anyway i have no interest in hanging around a community where people are fine with transphobia and sexual abuse. and i do consider speculating about my "holes" as a trans person to be a sexual violation. fuck anyone in charge here

panda @sleepyredpanda.bsky.social · 27/05/2025
not even a single time. in fact, i told him to go away. and yet now he's talking about "whatever holes i possess" do i need to point out how speculating about what holes a nonbinary person has is fucking disgusting? why is this transphobia no big deal??? this report will probably do nothing, too

"relentlessly pinging me" you saw the ENTIRETY of our interactions. i replied to this man to tell him to fuck off and then to tell him he misgendered me. THAT IS IT i have no fucking idea what he's talking about, accusing me of being a bigot. against who??? i did not invite this man to reply

panda @sleepyredpanda.bsky.social · 27/05/2025
ok yup i'm done here and never coming back to this site. even after being misgendered (and reporting it, which did absolutely nothing) this fucking asshole comes back and harasses me more. clearly no one at bluesky cares
the same man from my quotes came to my post and started yelling at me again (even though i did not mention him). he wrote: 

"Let me explain something to you, honey sweetie little fragile baby. 

YOU want to reserve the right to be a bigot. 

I want no bigots to feel safe. 

It’s that simple. Shove your bigotry up whatever hole/s you possess.

Please note: I’m replying at your invitation, because after relentlessly pinging me your ego couldn’t stand being told to go away, and you posted screenshots and lied about your interactions. 

So here we are, and you’re being told off in the exact manner you deserve. Examine your own heart."

they lose their shit over the most basic requests: calling people by their pronouns, acknowledging their gender, affirming trans people exist. the reason is clear. they go after sports and HRT for minors bc transphobes are organized. but their vision is that none of us be allowed to exist. period

panda @sleepyredpanda.bsky.social · 26/05/2025
it's actually simpler than that. they think trans people don't exist, that it's all a delusion. because they don't approve of trans people (or gay ppl, etc), they think we should be shunned until we are pushed out of the public eye or die. that's why they want to deny us treatment or affirmation

in particular, if i want to report a post to a list, the context is essential, so i can't block the other person

panda @sleepyredpanda.bsky.social · 26/05/2025
i've been repeatedly misgendered and harassed by people like this. and they are convinced that the site empowers them to do so because they can harass someone to the point of distress, at which care the block will hide all evidence of their abusive behavior. it's so fucked up and victim blaming

panda @sleepyredpanda.bsky.social · 26/05/2025
block is bullshit in my opinion. it means that MY posts are also hidden, which i often don't want. and they hide the evidence that this person was harassing me ultimately, it's created a culture where people think they're entitled to abuse and harass you as much as they want bc you aren't blocking

i NEVER initiated a conversation with this man. instead, the entirety of our interactions have been him coming into my mentions to harass me (hilariously, insisting *i* am making him reply to me!) and refusing to leave me alone when i told him to fuck off why don't i just block him? bc the nuclear
molly posted: "This dude is charging people for posting exhausting comments and yet he’s posted about 50 exhausting comments in my me mentions and so he owes like a mortgage payment to the PCRF I think" and quoted matt kent (he has since removed the quote)

i replied: "he seems insufferable wow"

matt kent replied: "Make sure to upload a receipt and tag me, so I can match your donation. Thanks in advance!" and quoted his earlier post saying 
"I am imposing a mandatory $15 donation to the Palestinian Children’s Fund before writing an exhausting comment."in response to the other screenshot, i said:
"hey asshole i responded to molly not you. you weren't invited to this conversation. fuck off"

to which he said: "You know where the block button is."

i am sick of how many people on this site are abusive, transphobic assholes and how no one seems to care. i'm so close to quitting this site right now notice how i told him that he misgendered me and instead of apologizing, he calls me "hon" condescendingly? i'm not an idiot: "hon" is misgendering
i quoted matt kent @ https://bsky.app/profile/pharmkent.bsky.social because he was harassing me. his post reads "You know where the block button is." 

i quoted and said: "it's actually ridiculous how many people on this website will insert themself into your conversations with other people, start harassing you, and then go "you can just block me" when you tell them to fuck off. i shouldn't have to block people bc they can't understand basic boundaries. abusive shit" 

he replied: "OoooOooooOoo “boundaries” she says while pinging me so I’ll get a notification."in response to the first screenshot, i said: "oh and now you're misgendering me? you're a real piece of shit. i hope you have the day you deserve"

he replied: "All you had to was stop tagging me in posts and you wouldn’t have to see or hear from me. 

