I love this movie. It’s probably one of my favorite schlock fantasy movies. The casting was way better than it had any right to be - Hugh Jackman, sure, but Kate Beckinsale? Well, I guess she was fresh off Underworld, so she was still in that headspace. And Richard Roxburgh doing the perfect amount of scene-chewing for the villain… introducing himself properly as Vladislaus Draculea… and the opening scene, shot just like a 1920s Universal monster movie! I legitimately think it’s the closest we’ll ever get to a live action Castlevania. I could go on, but I’ll spare you. Might be time for a rewatch.

Nobody else was doing it, so I looked it up. Artist is YanaFian and this is apparently their OC named Yana.

For the out-of-the-loop: this is a reference to a Breaking Bad comic with Gus Fring and Walter White. I suppose it could be looked at as a commentary about how businesses shamelessly pander to LBGTQ+ folks during the month of June, but at its heart it’s really just a dumb shitpost that was drawn exponentially better than the source material.

For real though, I love how the artist attempted to emulate Gus’s smirk and it makes Maru look demented. No, really. I love that. 10/10, no notes.

That’s interesting! I’ve only ever seen it as slang for boy and/or butt pussy. I will fully admit that you’re correct in that these terms tend to fall along the heteronormative gender divide and I try to keep these explanations as gender neutral as possible (though there’s only so much you can do with “boy pussy”), so I’ll keep that in mind for the future. Thank you.

Disclaimer: this isn’t really my thing, so I have kind of an outsider’s understanding and may be incorrect. I’m sure someone will be happy to correct me if I’m wrong about something.

Ok, let’s break this down a little. First of all: boy pussy, or “bussy”, is not an actual biological orifice that exists, as you may have guessed. Rather, it’s a slang term meant to convey the metaphorical sexual concept that a male asshole - usually belonging to a sub/bottom or twink (but the term can apply to anyone willing) - has become an erogenous zone, possibly (depending on usage in dirty talk) that it will never again fulfill any other purpose.

Naturally, since it is a BOY pussy, it’s not something that you would find on a woman, so the man in this story, while having sex with his wife, let slip that he was fantasizing about having sex with someone else. This does not seem to be her issue, as she mentions that they are at least somewhat in an open relationship and so him having sex with another woman would not be out of the question. However, she seems to take offense at the idea that he is fantasizing about having sex with another man, which is not something they would presumably have discussed prior to opening their relationship.

Hope this clears things up a little. Cheers!

My paternal grandmother was the opposite of this - apparently she really wanted a grandparent nickname and didn’t care what it was. So there’s, IDK, 2 year old me running around and I saw she was wearing big old sunglasses, and I said, “Cool Dude!” And it stuck.

Miss you, Dude.

Legit the first song I thought of. Hello, fellow old.

Do you remember the last time you were talking to someone for more than a couple minutes? Maybe they were explaining something to you, or telling you a story. You might try to remember what they said later - you can’t hear it, but your brain kind of recreates the sensation of having been spoken to even though your ears aren’t receiving those sounds.

That’s what having an inner voice is like (to me, anyway) - it’s remembering a conversation that you never actually had.

No, parrots are BIRDS. Honest mistake.

No, that’s potage. You’re thinking of a mixture, often of incongruous elements.

I had originally written that, but I went and looked it up and it actually is “this”. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It’s also an autism thing, though there is some considerable overlap there so you could be forgiven for not knowing.

At the bottom of the article, under “Can I opt out?”:

If you choose to opt out, please note that on March 5th, 2024 you will lose access to Cross Progression, My Rewards, and RED Forums, and all connected data will be permanently deleted.

Again, it’s not a deal breaker for me, and not nearly as bad as needing an account to even play, but I felt it was at least worth bringing up.

Where is @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world? I guess I’ll have to be the change I want to see.

it’s optional for some cosmetic rewards

And also CrossPlay…

Don’t get me wrong, it’s better than requiring the account to play the game, but it’s still kind of a disappointing move.

You sound like you’d be a blast to hang out with. I mean that genuinely.

But she was a nag, so on the list she goes.
