I’m sorry for your loss.

Oh my god when i was a kid it took me like two YEARS to get all the chaos emeralds in Sonic 1! That’s an eternity in kid time.

There were no save states or anything like that. I failed so many times…but one day I finally did it, i finally got all of them, and on that day I was a god.

On Voyager for Android and it’s animated.

Same, working fine.

My first thought was this, and when I opened the thread your reply was the first response listed as well.

Jessie McGrath, 63, a lifelong Republican who is trans, grew up around guns on farms in Colorado and Nebraska. She decided to vote for Harris when Republicans started attacking gender-affirming care and “wanting to basically outlaw my ability to exist”. She ended up being a delegate at the Democratic national convention.

“Government getting involved in making healthcare decisions is something that I never thought I would see the Republican party doing,” she said.

What the actual…how are people this ignorant.

Calling trans women biological males is transphobic hate speech. Not allowed here.

It’s not virtue signaling. The language the other person used is what the republicans constantly say when they are describing trans women because they don’t believe trans women are women, and it’s used to take away the rights of trans people, and it’s working.

There are plenty of ways to say that she isn’t cis and doesn’t have a uterus while being respectful – like I just did.

I’m as left as they come, but the virtue signaling you just did is why so many people get so turned off by so much rhetoric of our political side.

I think you want the trans community and its allies to not confront you on dangerous rhetoric then, while they constantly have to fight people on the left and right to keep from having their rights stripped away.

Being an ally means being open to learning when we make mistakes, and the language the other person used wasn’t appropriate. I hope you and others here can understand why.

Even in this comment, you didn’t offer an alternative for “biological male”

I absolutely did: “trans woman”.

I was educating. It’s 2024 and trans people are dying and having their basic human rights taken away, due in part to the pervasive rhetoric I originally called out. I expect better of people, and transphobic comments on lemmy are not welcome and break the rule of civility in the lemmy.world news community.

Also, you’re telling me - a trans person - that they are virtue signaling about trans issues.

I learned about Swappa years ago and exclusively use them for buying and selling all my smartphones. I have no idea why they aren’t more popular, except for the fact that repair shop resellers use it too, but they are pretty easy to avoid.
