Thanks to multitool (hereby christened Mein Tool) and moNkers, the NACA word cloud is raining Nazis.
Thanks for being my muse.卐One more makes it a trilogy.

Mein Tool and monkers. 'N', on the other hand, is welcome to join provided photographic evidence is forwarded of N in the same place, time, and plane of existence as moNkers.
The terrible two do have the same ability as any other guest to post in [The] Nerve.
This invite obvs. to be filed under As If.
I wasn't kidding about the cutting room floor:
If anyone is member material, it is me, by definition.
This 'administrator' can't even hold down a forum membership himself.
[Smiley genocide] don't you remember? Have you all got Covid brain?
He's not even a real vegetarian – he eats eggs.
He's just hungry for scraps of conversation with other than his tumbleweeds.
And of course,
I wouldn't want to belong to a club that would have me as a member anyway.
Winjim once said I was more interesting on my own than the entire NACA board. Or words to that effect. If I ever find the quote again I'll be sure to take another bow, assuming I got it right. (I could've sworn he used the word 'perspicacious'.)(On edit:
Found it. "Perspicacity". I'm still here, WJ. Having passed the test for taste, and gotten extra credit for discernment, you're welcome.)
The first is the best, but they're all worth [checks sums] 7.24 of your time.
The ultimate bunkerful of parodies
卐 I bow to the master.
Taking too bloody long to load?
The Economist, Who’s afraid of Judith Butler, the “godmother of queer theory”?
Best. Thread. Ever.
Aw shucks.
Oh, she meant this one:
Ignore this
The bar is low
The glasses many
Let me know
When drops the penny
And so it goeson and on and on and onAs a teacher I was asked by smirking seven year olds, 'Are you a girl or a boy, Miss?', to which I replied, 'Neither.' but the real question is how to make this small ask irrelevant.
Sounds like a
missed opportunity (geddit?) to say girls can be however they want to be.
It is unfair to demand feminists embrace declared faith in inner gender difference but not expect trans-people to embrace that some people validly don't take it as axiomatic truth. As long as we are respectful it can be left undecided.
With respect – FFTL really is trying to elevate the
saggier parts of the discussion – make up your mind...
misgendering is not helpful or necessary
Are feelings more important than facts, and if so, whose
feelings trump whose? There is no stable middle ground in TWAW.
Once more, and nothing personal: who are you that I should have to lie. Even in these days of our own individual truths, honesty remains the best policy.
If and when [AuroraSaab] wants to talk about real issues that matter to women (rather than a confected threarlt whipped up by weirdo cultists and co-opted by populist politicians) I'll be here.
Translation: "If you want to do feminism right, ask someone with balls."
I am so used to reading posts that are based on demonising people...
If you're going to point fingers, at least point them in the right direction.
Schools frequently know better than some parents.
Translation: most parents aren't having it, so we need an arm of the state to push this ideology.
Somehow the kind of pish that Andy goes wild for cropped up on my social media earlier...
If Mini-Me is getting fed these sorts of low grade memes (a quick search shows the source was satire, though not very good satire), it says something about his browsing habits. Whatever else you may think of the things CXRAndy shares, they seldom plumb these depths.
Copy of tweet: "put a fried egg on my croque monsieur to make it a croque madame and now jk rowling is outside my house yelling"
Angry old man/get off my lawn gets a genderist reboot. The tweet author (I did my due diligence and visited his timeline) raised a few smiles here; pity he's on the wrong side of reality.
It's been a joy to watch
JK fully unfurl.All I'm getting from these recent interactions is that I can carry on being non binary and living by my own tenets, which involve not being a prick about others choices.
Join the temple.
Ave Satanus.
The devil is in the details, one small one being that YOU'RE NOT AFFECTED, ya big galoot.* Easy to nobly accept "others choices" then, isn't it.
*Exactly the right word. - Ed.However anybody spins the gender identity thing it always comes down to sexist stereotypes in the end.
At the risk of cultural appropriation, true dat.
They make boxes, then split those boxes into more and more boxes, and then they decide which box they like best (and decide they belong into the opressedest and queerest little box). They really don't realise how insanely rigid and conservative they are. It's genuinely sad, until I read about them claiming a woman with short hair and casual clothes is "appropriating NB culture" (that was cringey to type) then all my sympathy for them goes down the drain.

Here there be feminists.
What a life. Spending your day following the Tool round trying to dry hump his leg.
Unironically shifting into 3rd person is a cry for help. He clearly loves being a big dick in a small pond, his leg constantly tingling with anticipation. If it wasn't for forums, he'd find a hole outside to stick it in as bait for lonely badgers.
...members of his cult...
The last I checked, I was not a member of any cult.
Haven't you heard? It's cults all the way down.
Despite hundreds of posts you've yet to coherently explain why we should treat some men differently to other men, other than they say so.
Trans women with [an official piece of paper] are women. You are not a woman since you deny your gender identity.
Another gem from Operation Let Them Speak: man wins best womaning contest.
(Not the clip you were expecting?)
I have no gender identity. It's a metaphysical belief to which I don't subscribe...
I bet you've, at some point, worn a skirt, and I don't think it was your ovaries, tit's and fanny that compelled you to do it. It was your mind. It's not a physical event, it is a mental one based on identity.
You don't have to have a dick to talk like one, but it helps. Still, we must stop all the clocks, because he has a point. It doesn't legitimise the demand to elevate gender identity over sex, but absolute denial of said identity has always been where AS is weakest.
["Right-wing" ad nauseam]
There's a word for thinking if you're not buying everything the
left wing is selling, there's only one other thing you can be; that there are only two states of being. I can't think what it is.
Oh my word, you really are an actual idiot fruitloops.
This long-running match hasn't exactly been Borg vs McEnroe (a very dated reference I'm never relinquishing); more like the Ice Woman* vs a couple of hotheads who think they're pros because they watched a game on TV, got knocked out cold by the first ace (imagine the ball bopping into one head then rebounding off the other), and dreaming they've been winning ever since.*
*I'm aware
Mac was actually correct, unlike the stooges in question.
Belief is not the same as knowledge or fact.
Meinsplainin'.
A woman saying nein drives a certain type of man bonkers. They can't handle it without a great deal of spittle flying.
