I feel bad for transphobes when they have to go to the store and make a transaction.

5 billion people believe that God is bigender, which is often considered transgender.

Conservatives worship a transgender being. Transphobes cope and seethe.

God is also a genderless being who uses capitalized male pronouns.

The data I'm looking at says only 55% of people are even monotheistic. Where are you getting that 5 billion number from?

it does explain why they wouldn't want the government to be more transparent.

[–] roomboy@lemmy.world 25 points 2 years ago

I'm surprised any Republicans even drive vehicles seeing as each one of them has a transmission.

Do you suppose stupid bigots will avoid transplants because they don't want to become plants?

[–] Kase@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

You know what's weird? If you do a transplant between trees it's called a graft. Transplant was right there smh

[–] extant@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

They're fine with becoming plants, just not if it's trans.

I prefer the alternative gender for that profession, criptionist.

So much for my trans-Atlantic voyage. Guess I ll take the trans-Siberian train then. Comms are very bad there so ill take the trans-ceiver with me.

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 18 points 2 years ago (5 children)

A lot’s changed. Back in my parents’ day, a trip to the city meant taking the

to the airport to fly a

and head for meetings and abortions at the

Seems like being trans back then must have been such a gift. People would obviously hold you in such high regard.

Nobody ever asked KITT for their pronouns.

Wait til they find about the department of transportation

No, no I'm pretty sure the bigots support the deportation of trans people... They seem to want to deport everyone not white enough, why stop at race?

These istors keep messing with my power! I hear they're bipolar too.

All my plugs are male–male. I take all in stride:

It seems like being a conservative is just harboring an ideology that causes you to say things entirely devoid of substance.

Exhibit A:

Maybe a pun is just a pun and you're making a thing out of nothing. I don't know. Context an intend matter.

ITT: figuring out that "trans-" means "across" by giving other words with same prefix. Yey etymology

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 2 years ago (9 children)

“meta” also still means “across” in Greece

phérō meant “I carry”

metaphor: I carry across

they now use the term for “transportation in general”

here’s a modern truck in Greece for ΜΕΤΑΦΟΡΙΚΗ

in Greek, they use μεταφορική έννοια (metaforikí énnoia – literally “transportation sense”) to mean “metaphor”