But you couldn’t resist. Sorry hon, block me or leave me alone."

gf and i always wear masks when we're out, but hoped we'd be ok around family... no luck. i've been warning people since, and managed to persuade a very sick online friend to take a covid test. it turned out she had it, too. i think numbers are much worse than we know bc people aren't testing

my gf and i visited her family at the end of april and got very sick with covid. it seems ridiculously contagious--not only did every single family member get covid, but our roommate got it from us within 1.5 days after we returned home. it was my first time with confirmed covid and i was so sick

btw if you're so petrified of doing a bad job that you can't even start, then what you need isn't advice on how to make comics. you need to learn to embrace being messy and bad at things and being okay with that because it's necessary, and actually it's GOOD. being messy is WONDERFUL

see this was my question. i feel like usually when people are forced to work, they aren't given a nice 8 hour day? also, would a sophisticated scam operation stumble on aspects as basic as time zones and IP addresses? "it's noon in moscow" became way too common an attack for them to be unaware...

I see your chatGPT is my best friend and raise you chatGPT is my child's emergency medical provider
An r/chatGPT post from like 4 days ago titled ChatGPT helped me during my son's emergency 

My 3yo son went into febrile seizure. For anyone who never experienced it-it's a big shock- his eyes started to move around and his body started to change color (blue-ish lips, red arms), he went rigid and started to shake.

Watching your baby in this state can cause anyone to panic.

Unfortunately his first seizure happened 2 years ago, so I was aware of what was happening. Still, I was told by the doctors that after he becomes 2 years old it should not happen again.

So while I did realise that it was a seizure, I was confused that he had it at this age. I decided to talk to ChatGPT and tell it what was happening. At first it tried to reassure me to keep his temperature down, but when I told it that he is still shaking, GPT told me to call the ambulance and time the seizure. I did that and while the ambulance was coming, my son went into full seizure, his head moved backwards, his arms locked and he clanked his teeth. When EMTs arrived, they asked me how long the seizure lasted and when it started etc.

Thanks to the conversation with GPT I was able to give them all information they needed because I checked the log and keep relatively calm because I was prepared for the questions.

I'm sorry if I sound robotic, we came back an hour ago from the hospital and I am half asleep. Just wanted to share a positive experience with using GPT

it's very cool that even as the US and UK governments are working hard to deprive trans people of any rights or access to medical treatment, so many people who clearly consider themselves moral and good are aligning themselves with a bigot seriously fuck all of those people

maybe the story will explain it, idk. but for now i just can't buy that the escoffier who yelled at a child bc she was too awkward to openly send home food to his family would ALSO have emotional intelligence after being betrayed and publicly humiliated. i don't think one person would do both

i don't mind her being short-tempered and a bit rude; we don't have a lot of characters like that, especially women. but i think it's jarring that upon learning about monica sabotaging her, she's all "aww don't worry about it, i forgive you" even though that's a situation where anger is justified

i heard she's scottish i think? her real accent creeps in unintentionally a lot. i wish they'd just let the VAs use their natural accents instead of this 😬 i just finished part 2 of 3 in her quest so i am withholding judgment for now. but i feel like her characterization isn't quite hitting for me?

i haven't talked enough about games recently (bc my health issues have been bad and it's hard to relax and play) but i really liked how they introduced escoffier's story quest. good use of NPCs and a familiar character to hook you unfortunately, escoffier's american accent is atrocious. oof

nice was probably not the right word. the first part focused on helene is tragic, devastating, raw. serious credit to the journalist who covered this and had such compassion as she interviewed people who were grieving and traumatized

panda @sleepyredpanda.bsky.social · 25/05/2025
highly recommend watching this to get a nice view of helene but also how bad our response to other hurricanes has been. it's incredibly grim climate change is not a focus in this one, but it's only an hour-long documentary so i don't hold it against them too much

panda @sleepyredpanda.bsky.social · 25/05/2025
even with devastating storms that lead to death and mass destruction every year, almost nothing is being done to change things. lobbyists and developers resist improving building codes. the government won't update flood maps. people's homes and lives are at risk from climate change and no one cares
