"Transparency" would implode their brains, it's just too much of a word for them to even try to comprehend.

You're asking for someone to transcribe it for you?

[–] RobertOwnageJunior@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago

Ew, no that sounds gay. Is there a straightcriber in here?

I prefer the alternative gender for that profession, criptionist.

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

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

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?

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 8 points 2 years ago

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

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 66 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

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

[–] lars 25 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”

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?

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

Probably wouldn't want anything to do with a homeowner either...

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