maintenance anyway
Lies. No woman ever is, has been or will be impressed by me discussing the relative merits of various road bike group sets.
Because road bikes are for sissies. Real men ride the mountain.
Dura-ace? Ditch. Ride Saint, bitch.
/s
That’s what you think biker boy
And they lived happily ever after.
Put me in the thread screenshot that they use for their wedding invitation
Your place or mine?
That’s the joke bro Warhammer is mega nerdy
Not gonna lie. Guys who put that much passion and attention to detail into their hobbies: That’s hot yo.
My only hobby is motorbikes. I am unsure of how to put a lot of detail onto that hobby.
However. Throttle goes vroooom
What do you like about motorbikes? Is it the bike itself? The ride? The journey on the open rode?
I do like the idea of doing a gigantic roadtrip on a motorcycle. Biking across the US would be a bucketlist item for me.
I just love bikes. I think it’s the huge adrenaline rush from them. And they feel amazing to ride. And the power is amazing. The community is also super friendly. The way they make feel as well, I just can’t describe it. Best I can try is, I haven’t met anything or anyone that I’m constantly excited to be around. Or that I don’t get bored after a while. I’ve only had my big bike for about a month. But I’m always itching to go out. Even after coming home.
I’m not American. But if there is one thing I want to do over there, it is a road trip around America on a bike. Or Australia. Definitely the auto bahn in Germany. And I have no issue with packing light. All I need is a phone charger, money for petrol, and a few pairs of underwear.
I’ve ridden coast to coast across the US a number of times with just the things I can fit on the bike and camping wherever I can find a spot. It’s definitely worth it and you can do it on almost any bike so it doesn’t need to be crazy expensive either!
Do your own maintenance, maybe get into modding them a bit. Definitely room for details.
Or track days. It’s the little things that count when you’re rocketing down a track at a buck sixty.
I’ve only had mine for about a month now. So, I haven’t had the chance to do too much on it. But I’m looking forward to adding little bits and pieces.
And yes, I really want to do a track day, I just don’t wanna fuck the bike.
Yeah, I litelarly had no interests before I got married. Now, even less.
Didn’t she end up going full blown right-wing
Shoe’s never been right wing, and she’s steadily moved further left throughout her career.
Wasn’t she always?
Yeah but she’s hot
She’s the non-binary of political identity. Is she left? Is she right? She’ll never tell.
deleted by creator
No
No
Overall she has moved left, but recently she had some really weird reactionary takes and she tends to pal around with people who are nice to her regardless of their political views. Her current boyfriend is, as far as I know, a conservative. Imo seems kinda spineless to be friends with people who actually don’t want you to exist.
All I know is that she catered to the anti-feminist crowd with her “skeptic” boyfriend back when people like Sargon had their peak.
If anything the opposite imo. AFAIK she really adopted the anti feminist anti woke agenda at some point but moved more left over the years, not sure she was ever right wing though.
From what I understand, she’s a typical “right wing” Atheist.
She used to be with a youtuber called “Armored Skeptic”. (If you know, you know.)
Atheists ended up being seen as right wing after sensitivity became a core requirement to be welcome in left wing discourse.
Completely denying God is Islamophobic, and therefore alt-right.
And while they are usually accepting of the right to transition, Atheists also tend to not see the mind-over-matter style “I think I am female, therefore I am.” as meaningful, but instead view the biological influence of hormones and the social effects of behavior and clothing to be what makes a transition go from a desire to a materialized reality.
This is a transphobic way to view transitions, and therefore right wing.
These days, men like Richard Dawkins have very little influence. Atheism (and anti-theism) peaked around 2010, but after gaining a very bad image there are now few who will self-label as an atheist, even fewer will call themselves anti-theists. They’ll rather say “I’m not religious”, “I’m agnostic”, if not declining to answer completely.
Hwat?
Wtf are you smoking
Is it the “denying God means Islamophobia” thing? Its a pretty weak claim in most western contexts, though if you state your disbelief in an Islamic theocracy your head comes off all the same. It would be more accurate to say denying God usually comes with disrespect towards belief, and dislike of harmful beliefs. Feelings Islam becomes a prominent target of as a major religion, and due to its very harmful belief system the dislike tends to be very strong.
So, was that it, or was it something else?

Islamophobia is not right wing. You’re mixing it with racism. Transphobia is not right wing, just more common in the right.
I think the whole claim is just plain stupid regardless of the context. In Islamic theocracies atheism would basically be heresy.
Also the claims about transphobia. That has nothing to do with being an atheist and all about being an asshole.

Also thinking everyone even slighty to the right of you is a traitor to the cause is a proud leftist tradition

She has her own ideas. Try to watch one video on her channel, they are public.
Nahhh I’m good lol

I admit it, it’s true. Every since I got into Warhammer 40K I’ve had so much sex with tons of beautiful women. It’s gotten so bad that I now get an erection, every time I look at the Emperor of Mankind
‘now’ you get an erection when you look at the Emperor of Mankind?
Meaning… you didn’t before?
YES COMMISSAR, THAT’S THE HERETIC RIGHT THERE
Wait, so gay men dont develop interests ever?
Us here would be people men want to fuck
Pug Jesus, I just want to say, thank you for all of the content. Especially over at NCD. The majority of posts I see, come from you. Thanks for sharing to all the relevant places.
Just trying to keep a little life in here while the Fediverse finds its feet!
Here’s a picture of my pug for your effort.
Oh my goodness, what a little blessing they are!
If that pug dies for my sins I’m going to be very upset.
Don’t worry, it’s my job to die for the sins of mankind; redeeming the evil we have committed by the blessing of small respiratorially challenged dogs. They are holy and make us better
That blessing has the rage of a pride of lions, I haven’t been abused so much by a dog as much as that beautiful little bitch and she’s only 14 weeks old lol.
Praise PugJesus!
whore
well this is causing me to learn things about myself.
I don’t think being a sysadmin in the fringes of the internet can impress a girl
I’m dunno dude I’m swooning
Who wouldn’t for Mr. Belch, Administrator of Systems.
Senior admin, probably. Or at least he should be, by now. Can you tell I’m bitter?
Wait, you’re a Redditor AND a Discord admin? Oh my god… 💦💦💦
~[Shh, the trick is having a discord friend group]~

It doesn’t impress boys either
Sadly when I talk about it I am the nutjob
Reminds me of an episode of ‘Cheers.’
Womanizer Sam realizes that everything he’s ever done was to impress women. Played baseball to impress the ladies; brought a sports car to impress the ladies; brought a bar to have a cool job. Then Rebecca points out that he loves the 3 Stooges and all woman hate that stuff…
deleted by creator
If that were true… would not “impress them gurrls” be an interest to begin with?
I only impress girls to impress girls
I only impress women to bolster the King’s Navy and keep the colonies in check
Very based but as a colonial I must inform you your tea is in the harbor
That was supposed to be your tea, maybe.
