    Forever ashamed that the thing that broke my egg is the pig shit piss owl website for a podcast that sucks balls

    But yeah fr, this website and the people on it have been really helpful in helping me become trans, I'm grateful to you all <3 trans-heart

    Especially since there aren't even that many spaces online for trans people at all. Thank you bear website.

      Yeah, feels like a ton of "leftist" spaces are weird about trans people, if not just outright transphobic. Meanwhile a lot of the spaces that are not specifically for trans people but are queer friendly tend to be super lib. Hexbear is basically the only place on the internet where I don't feel like I'm surrounded by chauvinists of some kind or another. It's great here.

    I personally main cis, but trans is a pretty good build so I’m happy we have a space to discuss optimisations for that here 🤗

    There's something about talking about being normal while making a main pun that makes me laugh. Like we're so online, how could we be normal?

    But for sure, don't mention it.

    It's hard to do otherwise when you're all so damn awesome

    Likewise, thank you to our cool trans comrades for being here and sticking through some of the rough patches we had early on. This site would be so worse off without you.

    We need a secure way to poll people, last poll said like 33% of the site is trans

        tbh true but we've also had an unusually high influx of trans people post federation that wouldnt be accounted for in the poll

          I'd be really curious to see the numbers now! I had an account here before I had one on Blahaj Lemmy, but I sure did spend more time there in general until they got gross about Hexbear and commies in general.
